Hello All, once again I am amazed and inspired by all of your playing!!

@planetfink @clempek @Idarrow and @Anyone1 who played House of the Rising Sun – I can’t wait to be able to play that one even remotely as well as you all! @shmu88 Georgia on my Mind was beautiful as was @marianne playing Gymnopelie, just amazing. I think I have the same Ukulele as you, but yours sounds so much better. I also want to mention how much I enjoyed @Katazumiri quartet of Whiskey Before Breakfast, a real toe tapper, and @Brettboy wishing you a quick recovery, looking forward to seeing your next post.

@Andrew I am so happy you put together the Pathways course, I was a little lost after I did the other beginner course, I like having the structure to follow, well done, I am also super happy there are these Summer Challenges, they really keep me practising and hopefully improving.

Here is my entry of Song 3 in the beginner section – Strumming and Adding a Back Beat 12 Bar Blues, this was actually the song I heard that introduced me to Rockclass101 and the reason I signed up, just loved that backbeat sound and wanted to learn how to do it. Im still finding the lick at the end a bit tricky, but its getting there 🙂

Thank you Andrew!!! Iv been trying to do this on my phone without a mouse, but now see that I can move the line that shows the end of the looped bar to include additional bars, I could not figure that out before for the life of me 😂, thank you again for your response, very much appreciated!

Hello all, here is my attempt at Cielito Lindo. I felt I could have used another solid month of practise as this is definitely above my skill and comfort level, but I really do love the song and am so glad to be learning it. I have noticed that almost all memorize their song and wonder if you can offer any hints on how to do this, even though I played this song everyday, I still struggle to play by memory alone. I have thoroughly enjoyed watching all the entries again this month, you are all very talented!!

Thank you Andrew, looking forward to getting started on June’s challenge and hearing all the new entries!

Please find my entry of Lullaby Medley, I still need more practice but as we are travelling I wanted to get this in before months end. I was distracted by a little fly that kept landing on my hand, but played thru 😂, I have also included the beginning part of Brahm’s Lullaby, which is very much a work in progress for me.

I have enjoyed all the entries so far, you are all an inspiration to me!!

Hello again, I’m reposting my attempt of the Travis Picking Etude as in my previous post I had the rhythm wrong, I hope it sounds more like what Andrew intended this time 😀 Really enjoying everyone’s videos!!

Thank you Andrew for your kind response, very much appreciated. I will work on getting the rhythm right, it sounds so much nicer the way you wrote it!

Hello All!! I have really enjoyed watching all the entries here, such talent out there!!! I am new to fingerpicking and new to Rockclass 101 but am learning lots, although feel a bit out of my depth!! I have also found videoing myself to be a challenge and that I’m very nervous, hopefully that will get better too!! Here I attempt the Travis Picking Etude, it is definitely not as fast as it should be and I’m thinking maybe my beat is off? Will keep practising!!
