Hey Chris.  Just wanted to send this video by way of an introduction.  Any thoughts about technique or note choice would be greatly appreciated.  This is my take on Gold Rush, played Tony style, with a bit of my own stuff scattered throughout.  All thoughts welcome and appreciated!

Hi Ryan, great playing! I particularly liked it when you played your own solo starting around 0:50 because the dynamics came alive. Loud notes were loud and surprising and there was a dynamic countour to your phrases. That's all stuff to invest in! When you were playing the melodies or the Tony solo note for note it was all a bit flat by comparison. See if you can find a natural way to bring those dynamics into playing the melody.

Great to have you here, looking forward to hearing more!

Chris
