The last week I have been learning how to play the guitar. My uncle Rob has been giving up allot of his free time and dare I say it patience to teach me. I believe it is going very well. At least the stuff that I am strumming out now sounds vaguely like actual music, and not just screeching sounds.
I have been learning on an acoustic but the last couple of days I have been practising on the electric simply because of the fact I left the other one over my goddaughter’s house. However the electric seems to be allot easier on my fingers. Let me tell all you non guitar playing people that it hurts, and I mean really hurts. Though now my tips of my fingers are num and hard which my rock ‘n’ roll friends tell me is exactly what I want to happen which I guess I am glad about. The playing is allot easier! I have really been pushing myself to learn lots of songs that I can play and sing I believe I am doing okay, at least I haven’t had the neighbours coming around here asking me if I was strangling a cat or something. Saying that now I bet they are over here first thing in the morning.
I am very much looking forward to the day where I can sit in front of a camp fire and play some decent stuff. Who knows maybe one day I will be a world famous guitar player asked for by all those kids you see on ‘my super sweet sixteen’ demanding that I play at their party.... let’s not hold our breath though, yeah?
