 Re: Progress video. Prepare to laugh... Good job, bro. Most who take on this instrument will struggle for months to get such a grip on it.
Relax. Try not to lock your gaze on the board. Let your fingers develop muscle memory and your playing will skyrocket.
Keep us updated.

If you have a way of viewing a live view from the camera, like with a webcam, you could train your body to look straight ahead and still see what you are doing. As that becomes comfortable, spend more and more time playing with your eyes closed.

Re: Progress video. Prepare to laugh... I really appreciate vids like this that present something to listen to in combination with a bit of a "practice session" vibe. Cool...thanks for sharing!

Tonight, I evolve from triad chords to 7ths. Maj7, Min7, Dom7, Dom7sus4, Min7b5, dim7, Maj6 and Min6. I really want to start reading down chord charts, even if it's primitive gotta start somewhere! Thanks Greg!
glad you like the video. One of my favorite things about the Stick in the context you mention is that you can create a two-part conversation with just the left hand outlining chords and filling in the space between with leading bass tones.

Re: Progress video. Prepare to laugh... Dude you're gonna be killing that thing in a few yrs! You'll be giving Skype lessons! You're doing great so far, dont beat yerself up....... I tried to practice in a mirror to avoid looking down, but that just fucked me up.......plus I was always checking out my hair to make sure my spikes hadnt lost their integrity........  I look down less now than I did 2 yrs ago though. I see you have removed "worst Stick player ever" from your signature.......good move. cheers, kev
