So sorry to hear of how daunting this has been, and is. Keep going. Do what you have to for your health. Keep finding ways to enhance your life and bring you joy. Play when you can. May you be uplifted. Care and prayers for you Loraine.

Redford and Newman worked well together. Time has it’s way with all of us. A most excellent scene from a classic. It’s hard to believe it came out 56 years ago.

Very nice! It’s great you’re chronicling your journey so early on video and sharing. Your chords were clear; transitions looking good. Great voice (what I lack), to accompany on guitar. Well done; welcome!

Thanks Pete! That looks like a carbon fiber guitar. How do you like it. Nice to see you post.

Nice one Kevin; sounding good!

Barre chords are tough for everyone. One suggestion from looking at the video; turn the finger you are barring with on it’s side. I know that seems awkward, but press it down on it’s side and it will help hit the strings better for a solid bar. It still takes time, but that is one thing Tony talks about that helped me.

What petelanger said. I can play some songs, or a version of them, beginning to end. I didn’t usually learn those songs on TAC; but what I learned on TAC gave me the skills to learn those songs and play them.

@petelanger It is open G tuning; using bar chords on the 3rd, 5th, and 7th frets; making A#, C, and D chords I believe. A good open timing to get a little grit and bluesy sound. Thank you!
