my main problem with the blues is that I understand its theory and all the major techniques - trills, butterfly bends, high note bends, hammer-ons, pull-offs but I never got the "feel" - when I play it, it sounds pretty mechanical/inorganic - I suppose it's because I haven't traded my soul to the devil's and never had a woman I loved treated me REALLY bad

if you want to play "blues", you gotta live the "blues", mesays
