Tonight was another night in the studio where the electric won out.
It was all about two things tonight, and much like last night, those two things were:
1) 100 Riffs
and
2) The Fab Four
I looked at a few of the riffs surrounding "Day Tripper" in the list. Not necessarily in great detail, but just to get some of the basic shapes and ideas underneath my fingers tonight. I know there are some details to be worked out still, but I really feel like I'm making some progress in getting more of this little challenge down pat. Still wishing there was a fast and easy way to get that video put on DVD, so I could take it into the studio and put it on the big TV in there.
As for the Beatles thing, I've wanted to have a lesson unit on them since the moment I started laying out what I thought the practice binder ought to be. I took a brief glance at a couple of songs tonight, just to get some sort of idea what I'd be up against if I went for it and decided to start learning things from the complete scores at the drop of a hat. It would be an insanely intense experience, but one that would be amazingly beneficial. Might have to pick a few songs at least, if not try to create something all encompassing.
There are so many ways that I can get better, and new opportunities seem to crop up every day. The Mrs. has already billed tomorrow afternoon as a "prime homework time" for her, which means I should be able to get into the studio for a big chunk of time. I'm already looking forward to it.
