Get Out Of Your Rut

Lord, have mercy! Does every song have to be in G or A? As I recline on the shrink's couch I vent my frustrations of playing everything in just one or two keys and playing the same songs over and over (ad nauseum).

Just for novelty, if nothing else, try playing in B or B-flat just once! I'd happily play a song in G# or Eb just for freaking relief!

In this episode I share three ideas for getting out of your rut. Learn to play in new keys. Try new tunings and, for cryin' out loud, bring a new song to the table once in a while.

Now is the season to get your copy of Jackson's Christmas Songs for Mandolin eBook. You can get it here. Every purchase puts Christmas bucks in his pocket and maybe he can get me a really nice pair of socks or a set of strings with his massive profits.
