Good thread Chris Sight reading is a great thing to brush up on, as it can open doors of opportunity. I plan on keeping on trying to overcome the physical restrictions of forearm and wrist flexion, extension and rotation in order to play more songs on guitar with simultaneous vocals. Due to the forearm being busted in seven places, the bone callouses have restricted the movement, and I have to try to make my fingers and hand rotate and flex to cover... so thats one painful thing to attempt... oh yes, and (reaches for the codiene).... I think that we can all improve and benefit from playing with other musicians, and the more we do this the more capable we become, so I intend to seek out some others for jams, and try to listen to them, observe them, replicate or try to replicate some of thier techniqes in my own little interpretive way haha.. As for composing, I may attempt some composing, but never feel motivated to do such. however my approach is(has been) really to switch on the recorder, and capture spontaniety, Maybe a more methodical style of composing will reveal itself to me, and I will be able to deliberately write stuff insread of accidentally.....
