As for posting something in the Listening Section, I've been wanting to but I'm trying to wait until I have some decent recording equipment. As of now all I use is my iPad! My next purchase is going to be some kind of software and maybe a microphone with USB plug in.

By the way, I listened to your Blues in Bm post, and it's awesome. I've actually done more than listen to it, I've played along to it several times. We sound pretty good together haha! But I have trouble not repeating some of the same licks. I have about 10 go-to licks when it comes to blues that are difficult to stay away from. I've tried to actually tab out what you're playing, but my ear is not that good yet.

:-). Thank you for sharing that - that has to be the best complement I could get, that you've tried to tab out what I've played!

I know exactly what you mean about repeating yourself. Believe it or not, there's a good bit of repetition in those recordings. I'll take a lick, change the phrasing, play it in a different register, etc.

BTW, here is the backing track that I used:

Having a great backing track to play over makes a big difference. For some reason, this track really inspired me when I found it.
