Topic: Electric guitars and Guitar Hero!
After planning to buy my friend's extremely belated birthday present (I would buy anything she wanted within reason). My friend and I went to another friend's apartment within the city, as the weather wasn't at its peak (it was raining like crazy). Upon our arrival, I saw my imminent love. . . a guitar! Well it was actually an electric guitar, but it was better than nothing right? So there I was trying to read the tabs and chords for Your Call by Secondhand Serenade. Now I had the introduction practically done (though I still had to look at my fingers, which I am told is an EXTREMELY bad habit). Though I also tried to learn the beginning of Wonderwall by Oasis, which to me, was also a green light as I also learnt the meaning of strumming upwards and downwards (it was shown by a u/v and a n respectively).
22/4
Though after a while, my guitar playing was gradually drowned out by the continuous music that was blaring from my friend's Guitar Hero, causing me to stop my guitar playing and proceed to join in their hurrah as the dreaded. . . vocals. Now I must inform you, I hate singing and can not be bothered to sing high notes so most of the times I was singing through my throat, which I am also told is a bad thing too. From playing this game, I also learnt that my coordination is greatly lacking as I was unable to play the drums. . . well I just couldn't do the foot movement at the same time as the hand movements. The guitar part of Guitar Hero was quite easy though, quite contrasting to the real guitar which hurt my fingers as a result of the metal strings.
Anyways, I just wanted to describe my experiences of Guitar Hero and the electric guitar, which I greatly enjoyed. As I plan to endeavor on my peril filled journey to purchase a guitar and to proceed to learn at least one song by heart.
