    I’ve been practicing my song and I can not wait to finish it! I’ve never been so excited learning a new song! Thanks so much Rowan for this challenge!
    Good job! I can't wait to see your submission! I'm so happy to hear this excited you and got you motivated. My pleasure! It's gotten me more active as well, for sure. I've been slacking off.... You're welcome! Thank you guys for getting me amped to be back!

    I think I cant post on weekend, so I post this now. I'm stuck on this speed.🥴
    But I hope I'll be better next week.

    I learned it a lot faster than anticipated. I am unsatisfied with the challenge I put fourth for myself and shall push myself harder next time 😅
    No worries! You're killing it! I absolutely love your tone on that. And I'm looking forward to seeing you push yourself more then!

    Ok I had to share with you guys, but I had the thought of "did I really just issue that challenge and can I REALLY do it?" if that makes any of you feel better. I've been working and haven't practiced as much as I like.

    ...I know I can and will do it. And it's really getting me fired up to see all of you participating already. I'm going to post a full playthrough whether I mess up or not. But, it will be the absolute best I can do at the time for sure too.

    P.S. You guys ROCK and are so AWESOME! And are blowing this out the HOOHA!

    Welp, here she is.


    I hope you guys like this more than I do. I did the best I could. And it's very raw, but this is the most and furthest I've ever played this song. I really shotgunned it this week. I got pretty upset when I couldn't play ALL of it, but I still taught myself so much over the week and reminded myself to keep going before I got myself back on track and finished. And I'm so proud and impressed and just overjoyed at all of you for joining. Thank you for participating. And to those of you I'm still waiting on, I can't wait to see you submit. Thank you for relighting my fire and inspiring me.

    Also, please stay tuned because I'm going to make a very special announcement for you guys in here tomorrow.

    I haven’t seen Your video yet but to make you feel better. I didn’t even finish my song. I gave myself something a bit out of my comfort zone but still doable but since it was a bit of a challenge and the song has many changing parts I still have the ending parts to learn

    Hey Rowan, you're doing great job. I like it and I'm pumped to finish my challenge song after seeing you here. 💪 The notes are ringing clear. I'm sure you will finish the playalong on this week. It's monday here, and school time again while I'm still sleepy.😴

    So here’s my video! Thanks so much for the challenge Rowan I’m super proud of how this song is coming along even though it’s not perfect or finished fully yet haha

    this challenge really made me learn that I gotta stop focusing on how I look on camera or acknowledging my mistakes. Doing these things really mess up my playing and who cares if I look dumb lol

    This is my progress for this week👆👆👆. Last week was 65% speed but today is 85% speed, although still sloppy and still messy. I took this today, but yesterday I tried to make the video👇👇👇.


    But I'm not happy with the result, so I made another video today with different guitar. I hope next week will be better.
