The last Open Mic was a blast! I enjoyed playing and seeing the performance of everyone. It is great too to see how we all are improving from Open Mic to Open Mic, and even greater to see new people joining .
Normally I would just upload my performance to stick with my commitment of uploading a song every month to track my progress. Unfortunately, my video was dropping frames and I didn’t record myself. For that reason, I recorded myself again with the full outfit for the song (because of the nerves, I forgot I had to wear a hat to be more like that pretty fly guy )
At the time of the recording, I’d been practicing guitar for 254 hours since I started to learn with Justin and I’m on consolidation for Grade 2. However, I like this song so much that I had to play it. It’s been a song I’ve been working on now and then for many many months.
For the recording, I used a backing track without the guitar as usual and my gear for this AVOYP is:
Great to see you standing up and just rocking the house Edgar.
Grooving like a monster.
Wow.
I’m super impressed.
I missed the OM unfortunately so this is my first viewing of you hitting your stride and giving it 100%
Love it.
Yes! standing up is a game-changer in the way you play the guitar. And motivates a lot to be following the rhythm.
I get a pretty similar job because of profiling the Mesa Boogie Mark IV, which is the amp Kevin Wasserman uses. I found out on this page https://equipboard.com/pros/kevin-noodles-wasserman. Is a pretty handy web If you ever wondered which equipment a specific guitarist uses.
You think so? I never thought of myself as a showmanship . I have a total lack of feeling embarassment. That’s true . When I showed the video to my girlfriend she actually asked me that.
Thanks, @twistor59. The chord changes went well, but I was at the limit of my capabilities . You can tell because when I’m super focused I tend to bite my own lips
Loved this performance dude! The nostalgia was strong with this one…
Your playing was on point and the white guy mimicking part at the start was hilarious. Awesome stuff man.
Wow! Edgar, you’ve got that song dialed brother!! Having seen you play this live and then again here, I’m blown away at how incredibly good your playing is! The precision with those fast changes is spot on! Super well done mate! Keep it coming!!
I like being able to just scroll through the comments while listening, getting to the end and realize I wasn’t actually listening to the original song. That happened here, so great job! Keep em coming!
Hi Edgar. I really loved this one and the SG is a beauty. Great job. Are you sure you’re not a professional just tricking us into thinking you are a beginner?
