Brad, I learned Piano basics from this lady. I honestly went from no experience to an "easy" version of the Interstellar theme song in a few days. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bzNKQ2FkEJI

2025-01-25 23:21:13 +0000 UTCJust wanna say about Root Trees are Dead, what boring, bad, nothing game! What a pathetic patheticly simple game. What a waste of my time, watching it. Yuck!

2025-01-25 05:41:56 +0000 UTCI'd love to see Brad finish Ancient Gods. Part 2 is some of the best stuff in that game. And Alex, thanks for the drum pad idea. Been playing guitar for over 20 years but, I can't stick to a drum routine since I can't always practice at the kit. Got a practice pad and I've been consistently screwing around the past few days. Already seeing improvement.
