My 10 year plan has 5 years left. UPDATE

[FAUlty Gator]

I made my 10 year plan at 45 to be able to play enough songs on the piano to be able to play tiki bars on the weekend. I’m sitting at about 25 or so.

Doesn’t double like much but I really just started cranking them out as I’ve figured some things out that have allowed me to understand more about the music. Still can’t read music. But I’m learning my way through chords and their inversions and it’s starting to make a lot of sense. My buddy is the music teacher who’s been helping me figure things out and said “you’ll be ready in 6 months”. That would be awesome.
Csb.

Some of the songs I’m nailing…

• Simple man
• The night they drove Dixie down
• Helpless
• Three little birds
• Creep
• After the gold rush
• Desperado
• Country roads
• Hey Jude
• Let it be
• Golden slumbers
• Can’t you see
• Dream on
• Home sweet home
• Our House
• Still the same
• Crocodile rock
• While my guitar gently weeps
• Can’t help falling in love
• Unchained melody

I am happy to report my progress has been pretty phenomenal and I am site reading chord sheets with ease. Still lots of work to do but my guitar tabs playlist has at least 70 songs that I can confidently play. Still a lot of work to do but getting better every day.

I was hoping this would be about you building a bankroll through sports betting that would allow you to retire.

No Piano Man?

I gamble too much to retire.

Haven’t jumped on it yet. Those aren’t all of them either.

The list has expanded greatly since this thread was posted. Over 100 songs. The light bulb has switched on and I can now pretty much sight read chorded lyric charts. It’s exciting while at the same time I feel like I wasted 40 years of not knowing how to do this while only playing by ear.

Let me know when you get to Bridge Over Troubled Water. I've tried to do that on the piano for years, and it's like playing Chopin.

 

[Fan In Black]

How many can you play without resting?

Friendly reminder that it’s 93 days until the Masters. The sergeant at arms @JWolf74 is ready to void your non-complying entries so get it straight this year people.

I am so fücking excited, man. I’m doing that thing again though, where I think to myself “Bet on this guy to win a major next season!” and now that the season is actually here, I’m waffling. The guy is Tom Kim. I was all set to bet on him for the 2024 Masters, and then he acted like such a little bitch at the President’s Cup and now I don’t think I want to anymore!

At any rate…golf is awesome, gambling is good, people are crazy.

Memba' when James tried to say he meant Matsuyama instead of Morikawa?

I’m doing pretty well with it now.

I’ve mastered enough now that I am going to begin volunteering to play the piano every now and then at a local old folks home. Saw on FB that they wanted someone to come in and it a good place for me to break in. I’m crushing Patsy Cline might as well put it to use.

Congrats! I've always wanted to learn how to play guitar, but I'm a lefty. And the middle and index fingers on my right hand were broken playing football and never healed properly. So, when I bend them they're not straight. It makes fretting properly difficult.
