Yeah, you have a point. I focus a lot of what I haven't managed or can't do, as apposed to what I can do and have accomplished.

I just basically learned the fingerstyle Mario theme-tune in one go, in just a few hours, ... granted, I can't play it flawlessly, but I can play most of it quite well, so if that's what I'm like now, perhaps within a few days of practice, I'll have it sorted. I've also started learning the absolutely insane Big Love by Fleetwood Mac, the acoustic version; I'll probably never be able to play that like he can, but I'll for sure give it a shot, because, if anything, it's good to push my comfort-zone further out.

Looking back at my original post, I see I basically just needed practice, on or off the mic'. I can play Air on G String with much less trouble, now, but it's like I have to be able to play something even with the anxiety, so that means more practice than usual.

The videos on Facebook aren't that great, and I go through stages of hiding them; if it's not through insecurity about how I'm dressed/how I look, it's how I play the guitar. ¬_¬

I do always keep old videos of myself with the guitar - I can be very sentimental. I have some hilarious ones going years back, when I used to play the electric, and by the way, atrociously! Those were the days. -.- I see the improvements. In just one day of practicing, I can end up making huge improvements, which is both a good thing and a bad thing; I think mentioned that and why in an earlier post. xD I can't change it, though, ... my determination has gotten me too far, and I don't intend to just lay back and accept less than perfect, even if it's a ludicrous aim.

Oh, and as for putting something of myself into the pieces: well, I do tend to play things "my way", sometimes, be it a trill here and there, or a bend, or a slightly more interesting lick than the original, etc. A while back, I learned something titled "Frank's Blues" or something; no idea what it was, aside from nice, relatively simple blues in fingerstyle, so I learned that, but found some licks were kinda boring; I found a way to make them sound more interesting, at least to my ears. (actually, from that tab', came some fun improv' stuff) I assume that's what you mean.

My best mate and my dad sometimes tell me stuff like that - will I listen? Hell no! Haha.

By the way, thanks for taking the time to post 'n stuff.
