2 Questions...

Unread post by Don_Linthorne » Tue Aug 03, 2004 2:06 pm

First off I can't figure out the song that jane likes can anyone tab it forme with the words... if that makes any sense. Like telling me what to play when.

Second off, When I play I find it really hard to sing and play at the same time. Even talking throws my timing off. Can anyone offer me any suggestions as to what can help.

practice...the more you play the guitar part the easier it is to start talking and then eventually singing with it...you gotta know it backwards and forwards. tho on some songs it helps to know what words and chords line up, if you understand what im saying, just to help you keep it together. practice practice practice

Song that jane likes is like the easiest dave song, i mean it uses only the basic chords and basic strumming. You just gotta keep going, take a break for a day or have someone who can't play listen to you and see if they have any advice(sometimes that really does help).
What other dave songs can you play?

P.S. I can't play STJL worth a damn either (that F to C chord kills me :? )
