My little things: Practice many things, and revisit stuff periodically. Many things that you cannot play properly today you will find in a few years you can play properly. Practice stuff beyond your ability as well, not just at your level. Practice stuff that you can also listen to somebody else play. Work on little bits trying very carefully to play it properly. Move on when you get bored with something, and revisit it later. I can always play something I learned yesterday better than what I learned today ... It needs to absorb into the subconscious to work. Some times that yesterday is 5 years ago ... Always move your foot. A metronome is good, but teaching your foot to be your metronome is very important. Better to miss a few notes, and stay in time, than play all the notes and getting out of time ... If practicing begins to suck, your playing will begin to suck. That's my experience. So work on different stuff to keep practicing from sucking. Always try to play properly, it's not just memorizing the notes. Does is sound like Pepe really played it? At least a little bit? Regards, Jeff
