Guitar stuff

Just to break up the wall of text I thought I'd post the guitar stuff in a new post. First song is 'Winter Solstice' by The Tea Party. It was recorded quite a while ago, hence the sweater and why I'm so skinny. Gross. Current weight gain=a positive for me. Watching the video I also realize I could never be a rock star, cause I just don't have a 'rock star face'. I don't make cool faces, I just totally zone out and like super focus. It's not a struggling focus it's just like a mindless focus, where I literally think of nothing and the notes just come. Anyways, second video I did recently, yes even though I'm in a sweater. No head in this one, just my body. The song is 'Sultans of Swing' by the Dire Straites. Not perfect, I don't think, but meh. What're you gonna do? Complain? Do it, I dare you.

EDIT: As an aside, Sultans is played in a tuning slightly sharper than standard, so it might sound off in parts as a) it's not a definite art, my tuning to random stuff that is, and b) either my strings are dying or my neck is warped cause things sometimes go out of tune too quickly.

Ramblings are a valid form of blogging too. I'll need to watch those guitar vids once I'm on a computer with sound. Thanks for the sidebar link!
