Hi, love the video’s but I’m a beginner so can you please say when your doing an up stroke because it would really help me follow along ! Thank you !,,,,

[@COMANDOLIN]

Hey there - you can play this with very few upstrokes. I was sitting here trying to figure out where I was hitting them and in the main melody - if you’re singing it to yourself- you can upstroke on the words “of” and “keep”. As in “Blue moon OF Kentucky KEEP on shining” and going into the chorus, “and it WAS on a moonlit night…” Those seem to be the main notes that I can think that are on those upbeats. Hope this helps, I’ll try to reference that more in the future :)

You know, when someone says a town I’m not familiar with, I go look it up so I put the pin the the right place. I have to say, what an amazing looking town and setting! The mountains out there are just spectacular.
