Ramzi, sounds like you are trying find an excuse, or get a pat on the back. Truth is, if you can't tap your foot to a simple beat when playing, you don't really "feel" the rhythm. If that is acceptable to you then great. But if you want to play with other musicians, it is important to be able to groove together some how. Perhaps your playing is fine, but only one way to tell for the outside listener, and that would be a reference of some kind. If you just can't tap and play at the same time, then you need to make sure you are comfortable with a steady metronome pulse. The fact you say your guitar is too loud to "hear" the metronome, is not a good sign. When you play right on time, you should not be able to hear any clicking. If you are playing off the beat, then you should hear the click just fine. Rhythm can be pretty simple like that, no need for a super loud click reference. I have met some folks that DONT tap their foot by choice, but "don't" and "can't" are very different things. Ricardo
