Loved hearing this a second time. No one’s at the end of their guitar journey but you’re at a pretty sweet station that’s way along the track for sure.

Thanks so much @cadgirl @bugmeist @jonathandavid and @kevinz for listening. It is tricky to get on the forums at the moment while looking after Lyra but wanted to post something quick as it has been a while.

Love it @Marty69 . You do some great arrangements of songs you just wouldn’t expect to hear on acoustic. 🤟😎🎸

[Moonhare]

Thank you Kurt. I’m getting to the stage where I can start to insert some techniques in.

[Moonhare]

Thanks. A bit better than the other night.

[Moonhare]

Lyra is doing really well thanks. Still 5 weeks to go but she’s on the mend. Writing a tune now called Limpy Lyra! 🤟😎🎸

[Moonhare]

Thanks for that. Lyra is doing well and in a week the cone can come off. Huzzah! I was really pleased with this tune. It developed gradually over two weeks. A Youtube tutorial? 🤔

[Moonhare]

Thanks. Yes it will be a bit of a journey this next few weeks but worth it for Lyra who will be back to normal. Glad you liked the piece. Still struggling to barre chord so I’m jyst using every trick in my (small) book to get to the music I want to play. Long may all of ‘us’ continue to improve. 🤟😎🎸

[Moonhare]

You got ‘Lyra’ spot on and she is doing so well. It has meant getting onto TAC has been tricky so I’ve been playing and writing more on my own, hence this piece. Hope to get back on the forums properly once she has recovered. 🤟😎🎸

[Moonhare]

Thanks on all counts. Lyra’s leg is healing well now but still 6 weeks of keeping her safe. So far so good on the guitar. I’m more comfortable with finger style so this plays to my strengths but I have bought a brass slide after one of Tony’s recommendations on his Acoustic Tuesday show a couple of weeks back and am going to give that a proper go now.

[Moonhare]

Thanks. Before her accident Lyra would come into the studio and wag her tail whenever I played certain pieces of music! I considered posting the VOM of Wood Mouse Wood but I knew I could play it better. Really enjoyed your performances on Thursday. You are a total natural and time willing, I hope to see you at some more.

[Moonhare]

Thanks @mrfredsporty – Lyra making a good recovery. I’m not sure how ‘advanced’ I am on guitar after 14 months of TAC but for me I’m just making the most of simple techniques and chord combinations to create something I’d like to listen to. 🤟😎🎸

[Moonhare]

Thanks a lot. I’m happy withthe arrangement. I might record a version with one of my many vocalist friends at some stage as I know they’d really do it justice.

[Moonhare]

Thanks Ted. They are playing a festival just up the road from me in July but at £85 for a day ticket I think I’ll have to settle for just seeing them once this year!

[Moonhare]

Thanks David. Yes they are a superb band and this song really resonates with so many people.
