Satch's Brother John & Guitar Carnage
So uhm yeah howdy hey. Just rambling on a Friday because I can. So my left hand is tired from trying to stretch me fingers upon all corners of me accoustic fretboard to play Satch's short but sweet Brother John thing that's on his first album. When I first started trying to finger it out with a .mid file & some guitar tab I thought, aw to heck with it. Especially after finding that Classical Gas stuff by Tommy Emmanuel. But I pressed through the fingering for Bro. John figuring that if I can get it ok on me accoustic it will be much more easier on me electric. I'm still causing havoc to me fingers with trying to get better at Satch's Tears In The Rain. I wonder if the guitar wonders have a hard time playing their own songs where they stand up there on stage in dread of having to somehow make it through the next song or riff or what have you. If they do you wouldn't see it in their faces or their hands.
So I'll continue practicing these things whilst venturing into the realm of first learning the notes of Eddie's Cathedral then learning how to do the volume swell. I stumbled upon this guy's site looking for info about how to play Cathedral & what delay settings to use. He goes on & on & on & says the same things over & over again but it was interesting to watch. He has other vids about Eddie's playing & such that I might watch.
