How to Play The Air That I Breathe on guitar Pt. I

[austin6ish]

could you redo this video and explain a lot more? you are a very good guitarist, but you aren't explaining much and you aren't concise. also, we cant see the neck very well. if you could just redo this, it would be an amazing walkthrough.

[Twixgtx]

@austin6ish i'll see what i can do. haven't had much time to make videos, mostly because i don't have a camera anymore, and recording with my phone TAKES FOREVER. I can see when my friend is available so i can re-record it. And chances are, this won't happen for a few weeks, if not, then months. i can't make any promises either, i know i promised a solo walkthrough, but man... youtube is a lot of work itself. There's no way i'd make a video like this anymore(crappy) so it takes a lot longer.

You are a bad teacher man, you can play so well but you can't teach for shit

[D3aDlyAnGel013]

@Twixtgx dude if you are going to teach people how to play a song teach them right and dont say its confusing. you should be able to show them which string and which fret on each part.

[Twixgtx]

@D3aDlyAnGel013 thank you for your EXPERT advice! how could i ever live without you! its people like you that make my life so great! if no stupid little kids who don't know shit could tell me how to do what i've been doing, i would not be able to live, i mean, you know what i mean? and also, don't lie about your age dumbass. you look fucking 12. haha, your so immature and ignorant your making a video of an ipad 2 unboxing! great piece of hardware, SHIT software. Horrible UI. now i block you!

Hey I found a problem with your video, in the beginning of the song, you said you also repeat the "14-16" part, but you actually only play that the second time around.

[Twixgtx]

@MasterofWarhawk yeah sorry bout that. i'll c where i gotta add the annotation.

[rorytuckerz]

i found this very useful ty

[Twixgtx]

@rorytuckerz thx for the comment. i need to start making more videos, i already have people at school asking for lessons. i'm thinkin about charging them $20 if i have to go to their place, but if not then $15 should be good, but my friends don't want to pay. so i can't really teach them, thats why i'd rather make video lessons. but i don't really know where to start

[rorytuckerz]

@Twixgtx i would so say to my friends if they wanted guitar lessons '' pay or no lessons'' but dude vry helpfull, i looked at the tabs, i didnt understand the rythm, then u came along and helped me out a load ty

[Twixgtx]

@rorytuckerz yeah, thx. in all honesty, i really didn't like how i taught this on here, but it works. i messed up quite a bit. and i keep telling myself, make more videos, but i never do. i think i'll stick to song tutorials on youtube and lessons for face to face, but i want to have multiple students and a facility and definitely advertisement. but i don't know how to pull it off. i wanna charge $15 a lesson(no matter how long) per person. and i'd give the first lesson free. that sounds good

[SupaOfSupa]

@Twixgtx heres a tip just put any notes about the riffs in the description if you wanna make it easier to understand your lessons just use windows movie maker make a blakc screen that says riff 1 play it full speed than do it again but riff 1 slow and play it slow motion and have tabs on screen via annotation or windows movie maker than it takes a 8 minuet video but no confusion completely simple and to the point

[Twixgtx]

@SupaOfSupa that sounds like a good idea, but i don't have a camera anymore. and unfortunately, i'm gonna have to cut down my hours of practice. i may not even practice every day anymore, i need to start focusing on school, next year is my senior year, and right now my gpa is a 90, so i need to get it closer to 100. i rank 82 out of like ~600 students. I want free admission to any Texas college, so i need to place in the top 8% or somethin like that. it kind of sucks. i need some 100s now.

[SupaOfSupa]

@Twixgtx well i have a few points here 1 a super amazing camera called flip is only like 100 dollars and 2 are you planing on going to colledge for music or do you nopt want a carrear in music someone whos as god as you should consider a band im not saying ditch colledge and a backup carrear im saying if you have a passions for music you should go for it cuz ill tell ya now dude even if you make a million dollars a year if you hate your job youll never be happy

[Twixgtx]

@SupaOfSupa yeah, actually, i have a lot of goals, that i don't expect i will reach all of them, but most of them are very ambitious. since i was 6 i always wanted to go to Mars(looks like we could get to mars within 50 years) and i've always had a passion for engineering. i love to solve problems, and my favorite thing is computers. i love working with wood(heheh) and i may consider architecture. If all fails, then i'm falling back on carpentry. Ill make music any way, its a stress reliever

[riot0005]

thanks man..... the only part i am having trouble with is the speed of the strumming at the start..... do you have any tips on how to strum fast and not miss a note?

[Twixgtx]

@riot0005 actually, all i can say is study my picking hand or maybe it'

ll be easier to tell you, don't pick with your wrist or your arm, but with your thumb. hold the pick between your thumb and index finger when you have a fist. i want to make a video on basics i.e. how to hold a pick right and thus allowing easier speed picking. so another thing is practice with a metronome, start slow and go faster and faster but at your own pace. but just subscribe and wait for those lessons if u need them.

[benny102996]

Thanks man, but I have to wait til I get my strings! One broke ;(

[Twixgtx]

@benny102996 that sucks, well, so far its the only video of how to play this. and i couldn't think of how to teach someone to learn this in less than the time it takes to actually play it, so its a 2 part video.
