You know you can rent guitars in Spain (at least in Barcelona). Get you IPhone with tony’s site as an easy download. You can do this. Nice place to have an anniversary.

Great job @albert_d. That’s a long streak.

There are a lot of courses. When I started last year I listed all the courses available and there are more now than there used to be. Enjoy playing the 2nd page.

Excellent performance. Great strumming

@Loraine you are so funny. I got a good laugh with your answer. But, seriously, I understand the issues that can happen from playing too much. But, as of right now, I just would rather play and learn than just sit back because I’m afraid of a medical issue (glad you mentioned tennis elbow and tendinitis thou). I know I have some issues with my fretting arm so I’ll watch out and I warm up. But, the issues were with me before I picked up the guitar.
I was using a site called Jerrysguitarbar before joining TAC (I still use it). They have a lot of free songs. If you go to My Profile page, then the “About Me” section. I have listed sites that I use. If I find a song I like, I print it and have the music sheet in a loose leaf folder. I have a heck of a time with strumming. So I usually look for a song that is finger picked. Strumming only looks easy, but, its hard for me.
I want to be an inspiration to my grandchild and great grandchildren and maybe the kids across the street. You know, I want them to think…. If that gray haired granny can do it, I can 😉

Thanks @KevinZ . It just takes time and patience. 🙂

Thank you very much. This is actually my warm up song. Gets the fingers moving 🙂

Thank you very much. I think I can manage 1 a month. I was watching a video on a kid that made a video of his improvement every 6 months. He said that by posting the video it actually made him better because he wanted it to be it’s best when it went up. It made sense to me, so that will be my new plan. 🙂

I’ve been doing it for a couple of months now and no issues. As long as I can get at least 1/2 hour in , starting in the morning. I usually don’t have a problem getting the rest in before evening. Having songs all ready picked, sheet music printed is a big help. I can jump right in. I have a couple of warm up songs that I usually start off with.

Probably not a bad Idea. Next time I’m at the guitar store I’ll ask how much maintenance is. I do have a small travel guitar that I rarely use. I totally loosened the strings and put it back in it’s case.

@Lee_W , put your guitar where it is easy to get to. Do you relax in the living room in the evening? have a guitar in there. I found that if the guitar is easy to pick up, I’ll do just that and get a few minutes in.

Thanks @Bill_Brown . I was going back and forth if I was going to stay another year. Glad I decided to stay.
-
I do to. This has got to be a new course. I don’t remember seeing it before?
-
Thanks @Loriane , I have officially decided to stay another year. I was working on recording my self playing a song and I messed it up every time. I finally got one recording and i’ll get it uploaded sometime this week. Thanks again, you have been a big inspiration to me 🙂

THanks @Marty69 , now that I have decided to stay another year I’m going to work a little harder at my playing. I’m not ready for a VOM. But, I did record a song and was going to post. That was hard enough to do. My leg was bouncing during my playing. ha ha ha…..
