Given that she ate that pick, I'm a little disturbed as to where she found it. I guess if you want to stick with finger-less, maybe something from Fleetwood Mac would be an interesting choice. I've been for some time moving towards playing purely finger based. If you aren't looking to play covers, and don't need to emulate specific sounds, I'd argue that playing with your fingers is more likely to lead to a unique sound and style, and it'll discourage you from doing all the standard pick based cliches. Though, if you really want to go all in, you can pretty much do anything. Andy, who has done pedal demos forever for one web site or another, and who currently seems to have his own (AndyDemos) is a great example of someone who plays finger-style but who can pretty much emulate all of the usual pick based techniques.

And your video, just so well done, made pick up my guitar today and I practiced for like 30 minutes. And for the first time since years it was fun. You did this. I don´t know how, but you did this. Thank you.

Keep playing! I try to tell myself that when the stresses of everyday life takes the better of me, cos when you're playing and enjoying it, that's when you feel great. Either trying playing something that you never really put your mind into gripping fully before, or just playing something easy and sing to it for the first time. Can be equally satisfying. Life doesn't last forever and just to be able and have the skill to play the guitar is a blessing one should cherish.

Even after playing this song live for almost 20 years, this video was an informative delight, and beautifully explained. I'm surprised you didn't do the "twiddly bit at the end," as Mark describes it, since it's the most iconic signature lick of the whole song-but then again, every guitarist at Level 5 (me included) already knows how to do it. The wonderful filler licks you break down at 10:04 and 10:59 are the ones people forget, and they're the ones I never really figured out until I saw you nail them so precisely here. Thanks for taking the time to share your insights and beautiful playing. Putting aside all the "levels," I don't think there's any level of skill at which people would stop learning from you. If anything, the better they are, the more your teaching has to offer.
