It has been great to do this guitar journey with you. You are an example of how we can all improve by showing up and having fun and trying new things. best to you on your continuing journey and Happy Taciversary.

Which Hopefest is this? There are several but I assume it isn’t the one in Austin TX? Nice song and tribute to your parents.

What a lot of fun to be playing with people and making use of open G just to have a bunch of fun. I didn’t see the bass player but I could hear it. Nice to see your smile.

Double post?

I hope this song helped you get over it! Thanks for sharing.

Been there, done that. Will likely have to do it again. Thanks for the smile.

Steve, best of success on your continuing guitar journey. If the mentor approach doesn’t work out for you or if your habits erode, you can come back. I too am nostalgic occasionally for the early informality that lead us up to and through COVID with Acoustic, Tuesday, Noah, Levi and other off camera, podcast type support. I am growing into recording as new path for improvement in my journey. Having to watch myself and to play in time has added my TAC experience and made me better when I occasionally get to jam with others. Happy trails.

Great accomplishment. I took my Martin Backpacker to Europe to keep practice up. But I also would amend the rule to include Music Theory. A good theory book like one from James Shipway’s collection is a great travel companion. Congratulations. And your practice does show in your postings from a few years ago until now. Have fun.

What a wonderful experience! I am happy for you. I just came back from my annual trip to the Kerrville Folk Festival. The fun of such an event is more in the camp grounds playing with others than the music presented on stage. I lived in the Bay Meadows area of Jacksonville for three years and my son graduated from Wolfson High School. I got to play around the campfire with some dads from Troop 333. One is brought back to a true joy of music when you can play and share it with others. Not only does playing with others shines a light on those uncomfortable areas where we most desire improvement, it also affirms our progress. I’ve never felt shamed in a song circle. Everyone in the circle is just appreciating the opportunity to have others with which to share.

I am not familiar with Kenny Wayne Shepherd. Your chord changing has certainly speed up over time.

You’re the first person I know who has covered an AI song. Ha. The times they are a changing.

Nice little “Landside/Dust in the Wind” progression. Love the lyrics and sentiment. Thanks.

Nice strong performance. Welcome to TAC.

Congratulations. It has been fun to watch the seed germinate and grow into a recurring blooming music flower. It is aBIG WIN.

For the fun if it, I went back to see what was one of my first posts. Back then Tony would do a challenge that involved learning a song. One had to post your song and then TAC would mash them all together and present it. tAC doesn’t do that anymore but that was the back story. Recording and benchmarking does present you with a fun way to remind you of your progress.
