Since I started seriously focusing on learning to play guitar acceptably Ive mainly worked on original ideas and jams for GN. I never really had the urge to learn copy from beginning to end. My ear isn't ready yet for one thing. But some songs stick with me and now I'm getting more comfortable with making small strides towards copy stuff. I downloaded the BT of Living On a Prayer last night.

Today I attempted to remember/learn the lead as best I could.

I think I have the first part but I don't remember it all ( probably couldn't play it anyway ) so the second half is made up, ad libbed, improvisationed or whatever you want to call it.

One of my best friends and one I respect their opinion told me to post it, as is.

If I get panned they will suffer the wrath. :evil:

Thanks for listening.

No idea how the original sounds but I would have believed you if you posted this as the original. Great job!

Thanks again, you guys.

I went ahead and put an ending on it. I played all the way to the end of the song where words normally would be.

It was fun but maybe a hair long.

Here it is if you care to give another listen.

Bish, one question; when are you going to teach the guitarist in your band how to play this song on drums so that you can pick up your guitar & play!? 8) :D Great job bud, and I really like that riff about 3/4 in, (plays on quicktime for me, so I can't give you the exact time), it's really sweet! 8) Great improv. :D

Haahaahahaah you guys are so funny.

Good suggestion, Dan. I'll look into it.

Dog, Bish as we know him is getting a little smarter at guitar. I know, surprised as I am, it's true.

Another couple of years and I may go play live. :wink:
