My Last Days on Earth

Here’s an awesome tune I learned recently. I’ve identified a few areas to improve in this video. I should have kept tremoloing longer in several spots, and I could have been more precise with my up the neck notes. If you have any other advice, I’m open to suggestions. If not, I hope you enjoy listening!

Oh, before you ask, the tuning is

Wow, that is awesome. Great job bud.

Does that tune have lyrics? Not for nothin’, I’m really noticing steady improvement on all of your instruments. I really enjoyed that.

I loved that!! Never heard it before, it’s similar to the old north woods, yet very different. Great job!

Thanks everyone! And sorry for freaking y’all out :joy::blush: FWIW, I took this arrangement almost completely from a video of Lauren Price playing the tune.

Thanks! Glad you enjoyed and welcome to the forum!
