Recently I have started making guitar backing tracks. So today, for some reason, I felt like jamming with my own backing track. Something I regret not doing more often. I just hit the record button and improvised non stop. The thing is, I made loads of mistakes, slips etc. I was playing patterns familiar to me. But also I was trying to find different notes, licks to incorporate while playing. At the end of this 10 min stupidity, I at least knew 2-3 more licks that work/don’t work. I just want to encourage everyone to try wrong notes, wrong licks to find the right ones. It will really help getting out of the rut of your own licks. There are so many players in this forum who are 100 times more skilled and knowledgeable than I am. This is for them as well. Push your limits of composition and thinking. Do not ever think you do not have new licks, solos to come up with. ( I am not a good writer but you get the point basically). Here is me, 10 minute non sense on my guitar.
