I have been practicing a lot since my last post on hear and I really don't see a whole lot of progress for the amount of time I put in.
Is it common to go trough periods where you don't feel real comfortable playing and is there a point where it just seems to come natural (if that makes any sense)
Here are some clips I recorded, any advice would be appreciated

Rockin in the Free World-Neil Young
Man I can have the problem in a night. . . many times even.
It comes and goes in cycles. You'll feel really drained and nothing more to give and then the next night you have been inspired by something or all of a sudden something you've been going over just starts to click.
Yes, you are not alone.
It's all a plot in the big scheme.
Keep at it. You'll get past this lull and experience many more. It's how you handle the doubting moments that'll put you onto the next level. :D

Yes I've been that way since I've started. Seriously though it absolutely works that way. YOu'll practice something for hours, days and even weeks and never seem to make any progress and then bingo one day it clicks.
It may seem like the practice doesn't help but it does just keep plugging away you'll get there.
"It's all about stickin it to the man!"
It's a long way to the top if you want to rock n roll!
It's reassuring that this is common. From listening to the clips I posted is there anything that sticks out that I need to practice more?
