Hey, so are you learning some new songs?

HI MIchael...

Im play themes or some vamps from here and there ...--> into the looper and find my ways to solo and have fun. If I try to hard to play exercises -  I loose my own ways. I listen what comes out of my playing and go on that way, BUT I keep in mind - what I have learned here... and get better over time...

HPs work has given me much input, but for me I can grow on 2-3 themes for long time.

In the last years and during this corona wahnsinn, I have been in politics in my head and more & more unable to be in a steady good mood - to do music as usual.

Life and my mind is changing constantly and I am happy to have the guitar by my side and I will play on without pain in my shoulders if I do my gym and dont take everything too serious.

On the other side I like to check out gear, pickups, do some DIY, listen to music.

I had the new NUX MG 300 here for 4 days but sent it back. It is very good for the money, but I prefer my 5Watt Tube Amp because of the feel & dynamics.

I'll keep on picking & learnig but not so hard 😄

If I make a little plan with some regulary exercises and study ca. 3 new Jazzstandards and some "styles" about the next year it will be fine.

I dont have to make a music race, although I like Trash Metal & Hardcore (sometimes). But this fast music does not come out of myself. If I would study all things I like I would need some more lifetimes. So... its always a compromise.

I am no professional musician - so ... I will begin to take it more easy now - Im 53years and will stay healthy. I did enough songs - and so ..the new morning brings a new song - I will play it and maby forget it again later 😁.

Michael ...I stop writing now. Sorry my english is just from school.

Keep on rocking ....or what do you do Michael ?
