Embracing the suck

I have been practicing over the last few months, probably more consistently than most over the last year. I just haven't been recording because I've been trying to make myself practice more and not worry about the vlogging. Here I'm working on a 4 chord change from A to E to F# minor to Bb spending half a measure on each using the the standard Down-Down-Up-Up-Down-Up strumming pattern. My chord...

Got rid of my upright piano and got an electric piano because... Well, you'll see.

Found a video from last month where I was trying to learn a popular road travelling song.

Longer video because I want to remember that I was working on this other song, too. It's fairly simple, but still too complex for me. For now. Muahaha.

Still doing 15 minute sessions of F to C, but I'm also trying to learn a song that actually uses it.

Still grinding on the F to C and back
