Not my best playing, but it was nerves I guess.
My high school talent show this past December.

That was pretty good.

The audio wasn't that great on the recording, but it sounded pretty good!!!!

Well my dad recorded that with some basic recorder.

But more people were suprised by the guitar playing O.o

What were you guys playing?

"Foxey Lady"- Jimi Hendrix

Except we sped it up a bit and our guitarist added his own flavor while I added some punch to the drums.

Not bad.. be careful to keep consistent tempo though when playing fills.. make sure the fills add to the music also.

You've got a good foundation to build on, I would suggest practice to a metronome more often if you have one, and also studying with a teacher aswell (you probably already are)..

I've had a teacher before except I quit the lessons after I felt a bit more confident about my abilities (that's been almost 3-4 years since)

We did go back and play it a month after the show and somehow I sounded ten times better and the fills fit, I guess I just really wasn't concentrating enough that night.

It's weird, I practice a few hours a day more often now and my playing seems to improve incredibly fast.
