Sean Daniel Not sure if this is a thing but I think it would be really cool to see a weekly lesson on keys and progressions. For example, once a week pick a Key and teach the scale and chords within the key and at the end make the main point of the lesson but a backing track of the progression and teach us a good way to improvise over the progression. Or perhaps a more advanced series for us intermediates looking to kick it up a notch and really challenge ourselves! P.S. Do you think getting a degree in music is a good way to go? I'm wanting to one day give guitar lessons to make an extra income and music is a real passion of mine, I'm wondering if getting a music degree would be worth it for becoming a teacher. Thanks again Sean, love your lessons and videos! Keep up the awesome work, you're a pleasure to learn from.

+Andromeda thanks so much for the idea. So I would never want to steer anyone away from a degree in music, but personally my degree is in something totally unrelated and not having a music degree has never stopped me from being successful as a teacher. Now I've been lucky enough to build a client list on my own and if you want to teach at a university that's a different story. But in my experience, of you know what you're talking about and are a good teacher that's all that matters :)
Sean my man, thank you so much for this Riff Deconstruction, I loved it... Navy Mark... Oh, I agree with Aditya, I would thoroughly enjoy a R/D of Hotel California...
Aditya Venkat Chalamchala yea I'd love to see that. He touched on it a little bit in one of the modes with friends videos I think but a full deconstruction video would be pretty cool
once I'm done mastering the Mario theme, that I've been practicing since you posted it, ( which I am slowly getting up to speed on) I will do this next. Thanks Sean!
What exactly is happening when the first vocals come in and he's playing a D major chord? Does the song go from being D Dorian to D Mixolydian at that point?
Awesome song to play at party so drunk guy can sing obnoxiously becoming the anti-wingman. Please warn others of the danger. Play responsibly my friend😜
I think you got into Ritchie's head pretty well. if you listen to any footage of him just screwing around with playing, you can hear the influence exactly as you described. I said it before, I'll say it again, when the tortured soul of a band leaves, so does the variable, the ingredient, that gives a band their, signature musicality. this is by far, my favorite, riff deconstruction and video yet. it was the Mario Bros video, but that was short lived. this was an instance where I think you got into the mind of the song writer really well
Sean Daniel what do you think could be an easy song to play and sing together like a sexy romance rock song i could learn easy but sounds difficult? i have a friend that want to impress some girl he likes. thanks asking for a friend :)
Oh no. Bon Jovi. That guy just always felt so fake to me. But then again, you're right. If you can just get beyond the cheesy symbolism of Bon Jovi, the music is pretty good. Studying music definitely helps one get past that prejudice. Good lesson.
Thank you. Appreciate your sharing your logic in diagnosing music.
Thanks Lee! Always appreciative of your support on the videos :)
Learned this riff some time ago, very enriching to get the theory behind it. Thanks Sean!
No problem! Happy to help :)
YES! Bon Jovi! Great song!
Legendary and iconic song :)
Your channel deserves so many more views and subs, keep up the excellent work, seriously. I find all of them informative and very well done!
Thank you so much! Happy to help :)

Sean Daniel Thanks for the advice Sean, much appreciated! :D
Thank you.Something new for me to work on.
No problem! Start practicing :)
Sean my man, thank you so much for this Riff Deconstruction, I loved it... Navy Mark... Oh, I agree with Aditya, I would thoroughly enjoy a R/D of Hotel California...
Oh it's on the list!
Thank you. Riff deconstruction of Hotel California ?
Aditya Venkat Chalamchala yea I'd love to see that. He touched on it a little bit in one of the modes with friends videos I think but a full deconstruction video would be pretty cool
Aditya Venkat Chalamchala that would be nice
Bon Jovi ewww CRIIINNNGE worthy but good intro i spose.All the uncool kids liked Jovi at skool lol
ICONICCCC
+Andrea I've played that song once or twice before
Great song for this section of your channel.
Thank you for watching :)
great lesson.
Thanks for the support :)
Down the neck kind of sounds like Neil Young. Thanks, Sean.
Is awesome video thought😀
Thanks for watching :)
once I'm done mastering the Mario theme, that I've been practicing since you posted it, ( which I am slowly getting up to speed on) I will do this next. Thanks Sean!
Very cool :) No problem!
Good lesson, I'd like to see some Rush next. Maybe closer to the heart or limelight?
Keeping in mind, Ritchie tunes his guitar a half step down to accommodate for Jons voice!
Yay thank you! :)
No problem :)
What exactly is happening when the first vocals come in and he's playing a D major chord? Does the song go from being D Dorian to D Mixolydian at that point?
And in NJ/ NYC areas that song will also have folks wanna kill ya lol
haha, i can understand that.
And justice for all intro deconstruction?
Yer smart.
Thanks Steve!
Hey Sean!
When you teach phrases or stuff you could show the Tabs in the window shutters,.. It would fit 😉
Just kidding!
Love your Videos!
Cheers, Flo
Thanks for the support :)
Hey Sean... you can't do a Riff Deconstruction without the Riff Master... Tony Iommi \m/ !!!
Hotel california.... chord analysis and solo analysis.......let them it cake
I need to!
Awesome song to play at party so drunk guy can sing obnoxiously becoming the anti-wingman. Please warn others of the danger. Play responsibly my friend😜
ok let's see what we have here
OMG, here come the salty blues comments, mixed with bon jovi hating comments
One can only hope!

What's on your sweet band
+inescapablestud it's my admissions bracelet to Dinosaur World ;)
Sean Daniel Damn I didn't even know we had one of those hear
here*
why you don't never plug up and live on a prayer
Living on a prayer actually is kind of a guilty pleasure.
Sean Daniel me and my neighbor has to turn down the radio when we make it back to the neighborhood from work lol
Sean Daniel what do you think could be an easy song to play and sing together like a sexy romance rock song i could learn easy but sounds difficult? i have a friend that want to impress some girl he likes.

Right on man, Bon Jovi isn't for everyone, but still good elements of music.
WRONG !
