| Well, my first lesson is booked for early March. I found a guy who is a professional musician and session player. He says he will teach me the principles and fundamentals but he will also try to customise my lessons so that these principles can be applied to the type of music I am into (which is Rock & Blues).
I am going to have a one off with him - see if we click - and if so, become a regular student.
ps - still takes me a bloody eon to change chords - but I can now do "Braveheart" (or at least what sounds like the intro theme), the first seven notes of......"stairway..." the first chord of "Everbody hurts" and the opening notes to Clapton's "Wonderful tonight".
Not bad for 4 days practice.....(but i do need to practice at my chord changing speed) Any Tips anyone (Dan, Urisk, Matt)? Or is it just the case of stick at it and it will happen?  |

| Cool, Ophiel. Your next task is to play the Terminator theme!
By the way... Can anyone else play the old Knightmare theme tune?  _________________ Seek for answers in the mundane, with hope for answers in the fantastic

| | In tablature when you see something like "B/C" what does it mean? Does it mean a quick change between chords? |

| If its a chord it means a slash chord which is a normal chord with a different bass note i.e. a B chord with a C bass note(bit odd though). A common one is C/G - a C chord with an added G bass note: 3rd fret Top E string. If it's not a chord I'm not sure. |
