At least I am now able to practice one of my all time favorite songs. Please Come to Boston. |
A year ago, actually it was July the 5th, Clint and I went shopping for a tripod for my camera. After we left Best Buy, we stopped by Guitar Center on Kingston Pike, Knoxville, Tennessee. Clint has played guitar since his college days, self taught I might add. I always enjoy going in to the Guitar Center and admiring all the guitars. I jokingly remarked to Clint, if I ever played guitar, I would want "that guitar right there", pointing to a beautiful black lacquered electric guitar. Of course I was kidding, or so I thought.
Later that day I remarked I had seen some good looking (to me) used guitars and blurted out someday I might like to learn to play the guitar. Clint said I did not need to purchase a guitar, I would just learn on his Ovation. I did start my lessons from Clint and have learned a lot. Practice, practice and more practice are in order. I admit I have taken a three month break from practicing but plan to get back to it. I had not realized when I started this post that tomorrow is the anniversary of beginning this wonderful journey. This afternoon I plan on practicing chords. Whew! That darn C chord was something else!
A long way from making a YouTube, I am still amazed that I have come this far. Thank you Clint for your patience and helping me so much.
(It has been months since I have posting anything on my blog, I am hoping this publishes without any problems. I need to get back to my blog. Thanks to anyone reading this far.)
