Music is Win you should do guitar / song covers

Can you please do a video on my chemical romance?

The best method I have is taking on massive songs. Instead of learning short easy songs, I find long and difficult ones. Some songs I’ve used to get better are Achillies Last Stand and Rosetta Stoned.

putting in so so so much time

One way I got better at guitar is by watching your videos!

lool

He's just giving common examples of mistakes people make

@@briancobb8997 hes just making a joke

this is definitely directed at me

I am actually having a break, my fingers are burning 👍🤘

I have some cotton candy and flashy lights

I’m looking for a drummer! This is perfect. I can assure you that what Hollan plays is offering you in cotton candy and flashy lights, I can triple it

HEY YOU, get in the van!

Why?

Problem, Tyler just did... lol

yes, everything we do practice, we are getting better over time, but for guitar learning and playing, we all know we get easily discouraged and depressed, and that is shit and i still dont know why it is like that. maybe because guitar playing is a form of art, thats why we easily feel guilty or shamed that cant play good (in our opinion) enough. i still dont know.

I was discouraged for a while until I visited my mom and she had a video of my 2nd month of guitar. It really made me look back and realize how far I’ve come.

That's the most difficult task i've ever been faced with,, didn't survive it.. Just kept practicing and got burnt out,, seriously.. I picked up the guitar at the age of 20, 23 now, and i've loved it more than i've loved anything ever.. and i really wish i could make some kind of a career outta this.. Or just at least be able to afford having the time to practice and play music... Which begs the question: How the hell am i supposed to take a break?! I'm at my last months of college rn,, and i was practicing so hard because i knew that the minute i graduate,, it's just constant grinding and there'll be no time for shit else... Makes it really hard to relax and appreciate, etc...

My mom’s banjo teacher (she started learning banjo at 68) has her record once a month and listen to her progression.

I looked at my feet and noticed the sandals and socks and was like wow😂 how'd he know

i like most genres except pop country

Yeah.

Yes

DEATH METAL

But they are just so fun to play

I feel personally attacked

"You just have to try even if you don't believe in yourself" As everything in your life mate

@@Haise-sandisabled people can literally play guitar hands free. No way a person is not able to learn something they are passionate about

You can do it man

You will do great for sure bro Good wishes from India ❤️

Seriously though guys thanks. For a bit there I went through a rough patch that made me wanna quit playing. The toxic girlfriend part was true though hahah

lmaoooo yo i can relate sadly

There’s only so many G strings you can pluck 😏

Corona is best for practising I've played for around 8 months and this has been the time I've most evolved with guitar playing just practice

@@mortisedleech7409 Right on!

Now i have a band with a guitarist that never played a drummer without drums and a random friend with a keyboard (i do play guitar for a month or 3 now)

Lmao

@@marieke1219 yess

Keep going, exact same thing here. Expect when I see other guitarists in my class they might be better then me at strumming but they can’t do bar chores at all. You will get better. Or if ya want you can focus on one thing for like a day or two. We got time, quarantine isn’t gonna end in a while

ify bro.

The solution to your problem is right in front of you. Practice one thing to perfection then move onto the next. Then you will be able to play them all good

you just described me perfectly

Break that rusty cage bro ;)

This hit right in the feels

😭

That’s why I stick to playing ‘the girls from ba sing se’

damn, I keep playing the avatar's love. The nostalgia is enough to kill a baby elephant.

Damn

How?

@Mr. E. Man Exactly. You can't just "put some heart and soul into those simple notes" (this reads like it's off some shitty blog article) because you have to be deeply connected to whatever it is you're playing for that "feeling" to be there, even then it can still just be something tangible like the player having good vibrato. Terrible "advice".

Now I know why Stevie T Does those faces

Not how it works soul won't make me play through fire and flea perfectly I hate seeing this

Robert Fripp would beg to differ

THIS!!! THIS THIS THIS THIS THIS!!! A MILLION TIMES THIS!!!

ok then i feel like this rn: Current objective:SURVIVE

That was amazing.

I am at this phase LOL its so brutal and time consuming all at the same time

Same

I don’t know man, rocksteady is pretty cool

Yeah I think they were two separate genre Tyler was talking about there - Blues is not Bebop Jazz. It was Blues and then Jazz.

bebop and blues is one thing, but socks with sandals.....? oh dear:)

Or they do but aren't that into it

This is like, my life except most hobbies I ever had...

@@malachibozikis4094 oh nice idea like hire someone, hah!! nice

@@r4v3nner not necessarily hire them, but just try to make friends and see if theyre up to jam? haha

I want to stress #2. I played bass when I was about 9 years old until I got to high school, where I discovered....other things. They were good, fun things that I don't regret...but I let go of my bass playing. I just bought a Fender Jazz bass a couple of weeks ago and it's been fun and I'm happy; I play it everyday...but it's not like it was when I was younger. The drive and excitement just isn't quite there like it used to be. So all you young whipper-snappers keep at it!

@@yocraigst I hear ya. I've been playing drums for 25 years, but somewhere along the way I've lost the spark... the joy. It's still fun, I still identify as a drummer, but it's not a priority. Recently I started picking up my guitar, and playing with my 10 year old son. It was fun, but I can see he's losing steam. Gotta figure out if I can reignite that spark for both of us.

@@yocraigst thank you for sharing this I'm 13 years old playing metallica and i have so much fun... your comment is just saying what i wanted to to: keep on it. And that feels good, so thank you😁🙂

Then stop watching the sports channel

check an interview with jacob collier he gave me alot of freedom in my music

Yup, that's certainly holding me back. Lol.

U will be, maybe u have not a guitar but u are here because of a reason...

@@mahdirajabi313 what? My poor brain what on earth is this riddle like comment

yup, rly stoppin me

If you can get a hold of some string, cardboard, scissors and tape you can make a soundless guitar. People will always enjoy listening to you play😁😁😁

@NPC 177O13 the joke went over your head

you Buckethead?

@Naggingaphid9 bruh that's the joke

That’s bull

Bro how long have you been playing if your perfect you should have been practicing 13 hours per day for the past 18 years but I don't think you can do that tbh

Lol and I'm a bass player

similar thing happened to me, i was playing crazy train but when i looked down at my guitar i saw a squier bass guitar and my hand swallowed the pick so i was playing with my fingers. Next thing i know i'm playing primus covers

would you like some cotton candy?

Matt we are tired of your shit on Wii sports resort basketball. You shouldn't be able to beat someone who is using a toad Wii remote with Wii motion plus inside. It's bs

The worst was "Recommended for you"

i believe holding hands under warm water actually reduces time needed for stretching because it lossens the muscles/joints, as well as gets the skin soft

Nope

Practice makes permanent, and only perfect practice makes perfect. I agree it comes down to practice when it comes to most players because most players aren't even real players are just owners who don't practice. but people who really want to get better, usually attempt to do things on a daily basis that they haven't done before. They will hit frustrating plateaus where they have to lay off the instruments for a few weeks only to find out they're better when they come back. It's like lifting weights and trying to become as strong as possible. You have to approach it passionately but intelligently becauseOverreaching is the classic downfall of anybody that loves what they're doing. You have to know when enough practice for the day is enoughAnd burn out is a very real thing not permanently with her a period where you need to just not see the instruments and give each other space

The only thing is, idk wtf to practice

Yep.

@@CheiDaFrio a comprehensive guitar book, or a set of comprehensive guitar videos should do (example: guitars for dummies: 7 books in 1)

Learn some scales man

@Robb Brown bass is a meme in the music industry but I have respect for the power it adds to a song

Thank you..it helps a lot.

Thanks a lot! Was just going to make one. This helped! :)

B.B. King clearly be the best tho

Jew Adolf Really sucks. Man had legendary talent and he lost it because his body became disabled I feel so bad for him. He is an awesome person

Everyone should buy his albums, don’t steal his music. He deserves to get paid.

Lukas Rydelius CORRECT

I was literally listening to Altitudes before this and when I heard Tyler mention him I was like ‘oh shit no way’ he’s a god!!

The guy writes better music with his chin than we do with everything...

Everytime someone disses bass, Davie uploads a video.

Ofc

I was waiting for someone to say this😂

@@KaShuto sweet

Brother, I had this problem. The guitar is so versatile there is so much to learn! But at least for me, the problem was not being overwhelmed it was being too inconsistent with practice. Some day just sit down, write everything down you wanna master and start the process!

Hey just empty your plate. And learn one thing at a time like first learn a scale then learn a solo it really helps

Joonas Tikkanen I also deal w/the inconsistency problem from time to time. Not that I don’t play everyday, cause I do; but what “you” practice matters. I find myself noodling quite a bit; usually it’s within a scale i’m learning so I guess it’s “okay”.

Peter's Place totally; lately i’ve been adopting the “learn one scale, then learn another; then combine them”. That’s really helped a lot. Same with chord extensions and inversions.

Chris Giannola Music Oh shit, there’s more of us? Thank you so much for posting this, this has been the biggest hurdle i’ve yet to get over :]

Me before quarantine: "oh I can play smoke on the water... and... and stairway to heaven and... did I mention I can play smoke on the water?" Me after quarantine: "yeah I can play Metropolies and Neon and Eruption and Thunder Surrender, but it's just not *challenging* enough!"

fender play gives 3 months free so do that lmao

I try to make original music (never use a lyric generator just don't)

All the good music has already been made. Every guitarist is a cover artist these days weather they want to admit or not.

J What do mean there’s no more good music to be made

Terrible outlook to have on music but alright

I always compose somdthing original

I'm surprised he used Phobia for rock. One of my all time favorites.

if you don't have a great sense of timing your not going to go far, the guy playing the drums , hes going to be like, its either you gain a sense of timing or I quit this band, ill admit I had a guy tell me , he said you sound good, and you play nice, but your timing is way off my man, I asked him , whats the best way to improve my timing , he tells me ,start playing along with all your favorite songs ,but turn everything way down including my own guitar so I could hear both the song and my guitar clearly, and it did help me to stay in sync with the songs guitar player , pretty soon , I applied it to soloing , at 1st it was hard , even though the lead to the song was still in time with the rest of the band I was still having trouble , I don't know exactly why this was happening , I was playing along with the songs , it sounded great, soon as the lead started I ran into my problems , I soon found out why I was having trouble, when a guitarist goes into his or her lead there in a groove ,like they could feel it the notes they were playing had passion in,em the way they bend there notes , the feeling in those notes and how long they would hold a single note but they gave there notes feeling ,like a violinist its just so passionate I had found my issue with why my timing was off, it was all in my soloing and how much time I spent on each note, but I began to apply more heart to my playing giving my notes feeling, emotion , music is from the heart im glad I stuck to it, I continue to play as often as I can ,simply because I LOVE IT !!! I wont play if im tired that's a stone waste of time, I need to be feeling fresh, rested and ready to rock, do my warm ups , get my fingers all warmed up and nice and flexible ,then I begin to play new things , im constantly on the search for different guitarists, for new inspiration , I don't allow myself to become hung up on any one guitarist , I listen to a vast collection of all time great guitarists from B.B.King, BACH , beegee,s Queen , R.E.O. speed wagon , list is way ,way too long to list them all, lol, but you get the idea, its like capt Kirk, to seek out strange new guitarists check,em out, listen to what they have to offer if anything at all, sometimes some don't but that's life, some suck, some are awesome but you never stop searching inspiration is hard to come by , I love to listen to anything once ,at least once just to see because you just never know , so instead of letting something go by you, don't give it a try give it a listening to, see what its about, you just never know, don't deny yourself the what very well could be something awesome to you, so at least give it a chance, I mean the whole time your doing this your just becoming a better musician , its the path I chose a long time ago, I don't regret seeing my very 1st electric guitar and completely falling in LOVE WITH IT !!! I was a 9 year little boy with a paper route ,I used my paper route money to buy that guitar ,yeah it was junk but to a 9 year old boy it was the most awesome thing I had ever laid my eyes on , I was a young dumb stupid kid , but one with a heart an empty heart in search of something special, seeing that cheap K-Mart special for $60.00 bucks without another thought I bought it and brought it home and tore it out of its box and started picking at the strings and I haven't looked back since , and I wouldn,t change a thing if I had it to do over again there some things I would have done differently as far as playing the guitar that I wouldn't have changed at all , I just kept telling myself its only going to get better , its only going to keep getting better , and get better it sure as hell did , so many nights I wanted to give up, bust it up and throw it out the window, I would get so frustrated with trying to learn how this thing works , I was poor as hell, I could afford much, a chord book, a few video,s it was SUPER TOUGH in the beginning , so many times I thought of giving up, I couldn't , I looked into myself I felt it in my heart I had to play , damn it I was going to learn how or die trying , I was determined to learn how to play the guitar and learn I did, it took several long years of frustrating nights, then they became happy nights when I started playing and playing better it made me feel good about myself I had taught myself how to play the guitar , fuck what anyone says , if you feel it in your heart im talking down deep in your heart to do whatever it is, you should do it, don't listen to the haters , they cant figure out there own lives let alone anyone else,s , so follow your heart, and fuck what anybody says , its your life you came in it alone and you damn sure are going to die in it alone so fuck,em get down with your bad self and follow your hearts dreams ,fuck the dumb shit , go for it, you only get one chance make it worth it, give it all you got, if you don't and do it half assed that will be the results your going to get, half assed , you want to be a half assed guitarist or musician ?? I sure as shit don't , so don't cut any slack ,be determined, be dedicated, and committed to whatever it may be you love doing but be sure to give it all you got to give baby , you only have 1 ticket what are you going to do with yours ?? this has been a story about one poor kid growing up in the city with a dream of making music using a guitar , sincerely, W.H.W. 4-25-20 what a ride its been ,but I wouldn't trade it for nothing .

I also observed this in my playing but recently I committed myself to not skip a routine for even a single day.

@@kieroto5372 I try not to forget either, but after starting working from home, it became a bit harder. But also, it's kinda good to have resting days too. I finally understood how to play 16th notes, which is nice. Sometimes I try to not play and listen to tracks I know have techniques or concepts I'm trying to improve on.

Meditation.....

Or perhaps you just aren't practicing enough. I'm able to learn by having someone correct my mistakes, and that was it at first. When I first started, I got one lesson a month. Imagine how boring doing the same thing over one month is. As well as the fact everyone pressured me into trying Harder and practicing more, I quit. Now, I go on my own schedule, practice as much as I want to. At one point, I went twice a week to lessons. I love guitar now, and can play from tabs and online videos because I've mastered the basics. It's almost one year, now

ryanknowstecmobowl what basic ? Plz wanna know on electric plz

Jorge Chávez No, you're right , you can't give 100% of your effort to multiple things at once (the fallacy of multitasking.) But, can you give 100% of your effort to the one thing you are doing right now? You can't do everything, but what you can do - do well. Incremental improvements do add up, be patient and it will happen.

Thats the spirit!
