    There is a finger stretch 5 day challenge, that has good warmups to get your fingers stretched out. It sure isn’t an instant fix but it helps if you do them often.

    Nice job! I knew about the Dead version of the song but didn’t know it was a cover. Did I hear some hammer-ons going on? Sweet

    Nobody quite knows yet. I hear there were physical golden picks at the in-person Acoustic Life Festivals. As far as the site goes, no one knows so far

    You can do the 30 days to play at your pace.
    The daily exercises are there to give you something new to spend 10 minutes on every day. I do the 10 minute exercise every day then work on a skills course after that.

    I generally get a lot of buzzing when I am tired. I try to fix it often by gripping harder. I do that without thinking. For me it generally happens because I am being lazy about finger placement so I tend to make a bad thing worse when I do it…🤓

    I found the show helpful too!

    April 14, 2021 at 5:27 pm in reply to: Thoughts on guitar journey plateaus… via helping my Daughter

    The funny thing is… She was assigned Ocean Eyes by Billie Eilish for a school assignment. It took all of 5 minutes to get the strumming of the song down, because it is slow and is basically C G Em a lot with a G thrown in here and there. All single strums. She is working on timing but is bored with it…

    It ended up being a stretch goal for me to make a finger style song out of it, picking out the melodies I can’t sing. It went from a 5 minute project to get her done, to a stretch goal for me… 1/2 hour in and I am only 4 bars into the song, and this is the easy part… Think I am going to make it my 1 pop song for my 90. It will have me doing things and thinking in ways that I don’t right now about music and guitar.
