Hello there. The time has come to ask for more advice. I'm going to be referring to this video a bit:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yeRaUjTBuv0
Okay. So... I have a few questions. How would I go about learning something like that without tabs? It's not a lack of skill problem that I'm having (that might be a teensy part of it), but maybe a lack of self esteem. I'll listen to something like that song up there, and even if it's not my favorite song, that expressiveness is something I am for. So I think to myself... "I want to learn how he did that."
So how it's been so far is that if there is no tabs for it, I'm probably not learning it (unless it's something a tab more simple, chords and whatnot). Also, if I have a clear view of their hands (I'm not talking three feet away or anything), I can figure out the big picture and fill in the nuances. But purely by ear? I'm frightened.
So how do you do it? Am I just "not good enough" yet? Like I said, maybe it's more of a self esteem issue rather than a skill issue. I know someone can help. There's some zen wisdom on the internet (just a tad!).
Plenty of love to all of you. Have a good day.
