          That’s very nicely and dirty played with great confidence. I like your fast slides! Very well done on the fast licks.

            Great Lights. Nice mix of the two lessons although I’m not familiar with 013. Definitely sounded like a down and dirty blues as this must be ‘Dirty Blues Week’ after Brian’s post of EP387. Can I ask if you use the lessons as a base and improvise freely while performing or do you create a mini composition after ‘noodling’ for hours before coming up with a series of licks and ideas, notating it and following a plan and structure. As always, enjoy your choice of music and style of playing. All the best!

              Lights, that was great!

              Like Garry, I’m interested how you come up with the songs?

                Hey Meelis,
                You made that look easy. That 366 sounded especially cool. Was that 3rd part your own? If so, great job. I like Garry’s idea of “Dirty Blues Week” but, seriously, that should be every week;-)

                  Another fantastic mashup! You went strong for 3 minutes plus!

                  Live on planet Earth ? You got the blues.

                      Nicely played Lights. Those two go together well.

                        Loved your acoustic sound Meelis, that EP366 is real fun to play, beautiful and thanks for sharing.

                          Incredible! I think this is one of my favorites by you, Meelis! You play one piece after another with such confidence, it’s fun to watch.
                          By the way, I had the same exact idea of mixing in “Smokestack Lightning” riffs into the EP366 lesson! They work with it very well, which you have just demonstrated 😊

                              Very well played Lights! EP366 is one of my favourite acoustic lesson too. And your long improvisation at the end was very cool. Improvising my own licks is something I want to try very soon too.

                                      You never let me down, buddy. I love it.

                                      Play guitar just like you live; don't get bogged down in theory, it's just a tool without feeling.

                                        Love your mashups Lights, you make it look so easy to slide from one lesson into another. This one was top drawer, awesome performance and a good measure of grit and dirt too.

                                            Hey Lights, I think the coronavirus pandemic has been good for you: Your playing seems to have reached a new level of skill – much cleaner, less random string noise, good dynamics. You have inspired me. I’ll also be playing mainly acoustic now for the next few months, because it’s summer here in New Zealand, and it’s really pleasant to sit outside and play acoustic blues. I never heard EP013 before, so I’ll add that to my list. That probably came out the week before I joined ActiveMelody.

                                              Another top notch performance Meelis, man I really loved this one. Played with great coordination and feeling with just the right touch. Keep ’em coming.
