play guitar properly

Eoin, bless him, has been patiently teaching me to play the guitar for several months now. Every few weeks we have an impromptu lesson, he teaches me something in a few hours, I promise to practice it, then I go back to my room with his lovely Rikter guitar and leave it in the corner until I’ve forgotten everything again. NOT ANYMORE! This summer I shall be living with my brother and if Eoin can’t beat it into me, perhaps Colin can.

I’m not one for lessons, so I’ll have to find some other way. I have a book that I used before which was quite good, perhaps I should try it again …

Playin guitar properly has a great sense of achievement… To be able to reproduce your favourite acts songs in a reasonable and pleasurable sounding way is like getting rid of the flux box and settling for self induction… all the pleasure with less effort! :D
