RIFF REEL DECEMBER 2024

Here's some riffing from the past couple of months that I've shot for when I'm just jamming or have new ideas. As far as an update on what's been going on with my right arm, my pinky finger is still numb and half of my ring finger. Forearm still has a little numbness and is still almost an inch smaller than my left one, and that broomstick in my back feeling hasn't been showing its ugly face in a while so that's good. I do have something a little more recent going on in the right bicep though. Back in August, I was at Top Golf and went to drive a golf ball...I felt something "jump" in my bicep tendon and it was pretty painful, so much so that I dropped the club and it freaked me out. Didn't have any bruising or anything abnormal as the weeks progressed. I iced it for the next couple weeks and didn't train biceps at all. Eventually I was able to pick back up slowly, but noticed that something looked different. In one specific area, the insertion point is higher than the other side. I still can't contract it as hard as the other side, so it may still be healing. Long story short, the pinched nerve issue that I suffered from last summer is still lingering some, and it makes playing the music I want to play difficult. When I can't play how I want to, then I don't even want to play at all. I just lose the enthusiasm. Notice how little I upload anymore these days? That's why. I know a lot of you understand who have been subscribers for a very long time, and I can't thank you guys enough for being here. I know there's some people out there that can't play their instruments at all anymore due to injury, so I would say I'm still very lucky in that sense that I can still somewhat play. I will end the rant here, but I just wanted to give a heads up as to why I have all but disappeared completely from KZbin. I ain't all there yet, but hopefully not too much longer until I can be back at or close to full playing capacity again. When things are not well with being able to deliver on content, then I don't upload. Again, thank you all for watching and being the loyal followers that you've always been. You guys rule!!!
