How I find Time to Learn Piano

23 July 2010

With kids, work, family and other commitments it might seem impossible that an adult can find time to learn piano. Private lessons take an hour a week and you have to be available that same night every week. That didn’t seem possible to me with all the commitments so I started looking for a self study course I could use.

What I found after a few hours research was that there were some really great piano lessons dvd programs out there you could order off the Internet for a fraction of the cost of private lessons.

I ordered a course and decided to dedicate 3 hours a week when I could to learning. That was a few months ago now and I’m about a quarter of the way through the course. I love it, it’s the first real hobby I’ve had and it’s been great for me.

Why you should have a good music lesson plan

21 July 2010

Whenever you are teaching music you owe it to yourself to have a good Music Lesson Plans for music lessons. The key to teaching music is to be well planned, have all the instruments and everything you need organized, and then to keep yourself in a great state when you walk in the door of the classroom. If you are properly organized you’ll find that teaching will be a joy and fun - and if you’re not you’ll find that it will be a pain and difficult. It is all down to those two things - how well you plan and how organized you are, and the mental state that you put yourself in when you go into the classroom.

A Great Service

20 July 2010

     I just found a new file sharing service that I have to tell about.  It is called Ares, and it is so great.  I have had a lot less problems with viruses when I use it.  It also allows me to download songs at lightening fast speeds.  I have found every song I have ever wanted to download on there.  I have told my best friend, and she has told many people, because we love it so much.  If you are looking for a new place to find songs I would highly recommend it. It is a wonderful way to get songs

Learning Blues Guitar boosted my confidence

18 July 2010

I had taken a few guitar lessons but my confidence wasn’t that high with it. I was shy to play in front of other people and I didn’t really like playing in front of my wife either. It wasn’t until after I started taking some blues guitar lessons that I really started getting seriously interested in wanting to play with other people. It’s just the style of music the blues is, it motivates me to want to jam with others whether they’re better then me or not. It really pushed my comfort boundaries in terms of playing guitar and helped me build a ton of confidence. I’ve actually become better since I started playing with others because it pushed me to learn new things, keep up with them and be a better all around guitar player.

What You Should Know About Online Movie Streaming

15 July 2010

The online movie streaming business has really taken off recently. Get the movies and tv shows you want from these sites and get them to your television or computer. You can bet that there are some disadvantages with free online movie streaming sites.

First of all most of the free sites out there have noticeable flaws. The lineament will be quite poor when compared to hi def which is what you get with paid sites. How can you expect to watch your favorite TV shows when you are only watching them in these big pixels?

Free online movie streaming can be really risky. The thing about free sites is that they barely ever have great quality.

Very Pleased With My Online Guitar Lessons

12 July 2010

I wanted to take guitar lessons, so I went to town to talk with a guy who offers them.  Everything sounded great to me except for the price he was asking.  I didn’t have that kind of money, so I decided to start taking online guitar lessons.  I didn’t think that it was going to turn out that well, though, because I felt like I wasn’t going to be instructed very well.  However, I was very wrong.  I have been learning a lot in just my first few lessons, and I know that these online lessons will help me become a great guitar player.

Benefits of Learning Guitar Scales

05 July 2010

After years of practice, I have finally mastered guitar scales. I was beginning to think that it was impossible for me to learn guitar scales, but am happy that I was wrong. It took so much patience and practice to get here, but it has definitely paid off. I have already been asked to play in a local band, which I am very excited about. They are really popular in the area, so I will be getting a lot of exposure. None of this would be possible had I not been persistent in learning this skill. I am so proud of myself for accomplishing this goal.

Neil Diamond tribute act Scotland

Neil Diamond tribute act Scotland

If the marriage party is from Scotland, then they’ll know the dances because almost all of the dances are taught to Scots when they’re at college. But if there are plenty of folk at the marriage who aren’t Scottish, then the band could need to teach the steps and call the dances ( remind folk what to do in the dance ). The very good news is that the majority of the dances are so easy to learn and can consequently get picked up extremely quickly. Again, the standard Ceilidh band will play for approximately 4 hours at a marriage and take a thirty-minute break.

Listening to a Funny Song Today

25 June 2010

I was on my way to work and scanning through the radio station during grid lock traffic. I ran across a song that caught my attention and started making me laugh. After listening for a few minutes and not paying attention to how backed up the traffic was, time flew by. The person in the car next to me was wondering what I was laughing at and I told her to change the radio to the station I was listening to because they are playing funny songs. Next thing you know, she was sitting in her car laughing also. Sometimes laughter is the best medicine.

On Bodhran And Caroline Corr

14 June 2010

I was, and still is, a fan of the Irish band The Corrs, especially during my grade school years. What strikes me most about this band is that they do not just play no cuts, no take two lives but they also play some wicked instruments. My favorite is Caroline Corr when she plays her handheld drum. Curious, I researched on it and found out that it is called a bodhran. It is actually made of goatskin and the double-ended drumstick that is used to strike the drum is called a tipper. Now that is wicked!

Concerns of a Music Teacher

28 May 2010

As a music teacher I am always looking for guitar technique tips to pass on to my students. Although I have been playing for 35 years now I still learn new stuff all the time. Also I worry a lot about skipping over basic steps as they are so ingrained in my playing I don’t even think about them. So far I haven’t had any complaints from my students, but I still worry about it. After talking to other music teachers I realize that I am not alone in this concern. It appears we all worry about becoming complacent and skipping steps.
