    Announcement! The first group of "Expanded Blues Guitar" folks!

    Well, I think I found an error on page 18, at the top... Did you miss the middle 4 measures? You show them in the notation, but at the top, before the V chord, I think you missed: IV chord for 2 measures I chord for 2 measures

    Weekend Wrapup

    It's about time I checked in around here... Well, Saturday, I picked up a 6 month early 50th birthday present for myself - my first ever prescription glasses, complete with progressive bi-focal and self darkening lenses from Nikon... I didn't realize just how crappy my eyes have gotten over...

    I guess this is the right place for a song writing question.....

    For my current project, I've been writing lyrics with no music... Then, I work on coming up with various riffs, and choose a set of lyrics for it...

    Laptop Questions...

    I'm finally at the point where I "need" a laptop... I see plenty for around 400 bucks, some with windows 8 and some with windows 7... So, is there any preferred brand, or is it all Chinese junk, ultimately? And, what's your opinion of Windows 7 vs. 8?
