@michelle-PSL , Congrats on your 1st year! Holy cow you have truly jumped in with both feet haven’t you? Admire your enthusiasm. Your 100 day challenge was brilliant and your improvement was impressive over the past year. You are gifted with a fine voice and your guitar playing is a great compliment to your vocals. Cheers to year 2 🥂

way cool @Niels ! I too found the backward roll didn’t work. So glad you posted this

@JT1 – first my sincere sympathy to you both. I would say you just need to be guided by your heart and it seems that it’s telling you that sharing a song with your wife is what is right. I agree with @albert_d choose something simple and meaningful to you. I’m certain that sharing a song as you promised you would will be a memory you can always treasure.

“and was thinking about what to do next. While thinking, I was dinking” – There’s gotta be a song there @Spiz !! nice application of your new lick!

Excellent @nelsonb12 ! I was camping in the Cypress Hills near Bald Butte a few weeks ago. I tried this tune recently but much simpler version than you’ve done here. I’m inspired to bring it up to your level Thanks!

Hi @Bob57 as @jumpinjeff asked options depend on what arm is immobilized. In either case I bet there are ways to continue although with a change of technique. For strumming picking an electric guitar maybe best as it doesn’t extend the joint much. You can try practicing strumming now using only your wrist – no shoulder movement same with finger picking. For the fretting hand it may help to stabilize the guitar so you don’t have to support the neck and go easy with the fretting. If playing is not possible it might be a great time to really work on listening and visualizing how different sounds are made.
Anyway stay engaged the break maybe a way to reignite your passion for guitar! 👍

Sincere condolence JoAnn. At the right time, may you find that playing your guitar brings positive connections to the spirit of your husband.

Well it was great to get together again with this group. It was quite gratifying – I had a number of comments on how much my playing has improved. Sometimes we don’t see how incremental improvements build up over time.
We set up a practice space in the basement of an old renovated newspaper building hence Cellar Dwellers😄

Now there’s a great idea! Great choice of song for that backdrop JJ ! I find playing that progression to be almost mesmerizing it’s so nice! Thanks for sharing this very cool moment! 👏

Hi @cadgirl actually headphones work best for VOMs because if you are are speaking or playing and using speakers there is often echo & distortion. Common courtesy is to remain muted unless you are speaking. There is no problem if anyone wants to just hangout and listen. You may be asked to introduce yourself by the host just so folks get to know you.
