Until the breadline solo, years later junior got fired too.

I went through classical with nylon strings and never got very far. Went to jazz guitar and got stuck in boxes. These are the notes in the first position, this week 2nd position, 3rd week 3rd position. I gave up. Then metal broke out with metallica and van halen and I then realized get out of the box. But when Marty came along I was blown away. This guy hits more notes than the guitar has.

@Ironsights51 Ай бұрын

One thing you learn from watching thrash metal guitarists talk about their influences is that Kiss is single-handedly the most underappreciated band in the history of rock and metal. I don’t think I’ve ever seen an 80s metal guitarist not give them huge praise.

@heli0s101 10 күн бұрын

"My finger just would not hold down the string, and it hurt so incredibly bad, that I'm like 'Well, I guess I'm not cut out for guitar because there's no way my finger can do it.'" A sentiment every beginner has had - just focus on other stuff, then come back to what's giving you trouble and you might just find it's easy. If not, keep focusing on other stuff and come back to it. Repeat as necessary.
