On this Thanksgiving weekend I would like to thank the people on this forum for the inspiration they have given me. After having set aside my guitar for many years out of sheer frustration, I picked it up 18 months ago and have played nothing but slack key. I have learned a lot on this forum, not the least of which is the love of this music. I can finally play "Moe Uhane" by sight and I almost have this sucker memorized! For me, this is a major accomplishment. Thanks to all of you who have one way or another helped along the way.
Happy Thanksgiving. Glad to hear that you've dusted off the guitar and started playing again. That is what it is all about - playing the music. Hana hou!
I have a similar past with guitar. I stopped playing for over 11 years.
This is what I learned after starting back with slack key: if you relax and try to let your music flow good things will happen. Nahenahe is a very important musical concept.
Thank you
