STOP Using Your EMOTIONS to Play Guitar!
I'm going to challenge your beliefs here - please STOP Using Your EMOTIONS to play guitar!
A very common mistake that most guitar players make is that they think they should use EMOTIONS to play the guitar.
Emotions and feelings are what you "GET OUT" of the music, not what you "PUT IN."
Do you agree? Disagree? Let me know - COMMENT BELOW :-)
===========================================
TIMESTAMPS:
0:00 Intro
0:40 If "emotions" were all you needed....
1:15 Playing "Killing Me Softly...what am I "feeling?"
2:33 Deep Concentration vs Emotion
2:48 An Audience Member Asked Me This
3:33 Playing Music Properly Causes Emotion
4:10 Emotion vs Concentration
===========================================
What YOU should put in is a soulful, musical concentration on touch, time, tone, technique and groove.
Please COMMENT below and let me know your opinion on this!
