Lesson 1: Interstate Love Song

Built upon a solid foundation of rock guitar chord strumming, it is a great way to improve your rhythm playing and an overall fun song to perform. It will challenge your ability to play and move barre chords around the neck while keeping a strumming pattern in your picking hand.

This is one of a few lessons put together by Neil's friend Matt B., who was blind since birth and took lessons from Neil when he was in high school. Tragically, he is no longer with us but we are thankful to have a handful of lessons he was able to do for TG.

This Stone Temple Pilots tune is fairly simple, yet very catchy and rhythmic. The single note riffs are fairly easy to learn, however they will test your sense of rhythm and timing.
