I'd post a clip if the one I had wasn't a paid-for recording...sorry.

minus a note or two i think its pretty accurate actually, i'm no where near playing it up to speed at all but after listening to the recordings i have (sorry paul they're illegal to post or i would) i think its a decent tab

Yeah I think it's pretty close...sorry, I didn't mean to say it was way off. There are a couple of little spots but on the whole it's pretty good. That's one of the toughest pieces that I learned when I was studying classical music seriously...good for you for challenging yourself.

I can sing and play almost 80% of Dave's shit by memory, but I can't for the life of me commit one measure of that to memory. Thats so long!

I've once played this and it was kind of tuff to memorize everything.
But classical music is quite nice to play and it's well worth it! You can always give it your "own style and dynamics" and have real pleasure playing.

8 or so for me. I have riffs and lyrics, but no arrangements or anything... I wish I liked my own stuff. I write something and then end up hating it and scraping the idea. I know it's not bad, but I fear other people won't like it, stupid I know, but eh... My goal is to finish those within the next month or so, and maybe lay down a CD. Not to go big or anything, but just something to listen to and critique until I get better, and maybe let others listen to it. It's a long ways away, I know, but thats the ultimate goal.

I've just recently gotten Bach's Bourree from the Lute suite down and I'm going to take a crack at the rest of the suite over the summer.

In the meantime I'm working on a suite from a dude named Francois Campion, but I can't remember the name of the suite.

And on top of all that I try to learn at least a song every other day. Its kinda hard to do that with all the classes though. And I mean songs that can be lengthy with difficult riffs or things like that.

Heres the bach one:

man that would take me forever, not because i can't read music because i can, i've just never combined reading music with guitar playing, i've almost always relied on tabs...
