the other day i was sitting on a bench by myself and had a herd of people stop five feet from me and talk loudly about what i was doing. messed me up bad enough that i completely muffed a simple chord and then they left in a rush when they realized what they were doing. i can't play if i can't hear myself.
You know man i gotta say if youre sitting on bench playing the guitar you can't expect people not to notice you playing.
If it's annoying you so much why put yourself in that situation in the 1st place :wink:
Minus.
And all the things you said to me
I need your arms to welcome me
But a cold stone's all I see
Let my heart go
I don't find the talking as distracting as the licking of the long neck beer bottles while dancing suggestively in front of me as I play. I manage to live with both.
In other words, all sorts of distracting things are going to happen as you play.
Drunks
Loud people
People with requests
Strings breaking
cables coming loose
picks flying
panties flying
room keys flying
people flashing you
forgetting the words
other players getting lost
Somebody forgetting to turn off the jukebox
fights breaking out
You have to be:
A. Practiced enough to be confident
B. Able to zone in on what you are doing.
C. Self assured enough to know that maybe they didn't come to hear you and that's okay too.

THIS is what inspires me to practice. Nice list. :oops: :lol:
