Good luck. You're at the gate and setting out. It's new to you and you're going to have a few roadblocks along the way. These usually coming earlier on. Don't get discouraged and work your way through. Once you get the hang of playing, therre is nothing more awesome. Most importantly, enjoy playing no matrer how good you are. It's music and something we all love for a reason.
