Reply To: First TACiversary, mixed results

“The skills I learned in FW, together with some ear training to recognize intervals, major/minor tonality etc., have taken me to a new level of musicality. TAC is not a one-stop shop. Ear training plus some additional theory are coming from a variety of other sources. Perhaps the most valuable lesson I have learned over time is that all this information sinks in over a a long period. In the background, a chain reaction is occurring – imperceptibly at first, until it all erupts like a dropped beer can!

Have fun!”

Thanks for the last bit of advice (and all the others too). I didn’t understand most of the chord theory but I’ll revisit your posts after completing FBW. It’s good to know that TAC is not a one-stop shop. I always feel mildly guilty when studying other guitar video lessons.

And I greatly enjoyed the two videos you shared. Your original song was amazing and truly had that Celtic sound. The tin whistle version was great too. Your version of “Wild Rover” also was excellent. Nothing wrong with your voice!

And the beer can eruption gives me something to look forward to. Need to keep remembering to enjoy the guitar journey.

Thanks for the info on the old community–did not know it was still accessible. I miss the badges and counts.

I’m just getting back into it. I was without my guitar for 5 days while down in Norfolk, VA, helping my son move.
