Chord Substitution, Stronger Melodies, Switching Chords
Here were the questions, linked to the appropriate timestamp:
Sirot was wondering about two things: chord substitution and secondary dominants.
Mark was looking for tips on how to pick up the rhythm of a song AND how to create stronger melodies.
Ray was looking for practice advise about switching chords, especially the tricky ones. Ray, you had another question I missed about how much you should be looking at the neck when you play guitar. My answer: A LOT. ENOUGH TO HAVE A CLEAR CLEAR MENTAL PICTURE OF WHAT YOUR HANDS ARE DOING! Then, you can practice gradually looking away as long as you know that your hands are doing what you want them to do.
Jeff wanted to know how I craft my guitar tones
Graeme liked my recommendation of listening to Leo Kottke and asked for more music to listen to.
BazLightyear wanted to know what to move on to the next lesson in MTFG
