@brettboy so sorry to hear about your injury. Don’t feel deflated, we look forward to your Sep submissions and a full recovery!

Thank you so much @grannieannie. Your message is so sweet. Waiting to hear yours.

@gi_gi_ haha nice to hear you chose the same one and thank you so much! Look forward to hearing yours as well. Unfortunately in over practicing for a previous submission that was a bit of a challenge in terms of barring, I hurt my left thumb that pushes in on the neck (holding the pushed form for way too long). Part of the thumb lost feeling in it but then it slowly came back! Lesson to self: don’t practice for very long stretches and if you really have to, take breaks!! When it starts hurting, STOP haha

Thanks a million @Andrew! I really appreciate the feedback! And yes you are right to point those 2 places out. They were deliberate fingering swaps as I am still struggling with the injury in my thumb and I don’t think it was wise to pick such a hard one with all these barre chords right after the incident 😂 Holding the barre chords longer or having them back to back was getting too painful haha. I aggravated the situation further in practice 😭

I will wait to get back to full form before attempting those better finger choices for more sustain. Definitely sounds better with sustain throughout.

I picked La Vie En Rose for this month, but adapted it for low G and preferred it with a swung feel. Great arrangement, thanks RC101! 🙂

Hey RC101 friends,

I chose the beautifully sweet ‘The River Song’ as I am short on time this month and it’s a fun challenge. Thanks Stephen for such a gorgeous flowy tune. The name fits it perfectly 🙂

Cheers

I wanted to try the Tennessee Waltz but don’t have a high G on me. Was still fun learning the Tremolo picking etude 🙂
