lblanchardExcept for two pyrotechnic runs, the Four Bars o' Doom are definitely the most difficult part of the piece. I picked my way through the bridge this evening, deciphering the tablature note by note, and it will indeed be easier. Roy watched the Tommy Emmanuel instructional video I downloaded and was suitably awestruck. "This is a step up from Linda Cohen," he said. I'm sure he meant no disrespect to Linda, but I get what he meant.
Roy's going for a night out with the guys tomorrow -- a bunch of his friends get together on the odd Saturday night to compare pictures they've taken of trains and railroads. It used to be called "slide night" but just about everyone is digital now, so they show up with their SD cards or flash drives and one guy brings his projector.
While Roy is gone I am going to play that Countrywide thing to death, and probably play my fingers to death, too. I'd be really really really happy if at the end of the weekend I am able to fumble through a slightly stripped-down version (sans the pyrotechnic runs) even if it's at 1/4 speed and full of mistakes.
A work thing that I was a little worried about has come together nicely, too, so it has been a good week. Now, if it would only rain so that I won't have to spend an hour behind the hose tomorrow, my happiness would be complete.
I saw no fungus gnats today.
