Scott's Slightly Super-duper, Sunday Stick Shreddery 1
Okay, lol no shredding to be found here, but I do have the outline of a tune I am trying to work out; it's simple for now, mostly because my skill does not yet match my imagination... In a minor key, nothing to crazy, just a gloomy, miserable little riff you could probably drown yourself to... Wait... there IS a cheery section... Oops. Nope, wrong riffs. Maybe next Sunday...
I thought I'd share it in the formative stages, and maybe begin my 3 part apology for not playing the pentatonic bit as 16th note triplets like I wanted to... Ahh well, one day! Getting better, guys. Getting better.
So yeah, this is a bit rough, time is a little wacky and there's a hiccup here and there but I thought the idea was cool and decided to post it. Awright, off to work I go... have a great week, guys!

Sorry Scott, it will have to wait until tomorrow: really bad weather outside took out the telephone pole... Internet on the phone only and it can't handle a simple YouTube video... But the new stick looks amazing Sent by Tapatalk

Re: Scott's Slightly Super-duper, Sunday Stick Shreddery 1
I applaud your enthusiasm for learning and imagining. The parts you seem to have down are "scalar right hand with repeated note left hand". The interesting chordal parts in the left are accompanied by hiccups in the right just waiting for more practice and imagination. There are the inklings of a good idea wanting to be fleshed out. Keep going.

Re: Scott's Slightly Super-duper, Sunday Stick Shreddery 1
Lol that is the nicest "you suck" I have ever heard. Hahaha Seriously, though thanks for checking it out and giving me some feedback; it helps! This was just a sketch; I will develop it further. I could have done the thing with the "Stick Arpeggio" in the bass, but I honestly just wasn't sure what I wanted rhythmically under there, and didn't want to "brand" it. Just 1/4 notes in the bass so I could have the idea.For now.
Yes. After a year of hard practice I am not much further from where I was I am afraid. I may go into hiding for the next 5 years practicing so that I can emerge at a "playing for 6 months" level...

Scott,
If you "sucked", I wouldn't post at all. This video is definitely a midpoint on the road to awesomeness. It is not at the beginning, off the trail, or at the end. Listen to Steve and you will be just fine.
-Daniel

Re: Scott's Slightly Super-duper, Sunday Stick Shreddery 1
Just finished watching. I don't agree with the "suck" part. I like the song. I recognize improvement every time you post a new video, and above all, I see a man making music. That never sucks. It's inspirational to say the least. Plus, you're going in your own path witch is different than mine and that always makes me jealous cause you're doing things I cannot do. Keep them coming, keep me jealous, keep me inspired please cheers Sent by Tapatalk
