I had a really good lesson today. My teacher was very complimentary. But also quick to notice things that needed work. I love how he is teaching me everything from the ground up. I really want to know the hows and they whys. He was very pleased, when I played "Banjo in the Hollow" and "Cripple Creek" for him, that I was being very steady, and pretty damn clean. He always pounds that into my head. He helped me with some timing issues I was having. I guess I had not figured out how timing works when reading tab. Basically the same as in written music. I only barely read written music, and only for vocal work. But I am feeling a lot better about rhythm and timing now. Good lessons are such a wonderful feeling!
