Everything starts somewhere right? Well the Universe got the Big Bang and me, well I was never that much into fireworks.
So here I am, making a gentle splash into the pond. Some folk believe the small ripples at the start can spread out to become larger and in some cases spread through the entire pond. Me I’m more of a “anything can happen” guy. I don’t really have much expectation other than to do what I’m doing right now the best I can every time and to see where that takes me.
So who am I and what is this site?
My name as you’ll know doubt gather from the self titled blog, is Phil Haymes. I’m a 28 year old aspiring guitarist aiming to break away from the ‘proper’ job I currently have and try to make a living doing what I love – music.
What I’d like to do with this blog is document the process of writing my first album whilst balancing the day job and also continue to learn more guitar. It’s not aimed in any way as an ego boost, I don’t believe I’m one of the best guitarists in the world or anything so grande, my challenge has been and always will be internal – I’m competing with myself to become a better guitarist and develop my own unique style.
My intention will be to document the ups and downs, share with you what I’m currently learning, riffs that I’m writing, things that I like and dislike… basically the whole process warts and all! I aim to have plenty of video content, sound clips and maybe a few other nuggets lined up along the way. I’ll also be doing some short video lessons in the near future.
So if you’re reading this, thanks for stopping by! Please feel free to leave any comments and I hope you’ll stay along for the ride wherever it may take us ^_^
I’ll get going with some content just as soon as I get the site layout done.
Phil
