Q2 - Wk 14 - 31 weeks in total.

Aweful heat this week, but I managed to do an extra day to make up for the loss lol…

Pleased that i managed to play Teardrops on my Guitar(could be sweat, I’m not sure) at tempo with the JG video. :slight_smile: . I feel a little more practice certainly wont go amiss. I would also live to be able to add J’s picking part in this but I’m no where up to scratch for that.

Rachel, I listened to your sneak peek video postings and enjoyed all of them. You have a solid strumming rhythm and clean chord changes. You are on track to reach your playing goals.

Soon as this heat breaks a little I’ll be posting another AVOYP “Teardrops on my Guitar”, soon.
Shame theres a fade in of this video , always take me a bar right now to get the timing as I dont know when the video starts.

Anyway, another week done adn feel good with where I’m at. I’m starting the F chord next week, should have started that awhile ago I think. Oh well…

Have a good weekend all, mine starts tomorrow :slight_smile:

Hi Rachel,

was reading through you log the last days and enjoyed it a lot! Very intersting read, and it is so clear to see you have plan and you’re following it with a lot of dedication! :slight_smile: :clap:

That’s quite a stunning record of instruments you’ve played - wow!! It’s only logical to add guitar on top. :joy:

Looking forward to your next AVOYP and wish you a very pleasant, long weekend. Enjoy your time! :smiley:

Having lost all my recorded data :woman_shrugging: :roll_eyes: I decided to take a bit of time off and come back to it soon.

R.

Well, had a week away from music, must say I’m less enthused to come back than I thought I would be even though I had some good days. Not sure why though.

Q2 Wk 18 - 38 wks total


All going resonably well, including the F chord, managing faster so more in the time. It’s going to take some time before I reach 60 but, its a start :slight_smile:

All good for now :slight_smile:

All progress is good progress Rachel, your dedication is spot on here, nice work! Have you started to pick any songs with F in them as yet to try out?

Not yet , it’s only been a week lol, I am surprised though that I can just about manage it on the Faith.
I had hoped to start the F chord a few weeks ago but hada glitch with all the recored data missing and decided to take a week off. So, Ive had a week at attempting F. Tricky but not impossible.

Prartners weekend as of tomorrow so, as few days off now.

R.

Interesting you say that, I found my Faith really receptive to barres too, no idea why!

Week 41

Gave my babooshka a kick this week and added most of module 10 to start practicing, with a few exceptions to be added later, like, F chord changes as I’ve only been practicing F chord a few weeks.
