Sure, I'll get my friend Rick (GilmoursAngst on here) to upload it, cos I tried uploading on YouTube with fail written all over it!

Simon

Hi Simon

well done. Like I said yesterday you have improved a lot. That tone was a bit psychedelic though!

Matt

Lmao, i swear its the laptop mic though it waters everything down! but thank you Matt Means a lot

Simon

lmao, distortion is used but again, the sound quality of the mic is not so good, hense why it sounds so bleh lol!

and I've been playing since i was 15, but with having dyspraxia, it does make it slow to learn guitar!

I'm going to be honest and give you some constructive criticism on some points.

First thing I reacted on was a chord in the beginning that sounds
like it doesn't belong there. The tapping part is ok, but the parts
that come after that coulx need some work. Like some of the
bends sounds way off and I'm thinking you're losing the beat
a few times too, but it can be fixed pretty easy with practicing,
practicing and more practicing.

Like you said when you came down to see us, co ordination problems because of dyspraxia hinder your sense of rhythm and keeping in time.

I suppose it is harder learning some one elses piece than playing your own piece/improvisation because of this?

dyspraxia, its where hand eye cordination is not on par, which also can have balance troubles, lucky im sorted on the balance part, but hand eye cordination, still not as good.

However, I also have Dyslexia, which I can't explain on my part, it's something I've recently been diagnosed with but I do see on paper the text move into each other when im reading off a page, which can be troublesome.

Indeed, you hit the nail on the head there Matt, I do struggle to learn songs because of the dyspraxia hidering sense of rythmn and keeping in time.

I do find it a lot easier to play my own stuff as there is no pressure about timing and rythmn.

Bad I know but my metronome was my own heart beat.
