Im just afraid that i will end up only accepting it if it's perfect. I have such a need for my solos to be perfect. I get this wonderful feeling everytime i execute a very good solo.
But i also wonna be able to actually write a solo. So that i remember it and people will notice it the next time they hear it. You know what i mean. Like sweet child o mine, or money by pink floyd...
I have a hard time figuring out new and variated stuff to play for a solo, instead of all the stuff i use to improvise and play. Does this make sense to you?
And i also have the famous problem of playing to much in the boxes. I love the pentatonic... That being said wonna be able to go outside of the box, and make nice bends/melodies and nice runs and those kinda things.
It's the emotional solos that i fear the most.
