Yeah it does require concentration. But considering that I chord songs (in an unofficial capacity in one case) to play myself just by listening to the music, being able to sing it back to yourself is a must :)

Ultimate-guitar has been a good friend to me too and sometimes if it's a song that I've done myself and I compare it to someone else, it tends just to have been chorded in a different key :)

Chording by listening is all about trial and error. Some things will work, some won't.

Yeah, once I was training some chords and I though 'humm... this chord looks just like the one in Leva-me contigo's song guess what, got it right XD


I had to put the name of the song, because it's a very beautiful song, only acoustic guitar and singer - Duarte Rosado -. Check it :P     link

One of my favourite bands, Def Leppard, the drummer actually only has one arm. I saw them live in concert a few weeks ago, and they were absolutely amazing. I also play the drums and find it hard enough with 2 arms, amazing to see someone play with only one arm.

As for guitar, I like to think I can play a little accoustic, but I really have no idea what Im doing, lol. Slowly trying to learn though when I have the time to.

Yeah it does require a lot of practice...


Funny thing, yesterday I had to play to john doe.... XD

Me and some friends of mine went to a bar near the beach and a friend of mine brought his acoustic, so I could play some songs and so. After a while in the bar one of my friends called me to play a song to the guys that were in the table next to us, they were already drunk so they enjoyed the music... (and the guitar was totally out of tune) LOL but was cool, playing to other people.
