I wish I would of saw this before yesterday, Some friends wrote a song yrs ago and need me to record lead in the song.
One of them got so impatient and frustrated cause he thought I could just learn the song/never heard it before, on the spot and brighten it up with guitar parts and a solo. Coming up with a create parts related to the chords, plus. Kind of a country toon I'm not used to the style but I improvised with some bends licks and stuff.
I felt real uncomfortable with his constant impatience so the mistakes got worse and lost concentration, finally I had to say something. And this was a home recording so we weren't paying.
A bit selfish of him, he just wanted to have it perfected so he could travel to see his girlfriend this weekend.
We didn't get all of my part recorded but we came along way in 5 hours.
I need to check my intonation cause I'll toon but play a certain chord and it will be out, my frets are wearing from constant practice to.
Thanks for all the knowledge, I can use all of it.
