Contact support, they should be able to make that happen. There’s a chat icon on the home screen or else message support@tonypolecastro.com.

Vaguely have a memory of this. I think there are actually fewer than 30 sessions in the 30 days to play. I know I got through it in about 20 days, there were no barriers, nothing keeping you from starting the next lesson so I would just advance when I wanted to (unlike in the daily challenges where you can’t go forward unless you have a link).

Don’t let a down week in TAC get to you @SCGobbler ! Learning guitar is a marathon, not a sprint! Last year when this challenge came around, I was new having started in July before and I hardly touched the content. A year later I’m totally having a blast with it! Not that I have got it down but I’ve learned so many parts and just lapping it up. There will be weeks where your opportunity to TAC is limited. That’s fine, try to show up for a bit here and there and attempt a blurb here and there. That’s all I did for the first several months. Growth will come slowly and in spurts. All of sudden you’ll be blown away by what you just did!

Please tell me you’re not using standard tuning!
Is it drop D? I’m looking at your fretting hand and I’m going: “No way”. I’m not seeing power chords, just curious!
Nice job though, just the right amount of aggression for a good blues song! 🙂

So sorry for all the uncertainty, pain, stress and surgeries you have had to go through. Praying for a full healing @Loraine!

Such a nice wholesome Beatles tune! Not flashy, just Paul! He wrote this about Linda Eastman before they were married! She loved getting lost in the English countryside, knowing eventually there would be a sign saying “London” (40 years before GPS navigation was common).
Thanks for posting!
The official video is very touching.

These past 2 weeks have been great! I’m loving the blues licks we’re doing right now. The perfect follow up to “Ain’t No Sunshine”! Tony is a genius!

Come to think of it I think I saw the shovel years ago and forgotten. I didn’t know it was the same guy.

His technique is fabulous and OH what a guitar, that tone is to die for!
He gave me some ideas though for the song, a little more use of the fretting hand thumb for example.

@Marisa I’ve seen quite a few videos of you on the stage, that makes you a performer and a very good one! 🙂

Thanks for the explanation, I get it now…where the bone should be! Ouch!
@Loraine, for opening jars, if you don’t have this I suggest getting one. Only a $10 Amazon purchase. We had one at are previous house and after moving we started missing it immediately and had to buy it again. This should allow you to open most jars with one hand.
Get someone to mount it under a kitchen cabinet for you!

@Marisa is a performer @DanTheMan . But that does raise the question, when should one begin to play standing if the goal is to be able to play while standing? Maybe we should do part of our daily routine while standing as beginners. I don’t know the answer.

Lifetime costs $599, call it $600. You could have bought lifetime when you signed up for that price. But most people wouldn’t do that, because they don’t know what it’s going to be like before they have tried it for a while. TAC will pretend like you were buying lifetime instead of an annual membership by refunding you the cost of said annual fee. So on the one hand you could say you are buying lifetime at a discounted rate of ~$400 after the first year at $200. But I see it more like it is. You don’t have to wait until the end of year 1, you can do it whenever and it’s simply a never-ending membership. I don’t think you have to worry about the website ever being discontinued, Mr. Polecastro is a recording artist and has been teaching guitar for a long time, he’s worth tens of millions.

@PaulabMoore exactly!

I know what you mean. There are days you just aren’t feelin’ it! Thankfully I’m able to pick up my guitar several times a day, cuz the first time isn’t always my best time.
