Good Luck this morning Dan!! Better her than you right? I liked this funky beat. I’ll play it a bunch of times today. My question is, how are we suppose to remember all these different patterns? Everyday you send new ones, plus I’m working on your 12 Month theory course where were playing alot of rhythms, there’s just so many of them. Do we just keep a book of the tabs for later use or would you memorize them?

Hi Dan,
First of all, congratulations on the new addition to your family…all the best.
Your video was timely and very appreciated.
As I’ve told you in the past, I’m in Haiti and have not been able to secure a credit card down here. I should be leaving in August though so expect to hear from me as soon as I get one.
Peace.

Hi Dan! Good luck today for all three of you today. If this isn’t your first then you already know it, but if it is then you’re about to be the most tired and happy that you’ve ever been, and it just gets better every day! Great videos. Thanks for keeping them coming. Your guitar knowledge just permeates throughout the videos and encourages me to study more. Somehow you’ve managed to make music theory fascinating and only a really good teacher can do that. Many thanks,
Jeff

excellent. your hard work on techniques and rythm are invaluable. you are the only online instructor i will ever buy from.
July 18th, 2008 at 9:19 pm
Hi Dan
Just wanted to let you know that we’re feeling the pinch of an economic recession down here in little old New Zealand. I’ve been of work recovering from an injury and well it looks like I may not have any work to go back to. Why am I telling you this? Basically I would love to buy your course, but will have to sit tight for a bit - sorry!
On to more important things, by the time you read this you will hopefully have a happy and healthy blessing from the Lord in your midst. I trust this will be the case with the amount of pray being raised before the throne of grace on your behalf.
My pray is slightly different, but according to 2Peter 3:9 is one that is in line with the Almighty’s will.
Lord God Almighty, my petition before your throne of grace, is that Dan, his wife and child/ren will come to know (if they haven’t already) you and will trust in the shed blood of our Lord Jesus Christ for the remission of sins. I pray earnestly that they will repent and trust in the redeeming work of Calvery’s cross to the glory of God. Amen
May the Lord protect you and your family Dan and keep the wolves at bay.

GL for the baby..I liked the 2nd video..10x
July 19th, 2008 at 12:08 pm
Congrats Dan & to the Mrs. (especially the Mrs.) Trust all is well & an extra special welcome to the little one. May I 2nd all the prayers received especially Tim’s, July 18 @ 11:29am & Troy’s @ 12:43pm & Kev’s @ 9:19pm. As a father of 4 who are now all grown up may I be so bold as to give you a little advice. Time will pass by much to quickly & much faster than you think. So enjoy each & every day the good Lord gives & spend as much time as possible with your lovely wife & child/children & show lots of unconditional love. It’s one thing in life you will NEVER regret. So, again all the best & may the good Lord bless you all. Ken & family (in Toronto)
