educated film- what i meant when i said i know "A" completely all throughout the fretboard, is that i memorized it and am 'working it out', and after i get it 'down real good' i will move into G then C then D etc, til i get everyone 'down'. i just dont want to confuse myself with "is this A or G???" so i figure i'll take it one step at a time.
im starting to do long improvisational lead guitar playing, and i believe my playing has improved because of it. there is a guitar player that lives up the street, but me, if i get together and jam, im likely to do a few songs, than break into a jam , a long long jam. now the kid up the street plays the SAME THING OVER AND OVER, never changes.We also do not really like each other at all, so that takes jamming away. now there is this other kid who hasnt been playing 'too' long, about 7 or 8 months, and i guess he's alright, im thinkin about jammin with him. then add the drums in there, then sometimes a sax, i think i see improvement comin.
