It's been a while since I uploaded a video but I'd like to change that. This video lesson was created for the Bluegrass Unlimited RU-vid channel and I thought I would upload it here as well.

You have a real talent to explain clearly how to progress. My english is very bad and I understand all you say . I progress on guitare and also in english , wonderfull !!! Cheers from france .
I totally understand the “want” of tab BUT listen, slow it down, play 3-4 notes at a time. Repeat. I have been taking zoom lessons every couple of weeks with Mickey. I was at a festival for 7 days last week. I started inserting a lot of these ideas in the jam and my friends who are familiar with my skill set kept asking me where I learned all this.

I must say, it's always so tempting for me to tickle the dirty 3rd, whenever I can. How do you resist? Great phrasing concepts here. I like the pents, cause they're easy to play closed, and usually sound good. Thanks Mickey.
