Tough Days

[StratLover2]

Hi all!

Well, the accounting test I studied for did not go my way today, but what is most frustrating was I was only a few percentage points from making the outscore, and onto of that, I still have a bit of a cold. Combine those factors and I was fellin pretty lousy. After I calmed down a lot, I picked up Torrance and played over this Backing Track I created and let my pent up rage loose. I used distortion as an effect to showcase my angry emotions, not to hide any flaws or anything, but to serve as an additional coloring to the music.

Sounds like some excellent venting.

Thanks!

I must say, after playing the guitar, I feel like my mind has been re-balanced in a very good way.

And this was AFTER you'd calmed down a lot!!!???

Very sparky .....

I feel like my mind has been re-balanced in a very good way.

..... and to good effect. The guitar can be a great medicine to combat life's brickbats fired at you.

Yes, I feared that my disappointment and rage might have been too muchfor the guitar, or that I was going to magically play some heavy metal! The only time I can think of that I play coose to this isat our weekly sidewalk jams, and a pretty young lady walks by, then I just lose it, and do something like this.

I think that's the main reason we all play guitar!
Well played - you're getting better every time!
