I had suggested to Lawson to try to play a take without looking at the fingerboard. I thought that I would put my money where my mouth is, and give it a try myself. Actually not that natural...
When I get stressed playing the guitar I pucker up my lips like a fish :grumpy: Instinctively when that happens I move my head towards the guitar body to pretend I'm kissing it. Happened a couple of...
