July 8, 2020. Day 21. Keys of D and A, memory. Need to work on the chords and scales. Worm a bit better but need to polish that as well.

July 6, 2020. Day 20. Key of E Speed. Rough scale and chords. I can tell I didn’t do the worm for a few days.

June 30, 2020. Day 19. Key of F Speed. Getting better at the worm, but still not there. These chords were much easier!

Day 1 – My first test on 5/16/2020 , not practicing on consecutive days….

Worm: 1
Strumming: 11
Picking: 21
C Scale: 7
Chord Switching: 15

June 29, 2020. Day 18. Key of E, E and G#m chords are hard. Watch transition from G#m to A, can slide the middle and index fingers. Aldrine uses his thumb on the G string!

June 25, 2020. Day 17. Key of F Speed. Better. Work on worm and F-scale and chord switches.

June 23, 2020. Day 16. Key of F Memory Session. The warm up worms go better when I don’t skip days. Learning F scale (w/Bb) and work on switching from Gm to Bb.

June 22, 2020. Day 15. D & A mash-up. I need to practice these, and also the worm. I am slow on the worm and need to focus on my pinky more.

June 19, 2020. Day 14. Review of C and G scales and chords. I didn’t do the worm or these chord switches for a few days and got very rusty (even though I played other songs).

June 11, 2020. Day 13. I can tell I did not do these warm ups and scales for a few days. Awful at inside/outside, A scale, and e chord.

June 5, 2020. Day 12. Need to work on the D scale (A too!). Trouble keeping up with worm stairs today. Getting to know my fretboard even better. Still not automatically switching all chords cleanly. Work on smoothness and not gripping the neck so tightly.

June 3, 2020. Day 11. E chord, yuck! I am alternating it with another inversion, barre the 4th fret and A string 7th fret. A scale has 3 sharps: C#: F#,; & G#. Getting to know the notes on the fret board and where they are on the staff!

June 2, 2020. Day 10. Same as Day 9, keep working on the worm and D scale and chord switches.

June 1, 2020. Day 9. Learning the D scale. Stumbled a little with the worm exercises, some days it is easier. Getting the hang of the Roman Numeral system.
