I just remember wanting to be Jimmy Page. I was given an acoustic guitar by my uncle as my first guitar ever and after he showed me how to tune it off I went. I remember not even knowing how to fret chords so I'd opt for simple 2 note chords or 1 string solos. I did have a good ear though and could pick up songs real easy...the rest came as I went along. My friends really helped me want to learn more though. We were all heavy rockers so it was a good idea I learned how to play so I would be "cool". I just remember having a deep desire to rock out and that drive helped me a lot. I'm trying to teach my oldest daughter this and it's so different with her. She wants to do it but she doesn't show initiative to really get into trying things she's learned or how to explore ways to do things and make noise so she gets easily frustrated. She's got the ear cause she sings really well though. We all know how easy it is for us to do things but when it comes to others sometimes its just...differrent?
