A couple of weeks ago I did the last frontier by Redgum, and I decided I would play another one of their songs this week, a more upbeat song called Long Run. This song didn’t really teach me anything new, but I’m at the point now where I’m fairly comfortable with what I know, I just need to hammer in the ability to change chords quickly and practice my general playing.
I also tried to focus on my strumming this week, because this is song is really simple with its chords so I figured I had to create the drive and intensity of the song with interesting and strong strumming patterns. I would write down a strumming pattern I came up with, but to be honest I more or less vibed it as I was practicing it and used trial and error mid song to get a nice groove.
