Roger's rock on wheels

I can well imagine that you don’t remember that anymore , I have posted evidence of that what happens and whywhen you and Brain were halfway with the party…

and the next morning We wouldn’t talk about it anymore, but it’s been so long that it’s forgiven and forgotten :roll_eyes:

Proof is in this topic that I’m not making this up now :roll_eyes:Gordon and Brian :confetti_ball:
:joy:

Yes, but yours was a birthday special date cake … my pancake was just an ordinary day, because she loves me and …well …uh… probably she had some wine :laughing:

This morning she/we looked at that cake again and they were both impressed again :scream:…it is (was) really really beautiful …amazing :smiling_face_with_sunglasses:

Greetings :grinning_face_with_big_eyes: :birthday_cake:

Oke ,what did we agree about joking during my tea drinking moments???

Fortunately, recently almost always without honey Fortunately, recently almost always without honey because there is more on the ground … otherwise it would stick under my wheels … every turn there would be a sticking sound and thinking the whole day about you :laughing:… and I am quite mobile here :sweat_smile:

And now that I’m here, I’ll just post it here, my song, which I’m very happy with, should certainly not be missing from my LL and provides the necessary variety between all the other side issues of life :grin: :smiling_face_with_sunglasses:

Greetings and … now …this … is Chrisss

Brian @brianlarsen and others :blush:

my extra guitars came into my living space very very very early this year … ( and to think that many country and neighborhood residents have had a tree indoors for much longer…talk about crazier…but the smell is nice and it also looks cozy :blush: )
I completely agree that the C word should not be used or at least rally live before December…so…how what why in the world ,why this???

As so often happens, I can make a long story out of it, but it is that we signed up for this bio, eco-friendly tree and even the delivery was done in the least polluting manner possible… it was this or December 19… at Christmas it will probably be a bare tree.

Ps: “presents” are for decoration

Last night :see_no_evil_monkey:

This morning

I will leave the deeper Christmas wishes aside for a while (mmm… this is just a confession post :blush: ) , but ofcourse I hope that everyone will continue to roll a bit easy and good as possible through these dark days the way best as they can :crossed_fingers:… how to keep your guitar at hand and also remember that it is “just a guitar” for when things don’t go so well with practicing and such…

Greetings and sorry if you read this today on November …so so sorry :grin:

Hi John @JohnnyW
In my youth we never did presents …(EDIT : Typo :see_no_evil_monkey: thanks Gordon) or for Christmas, that started when I moved in together with my girl… but every Christmas since then there was a bottle waiting for me under the Christmas tree in my parental home… this was always a bottle of Drambuie, but the day before yesterday I couldn’t find it in a small version

somethinjg to do with "tie a cat on bacon and you not want it to eat that " :roll_eyes:

then it was this one, which I also last tasted a long time ago… it was certainly a nice 2nd tastiest. :grin:

Greetings

I love your tree Rogier! So festive! :sparkles: :christmas_tree:
and I love that it’s eco too :sparkling_heart:
maybe better that it’s not decorated with Brian :rofl:

Also, the Bryan Adams riff - very cool :smiling_face_with_sunglasses:
And the Pink Floyd one - still beautiful! I watched it a few more times

Hardly anyone of my age or older received presents at Christmas…here in the Netherlands, parents hate their children and want our lives to be as miserable as… Oh wait, we celebrated Sinterklaas with an idiotic mountain of presents delivered in bags and such. :sweat_smile:

Halo, what is this, music in my LL again? :roll_eyes:

Okay, this is a project and intended for myself and maybe someone will find it useful later (I really hope it become a project ), last week I heard this song ( wanted to start immediately but something suddenly came up - PF )
and I actually didn’t know or remember this song at all to my great shock…although the explanation makes it less bad I think but a bit too long to explain.

This style and the whole Rhythm lick thing is what I prefer to hear and see happen on my belly :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

But since I came across the Justin lesson from ONE -U2 a long time ago ( first month starting here I think) , I regularly try that one grip with the A and the thumb over it and that doesn’t work and while trying the finger also becomes more and more painful and that actually applies to all techniques that come close to that one.

I first wanted to set the video to private, but I also thought that was a bit lame, even if I won’t be able to show a super lick/riff piece of music soon ( or ever this one )… sometimes it’s just a bit disappointing…

I hope that this way exerts a positive pressure, although I don’t see how yet, but if it all becomes a bit too much for me but not too painful, then in a few weeks I will have some comparison material and I will also remember what I felt today…

Good luck to me :joy:

Day one … after a lot of practice yesterday and some more today, but within 24 hours so 1 :blush:

Not a face in sight because this is hard, very hard work and you/I really don’t want to see that :sweat_smile:

Greetings

No comments so now I can put this nicely here under the first one …

A strange thing is happening in my head with this first piece since last week…, even now typing without the radio on and continuing with every silence before, but in the extreme yesterday and today that I no longer hear anything but this tune when it is quiet in the area even through the thoughts that always continue… which is annoying if you keep making mistakes with guitar in hand and will continue to do so for a while, but in this form… When I started with John Mayer last week I first started with another song by him which at first I thought this was it … Possibly a much more complicated story but that is for later … I actually only knew him on stage with people like BB-King, Clapton and some of those greats.

Last week I asked my wife if I knew something about him and what exactly it was called “dancing in a darkroom ???” or something like that…???

Well this is day 2 and I’m not going to keep this going/doing every day… :grimacing:

And ‘Wish You Where Here’ is banging at the door and I have also taught myself some wrong things (or rather less nice things, let’s see if I can get that out in those few days after years of playing differently :crossed_fingers:)

So day 2 of hard practice …the best days with the fastest progress are already over, I feel… now it’s time to gather bits and pieces :sweat_smile:

Greetings

Hi Withold @witkatz
You posted when just when I was bussy typing :blush:

Thanks for sharing that …How nice that Lee is doing a lesson about that, hopefully that will result in some more versions posted of this classic what Justin asked in the mail. Lee’s lessons that I quickly scanned earlier are just not intended for me… I know I’m complaining a bit about my playing and especially that I now mix the 2 versions a bit together, but my problem now is with the extra bass notes and a number of new ghost strums to be added… and I played this without a pick in recent years and now with those extra bass notes I don’t yet master the technique properly to do it with my thumb/index finger…

I hope I explained it well :crossed_fingers: if not ask me :grinning_face_with_big_eyes:

Greetings and wish you a lot of fun :smiling_face_with_sunglasses:

I’m still at the very beginning and can’t really judge that. You’re playing at a level where it simply doesn’t matter if you follow the lesson guidelines exactly. Just play your version, I’d love to hear your individual cover version, I’m sure it will sound interesting and be of high quality.
Cheers Withold

Thank you for your confidence Withhold :grinning_face: I’m only sticking to the “assignment” to do the intro…I will add the solo that I have clearly in mind to the strumming later in the new year, but first take an Ableton course…this year it really is…well …yes it must :blush:

See you later :waving_hand:

Oh… After somewhat meanly ignoring your Pink Floyd and Christmas videos ( don’t like PF and feel anything else than christmassy at the moment) , I of course definitely needed to watch your new video

Oooh… The tone… And I really like those - what are they even percussive hits but sharper still? More? :smiling_face_with_sunglasses:
