practice makes perfect

Saturday, April 5, 2008

I have been playing less lately due to work and duties around the home. Sometimes it is hard to get into the flow and other times after a few days break it just flows nicely. Always makes me think should I have a break or play every night. After work the fingers are tired and sometimes sore so I blame work for my poor pickin. I have also notice when i am playing to my satisfaction I can find viriations of the notes and tunes with ease and enjoy wondering off and linking up all the tunes I can play. I find it great for practice and timing. I know I need to learn tunes correctly but at the moment I am enjoying hearing myself play at an even pace and flowing without having to stop and look at tab all the time. As we all know, Practice makes perfect.
