Guitaring

So uhh, (how many have my posts started like that, haha) I'd been granted permission by Andrea to join in her PT practice this past saturday to play a bit of guitar. Now for those of you that don't know, I don't own an amp because it is too expensive; I do not own one of those adaptor things to plug my earphones in either. With this lack of resourse, I cannot practice guitar on a regular basis-electric guitar, that is. The only time I do get to play with my electric is once every three weeks for an hour or so during practice at church. Whenever I do get to play though, I have to sing as well.. Yeah that's right, I sing, not very good at it but I do indeed sing.

Being able to join in on practice was pretty cool I think. I got to just play guitar and not have to think about singing. When I was heading over to church, I told myself "I can finally have a chance to just make music with the guitar, see how much I've improved." Playing today alongside Jonny and Deryk was pretty cool. It definitely brought back the times before I actually led a worship team of just being able to focus on guitar. When I started playing, I said to myself, "wow, I've gotten so much better without even practicing for ages!" I was pretty excited for sure. It's pretty cool how knowledge of music can translate into sweet new things on the guitar for me. A weird thing about me is that everytime I learn something new about music, whether that be a chord, a progression, a sequence, or whatever, I am able to see a whole load of stuff I can apply it to on either songs, piano or guitar. I don't know, I look forward to the next coolest thing I learn on the guitar.. Maybe some different patches and stuff

My passion for the guitar has been renewed, the joy I get from it is like none before, I feel like learning guitar songs, and definitely look forward to my next guitar jam session with whoever... Guess what? I seem to have forgotten what I wanted to say again. Thank you msn for distracting me while I'm trying to blog! But while one thought was lost, another has risen.

These are the guitar products I am currently saving up for:

Line 6 POD X3 Live
A good chunk of durable picks (100 or so)

The POD X3 Live is rather expensive... So that's stab me in the chest pretty hard when I save enough money and buy it.

Keep on rockin' to it. Please don't stop the music.
