    At least it is not autobiographical right. About a friend? Shows some songwriting development being reenforced by fretboard knowledge and chord skills. Way to go.

    We are standing by you. Quicker on the chord changes for sure. Some day you throw in a break!

    I have trouble getting a looper to start and stop the phrase in rhythm. I need more practice.

    Welcome back. You may find Tony is tying the 5 skills into songs more now than in the past and the quarterly workshops have been incorporated into the daily challenges rather than a stand alone session. Fretboard Wizard has been reworked and is a real jewel. Happy to have you back and a part of the guitar geek community.

    I love the bass runs in this song. And perhaps you exercised discretion in not hitching up the falsetto. Those versions are best saved for times when there is “ liquid” encouragement! Good job!

    October 15, 2023 at 10:42 am in reply to: 10 minutes a day? How does that work

    I love your enthusiasm and dedication to your guitar journey. My wife is an “Enneagram 1”. She likes rules and clarity as to what “counts”. So the good thing about TAC is you define what “counts”. I personally define 10 minutes as practice not including the video. I have over 1600 playing sessions as of now. Some (many) have been just 10 minutes but often they are [much] longer. After 10 minutes I ignore the clock and play as my time or emotions allow. Usually the time beyond 10 minutes is working a song or technique related to my quarterly goals. This time of year it is related to starting to reviewing a Holiday playlist to play for the family and friends.

    This a long reply but the short answer is define what works works for you and have fun.

    Good job and another example of the 1,6m,4,5 chord progression that Tony is teaching with Wagon Wheel. You look like you are having fun. I hope you play it for your Baby and she gives you a Double Shot.

    I love it when a lot of stringed instruments are jamming. You get the resonating strings and instruments from all that acoustics and your heart starts vibrating along too. This is a favorite two stepping song for us in Texas.
