Guitarin'

So...
I have had my guitar for a little bit now. I go in spurts where I play a lot, and then I don't. Right now, I'm playing a lot...every night for an hour at least. My fingers are gettin' used to it and are all calloused pretty good. :)

I can now play a variety of songs...here's my list:

Island in the Sun - Weezer
Dreamin' - Weezer
I'm gone, I'm going - Lesley Roy (I found this song on Rock Band 2)
I don't care - Fall out Boy
Decode - Paramore
I caught myself - Paramore
Here we go again - Paramore
I'm yours - Jason Mraz (for Laurie)
Linger - The Cranberries
About a Girl - The Academy Is...
Phrase that pays - The Academy Is...

Seems like a bigger list than I thought it would. I really enjoy playing, and now that I'm getting the hang of things, I look forward to learning more songs, and more stuff! I'm truly grateful for music in my life, and I feel like I've accomplished something I should have done a long time ago. I'm my own Rhythm section - Drums, Bass (i got one), guitar!

I'm coveting you guitar skills right now. I wish I could play anything, well maybe not to triangle. And good for Laurie, I love Jason Mraz! I'll have to check out the Paramore songs, the only ones I now are crush, misery business,and pressure. Mike introduced Paramore to me while he was out here. ROCK ON!

Paramore is seriously one of my favorite bands! Everyone of the people in that band are amazing at what they do. You should see them perform live!!

That is awesome. That's really long list, I'm impressed. I'll have to hear you play when I get home. And that's not til April, so I'm guessing the list will be doubly long at least!

So, I think I deserve a concert. If I set it up, will you play?

Stacie said...

Oooooh, invite me to the concert. It can be at my new house!!!

I'm sorry, why do you deserve a concert? ;)

I'll play anytime... ;) I can even sing some of the songs while I play. :->

Chivaun you are amazing! I wish I had as much musical talent as you do, wish I were there to hear you play.
