  • Today’s small win – metronome

    Posted by Sands on May 26, 2021 at 8:50 am

    After finally using Tony’s 90 day goal worksheet yesterday, today I started using my dusty little used metronome – aiming to start focusing consistently on timing and rhythm as part of all of my practice sessions (starting today). Today I used it with one of the Barre Chord skill sessions, the E Shape F chord test 😬 😄 Looking forward to the next Tuesday video – I believe he is going to be talking about using a metronome.

    Your right about next weeks Acoustic Tuesday. If I remember correctly he is going to make using the metronome fun. 🙂
    Hey @Earl where is the 90 day goal sheet? I don’t think i’ve ever seen it

    Earl, that’s a big win in my book. I’ve been trying to use the metronome for months, and sometimes it helps and other times it creates confusion for me.

    Nice win Earl!

    I’m really looking forward to next tuesdays episode. I’ve learned to love the metronome and use it everyday. I think somebody posted on here once can’t remember who to credit it was like having there own one armed drummer which made me laugh and stuck in my mind. For me it was a revaluation as I always thought I couldn’t play and strum along to songs because I had no rhythm which held me back from learning, something I now think of as a myth an inbuilt inert ability to play along to a song in time. Maybe some people pick it up more naturally but it’s a learnt skill. It started simple for me single quarter notes then built from there. I hope Tony has some more tips on Tuesday to take it further.

    That is a HUGE win!

    Metronome = Tiny little Drill Instructor. Tough and honest 😉

    I avoided using a metronome for oh 30 years or so. Once I got the hang of it, I really enjoy using it. It’s a great tool for gauging your progress . Start really slow and keep it simple. I promise, it gets better the more you do it. 😀
