The impossible Van Halen riff
Plus, 5 levels of Petrucci's picking
I’ve Been Busy!
It has been one heck of a week! In addition to my 9-5, I’ve been teaching, working on this month’s songwriting challenge (check out all the posts at ChasingSound.com), and lots more. And if you’re reading this on Sunday, it’s actually my birthday!
With that being said, I’m going to go enjoy watching playoff hockey, spending some quality time with my family for Mother’s Day, and of course, playing way too many hours of the new Zelda game.
I didn’t want to leave you without some quality linkage for this week, so here’s everything I’ve been checking out over the past few days. I’ll be back with a full issue next week!
