Michael Jackson tribute...

It was a usual morning and I just tuned into morning news and the news just flashed.
I was shocked to hear it and an instant feeing of sadness came into me..

Long time back when I was in school we had our gathering about 10-15 years back don't remember the exact year a group had performed on the song "Black Or White" and I instantly connected to that song, that time I was not so much into English pop then..

I used to listen to many of MJs songs such as "They don't really care..", "Earth Song.." and so on...I also remember when he had come to perform in Mumbai...him meeting Bal Thakrey and all that was a very different experience for me..

His passing away surely will create a huge void in the Music world just like Elvis Presley..

God bless his family and children and may his soul rest in Peace.

This is the first every song of MJ which I heard when I was in school...

Guitar Lessons of beginners

Here is a list of very simple guitar exercises.Please note following things before you begin.

The numbers in the fret board indicate the order in which you need to play the guitar
By default
The first fret has to be played by Index finger
The second fret has to be played by middle finger
The third fret has to be played by ring finger
The fourth fret has to be played by pinky (small) finger

It is essential and a good habit have a metronome with you to make sure you are in some tempo throughout the exercise.Always alternate the pick down then up.Its a bad habit to pick only in one direction either down or up.
