Nice one Kevin! Woot woot!

[KevinZ]

Thanks Eagles songs are great very much appreciated you listening in and commenting. Even though the unplugged campfire rendition doesn’t have the dynamics the original had.

First video I have watched and it was AMAZING! How long have you been playing to achieve your proficiency with that song? And your voice was perfect! Marked “Favorite”!

Thanks so very much for listening in and commenting. Very much appreciated so glad you enjoyed the unplugged campfire rendition. How long I have been playing is long story I started many years ago. But only on my own and work and life injuries got in the way so I never got very skilled.

Then I semi retired healed my injuries and picked the guitar up again this time I joined TAC and other guitar teaching sites. With more time to practice and play slowly started improving. 2 things changed the progress finger picking strum patterns all in time constantly keep the time in the head tap a foot or muting. So I learned penatonics and scales but forgot some because I couldn’t apply them to songs and sing at the same time. 4 years now starting to change that. Hope your journey is as rewarding as mine has been.

Good job. Yes, the lyrics seem to get as hard as the music on some of these songs. I’m still trying to get all the Hotel California lyrics down on our benchmark song.

Thanks for listening in and commenting. Very much appreciated so glad you enjoyed the unplugged campfire version. My hats off to you learning memorizing the lyrics is so much harder than just reading off a screen or Karaoke background. But it is so good for your brain when I 1st started memorizing it took many many takes to get something worth posting. It was so frustrating but now about 3 times on a new song and I got it with about 85% recall after a long time elapsed. Working that mind is absolutely key for me. Alzheimer’s runs in my family bigtime I intend to fight it I have seen what happens if you don’t. Music is my tool to make it happen. So kudos to you for choosing to memorize it will pay off.

Great performance @KevinZ (CLAP, CLAP, CLAP)! Really enjoyed watching and listening – keep it up my friend.

[KevinZ]

Well Bill thanks so very much for listening in and commenting. Very much appreciated so glad you enjoyed the unplugged campfire rendition. But most of all thanks for the support in this journey it counts and I thought you should know that.

I never thought to change the name in YouTube ht are examples onsomehing and how you would change it? S usual, Greg job. I wish I could do a hybrid pick/ strum lik you. I’ve tried fingerpicking, but the tremors in my hand make it nrly impossible.

Thanks so very much for listening in and commenting. Very much appreciated so glad you enjoyed the unplugged campfire rendition. The violet ray I told you about was the only thing that brought my hands back to where I could get enough finger pressure without pain to play guitar again. Its an out of the box solution kind of like the title name change. It worked so well I dont use it anymore natural things work this time around. The main thing with finger picking to me is the count 1 T 2Index 3middle 4ring sometimes pinch on the 1 or the 4 the strum I listen to the original break it down to strum count patterns then research online for suggested patterns for songs DDD DU 123 4and U are upstrums. What I found was there are so many strum patterns for different songs that I never thought about. Hope that helps you and I will help you with your hands if I can. You have always been supportive and deserve it. Remember my 41years of electrical and Instrumentation in the power industry has always made me think outside the box to get things done.
