Wish You Were Here - Intro

[with the lights out]

My crappy camera only allows one minute videos, so the intro is cut short and I kind of speed my way through the solo in order to get through it. and yes, i may be the only person in the world to pluck my strings upward.

I don't claim to be really good, but you guys are very supportive so I decided to post this. :)

It's played on acoustic & it's like Dave Mustaine once said, "playing acoustic guitar is like having sex with your clothes on. I mean you know how to do it but it’s more difficult." Hah. Yeah, but the bending and sliding is harder, as you'd know.

Anyway here it is:

I always have to give a nod to those playing my all time favorite song!

Have you watched gilmour play it live? Go to youtube and look it up.. on his meltdown concert you can see close ups him picking it and stuff..

pretty cool!

not bad, alittle practice and you will have it, all you have to do is get the right parts with the right number of times, and try to use more than one finger for that bend haha, its alittle hard to get right.

good work

I think that was nice - You nail it, just a little off beat sometimes but like
you said, u had to hurry up to stay in that 1 minute limit.

Stay relax , I sense some stress.
I know bends on acoustic are very hard, I tried this song and it really
hurts fingers when bending ;)

Keep it up !!

Friendly,

Ray.

well thanks everybody. :) it means a lot to me.
and BrianG, i know that i was off on the number of times, but like I said, I had to keep it under a minute. I play it the right amount when I'm actually playing for someone or whatever. But thanks man. :)
