Why I'm Here

I took half a dozen years of piano when I was little, and as part of the school music program learned to play string bass and bass guitar. Always wanted to learn regular (non-bass) guitar, and how that I’m retired I’m focusing on 3 things: riding bikes, re-learning piano, and of course learning guitar.

I’m recently retired after 38 years at a large technology company. I am married and have 2 kids I raised, and another 2 as each of them have married wonderful people. Really enjoying retirement.

City

It is something I've wanted to do since I was a kid and first watched the Beatles on Ed Sullivan. But since my older brother claimed the sax, and my parents used their spare money to buy him instruments, I took up a set of related instruments that the school owned: sousaphone for marching band, string bass for concert band and orchestra, and bass guitar for the jazz band.

Now that I'm retired, I'm getting back to that childhood dream of learning the guitar. I'm really excited!

My Guitar Goal

What I'm Focused On Now

To keep working at it and see continued improvement.

My Guitar Routine

This is How I TAC

Perfect week: do each daily challenge for 10 – 15 minutes, and play around a little, focusing especially on improving the transition from one chord to another.
