Mid Taylor Swift

Yea you’re right. Billie Joe can’t play the guitar, who am I kidding. You’re not even supporting your hometown band, you disgust me.

Tom couldn’t do that because someone from the crowd wouldn’t be able to sync up with all of his pre-recorded guitar tracks

Yea if it were 1998 lol

No, but I did put on some porn and have sex on the phone while I read it.

You’ll be happy to know that I told my teacher I want to utilize the metronome for practicing as well. Jan could never.

Yup! That’s what started my whole being insecure about the use of my pinky and put me on to this journey. I appreciate the feedback lol.

Get control of your website you lazy ass mods.

Yea so what I’ve always done (and I think you may have even pointed it out at one time) is move my hand around to use my other fingers to play something whereas someone with longer fingers would have kept their hand in place and used their pinky. I can make it work but I’m just trying to get more efficient. We will see if it sticks though, I’m going to give it a fair try to change my ways lol. Even just changing my thumb placement is making it feel really awkward right now.

I never learned it but the the M&Ms riff doesn’t sound too hard to me. I can do hammer ons and pull offs just fine, my problem is stretching my fingers and specifically my pinky across the fretboard. It was pointed out if I lower my thumb a little bit that can help, which I am trying to get accustomed to doing. Been playing how I taught myself with bad technique for years so gonna take a bit to correct it. I’ll def try the exercise you mentioned tho!

Yea I’m not out to shred or anything I just am very limited at what I can do with the size of my fingers and stretching across the board. Figured trying to learn some things would be good for the brain as well. Otherwise I could have still lived happily ever after playing power chords in my bedroom lol

Yea my new guitar teacher busted it out because I told him I want to get better dexterity and use of my pinky. As you all know, I can barley use that thing 😂. I’m gonna keep trying to chip away at this every day and hopefully figure it out eventually. Feels so unnatural to me.

I hope these guys never make it. A name I have locked and ready for a band is Bad Genetixx. There is already Bad Company, Bad Brains, Bad Religion, etc. I’m supposed to be the next “Bad” sensation god damnit!!

Honestly getting more 5 Seconds of Summer vibes here, bub.

Nope. That’s fair though my name is actually Steven lol.

any of you guitarists out there ever do this exercise? Just learned about it today and trying to do this (without moving any of the fingers except the one you’re moving) is making me want to throw my guitar out the window lol
