Have fun, I wish I could join you!!! We have elections coming up march 17, so maybe we'll get some of that Biden anti-virus effect as well...Going to watch my step daughter perform tonight with a band. In a brew pub. With no mask. In California, no less. Covid cases are magically plummeting since Jan 20th. The virus saw Joe Biden and ran the other way. It’s a miracle, I tell ya!
Unfortunately my bandmates don't have any recording gear. I've got plenty of old gigs and backing tracks to play along with but that doesn't cure my lust for loudness...I'm not in a band or gig out at all, but I have been taking some time during "all this" to stretch out on my playing, learn some different styles / techniques, some new songs.
I didn't get a ton of time to myself to play before this, with work, the kid, other household stuff etc. |But I've been furloughed from my full-time job since erly april. I've been working part time at a senior living residence that my wife works at, but I do have much more time now in between to make noise.
I've always had pretty good internal timing, but |I'll still put the metronome on my phone once in a while.
To OP - do you have ways to file-share with your band mates? IT's not the same but you can have, say, the drummer or other guitarist (if there is one) record up a track and you can play along with it. Or recordings of gigs prior to?
The sun is shining and I just got some fresh strings, so my '57 ES225T is getting some love today!
