Dude, the strength of that kid will pull her thru. Oh yeah, your love for her will help, too. All the best.

Re: post videos of you playing

Re: post videos of you playing

I don't put all of my videos here, only the ones I don't mind tagging long-term (most of the stuff that goes on the message board gets buried within a day or so- these last pretty long, especially lately, since this thread has slowed down a lot)

Re: post videos of you playing

Just put this little promo out for my new record. Technically, it's me playing along with myself rather than me playing. :-) QEd4BfUbIdw This is really good stuff. Were you a Zappa fan? Because I'd guess that based on the style of a few of those short fills you play that there's a Zappa influence t...

An original piece.



Let's revive the "post videos of you playing" thread, started years ago by our late friend Tom Wallace.

Re: We've lost another friend.

Reading today's Hartford Courant while my students take a final exam, I saw an obituary with a photo and somehow I knew it was the friend whose passing is lamented in this thread. Right before the details for the funeral arrangements, the obituary reads, "Sean may the four winds blow you safely home...

Re: post videos of you playing

aZxyEf4v_dY Any heads in Connecticut who might be interested: I am planning on giving private guitar lessons this summer (a teacher has to do something productive during the summer). Feel free to PM me. As a long-time schoolteacher (mathematics, not music), I understand how to be patient and encour...

Re: post videos of you playing

Showing off my new guitar, a (rare) 73 Les Paul Standard. (Standards had to be specially ordered in the early 70's), the "off the rack" LP was a "Deluxe", which, oddly, was not as good as the "Standard" for a couple of reasons. Just like today the "Classic", "Traditional", "Studio Pro", etc, are not...

I'm saddened to read about this loss. I enjoyed Chester's positive postings on this board. I don't believe I ever met him.

Re: My solo piano Garcia songs project

I like Run for the Roses! Even better than the other two that I listened to. I especially like the verse you play at 2:30 where you let the piano take the melody, with a little bit of ad-lib on the right hand! Keep this project alive!
