News from the 2022 Retreat
Eracer_Team-DougH replied to DianeB's topic in Guitar Gathering Conferences & Retreats
I'd have to practice a lot of Fingerstyle and possibly Travis picking before attempting this amazing time. Glad you have a good time -
@dbvirago @matonanjin ahh I see what you're saying. The Legacy Learning site says out of stock. Drums have been like that for a couple of years, Bass Guitar was taken off in like its 2nd yr. I see even on Steve's own store he is only able to sell his blues course, Only the books for all the courses he wrote are for sale, no videos,. Can only guess that Legacy owns the video rights, and sadly Legacy is slowly demising. Looks like Guitar Center , or Ebay will be your only choices Doubt Legacy will order more copies. Only thing we can hope for is Legacy's video contract ends soon and Steve can be free to produce his own copies

@dbvirago well you're at the right website now . Yes all the DVD's that @Steve Krenz did with the old Legacy Learning System many years ago talk about the old Learn and Master support web forum. Steve supports all his students here on his own Guitar Gathering forum There is a section for L&M course questions found here at this link https://www.guitargathering.com/community/index.php?/forum/6-learn-master-course-questions/ The question of DVD vs streaming. That question has come up often over the years, Legacy did put up the basic guitar course on stream, but that site folded yrs ago. Most of us just "rip" Steve's lessons into mp4 video and put on our tablets the courses as needed. Don't think there is any plans to try streaming. Steve is doing an amazing finger style retreat next week. https://gx169.infusionsoft.app/app/storeFront/showProductDetail?productId=336 And usually does live lessons most weeks except when out of town, see live lessons at top of page. Long short answer, nope DVDs won't stream soon if ever

@DianeB actually not the "hook" in this case. Kimmel didn't advertise Only ones that knew Joe was on , was those following him on social media. -

Session 1 - Starting Off Right
Eracer_Team-DougH replied to NeilES335's topic in Gibson's Learn & Master Guitar
@Matt_B nothing to get wrong, it's all good don't worry Steve teaches music reading right from the start, If you read the music notes then look at the tab you'll spot it. Not a big deal TAB was put in the early lessons as its just another way guitar notes can be taught and some people like working with TAB. Its drops away quickly. But Steve prefers us the read music., best to work with the music reading After a while you'll work with both. TAB does come back in Finger Style session 10 but by then you'll be a pretty good player -
Session 1 - Starting Off Right
Eracer_Team-DougH replied to NeilES335's topic in Gibson's Learn & Master Guitar
@Matt_B you can do it. Don't worry about the Master part in the title of the course, Session 1 and 1b is just to get your hands moving , don't spend more than 2 weeks on session 1 and 1b Session 2 is where your journey begins. It's all part of Steve's master plan, of play, learn the notes, learn the theory., get better than just watching YouTube riffs There's still lots of great knowledgeable players here, that are able to help with questions. Just a side note, there are a couple of mistakes in the TAB in the lower sessions, try to read the music as presented, it will pay off In my signature line there's a Words of Guitar Wisdom.. full of QA over time, it's a good browse -
We saw Joe Bonamassa again Friday night.
Eracer_Team-DougH replied to matonanjin's topic in Guitar Open Talk
Nice When I first started seeing Joe I was able to get tickets at $72 for row 2 floor center. I see Buffalo on the spring tour, I see tickets are now $200usd each for floor seating gone up a fair bit over the yrs and many including the theatres wanting to get covid money back. I'll have a hard time persuading the wife to go see him again As posted on another forum The Musicians: Mahalia, Dani, and Jade were on hand,. Josh was fine, and Reese showed yet again why he is in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Steve was splendid on bass, and . Lemar not only killed it on the drum kit, he also ran the multimedia portion of the show -

2022 Fall Fingerstyle Retreat
Eracer_Team-DougH replied to jasn's topic in Guitar Gathering Conferences & Retreats
I flew from Toronto Canada to Nashville Then my return flight was Memphis to Chicago to Toronto My only issue, I couldn't get an empty over head bin. Far too many people bring too many carry on's flight crew ignores them , they stuff the bins They took my guitar handed it to the ground crew , landed they handed it back to me. No problem De-tune the guitar a full step. I used one of these on my regular guitar case frees up your hands as it turns a hard shell into a strapped "gig case" https://www.backaxe.com/ -
Paul David is pretty good we've all seen his humorous YouTube videos His Next Level Guitar course at $199, pretty pricey. I don't know his guitar course so can't say how good it is for the money. I know many of us don't spend enough time working scales, and saying the note names when playing the scales. Next part of learning is what to do with those scales. Steve Krenz the instructor here likes teaching theory and scale knowledge as the key to being a "real" musician. Take a look at the Store link at the top of the page, he's got some inexpensive lessons in the Fretboard series. Look for Scales mastery, might be a first look

@Enoch11223344 The streaming thing has been brought up many times, even when Steve and Legacy were together. pretty much spot on what @DianeB said. Legacy did put up the original first disks on a guitar lesson site, but that learning site has now gone away too. It was based on popularity of instructors. I do believe Steve wrote a killer package, and would probably do well on Truefire. But there's probably some sort of rights issues for that (guessing only don't know) I don't have issue's with physical media, but certainly wish this forum had activity of the "glory days" of LMG forum. Which would only come from a new GG guitar series. (And I'm still not good enough for Steve's master Blue )

Session 11 - Pentatonic Scales

Session 11 - Pentatonic Scales
Eracer_Team-DougH replied to NeilES335's topic in Gibson's Learn & Master Guitar
@kenneth for me yes even after all this time, still sounds like a walk up/down pentatontic scale. Steve has done some Live Lessons on this, check some of those videos in rewind at top look for Live Lessons. You'll have to Sift backwards those the titles. Big catch keep it simple just a couple of notes, make sure you hit the root note of the scale a couple of times There are better players than me here, maybe they'll chime in -
28 Greatest Guitarists of All Time?
Eracer_Team-DougH replied to matonanjin's topic in Guitar Open Talk
Overall with this list for what group it’s aimed at, looks ok to me. not surprisingly how much the 60’s dominate things as the musical revolution that started in the 50s, transformed basically everything we hear today is from the 60s . remember eventually the music in old folks homes will be Sex Pistols punk then transformed in to rap -
phone added a R to my Caterer and dropped the other er. They would have a Caterer available "a person or company providing food and drink at a social event or other gathering." A Food Rider. all touring acts that have booked events such that Santana would be playing at would have a Food rider. "the venue will provide back stage: 2 cases of water, 1 case of domestic beer, 2 cases of imported beer such as XYZ beer of musicians choice, two 40oz of XYZ alcohol, 6 bottles of red merlot, 6 chilled bottles of white Chardonnay , They will provide Salads for 20 people , plus assorted sandwiches for 20 people " etc.. all touring acts have venue riders. Carlos statement said he did not eat or drink anything hence he dehydrated and passed out. I wish him well and recovery but at the same time I call it irresponsible

G7 chord not right?
Eracer_Team-DougH replied to ChristopherArt's topic in Gibson's Learn & Master Guitar
hmm had to look this up @ChristopherArt @DianeB remember that Giuliani Studies is a finger style , so you don't play chords in the same way as you would strum them (sometimes). As per the Pg60 (see attached picture) the Chord Name like C and G7 is above the staff.. notice there is a Staff line with notes, and below that is a TAB line with how to finger them but what I see it's a walking bass line in the TAB finger the C chord as normal.. ring finger is on the 5th string 3rd fret, the middle finger is on the 4th string 2nd fret and the index is on the 2nd string 1st fret (so C, E, C) the G and the High E are open in Lesson 1 you are just playing 3 notes of a 5 string chord, hence its 3-1-0, 2-1-0, 0-1-0, 3-1-0 for each of the beats. in Lesson 2 you are using 1 note for each finger to pick.. so in Lesson 2 each beat will feel like a triplet -
@Popeye I hear you brother. That's why Steve's Guitar Gathering is the most affordable Guitar camp. And I'm still trying to get back some day for his
