I know what you mean: I am often very unstructured when I practive too. I worry that it will prevent me from improving but I get VERY bored practicing the same thing over and over. I need a break sometimes.

I am enjoying the this website as there is variety: my lessons cover rock but on here I can do country/metal/songs etc.

I really struggle with theory: I try and try to study it but it feels like catching smoke. My instructor goes on and on and it literally goes in one ear out the other. I try reading the stuff and it makes little to no sense to me: the lessons I read all lack the structure and detail that I need.

This is not normal for me: I study and learn very easily but there is some block when it comes to this guitar theory. This to me is frusturating as it limits me a lot when wanting to improvise or play my own stuff.

Who knows maybe I can find some one who can help me with this or I can come to terms with the lack thereof!

I sometimes get so frusturated I cnnot even listen to a good guitarist like Slash without feeling even worse!
