Can't the past ever go away ?
Perhaps it doesn't have to stay
Perhaps there is a better way
Than to its tempting lure fall prey
Indeed life is quite a journey
Hardships, burdens, and come what may
Why carry those of yesterday…"

Who Am I and What do I Play?
When people ask me what I play, I usually say "I try and play the same as the rest of the band." I play numerous styles with and without plectrum. "Who Am I?" " I'm Tony Hogan, a guitar player who lives in Australia who has played for 40 years, studied jazz guitar with Ike Isaacs ( think Grapelli Quartet with Diz Disley,; Martin Taylor ) and I also studied with Ashok Roy a senior student of Ustad Ali Akbar Khan. I run a couple of Acoustic Guitar Blogs Acoustic Guitarist and the Guitars and they have had over 350,000 visitors, so I guess they must be of relevance to other players. I also have an electric guitar blog as well, I'm hesitant to mention it for fear of upsetting the Acoustic Guitar Demi Gods Electricguitarist
Because I play numerous styles, the benefit is if I get a bit musically dry I can jump into another area of music and quickly be inspired. Celtic, Open tunings, Blues Folk, Bluegrass and other styles. Music, ultimately is about feelings, emotions. We need a great technique and a certain amount of virtuosity to be able to express these emotions to the fullest,

HELP!!!! Blogging and Being Social - Anybody Out There?
As a Guitar Blogger who has written hundreds of articles, not only on guitar but other topics, over a two year period I've had close on 400,000 visitors to a few of my blog sites, as I see it as a great way of communicating and quickly getting stuff out there, I also run an IT Social Network for Web Development. In this time I'm learnt a lot about what works, what doesn't, and how people respond.

DADGAD Arrangement TAB and Notation - Gypsy Rover
I have just reposted a DADGAD of Gypsy Rover which I did a couple of years ago. It's simple and straight forward. Share it with students if you like or build it into an arrangement with variations. Click to go to article DADGAD Gypsy Rover

Add a Little Jazz to Your Acoustic Guitar Playing - TAB and Music Sheet
I've uploaded a simple Chord Doco using triads for those guitar players wishing to add a little jazz style accompaniment to their playing. It is in TAB and dots. I learnt this technique years ago from British Jazz great Ike Isaacs. I had uploaded previously to the web, but in an oversight I called it 1 6 4 5 progression because I used one of my other templates.
I have found this sort of playing very useful for accompanying singers. Using the triads allows for greater mobility and… Continue

A Guitar Players Nerd and Geek Moment
I have had two computers have problems in the last 3 weeks. As I also work in the IT industry, a quick reminder to back up any of your work, particularly your music that you spent hours recording and editing.
As I just spent the last hour and a half fixing a TC Electronic Sound Card issue and have lost a little hair in the process, I thought it would be a nice idea to remind other guitar players that bypass these thought of things consider the option creatig duplicate copies saved… Continue

Gurian Guitars Anyone?
I have a Gurian guitar made around about 1980. When Pierre Bensusan saw it, he sad that he recorded his first album on the same model. Also some years ago in a Stefa Grossman book, he had also recommended them. Does anyone else here play one?

Can't the past ever go away ?
Perhaps it doesn't have to stay
Perhaps there is a better way
Than to its tempting lure fall prey
Indeed life is quite a journey
Hardships, burdens, and come what may
Why carry those of yesterday ?
When the future is on its way
Promises of a brand new day
From gloominess do shy away
Forgive oneself, hurting allay
And allow guilt its holiday
Listen to the musicians play
They sing the song of the blue jay
Let the sun outshine the clouds grey
Trust only joy to show the way
hope you have an inspired & fulfilling week ! :o)
