Another really good day today.
I got into the studio around 9:45 or so tonight, with the intention of reading the next chapter in the Rooksby book from last night, and seeing if I could make heads or tails of where I sit with my lyrical block. Instead of doing that, however, I wound up working on the following:
1) I put another couple of songs into the notebook I've got for songs I've figured out off of radio and records. If I can ever find all of the scraps of paper I've jotted that sort of stuff down on in the past, that notebook will fill up in a hurry. For now, however, I shall content myself with filling it up one song at a time.
2) I worked a bit more on the block chords lesson from the Acoustic Goldmine book, and then turned the page to the Travis-picking lesson for a few minutes. I'll probably go back through the first couple lessons in this section again, just to make sure I've got it all down, but it still felt good to move forward.
3) I started setting aside some songs I know I'll want to include in a set list at some point. A little bit of Dylan, some Wallflowers, and a bit of Justin Townes Earle.
All told, a really good day, and a day that built on the progress of yesterday, which is awesome.
