Easter gig- not far away!

Hi guys,

Not long till our easter gig so please make sure you practice as much as you can! Loving the sounds we are making at the moment so it'd be good if what we achieve in our lessons is reflected in our performance.

Theory:
I have added a new page to the blog called theory. On this page you will find helpful documents on things such as rhythm notation chart reading and chord construction; have a look and let me know what you'd like me to add to the page

Mario:
Showing my age here (mental or physical, you decide.) Clearly the best guitar cover of the original NES super mario brothers theme; enjoy it in all its 8-bit glory:
