Been many days now, listening to fingerpicking guitar music. Liking John Fahey (recently completed his biography) .
This blog is about me and my music. My current focus is on learning piano using the Sudnow Method and guitar improvisation. I currently play guitar in a band that concentrates on playing the early rock and roll of the 50’s and 60’s. I also play guitar in a trio setting that focuses more on the jazzy side. Seemingly irrelevant posts on this blog reflect topics that are probably expressed in my music somewhere.

G u I t a r
Good day with the guitar today. Played the first Christmas gig with the band today. Went well. Found that lowering my guitar volume as well as not playing through while songs helped our sound. See first picture below. Nice day on the Martin as well. Using the instruction DVD below. Having a good time with it, taking it slow. Learning right hand thumb independence while playing melody with other fingers. Feeling that I’m getting some improvement today with that!
