I guess that is one of my challenges Skyman911. I find the TAC Daily lessons challenging still and only get through 10 minutes of the session and feel like I didn’t get it ie the chords, strumming patern…etc. Like you mentioned I feel further behind and not like I am making progress.

If I recap where I am not, I mean I can play A Major, A Minor, B Major, C Major, D Major, E Major, E minor, G Major.

I can play a few songs as well
1. Stand By Me – Ben E. King
2. Anything but you – Moldy Peaches

3. Knocking on Heavens Door – Bob Dylan

4. Wonderwall – Oasis

So maybe I am further than I think/feel?

Thank you JumpingJeff,

That makes sense that as you put in your 1,000 repetitions you would be able to play the next note/chord without thinking. It becomes muscle memory.

I would just love to be able to go to Ultimate Guitar Tabs and pick a 4 cords song and be able to play it. <b style=”font-family: inherit; font-size: inherit;”>

That makes sense MattTX_24,

[BrandonK]

Thank you so much for the additional answer,

I would assume Coldplay songs are pretty complicated to play?

Also, I hope I am closer than I think

[BrandonK]

Very true Acoustically_Challenged about it is better to at least be playing 10 to 30 minutes each day versus having the guitar in my case and not playing it at all.

[BrandonK]

Thanks for the reply Matt,

I guess I would love to be able to just pick up the guitar and play a song around a camp fire. I feel I am still so far away from that goal.

[BrandonK]

Thanks Jeff,

I was just hoping someone could help me better understand when to use them. It appears Tony goes through them so quickly which I did not understand how to use them.

[BrandonK]

Thanks everyone

That’s awesome Moose, when I did a search on Meetup for “Guitar” and “Guitar Beginners” these did not come up.

I will check them out.

I am also thinking about creating a Zoom session that whom ever would like to join can.

I’m in Toronto Ontario in Canada Moose

Hey Moose408,

For some reason when I do a search on meetup.com I am not able to find a meetup group in my local area for what I am searching.

I wondering if it is possible to do it through Zoom because there is an option with Zoom to change the audio setting for musicians.

[BrandonK]

Thanks DiscostewLA,

What did you search for in meetup.com? I ask because when I did a search in my local areas I wasn’t able to find a group.

Thanks,

Hi LangerKing, small world. Welcome fellow Canuck! Keep at it, I am now trying to learn barre cords which with my small fingers appears to be so difficult.
