Welcome to Chordie Steve,

      First off I would like to come to Jerome's defense, he has posted some very useful info, and has been there to answer questions as long as I can remember being here on chordie. I do think if I called you an expert everything would be cool but it's a little different refering to one's self. That seems to have gotten alot attention. I think if your intentions are good everything will be cool.

Thanks,  But I think it is in the camera It has an external mic input and that works ok with a mic plugged in. When I unplug the mic it will not switch back to the internal mic.

Huge improvement, I know at times a guy would like to take off and shred the neck, but phrasing is a big thing in lead playing.

Good Job!

I think I'll just keep workin on my 3 chords and 3 songs!

Yeh, Russ I was so bummed out about the audio on my vid camera, but it was such a wonderful weekend. Things couldn't have been much better, including the weather was just beautiful all weekend and the entertainment was topnotch. I am dragging tail today too much fun for this old guy I guess. Now I have to start practicing up for next year!

Howdy,

Thanks Roger,  Hey Tops, I have used that sight also and it is a good one. I have to go to the Bighorn Mountain Festival in the morning for three days of pickin. I will post some pics and maybe some vids of a friend of mine that is camping next to me.She is I am guessing now somewhere in the 75-80 age bracket and just an incredible upright  bass player. She was a music teacher before she retired and is just awesome I feel blessed to be able to play with her.
   Back to bass walks, I think this is the first step for rythym players to get their fingers walking, instead of just holding down the chords for dear life.

I think I would much rather be the "Unofficial King of Scotland"  than the "King of Pop" never been a pop music fan. Maybe  too much on the sissy or sappy side. There ain't nothin about Trains, momma,pickup trucks, prison or gettin drunk. I guess to each his own.

Hello and welcome to Chordie,

  Most songs are in 4/4 timing and that means 4 beats per measure alot of country and folk songs have a 1,4,5 progression and your example probably is  a G C D progression which is a 1,4,5 meaning if you count up the scale from G the C is the fourth and D is the fifth. Ok  so alot of three chord songs have 1 measure of the G chord and switch to the C chord for 1 measure then the D chord may have 2 measures and back to the G chord. It is a good habit to count out loud or to yourself to get keep the beat and get used to counting in 4's.
     When helping some folks new to guitar I count out the beats like the melody goes so they get the feel of the 4/4 timing thing.
Oops I  accidently deleted the vid I wanted to post.

Wow, Ken 10 pints of beer to get warmed up. Lets see that is about 16 cans of good ole budlight but yours probably has more horsepower I would have been havin a good ole time too!

Hey Russ,

It is a video I made with a camcorder,but I just want to use the audio portion of it. I know it can be done, I will have to do a little more research I guess.
