Arpeggios

Trying to remember that Arpeggios are just broken chords and I already a play the notes when I play The shapes.
Seems hard to remember this

Pentatonic Scales and Shapes

Now working on Scales.....nice to see how the Pentatonic Scales fit into a broader voicing scenario. All the memorization schemes to learn Triad Chords really is a waste. Learn the Fret Board and the Triad Chord and it is much easier

Crow's Feet Band

Played yesterday at the GSPC Church Ice Cream Social. We were right after the Passing Zone Jugglers who are really very good and funny. After an act like theirs it was hard to make a comparable impression, but we did our best. In fact, we were invited to play at the Seniors Luncheon in October. Don't know if they invited us to the luncheon as Seniors, or because they wanted us to play. Either way we will be there.
Still working on Rhythm playing against a Metronome. Not a whole lot of fun, but still important. Also working on 5th string chording and 7ths. Beginning to understand more.
I also have concluded that the Guitar is one difficult instrument, but fun!

Les Paul

One of the electric guitar legends and performer of our time died today at 94. His was a very interesting story and worth time and effort to listen and read.
