Hi William - I just joined your Saturday online lessons last week and watched the first one last Saturday - even though I am new (more noise than music at the moment) I found it easy to follow and very enjoyable - thanks.

Mr. Green's is still the best I ever heard.

:lol:

Seriously, William, that was pretty sweet! Lot's of great pacing and slide work to steal on that.

Hi John, welcome to the funny farm! You've come to the right place if you want to pick. The difference for me "before William" and "after William" has been distinct, not necessarily distinguished, but we're getting there.
See you around!

Really nice, William! Yeah I like Mr. Green's version, too. But that old push pull sure sounds good.


(It's good Daniel's back posting; we thought something was amiss.) :P

As Dan says 'welcome to the funny farm, John'. You're in for a real fun ride.

Welcome John to the best place on the web to learn your craft. Will could turn a monkey into a great player.

BTW Will, have you done this song in your lesson lineup? I really want to do this one !

Three good songs for steel. Lost in the Feeling has been great and fun to play. I vote for "So Sad" soon.
I would still like to see Will do "Since I Fell for You" on E9th

That is correct guys. We will begin the study of the old Everly Brothers tune "So Sad To Watch Good Love Go Bad". Join us for Steelin Techniques each week LIVE or watch the video anytime. These last few weeks have seen a spike in subscribers! Join me and the 140 or so each week learning to play the steel guitar....

We didn't have to wait too long, but considering the list of requests William gets, I'm glad this one got moved up the chain.
