| I've sorta been there before. Like man, i can't wait to get home and play! but then I didn't when I got there. The biggest thing for me was to find new things to learn, once I got comfortable with more scales, then i went to theory, and then funk, then jazz, and just keep rolling with it so you don't get stuck. But you have to WANT to learn more, and be a better player. As for practicing, learn different songs, go to youtube, figure out some songs, and play along with them. Even go for some that aren't even your style, for instance, I played in a punk band, but I loved playing blues and funk when practicing.
Just hang in there, and take things one step at a time. |
