Learning to Play Guitar

<< < (7/21) > >>

youtube, dude. there's alot of bullshit on there (but duh), but there's also some pretty solid lessons, and through the magic of video you can actually see someone excute the techniques instead of just guessing from a book.  justin sandercoe has alot of stuff on there that i found really helpful.
try to learn as much as you can by ear.  sheet music is a good thing to be able to read and you'll need to learn it eventually, but you need to build your ear, too.  another good thing is when you've got all the structure down on a particular album, go back and try to improvise around it.  this strengthens your ear and your sense of rhythm, so on, so forth. 
scales are good, theory's good, exercises are good, but remember that music is supposed to be fun.  you want to push yourself forward and learn and all that, but don't try to go so fast and so hard that you frustrate yourself.  take your time, grasshopper.

I would just like to comment on the irony inherent in this phrase:

This phrase contains irony and is highly amusing.

dalconnsuch: You can do one of two things to make this an enjoyable experience for everybody. You can either ship up, shape up, and start shitting me Tiffany cufflinks, or you can leave so the rest of us can have civilized discussion and try to help the OP learn to play some fucking guitar so we can GET ON WITH OUR LIVES. Seriously, the first thing I ever said to you was in a private message. It was giving you basic helpful advice on how we do things in this forum. Instead of heeding it and developing into a good poster, you blew up in my face, accusing me of trying to be the king of the forum.

Listen up, dude. I am not the only one who thinks your posts need improvement. I tried to be nice and I tried to help, but you have done NOTHING but continue to be a dick to not only me but to a lot of people I respect on this forum and whom I consider to be my friends (most recently your attack against Ballard).

Seriously, stop being a douchebag. This isn't even about your intentional disregard of forum policy. This is about your attitude and how you treat other people. Nobody loves a troll, so stop being one.

tl;dr don't be a fuckbag and we'll be nicer to you.
