      played in an expensive gig completely drunk (I didn't consider the fact that absinthe would hit you hard) i only remember playin a solo half step higher than the tune played by the band, the day after my friend said I litetarally ran away from their tune; while they transposed to catch me i transposed to half step higher or lower. We couldn't get our money that night and they never called us again...

    I’ve always agreed with the “take this chunk and slow it down” practice method.
    However, with my band practice, my drummer and I would always start back from the top, or if we got a little frustrated, the part before the mistakes, and then to the end.
    What are some of your experiences when practicing in a band setting?

      Never been in that situation, but in a band/performance setting, it makes a kind of sense. If you're playing live to an audience, sure, you don't want to fuck up, but you also need to get used to finishing the song even if you fuck up. You can't stop the show and start the song over.

    I like your new chords thing at the beginning. It taught me a really Nice chord. As for my biggest guitar fail, when I bought a guitar for the first time, I quickly learned how to tune a guitar using the octave/7th fret method. My ears are good enough to tune by ear pretty accurately in terms of relative string pitches. Yay. Unfortunately, they aren't good enough to tell when I've tuned my entire guitar up an entire fifth. I destroyed the stock tuners on my epiphone les paul special II as a result and had to get new tuners as well as have the local guitar shop guys - who were like grizzled blue collar punks - read me the riot act about being stupid and tuning wrong. And I bought a digital tuner.

I redeemed myself a few days later at the bigger commencement ceremony at the community pavillion which had about 2500 people there. But that wrong sour note still haunts me 30 years later😂.

    I once read an interview with Rusty Young, pedal steel player of the '70s band, Poco. He told of a time he was playing a particularly energetic solo, when the slide slipped out of his hand and flew across the stage. He said that after that, he made throwing his slide across the stage one of his "moves." It was a mistake once, then became part of his performance--pretty cool way to deal with it.

    When I'm learning a song, I make the song into parts. I practice part A until I can play it comfortably without thinking about it. Then I get to part B. I practice part B until I can 'just' play it. Now my approach is this: If I want to keep practicing part B I first have to play through part A. It takes a bit more time than just practicing part B, but with this approach, I play the first part so many times, that it gets boring and I start adding stuff. And when it comes to part C of the song, it all starts again. You wanna play part C? Well, you gotta play the first two parts first.
    I don't know if it's efficient, but it works for me pretty good.

Ended up being pretty successful and a lot of people showed up.

    Another lesson to be learned from the Angriest Guitar Player (to go along with your advice): when you're practicing something and still struggling to throw it all together, DO NOT STOP PLAYING just because you got a few notes wrong!
    Playing THROUGH your mistake may be exactly what you need to get a feel for how the notes are strung together! Starting over at every mistake is...
    1. Preventing you from practicing the REST of the riff/song and...
    2. Is committing the WRONG kind of muscle-memory to your brain!
    No matter how much time goes into rehearsal, when playing live, mistakes WILL happen! If you play THROUGH your mistakes people will either not notice or not care about a few bad notes BUT... The absolute WORST thing you can do in that situation is to completely STOP playing! You DO NOT want your brain to be trained to want to stop and start over because of a mistake!!

    The “know who you are and go with it” message is way deeper than it seems because it’s sitting on top of that DJ Khaled video. I wrote complicated, twiddly leads for years at Ramones bpm over crazy, idiosyncratic chord changes, key changes, etc., and sometimes it went ok. I achieved far more once I got down to singing and playing over three open chords (sometimes another in the bridge). If I ever play lead anymore, it’s to improv a simple melodic pattern in the studio. Just my thing, of course, but yeah, that’s just what I’ve got.
    Another way to put it: Imagine Hound Dog Taylor (if you don’t know who he was, look him up-spectacular!) trying to play “White Cliffs of Dover.”

I really just want to be able to solo outside of pentatonics and be more melodic. I got the major cowboy chords down.

    #3 helps a lot wih #1. Slowly build up your tempo on a song until your reach then songs tempo.... THEN play it faster than that. That was when you play it in a show it's feels slow to you and you breeze right through it.
    So, for example, if the song I'm learning is 120bpm, I'll learn my parts until I can play them really well at 150bpm. Once I have that down, 120 is child play

    About the Angry Guitarists' practice method:
    Something that works very well for me is that, when I am stuck at a speed limit and I don't get past it, I just try to play it way quickier. So, I can play at 100bpm, I can't play at 110bpm. Ok, I put my metronome at 140bpm, and I practice it (poorly obviously) for some times. Then when I go back to 110bpm my brain say "ok, this is more manageable, let's work it from here". And most of the time, I can play it right after that.... it's like a fear of speed that need to be broken or something like that.

    • @NextDefault
      @NextDefault 3 года назад +5

      Its a pretty good way to get your fingers moving at the right speed but you have to be careful with it... playing substantially faster than you're comfortable with will make you play the part sloppily and when you slow it back down you might find that you're not playing quite as accurately as you'd like, since youre used to playing it at a tempo where thats not so important. At least that was my experience when i had only been playing a year or two and tried this. But everyones different and if it works for you, then keep doing it :p

    Henry Rollins had a comedy bit about playing a new song with his band at a huge outdoor show in Australia, and how the song had a change that his guitarist forgot about and that one little off note just threw Henry off “the little screen in my head with the lyrics just went blank.” He had the way of thinking that “nothing can go wrong” or it will turn off the audience, so he “started rocking out with the guys in the band” for 3 minutes straight. The guys in the band were VERY weirded out… and he mumbled to the guitarist “shut up, this is your fault.” He then did the “big rock ending”. He was telling the joke in Australia and he apologized to anyone in the audience that was wondering, “what was that weird song with one verse, half a bridge and then Henry acting like an idiot for 3 minutes?”
    I think the little screen in that Jonas brother’s head with the solo tab went blank.

    I was playing a show in a band of mine years ago and we were rockin an epic, 10 minute long song I had written (and that I was really excited about and proud of) and when it came time to shred my David Gilmour style solo, I had absolutely no sound coming out of my guitar. I mostly played the solo anyway and we finished the song but then I had to borrow someone's guitar from another band for the rest of our set. Turns out, when I switched to the neck pick up for this particular solo, the pot on my Dot Deluxe was turned down. Whoops! At least it was a cheap fix!

    Great vids! But bro, 20 years are not enough to make a good guitarist give up! Instagram phenomenons are usually easy songs with specific technique. 20 years in is still just the beggining. Trust me, Jim Hall, Pat Metheny, SRV, Jimi, all of them invested a lot more time in 10 years into the guitar, than most people n theirs 20 years studying. Thats why their good.
    Go on Sammy. Keep practicing, you have a great taste and you are an awesome guy. Dont accept your limitations ever my man. Keep pushing them, like I've seen yu do for years.
    Ive played guitar since im 5. Im 27 now. Play classical guitar, jazz and fusion. And I love your channel. Its really fun, chill and you have loads of style!
    Good luck my bro. Keep practicing like we all do. Until we die.

    Thank you so much for this- that part about isolating the problem and using a metronome might be just what I need. I've been trying to play the lead guitar part for the song "stuk", by the band Kino, and it's mostly fine, except for the solo in the middle. There's a part at the very end of the solo where you have to play some scale really quickly, I've been trying to get it for a month and my hands just seem to refuse to move quickly and accurately enough. I've been isolating the point I'm having trouble with, and found slanting the pick helps as it makes the attack smoother on the strings so I can pick faster, but that tip about the metronome might well be the last piece of the puzzle I need here.

    • @cactustactics
      @cactustactics 3 года назад +1

      Metronomes are super important yeah, they force you to be exact (and you can tell when you can't quite make it) and also give you a clear benchmark for how well you're doing, so you can see that progress and resume where you left off!
      One trick I like is to do little bursts of double speed, like if you're playing a pattern with 8th notes, play it with 16th notes for a bar or whatever. It's hard to play that fast the whole time, but you can often manage it for a moment! As you get used to it, you can start to extend the bursts to push yourself, and if you're already playing it slower (so the 16ths are close to the actual tempo you wanna play) you might be able to just build up to playing the whole thing at the right speed. Might be worth a try to get some trickier phrases under your fingers!

    Great video.
    My comment on DJ Khaled would be that he has some of the foundations of playing guitar down already just for being in the world of music. He kept time and a good tempo, which was only inhibited by his technique. He has everything he needs to find enjoyment in playing the guitar to a reasonable level, and only has to spend the time to learn and practice it.
    I hope that his gift of a guitar, and a love for the music of Marley drives him to spend that time, so he can learn those songs he loves.

    Re: DJ Khalid and "Embrace your limitations".
    I used to get really bummed out about my fluffed notes, or that I couldn;t shred as fast as the legends.
    Then I discovered CW Stoneking, and realised that I could actually incorporate these "fluffed notes" into my playing, if I just kept the confidence to power through it.
    Ok - I have been playing for more than 25 years - so I think I'm at that point where I can truly embrace this mind set. And it has been very liberating.

    I never really understood the hate for Lil Wayne's "solo". Sure, it's only two notes and played very sloppily, but I think it fits the backing track and the overall vibe just fine. If the recording quality was better it could sound pretty good.
