Chris, thanks for the feedback on the tension in my right hand. I've been messing with my technique based on your comment. Does this look more on point? 

thanks!

Yes, that looks better, especially on the second solo. There is a grace that wasn't there before. How doesn't it feel?

This sounds great! I love that you got that passing Bb chord in there under the sung verse. One thing that might help: try opening up your right hand slightly so that you are not making a fist. I see some tension in your right hand and wrist and that may be where it's originating. If you watch Tony you will see that his middle and ring fingers are extended out from his hand ever so slightly, acting almost like a depth guage. In my experience, opening my fingers up in my right hand can help my wrist relax. That said, YMMV.

Great job though! Keep going with it!
