      My good man, my fellow human. I saw some early videos. Your weight is on the rise. A month ago I was 304 and today I'm 283 on keto. But when I come off keto at 3 months or 4, ill have to watch that scale. Just don't let it get too high. Watch carbohydrates for sure. You're incredible by the way. Just trying to keep you in earth for people to enjoy what you do.

      Haha, a lot of the time you've learned the song before but you forget what key it's in and how to play it. I'm 35 and I haven't played Simple Man in probably 20 years. It would take me longer than that but I'd have it worked out in a couple minutes of just hitting notes and seeing what's what. Other than that it's just staying in key when you solo. Dude killed it though, respect.

    This is proof of skill and passion, the musician doesn't know the song or chords.
    Yet by just a quick google he can make a complete track out of it and even make it so that it still sounds familiar and at the same time unique.
    it didn't only put a smile on the face of that man who requested it, it became a unique experience an almost once in a lifetime experience for all those people who where there at that moment.

      God damn. All i had to do was believe my mom when she told me rolling stones song cant always get you what had all the lyrics i needed to remember. RIP 1945-2010. Momma, you were right all this time and i just... spent so much wasted time. I'm so sorry. But someday you're gonna meet my wife. I tried after all those years. And we ain't rich thats for sure, we share a garage apartment and I'm 40. We get by. but if anyone reading this needs to understand sage wisdom, im going to close my eyes for a few seconds. Trust me. . . . . Ok, in that moment i was as rich as bezos. Ac set nice temp, sound from the stereo i keep as a hobby, in a comfy bed, blanket pulled up, mmm, stomach aint growling, few minutes ago had a drink of ice cold alkaline water. I can barely hear a flat screen in another room, and this tablet i felt the weight of it's nearly magical existence, roof over head, no bugs bugging me, texting was quiet so my wife doing good, and I'll be honest im I'm a little bit relaxed on some whisky, too. Im showered. Teeth brushed. Relaxed. And there you go for that little moment i had 200 billion dollars. Eyes open, looks like i got what I need. Since 2014, this girl has inspired me to know, even jeff don't gotba big Hispanic family that took me in as their own like this. Andi an close my eyes and be a billionaire again, but it's not wirth it if i see my girl less. I really tried mom, and i got what i needed after all.

      @A Lucky Man! musics cool cus we can disagree on this. I’m on the train of thought of, without truly experimental shit, we would be nowhere in this world. Every time people get sick of true pop, ordinary people experiment in music, and we get rock (Led Zeppelin, Rolling Stones, Hendrix), jazz (too much to list), even dance, EDM, hip hop and rap, and much more. Yeah, learning songwriting necessities is cool and fun, no arguement there, but for me and I’m sure a lot of other people (probably not majority), learning crazy jazz chords, cool scales and implementing those things and just experimenting with different shit is just so fun.
