Hi just wanted to share somthing I learned this afternoon at a guitar seminar by Ken Bonfield.  To my surprise there is a proper way to hold your guitar and a proper way to strum, pick..etc...Of course I most certainly am not a seasoned player, but the info most definately raised my eyebrows.  I would suggest you look into this info and try to apply it.  I even learned the proper way to hold the neck and WOW so much less stress on my fingers and arm.  I feel very honored to have had the opportunity to be in this group with Ken Bonfield, what an amazing guitar player and teacher. Check him out.

Hi. I am new to this forum, but am familiar with chordie's great selection of music.  I started playing guitar about a year ago.  I play an acoustic  Washburn D-10S and just a few months ago bought another Washburn acoustic/electric WD10SCE.  I love them both and have had the opportunity of playing or "jamin" with a large group in my area.  It has been a great time and such a confidence booster.  I am going to be playing and singing with a few people on the weekend, I am scared to death....haha..I have been told I have a pretty good voice, but I can't seem to project it out.  Then to make matters worse..I can't seem to be able to play and sing together in front of people, but I can do it alone or just with one or two people.  Any suggestions??  Also I have started to take some more lessons to learn to pick...this is all pretty scary as I am over 50 and a female...If you have any suggestions I'd be greatful to hear them...thanks:)
