man you really make profound sense - than at first when I read ( my problem amigo- soy loco) - How after a "gig" you have that/those " down" times- and you have to -absolutely - just play------ as I think, and would say have" to re- validate" the fact that you can do that "stuff " on that instrument - Man Brother Forderik no truer nor wise words - when I really give it the thought that I think you meant - ( I hope you forgive me , I have no ides how to quote feature here and it may seem like I am cherry picking ( not ) . brother I agree - it just hit me with full impact of your words -( yeah I didn't get to ride any bus) -lol-
Wanna play a 1965 Gibson melody maker D - its got p90s (old old 90s ) instead of the original " lipperstickers" - you may have heard that rode in those things originally. - Man I would really like to Jam - and you know why - Good as one might be you still have to re- validate- I don't care who you are - validate - after going few days of not playin- that -yeah man- that's what I can do with that thing - and you know what------ its all groovy man .
Che man if you lose it totally( hearing) - you can always feel the bass- the beat - the lowest rumble and that aint no baloney ( no derogatory ) - reminds me of a story .....
peace

It's depressing when things plateau and get stagnant. My self-worth hinges on it a lot. Sometimes it's just a matter of picking up the guitar; occasionally something completely unanticipated will happen. Learning and adding new material to keep the repertoire fresh also helps. I wish I could remember what I wrote to you a couple weeks ago in that PM; it was something insightful, if memory serves. :D (Maybe we could resume via email, since the PMs here don't always work?) I would absolutely love to play that Gibson sometime! Nothing like the old single-coil P90 sound. I look forward to it. tty soon.
Matt C. Hoffman:
I understand the language you are using - I work thru plateau s , and it does suck when you feel like there is stagnation- for me that is doesn't happen as much as say when I was younger - the plateau-s seemed higher and harder to traverse so to speak- as one constantly is learning their instrument - I think back to my first 6 months just trying to master the d to a c thing and g thing - but now its not even a thought it just happens effortlessly thinking back then will I ever get it- god my fingers hurt - and the like ...
Maybe it is because I know so many songs and when I work thru my stuff as I am always practicing I work thru 10 15 songs at a time - the repertoire is always changing the way even the way I play songs is really never really the same though , I do have a very good sense of meter and beat and time etc which is important - lol not to sound like I am all over the place and then that one - as I think wow I have not played that one in a while -
I find that songs tend to grow in you when you don't play that particular song in a while - it is almost like they mature or if you will in you when you haven't played that one in a while and you dig that cherished nugget back up- I notice it - as you play a song that has not been played in a while as you bring it back to life ( there is that it is alive thing again -lol you resurrect that song ) you hear a different way to play it and you hear as you play it how it has grown and that feeling is a life giving gift/force .
you understand- I reckon - I trust- I hope - my younger bro-homind talks about your band - not gonna mention - wouldn't be prudent - though he does and it is cool. You touched him thru your music - tis very cool man.
Heck man I don't want to post my e mail here - lol- and why not Matt? big smiles - Froderik there are many that have it and since the messaging thing doesn't work so well - shoot anyone who has it is welcome to shoot it to you - - I don't know if you are telling me to shut up - which I doubt or you want to take this private which maybe everyone else reading would like - I don't know you are welcome to e mail me man - feel free.
And lets stop talking- (like that is going to happen ) about music and just jam - seriously.
It does a body and soul good ......and the beat goes on .
peace
Matt
