re: #73 WindUpBird
Here’s what happened to me, I studied and practiced my ass off for about a year, realized I still sucked, started tuning drop-D so I could play power chords with one finger, then amused myself for a while with spacey guitar effects, fiddling for hours with my Line 6 virtual amp effects thingy, then I gave up. :D

Do Your Own Thing
