Chonkin' in and out of time for this one. Mostly wanted to get this posted so that I could move on to the next steps. I'll just say, should have used a metronome, but as with the playing of the song... I was rushing. Lol.

Lest we take ourselves too seriously. This was done while Mama wrapped our babe in scarlet covers and took him for a walk.
And yeah, that's probably somebody's national anthem somewhere... sure, let's go with that.

Lest we take ourselves too seriously. This was done while the Mama and the Little One were out on a walk, so, time to crank the amp! Lol!

All three progressions. Had a little 'spare' time during the holidays ( you can see our tree in the background! ) Enjoying playing with triads even though we've not covered that yet in this course. Enjoying creating tracks in Garageband, the effort being to try to record it all in one sitting.
This is pretty much me as I am and it would be valuable to receive feed back. I really don't know what I don't know, if you know what I mean. What are some next steps for my playing to continue to grow?

I do love to overcook things. This was as much a challenge of playing only power chords, which I am un-used to, but also about trying to film and get that track lined up. So, what the hey, let's have some fun!

Once told a friend, jokingly, that effects are fun but don't help me play any better. To which he responded, anything that gets you playing the guitar makes you play better. Love that dude.

Working the Down, Down, Down/up, Down/up pattern through this series of chords. This took me a few days to navigate not only the rhythm, but also to create as smooth of transitions as I can. Ran through the whole list of suggested pairs of chords one after the other.

Still struggling to get the index finger to correctly barre the strings. I can feel the way I pull the guitar into my body to make it more forceful. Would love some input and suggestions.

Noticed a number of ways to make improvements.

A tour of the space and gear that I use for the Guitargate Community.
Note: My explanation isn't clear, but during recording onto my phone I wear both pairs of earphones simultaneously so that there isn't any issues with latency. #GuitarHacks!
