In the grand tradition of frustrated guitarists everywhere, I find myself on a quest to attempt to try and learn riffs and solos one missed note at a time. 🎸
By day, I play with a pub covers band named Plato & The Bees—a philosophical outfit, in the sense that we contemplate the nature of existence while belting out Rock and Indie covers to a select audience of pint-bearing connoisseurs. It’s a long way from Wembley, but the beer is better, and the applause, though sporadic, is heartfelt.
In a moment of questionable judgment, I’ve decided to post videos of these musical endeavours. Expect a mix of songs and solos, and pray the tuning gods are on my side. As for my neighbours? They remain in stoic endurance.
I’ve thrown in some random indulgences too—film locations, fighter jets and my midlife tattoo crisis. So, pull up a chair and prepare for a ride through the weird, wonderful, and often out-of-tune world of my guitar journey.
