Well we've begun! Almost a dozen showed up and we did some basics. It seems like a slow beginnings to some, of course, but you have to start somewhere! Soon we'll be playing whole songs. And, guaranteed, ALL will be challenged!
Please note: Session 1 will be offered again on Tuesday, November 25 from 7:00 to 7:30 a.m.
Here's what we worked on:
Playing out of tune/out of time. Playing in tune/in time (to "Hot Cross Buns").
Demonstration of different ways to tune.
A note on volume, etiquette (hand up, you stop, look - it's a musician thing).
Learning the notes on the bass E string.
Warm-ups (finger positioning, feedback from the guitar).
Learning some chords: G C D am
ROCK ON, RAIDERS!
