that was excellent, Rogier! :clap: :clap: :clap: Great timing and groove!
I agree, it doesnā€™t sound like youā€™ve missed any practice time.
Glad to hear that youā€™re feeling better and playing again though :mending_heart:

Iā€™ve been working through the Solo Blues Guitar course too, and have had fun working on this one. You make it seem so easy! :star_struck:

Hi John @Guitarman63
Thank you and yes I enjoying playing a lot ā€¦

always a lot of amusement when I play and always think while playing about fellow forum members who are going to watch and comment or what they have said in the past :roll_eyes:ā€¦ that often causes extra grins in between :grin:

Ooo John Lee Hooker ā€¦ me too soon ā€¦I hope :crossed_fingers:

Hi Eddie @Eddie_09
Thank you very much for dropping by ,

I have been holding the guitar for 10 minutes every other day and sometimes after 2 days, but this playing is what I have been doing most of the last few months, so I will soon be able to do that fast again after 2 days or soā€¦ :sweat_smile:

Bravo Rogier ā€¦ have I said this before? Did you know there is an entire topic devoted to these thumb-blues pieces in ā€˜Challengesā€™?

He mentioned in the last BLIM Q&A that the updated solo blues course was planned to be released I think towards the end of January. Didnā€™t you pay attention in the classroom?

Maybe time for a new solo blues challenge v2 topic to reflect the refreshment of the updated course?

Hey Rogier, that was wonderful!

I never checked that 3rd lesson out! But one day I will! You did so very well!
And there were bits that reminded me of ā€œSweet home Chicagoā€

Now I started BLIM and this will help me getting better too!

All the best and see you around,
Dominique

yesā€¦ :smile:

Thank you Richard ā€¦and

Wasnā€™t that Hansā€™s topic?
Yes, I didnā€™t think about that for a moment when posting, I think I agree with James

I could of course post a link in the challenge topic ā€¦ given my limited contributions in the AVOYP topics, this could use a little more spotlight ā€¦ if this is not desired, please let me know and I will post the next one in the old or new topic as suggested by James ā€¦ or start a new one ā€¦ for me itā€™s all okay .

:roll_eyes: ā€¦ the story of my life, I was always staring outside and/or dreaming away in class ,
has caused major problems (no kidding):grimacing:

Iā€™m looking forward to it :smiley: :sunglasses:

Hi Dominique @domi7

Cool that you started with Blim ā€¦ have a lot of fun :smiley: :sunglasses:

Blues soul, right there! I love this little piece, and I love the way you play it, the nice little staccato notes, mastery of that tricky B7 bit, a beautiful blues curl on the turnaround, and a lovely ending shaking-guitar-vibrato. I had to watch through twice, but I still didnā€™t catch the mistake youā€™re talking about. Your performance is just too engaging I guess, Rogier, what with looking up at the camera and all :blush: Thanks for posting your recording :blush:
