This blog is dedicated to the idea that learning and playing guitar should be as fun as possible. It is a fine read if you are starting to learn guitar from scratch and if you tend to search for ways to be more creative.

Twyla Tharp secretly wants to play feedback guitar.

Ok, I am just kidding. But should the world's most famous dance choreographer ever want to play guitar, I wonder if she would be drawn to play noise. Noise, as it is, is difficult to allow oneself to do only before a person really lets go of self-criticism. Doing that is easier, I believe, when one let's go of distractions (or perhaps pillars as Hugh Macleod would put it). Pillars and distractions are about the same things: They are the objects or habits that keep us from engaging our creativity.As Twyla Tharp lovingly puts it in her wonderful book, The Creative Habit: Learn It and Use It for Life:I want to place myself in a bubble of monomaniacal absorbtion where I'm fully invested in the task at hand. ...I list the biggest distractions in my life and make a pact with myself to do without them for a week.Great advice. For me? Say goodbye to email on the weekends. Want to get a hold of me to hang out? You better call me. No more books for awhile too. Also, no more blogging twice a day...
