    Welcome to TAC @MarcoPolo ! It’s a great program at TAC! never played before beginning here with Tony’s lessons. The beginning’s difficult, but keep,at it, and it does get easier with time.

    As for the song, thank you. I’ve since realixpzed my syncopation and,timing were,off. It sounds really awesome now. I’ll have to oar the corrected one.

    Let me know if you have any questions or comments. Good luck and have fun!

      I really appreciate it @Joyfinder . I love this song, and I’ve come to play it a lot now. I’m going to a Jam on Sunday with a group I’ve never met before, and this is one of the songs I’m taking with.

        t is awesome you are going to a jam. I have never played with anyone. A year ago I tried a few lessons with a teacher, but although I could play the piece he gave me at home, it was like my brain fell out of my ear in his lesson. He wasn’t the best of teachers I suspect and I quickly started to dread my guitar which I had loved and played every day before. I realized I was doing better with online lessons. There is a jam in my little country community but it is one day a week at the fire hall and I keep promising myself I will go to it and check it out, but what happens is it is on a day that I work and if I remember I’m so tired I haven’t gone. I don’t think I can get better if I don’t at the very least start playing steadily with a backing track. How long have you been playing? What happens at your jam? Do you feel nervous there? Inquiring minds want to know. haha. Have a great time.

    Nice job! You have quite a song list you have played over the last couple of years here. It’s great to read you are going to meet and play with others.
