Why I'm Here

60 years old, just starting.  Had a guitar as a kid, but never progressed beyond a couple chords.  It was an inexpensive unit and painful to play.  Recently purchased a nice entry-level Martin (000Jr-10E) and am very happy with how it feels and plays.  Now I just need to learn how to play!

City

I've never studied guitar, or music before, but I recognize that practicing music opens part of your brain that is not accessed through conventional knowledge-based learning.  Music, in my opinion, involves both knowledge-based learning and "tacit-knowledge" (the ability to actually DO something) which involves both the mind and the body.

Ultimately hoping to increase my overall creativity through this work.  And,most importantly, it's very enjoyable!
