Nice set of finger exercises, but they should be in the Guitar tutorials, tips and lessons forum. Thread moved.
yes it seems a little standard ,wussy!!!! but i don't want to play like kirk i want to play like me , and enjoy every moment of it , wether its wrong,I'll experiment with it till i get it right he's a good guitarist but we can't hang on to loose dreams , The fun of music is figuring it out 4 myself , I practice to be better 4 me , make original song , Most of the times I came in here 4 lyrics in hindi, I don't look 4 tabs , thats taking away the fun!!!! Play on.
