@PARREZ Thank you!

[afgan01]

alright alicia....when's the cd coming out? we're waiting :-)

[bluesbaby8]

@afgan01 Well, thank you so much for the comment. Don't when I'll have a CD out. But, I'm flattered that you would ask me. :D

[hutchfromba]

You are my inspiration ! You make this old man want to play my guitar blues better . Thank you . You play terrific Alicia !

[HelpTheUnknown]

You do make this look easy. Amazing :)

[sinaweena]

WOW Alicia you are absolutely amazing at what you do! Make sure you never give it up. You have an amazing talent, so keep up the hard work!

Interesting comments about Tabs. I have played for about 40 years. Tabs can be helpful, but the I doubt whether the greats in all genres (Hendrix, BB King etc) have ever seen a tab in their life ! As Clapton once said ' learn where every sound is on the fretboard and feel the way there'.

- like this young lady does !

[hikoboshigirl24]

My friend and i are here watching you Jam. With a guitar in my hand shaking our head saying "dam."

Keep doing what you are doing.

[peterqb24]

I've somehow never viewed this one before....what a good player you are !

There's NOT a lot of 15 year olds out there who can do this !

[jkilcull]

wow! you're all over the place...

very nice!

[patapillo3]

eres muy buena!

[fartdeath]

dang dame I'm strangely entertained by your skill(I'm normally strictly stuck to the day of old) and just thrilled that you got so good with nothing but practice and will...once you get your heart broken, or lose someone close, its gonna get lyrical though (but it's good release)and the more tribulation you experience the more it will show but don't get down.. unless it's on that guit-box baby cuz you can really jam -understand?- SMOOTH-AS-EGGS! chicken-head

[daviemcf]

Beautiful playin'Alicia....you make it look so easy!

[bluesbaby8]

Gosh! Thanks Davie!

[TheFunkify]

So, do you have any tips on how to play good? Do you practice lots? Just come easy? Both? Do you learn by ear or tab or both/ depends? You're incredible. Such a natural. Makes me cry knowing I'll never be that good and I've been playing for more than 15 years :-)

[Hoopermazing]

Tab is for idiots.

[TheFunkify]

@ Hoopermazing. Hmm. Some tabs are produced by amazing transcibers who can put things on paper I just can't hear and play, especially for blues. While I assume you're saying it all should be done by ear, are classical musicians idiots for using notation?

[Hoopermazing]

@TheFunkify - You assumed in error. Playing by ear has its place, but I was alluding to standard musical notation. Tabs are for musical illiterates (and/or people who don't know their way around the fretboard) as far as I'm concerned. Tabs tie you to a particular position, and they usually don't include rhythmic or articulation info. And that is just the tip of the iceberg. Notation conveys much more information... and enables you musicians. Ask the leader of a jazz ensemble for tabs... ROFL

[Hoopermazing]

Edit: ...enables you TO PLAY WITH musicians...

[TheFunkify]

@ Hoopermazing. Tabs can too have rhythm and articulation info. Have a look at a guitar mag. Professionally made tabs can also let you know where an artist played something, another advantage to sound authentic. Jazzers use the Real book- chord charts with a very basic melody and go from there. Nowhere near as much detail as a track tabbed in a magazine. I use both, but ear is key. Be well.

[666trippa666]

@TheFunkify not exactly true it mostly comes by making music that you love mostly from the heart so its not all on paper if it is they only want to approve it with words or with more interments so its not always on paper

[fendermac]
