Y'all been practicing any? I have been hitting it pretty hard (hard for me anyway
) About 45 minutes to an hour a day on the acoustic. Getting a little better. How about you guys?
Yeah, if he doesn't want to play some covers, you don't need him anyway. People want to hear songs they know and can sing along with.jdpas29 said:i play pretty much every day... usually on my electric.
just lost a member of my band, though. it really stinks because we had worked up a bunch of harmony parts to different original tunes and now all that has gone down the crapper. he said he was quitting because he "didn't want to play any covers".i think that's a bs excuse.
i, personally, don't know any locally successful bands that don't play some covers. i'm all about originals, but every now and then you gotta play something the ladies know. otherwise they make their boyfriends go to some other bar.
*rant off*
keep on practicing, baby!
have you tried a chiropractor?CrimsonHavok said:I don't play nearly as much as I used too. I've got CTS and it makes really hard for me to play for any longer than 20-30 minutes. BUt I usually try to pick it up everynow and then just so I don't lose the callouses on my fingers.
