Introduction
Hi everyone. My name is Sal and I'm looking forward to learning how to play worship music and join a worship team in the near future. I first picked up a guitar many moons ago. I began learning on a nylon acoustic and transitioned too electric. Learned some rock, alternative and then began growing an interest in learning classical guitar. After a few years of playing in my room, an old friend invited me to play in a band. I played for 3 years and that was the last time I played in a group setting. (25 years ago). It was a great experience. The only bad thing that came from it is that I lost my touch and classical style and picked up a different style of playing (modern rock) and somehow this style engraved in my brain, and I've always had a challenge shaking if off. Basically, stuck in one strumming pattern and style and never learned how to play lead guitar or different styles. The blessings that came out of it. One of my daughters learned to play and sing. After playing solo for a few years and a band for a very short period of time she found a new passion for worship music. She joined a local worship team at a local church solely as a singer and she is amazing at it. The second blessing is that my Son (Teenager) learned how to play drums and has now been playing for 5 years and joined a band 2.5 years ago and is pretty amazing at it. Now back to me, somehow incorporated doubt in my ability to play in a group setting, a bit reserved/shy in getting on stage again, and often get lost in trying to do to many things. So here I am, surrendering and going back to the basics. I'd love to learn worship music, learn to sing and praise. Thank you for the opportunity of having me in the community and the opportunity to learn.
