​The Story Of An Unlikely Dream

To Become A Musician

Crazy Days

Crikey, some days are just nuts. This one started with my youngest losing his glasses, two of my kids forgetting to take their lunches and a tonne of rain when every umbrella in the house has suddenly vanished.

But that aside, it's been a day of immense stress over those pesky drums, one where a song idea popped out of my head on guitar and I made some cool progress on the Elton John song.

Seriously those drums have driven me nuts but I think I'm gradually making progress. The good news is that I've learned to play several new drum rhythms so it's been good for practice even if it hasn't been good for my nerves!!

The Elton John song is coming on, I'm still a long long way from being done but I'm proud. Yesterday was lesson day which was great, we're going to learn the Snowy White song - Good Question and I'm looking forward to the challenge. I love lessons with Zak he always makes me feel like I'm progressing even if it's not at the pace I want to. I think having a song like this will do us s lot of good and it will certainly push me on with the electric guitar.

I have an idea for next weeks quick song but I'll have to see how it goes! I think it could be fun as it's a whole new style I have tried yet. Or it could be another breakdown 😆.

So as Tigger would say TTFN and I'll hopefully have not quite a manic day tomorrow!

    What's This About?

    One fateful day I decided to get guitar lessons.  5 years later I'm learning four instruments and trying to become a musician and songwriter.  I've set a five year goal (Aug 2021) to create a very special song for my 25th wedding anniversary and this is a record of my crazy journey, weird thoughts, strange doodles and unapologetic music obsession!  Enjoy!
