@KevinZ , that was another spectacular performance my friend. I don’t know too much about Alan Jackson (other than Mercury Blues) but the way you played that song makes me want to listen to more of him. Thanks for posting, I really enjoyed watching and listening.

Hi @aprildemesme-com and welcome to TAC. Just so you know, I prefer to play full barre chords so there may be some bias in my response. Are you playing power chords with two fingers or three? Personally, I find two fingers a little uncomfortable and (for me) playing that way can lead to sloppiness. That’s why (for me) three fingers are more comfortable – index on the root, ring on the 5th and pinky on the octave – my entire fretting hand feels comfortable this way and all I have to do is “lock in” the shape and I have no problems with transitions – fret to fret or string to string.
But I’m sure as you continue to practice, things will come back to you as they used to be. Enjoy the journey and remember to have FUN along the way.

That’s right @puresterling-925gmail-com , baby steps – you have to learn to walk before you can run – so many have tried otherwise. I’m glad to hear that your taking it slow – that’s the way to do it – congrats! Always remember to TRUST THE PROCESS, you’ll be much better for it. Best of luck on your future journey.

Yes @Ron-A , besides the annoyance of doing the “human” thing, I’m also experiencing delays in going from screen to screen, lesson to lesson, confirmation of completing a lesson, and logging off – yes, logging off!

Quite wet here at this time – definitely not your type of weather LOL. Have a great Father’s Day @Philb !
