Thought I’d kick off some feedback. Trying to mix up these rhythm figures and stay in time! Alesis drum machine blues setting. Definately shuffle to my ear. 100bpm. Bit slow? Trying for staccato using some left hand muting. Didn’t try the rake, which is a nice technique, so maybe cover that again for me Ben? How are you muting? Close up might help.

Hey guys, looking forward to catching up later for our live hangout 🤘 6pm UK time. I’m thinking of teaching a little something from the course I’m in the process of creating. How does that sound? Or let me know if you have anything you want to chat about. Catch you soon 👍

So in the next couple of weeks, I'm going to start creating my first mini course. I've decided to do a mini course, rather than one HUGE course, as I think everyone struggles with different things, so if I can create mini courses that focus on just ONE particular problem, students will have more choice of which problem they want to focus on, without getting overwhelmed with a load of unnecessary information. These courses can then be laser-focused and super specific. I've come up with a bunch of ideas and wanted to get your thoughts on which sound the most interesting or the most useful. I'd like to eventually run these mini-courses as short workshops, so maybe once I've created the course, you guys can dive into them, and then we can do a short 4-week live bootcamp on the topic. I think you can vote for more than 1, and if you have any thoughts on this or additional ideas, let me know in the comments 👍 NB: Here are some other options that didn't fit in the poll: 11. Play awesome blues guitar by yourself (without a band) 12. Build your own blues loop to practice over 13. How to learn blues licks, use them, (and never forget them!) 14. How to develop your blues vocabulary (without learning 100 different licks!) 15. Spice up your minor blues solos at your next jam 16. Must know theory for blues guitarists that you can use (and that’s actually fun to learn) 17. How to improve your blues phrasing (without more scales, notes, or theory!)

Hi all, here’s an idea for a topic for discussion: the gear that we use, whether that’s for gigs, recording, or home practice.

Hey everyone, hope you’ve had a great weekend. So I wanted to suggest some times for our weekly hangouts that maybe the majority could attend. Even if not every week. Here are some suggestions that I can make: Tuesday 4pm UK / 11am ET / 8am PT Wednesday 6pm UK / 1pm ET / 10am PT Thursday 7pm UK / 2pm ET / 11am PT Let me know in the comments which of those work for you. I do have afternoons available too but not such friendly time zones for our US and Canadian members!
