How about a Lick of the day?/week?...

I was trying to think of an idea that would bring all the HC guitarists together that went beyond debates, chatting, and other routine activities and this is what I came up with:

 

What if we had a "Lick of the Day" or some variation of this where a guitarist posts an mp3 of a specific phrase they came up with so that other guitarists can learn the idea and incorporate it in their own playing? I was thinking about breaking the concept down to the following criteria:

 

1. There would be 3 levels the licks would fall under:

 

1.Beginner

2.Intermediate

3.Advanced

 

2. The lick would be played slowly first and then up to tempo

3. There would be a description for each lick that describes its possibilities of application, origin, and its harmonic content.

4. Their could be a thread that has a sign up sheet for who's turn it is for the L.O.T.D. and it would be a "sticky" thread so that everyone can see who's next and when they will be posting.

 

I'm pretty new to HC and I don't know if this has ever been done before around here, but I think it would be really cool and I hope we can make it happen. Let me know what you think, and tell me if you have any suggestions that could make this concept work.

 

Peace.

hehe I remember suggesting this before and nobody picked up on it, a few people said it was a bad idea... but I like the idea, so I guess we now have 4 votes..

so we would sign up and then it would be our turn to post or something?

Yeah, exactly. Let's say you had a blues lick you came up with and wanted to post it. You would sign up for let's say...April 2nd under the Lick of the Day sign up thread, and then you would be the man for the L.O.T.D. on April 2nd. Dig?

- basic pentatonic lick - Gilmour is King of making them into musical magic. Tabbed out on my site if you need it.

Okay cool, but was that an original or just you playing a Gilmour lick note for note. The criteria states that the lick must be original!
Good lick either way though.:) I hope more people get in on this so we can get started, or maybe if we start, the people will come..
