    I haven't really done ANY of these, but I had time and interest this afternoon, so I sat down and did the one for 85. As always, I think there's a few really good moments - islands of goodness in the ocean of diarrhea. As always with the bits that are sweepy in nature, I have no idea what the fuck I'm ACTUALLY doing and trying to play a legit sweep has me fumbling over my fingers like a n00b, but hey, I can play to my limited strengths.

    Really enjoyed that! Especially the laughter after the sweeps 😂

    @Ed Seith That was awesome, you must have lot's of experience. I'm really happy you joined in :D

    @Mariler Ferrer The only Noob shit I heard was the low volume, I was able to see motif and those building block and expanded concepts thing PG talks about in the blues lessons. ( maybe elsewhere too )

    I'm going to take a little more time today on my improv. I want to try and do that stuff too, I'm really chaotic

    Some sloppy licks today. The ideas were in my head but not in my fingers 😆

    Transferring ideas from your head to your fingers definitely is a process you need to go through. This also isn't an easy backingtrack to solo over due to those little ending bits but you did kind of ok! I did notice you were looking for the right notes at times, did you seek out the chord progression before you started?
