Im a general contractor and a guitar player in my 50’s. Played a lot more than I do now when I was younger. Been to Nashville many times on business and for pleasure. One thing I like about this video is your honest raw portrayal of how much it takes to do what you are passionate about. People don’t realize how much we have to do behind the scenes to practice our craft. For me, it’s making sure I have the right materials and tools, subcontractors scheduled, fixtures, etc. on site so I can be the most productive for the day for me and my clients. I know it’s hard and a lot more more work to film and edit videos like this so, you’re actually working twice as hard as you have to to bring us this content. Good luck to you man. You’re a young man with a passion and direction and I hope you find the success you are looking for. Sorry for the old man ramble….

Another fun, low-key video of you doing it for real, in a real way. I've been playing the same supporting gig for the last 20yrs where we are showing up, running through a new set of songs, and then performing an opry style show for various singers and special guests. That feeling of "not my best, not my worst" never really goes away. You just have to learn to enjoy the moment and not over analyze each gig too much. If they keep inviting you back, you must be doing something right! Keep it up! Love the channel!

I really enjoyed this video. So open and honest . I’ve been playing bass for 44 years and I just smiled at everything you said. I actually count my mistakes on each gig. The musicians who care are the ones that are hard on themselves. It’s one way to get better. I’m 61 now and still practice daily and play in multiple bands. Ive played in club bands, big swing bands, musicals and churches.The things I’ve learned is to always prepare, be on time, and be known as a decent person/musician in personality .And always have fun. If you hire me I may not be the best bass player but I’ll prepare hard for the gig. I hope a lot of young musicians see this video because it’s so spot on.

Nashville is pretty forgiving, especially in these eating places like Rippys. People aren't listening that close. My worst problem is forgetting lyrics. I mean, when it's a song you haven't done in a while, suddenly that 2nd verse doesn't load up, so I just repeat the 1st verse and nobody notices. Then sometimes it's just gibberish for a line or two until I get to the chorus. It happens.

I loved what you said about working on playing more melodically! I think that's something, regardless of genre or style, that is super important to work on for guitarists, especially because we don't have the same visual aspect that other instruments have, like piano. I feel like on guitar it's very easy to revert back to licks you know or just let your fingers take over, and it's easy to overplay when we don't have to breathe like horn players. I mostly play jazz, and I'm studying jazz guitar in college currently, but I've also been recently been working on playing more melodically when I solo, as well as trying to learn more songs and learn more vocabulary. Keep up the great videos on your channel, I love them and they're super informative! I think it's so great to see professional players on here sharing their honest experiences, it's really helpful for younger cats like me!

Love videos like this and am totally digging your channel. You’re very humble and I think your videos are great for all levels of players. At 50 I played live for the first time, a few songs here or there (open mic things, one gig where a band had a couple of us play a song) and man the nerves I had. Them got up and it was so much fun. I think you really hit the nail on the head when you asked if the audience noticed whether you played it perfectly or not. That was a big thing for me to get in my head was that the little mistakes often go unnoticed and not to dwell on them. Your “not my best, not my worst” is how I often think as well, sometimes we’re just our own worst critic. Anyways keep this channel going and keep up with this amazing and down to earth content that you’ve been providing. 🤘🏼

That was fantastic, Tim! Yes, (II think) we are all getting a lot of enjoyment living vicariously through your Nashville musician persona. By the way, the playing , more melodically, and not just according to muscle memory is something I am personally working on at this moment. I was thrown a solo the other day, by the band leader, out of the blue, and muscle memory took over. Afterwards, I decided I really do want to spend more time thinking about the melody of the solos I play…not just what my fingers will do out of habit😮 By the way, your level of musicianship and professionalism is a goal for thousand of Musicians. I am an old guy, (playing in bars since the mid 70’s) and I’m never totally satisfied with my playing either. We really do live for those few moments, when things are really clicking and we are enjoying the musical company we are part of.

The prevailing thought in your city is "don't turn down a gig if you're available, or you risk not being called again"!

Love the content and viewpoint Tim. The gigcam was awesome. I would like to take you back to 1962 and Don Rich. He made the Buckaroos more audience friendly than Buck Owens ever did. That friendly smile of his went a long way to support their show. As I was watching your gigcam I was struck by how much you could add to the artist and your own music career by simply giving everyone that big DON RICH SMILE. Put up a mirror in your practice room and practice that smile because it doesn't seem to come naturally to most of us guitar players. Guitar face is fine, but use it for effect, not as a mantra. Watch Uncle Larry grimace through a session if you don't believe it matters. Sorry Tom B. (and Tim). Just an old timer's viewpoint after all.

This is really great. Very informative. When I was in Nashville in the late 1970s, the only gig I remember playing that wasn’t a one-nighter was when I was in the house band at George Jones’ Possum Holler in Printers Alley. I think we played four nights a week, and we did something like six weeks. I didn’t have a car, so I’d ride with one of the other guys, and I don’t remember having to pay for parking either, although dometimes we’d have to hunt for a spot! I certainly wouldn’t be able to carry my guitar on my back at all-I’m a polio survivor, and although I could walk in those days, no way could I manage my equipment in one trip. I had a Music Man amp that weighed 75 pounds…I was really set up for road gigs where we’d be in one place between one week to three, so not a lot of schlepping gear. Not a good setup for one-nighters with no parking! Even if I could still walk, there’s no way I could handle the logistics of a Broadway gig today. BTW, the couple of clips of you and the band sounded really good!

Great video Tim. Fun to go along with you on your gig. You're a fantastic musician. You asked me what I'm working on so... I started playing with 3 talented musicians back in December and we get together once a week. Send voice memos out between rehearsals with the song arrangements we want to do and learn the songs so they're like old friends. I really like playing with these people. No big egos, critiques are always helpful and constructive, and their cover selections and originals are great. I play bass and acoustic guitar. Key concepts I'm working on: listen and play with intent with my bandmates, don't drag any leads, put the notes I'm playing in the pocket we're creating, solo, duet, and harmony singing, It's a real challenge only playing together 4 or 5 hours a week, but I'm so lucky to be able to play music with my friends. Here's a shameless plug for one of my bandmates and his new album. It's by Rob Suraci and the title is: "It's About Time". Google it on bandcamp and Apple Music. Thanks again Tim. It's nothin' but a good time! Where are we going next?

I always try to make sure that I can play the vocal melody, and play off of that. I don't try to rely on improvising the melody because I like to get it under my fingers. It depends on the song, sometimes it makes sense to just rip it, sometimes it's good to stick to a simple melody, and other times, a new melody can give the song a fresh lift. It just always depends. I have been working on being more melodic and purposeful with my playing. It is easy to string along a bunch of licks that we've played a million times, most non-musicians don't know the difference.

Yeah Tim, real fun watching you drive around and try to find a place to park lol. But, welcome to the music biz, been there myself. Tommy Bolin wrote a song called "The Grind", that was about all the crap players have to go thru to make it. Great song. You better be good, and love what your doing if you want to be a musician.

love the tele. I'm about 3/4 months into guitar. Nailed down my F chord transitions over the last two weeks with a song, then realized I need to do the same for B minor while practicing mamaw's house. Also learned the G Major scale. It's a start.. lol

I like 18:28 ("I'll tell you how much I made in just a second") then several minutes of "Oh yea, I was going to tell you how much I made. I made... hey, look at that over there. HYDRAULIC CAR" lol but seriously great video as always. You're living the dream for all of us who were to chicken to actually go for it as a career and ended up in an office somewhere.

One thing that has helped me improvise on solos is humming the melody I want to play. But as a guitarist of 18 years, I 100% get falling into riffing just off of muscle memory.

Great video man love the honesty. If you want to have more melodic solos I would suggest that you check out some of Jerry Garcia's guitar playing. I know it helped me break out of the blues trap. His style is so melodic and serves the song so well. Good luck with your future in Nashville! I wish you well. More videos please! reminds me of the time I spent in Nashville.

Love your uploads reminds me of my younger self Interesting you say you are thinking of the tunes melody rather than just throwing in some overplayed licks. I went through the same. Had it on my mind but just reverted back to the licks I knew. My way out of this was to get some of the melody notes or harmonies of those notes, have them in my mind and after a pentatonic lick head for some of those notes and hit them solid, it got to be fun and helped as you develop more technique with this style.
