From Pencil Neck trick to Real Neck
Here is a little follow up from the Pencil Trick. It is aimed at beginners but I'm thinking many if us could experiment with ideas to adjust what we do. Sometimes we find unexpected results from looking at things we thought were in the rearview mirror. https://youtu.be/MNz3PEMLHY8

Scio Me Nescire
This short -ish little 6 min video is what helped me a bit with some associations with Music therapy and SEN guys at times. The scio me nescire "I know that I don't know" (rough translation) refers to what many have heard me say sometimes. It is about paying lesser and lesser attention to concepts or things that we think or that we believe that we already know, or know how to do. One of my usual examples is the alphabet. Do you really know it? Really?... Do you know the ordinal number of each letter? Can recite it from any point smoothly? Can you say it backwards from Z to A as easily as A to Z?? Can you really easily manipulate a pencil as in the time stamps shown at 1:44 and 5:21? https://youtu.be/RVBTNyc0ioQ?si=JUyNT3ygewEBOvbI

For anyone who is looking at the "link Library" appearing in the descriptions of the videos now available, please let me know if you think there is a logical best pick for the Wednesday new release. Thanks. Keep the questions coming!

Fret School Club YouYube Channel started
I'm still here... I just posted the first of weekly videos to be posted on the Fret School Club Youtube channel. Some of you can use these as mini courses if you use the timestamps and link libraries in the description section of the video to see related videos. For you more advanced guys you may want to look at : the beginning voice leading example https://youtu.be/1cozgsaU_WE (Years of Theory in 20 min) or the drop2 voicing exercise (3 Shapes all Chords All Keys ) https://youtu.be/8bAn72bPflk Let me know your thoughts about monthly live online meetings Still kicking 😅
