Hot Leg - I've Met Jesus (cover)

Hi, I'm Steve.
I'm a 19 year old guitarist from the UK and have started this project to track my guitar practicing and try to reach my goal of 10,000 hours within 2.5 years and see for myself how good I can become with that focused effort.
To reach this goal, I will try and average 10 hours of FOCUSED practice each day, and with this video diary I can track my progress.

----------------------------

Hey people, this is the song I transcribed for week 1. It's a kickass song from Justin Hawkins' (from The Darkness) new band, Hot Leg, and the guitar playing is awesome, so I had to learn it. Hope I don't kill it too much :)

Here is the Guitar Pro tab I made of it:

-EDIT-
I can't believe this.
Every time I try and export the tab file as .GP4 it puts it in triplet feel. There's no apparent way around it, and therefore all the hard work I put in to making it just gets ruined like that. Un-fucking-believable.
I've reuploaded the tab in .GP5, so to anyone that wants to view in, I'm afraid you're gonna have to use Guitar Pro 5. This has really pissed me off. Sorry.

I envy you, sir. :P

I seem to practice, but not get much better...You should message me sometime with some key things to practice to actually notice improvement.

Keep it up, I know you can do it. :P

[the10kproject]

When I've finished editing/uploading the first month's worth of stuff I talk about what I think works best in the routine, keep your eyes peeled. :)

[horriblemashup]

how do you warm up, man?

you still on the same routine?

[the10kproject]

I don't really warm up except stretching my arms/shoulders/hands really, haha. The first thing I decide to do each day is my warm up really...

And the routine is largely the same now as it was in that first video, but with a few modifications I guess.

Excellent job, very close to the inversions I used on the recording. I'm impressed!
