Ohh jeeze, you people are the first ones I've shown my singing to.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rsccq_8wCtw

Its only a demo cause if I had of uploaded the whole version it wouldv'e taken like 50 hours, and the lyrics are just a bunch of mumbo jumbo that dont make sense. T'was one of the first songs I wrote.

Good Stuff Riley, I like it. It is cool that you are writing your own songs already. I have been trying but not making a lot of progress. Keep up the good work man.

Way to go Riley!

I'm very impressed! That takes a lot of guts to put yourself out here like that! I think you did an awesome job - I'm looking forward to more!

just some friendly advice, try strumming more with your wrist and not your entire arm, it looks and sounds like you're getting ready to break the strings with every strum, relax a little. keep rocking :)

It sounds really good man! :) I think your strumming is fine, it's all right to pick a little harder than most. And if you ever develop a problem with breaking strings, you can always experiment with thicker string gauges until you find one that you like and cuts down on the string breakage.

I dig it Riley, i really am impressed, and those slides up the neck were great! I know of another guitarist who always played harder than most, his name is Stevie ray vaughan, and he did alright, i'm sure you will too! :wink:

Nothing wrong with attacking the strings. Thats where tone comes from. Just keep at it. Heavy pick, Heavy strings, and a heavy hand. Thats how I roll.
