Last nite i download a guitar lesson vids from kristofer dahl title " things to play when you suck". And not surprisingly, i do sucks. (hehe)
Im not into the idea of playing guitar to impress someone, i just like to play guitar to calm myself and see what i can achieve in playing guitar.
I do think i dont have the talent to play licks like other guitar hero, but still i want to practice to lick till i satisfied with my efforts, then it is done, doesnt matter whether i can flawlessly played the lick, as long as it feed my souls.
I've been realizing this: I cannot listening to the sound of the guitar. I cannot get it. I don't have " play by you-ear" thing.
Sadly enough, i learn to play guitar from the streets. Where all the kids all hang out late nite. Started to play a few songs, such as Nickelback. Then finally get hooked up with guitar.
After all this years, i can see the improvement in fingering and speed of my hand, but "play-by-your-ear" still zero.
