I use this lick quite a bit. IMO this particular lick seems to bring a higher energy to not only the audience, but whatever band you may be playing with, you may get to the point where you're pushing your band mates as well into what I consider, another level. These are the small, but far from insignificant riffs, you have to pay attention to. Because these types of riffs could possibly get a pay raise for the band! Not to mention the GURLS❤❤❤❤❤

I almost missed that it is out, as it wasn't on display here in europe. Just an idea! ... Have fun in the next year and stay healthy

Hey Damian, I have a question, if you have only 30-45 minutes to practice and your an intermediate player, does it make more sense to learn and practice an entire song with solos for that time or spend it working on alternate picking, legato, and down strumming drills? I've been working on Johnny B. Goode for many months and it's coming along nicely but I haven't been able to work on my picking drills. After I get Johnny B. Goode down, I'm wondering if I should go back to the picking drills or learn another song. Speed has been a challenge for me in the past.
