Yeah I started working on some tougher Phish songs today, like Stash. I worked for a few hours on that because it was a lot of fun, but yeah there will be somedays where I won't play at all because i've been playing too much recently.

Heh, How long do I play.. lets see.. well, I stay up all night playing(about 6 hours) then during the day(about 3 hours) so I'd say about 9 hours a day.. you'd think i'd be better then I am, but i never bother learning new songs, mostly cause all the ones I don't know are raised B or baritone.. and I even know a few of them :-d

Playin the guitar(in my views) is only supposed to be fun. So if im not feelin it ill stop right away. More often then not, ill play at like 12 at night only cuz ive got nothin better to do. And besides, thats when i really get into it and i try to play a whole CD through.LS is my favorite. Hell, ill get into it soo much ill start doin the dave dance :D :lol: :oops: On a guess though, 4-5 hours daily, but then again sometimes i wont play at all. But since i just got my CHET, itll boost a couple of hours :D :wink:

i play whenever i can during the week, while watching tv or whatever...on the weekends i play a lot more...i really only keep track of practice by the progress i make. If i'm not making progress with a song/style, i need to practice more...that's how i look at it anyway
