Ok, so I've dug up some stuff from an old drive I pulled out of a
burnt up laptop and guess what I found... A vid of me doodling some fingerpicking! Honest to god, I think I've degraded since this vid, which I shot around '07/'08 while I was still in the Army (That was my barracks room in Mannheim, DE). I barely pick up the guitar anymore. In fact, I broke a string on it, and that poor thing has been broken for like 5 months now. I'm neglecting it. I promise I'll put some new Martins on her. Maybe make a new vid while I'm at it, too. Anyway, here's what I guess I remember was just a little loop I made up on the acoustic, back when I first started getting into finger-picking. Should be pretty obvious how unorthodox I am, but whatever. It's good times. I don't have an explanation for the hood and all. I mean, it was cold as shit there, but I'm pretty sure I was more embarrassed to be fully identified. |

I picked up mines the other day even though it's missing one of the strings. I started to just strum it a bit and a song slowly started to form as far as lyrics. My chorus is pretty fleshed out now. I just need to work on the verses.

To be honest, I need to get back on it. Although I'm completely locked into the way I strum. You notice I only use three fingers on particular strings, and it's EXTREMELY hard for me to get away from that. Still, to this day, I do the same kind of strumming/picking, and it aggravates me to no end that I can't move beyond it. Grrr!!!! Quote:
