Topic: Singing and playing.

Wasn't sure where to post this really. But, as I posted a little song I made up on here the other day and mentioned that I couldn't actually play and sing at the same time and folks told me to persevere with it, I thought this forum is as good as any to mention....nay, shout from the rooftops....I managed to do both tonight!  <img src="images/smiley_icons/icon_biggrin.gif" border=0 alt="Very Happy">



A small thing for many of you, I know. But for me it feels like I've smashed through a massive barrier. Fair enough the lyrics and appropriate chord didn't always manage to land bang on.....but hey, I've finally managed to do both.  <img src="images/smiley_icons/icon_biggrin.gif" border=0 alt="Very Happy">



Now all I need to do is figure out chords for my latest effort and I'm away. This time next year I'll be on telly! <img src="images/smiley_icons/icon_lol.gif" border=0 alt="Laughing">

Re: Singing and playing.

Hey Hey moddish!  Congratulations on getting your hands & voice working together.  Learning to sing & play is like learning to ride a bicycle. All of a sudden the necessary coordination just clicks together and you are zooming down the road.  Revel in your new-found skill and enjoy!

Re: Singing and playing.

Hi Moddish,


I am so glad it is coming together for you.


One word of advise though, before you go on the telly make sure that the legs are strong enough to take your weight <img src="images/smiley_icons/icon_lol.gif" border=0 alt="Laughing">
