    You look more comfortable now than you did previously.
    Especially when you alt picked across the strings at the end.

    Keep practicing and work on getting you scalpel moving.
    The Sarod I didnt see a whole lot of but I think you may still be getting it down.

    Also the sound was low...but thats ok....keep practicing.

    Nah...he was on a sarod. I couldnt believe how fast he zipped around weaving in and out of modes. The youtube stuff is nothing compared to what he was doing! Tame!

    I kid you not even John shook his head when Barun took off.

    Ask Pebber....
    We both just fucking looked at each other....!

    I remeber we got there late...they closed th doors and wouldnt let anyone in....and then they started....the most amazing sounds flowed out of Royce Hall. Complete disbelief!

    Theeeeeeeeeee MOST AMAZINGGGGGG I have EVER experienced...

    WAS BARUN KUMAR PAL!
    LIVE
    With Shakti at Royce Hall UCLA 10 years ago with Pebber.

    I fucking cried
    no shit

    broke down because I knew this was theeee most fucking beautiful music I ever heard AND the speed wasnt even the main tech. The speed was there but was used as a tool rather than the main focus. bUT as far as speed...faster than MAC...faster than me of course....faster than I believe even Shawn....I dont know that one because I was too busy crying...and amazed.

    BARUN KUMAR PAL

    My own inspiration for music and where I want to be with my playing

    Dont think about the forearm yet....
    If you do you will end up compensating for finger strength...you dont want to do that.
    the forearm movement is yet another technique that must be thought of by itself. Finger strength first....later it will come.
    I am making a video...hopefully soon I will post a question thread as to the validity of this idea and the uses of it.

    Just spend the time and isolate your fingers for strength.

    hehehe...lol...
    Thats a good observation...but....not for now for now you MUST isolate the fingers for strength...

    Normal....no huge problems see besides the fact you just started training your fingers.

    Yes curve your fingers more when you are practicing the trill.

    The one thing you have to really..REALLY get down is when you practice for your technique you MUST practice with as perfect technique as you can. That means ultra slow if need be. Curve your fingers in like a claw to the point of almost cramping. Keep them tight and try to ISOLATE the fingers you are moving.

    We all screw up our technique especially in a live situation. I screw up all the time. LOL.
    BuT I will never stop training my fingers in hopes of perfect technique. Thats a lifetime of work...you will never stop...hehe.

    I have problems with my pinky as well. But I still work at it.

    Have the mind set that you will never reach an end as far as daily practice routines. You just dont....you will always tweek it....fix it....ect. Its a solid foundation for you to use as a guide.

    Good video

    Man!!
    LSD!!

    Ok.....there are two things that bother me intensly!!

    1. World speed picking records where the guy has effects ON!
    If your going to go fro a world speed picking record do it on an aqoustic!!!
    Or dont do it at all!

    2. And this one I shouldnt say anything about it because i dont practice the tech. and I cant play it that well(because I dont practice it)
    and that is.....tape or a sock or something over the strings to dampen the string noise when using a two handed tech. I know I shouldnt say anything but that bothers me! A good technique is one where you can use with othe techniques and be able to switch quickly between them. The sock or tape just seems like cheating to me.... The guy is obviously a great player but in my opinion...he is using a crutch with the tape over the strings....yeah I know i know.....just my 2 cents. I have ideas that I dont show because they have a crutch behind them...sooo...I dont use them unless I am screwing around.

    I like the guy....goodt!
    I wished he would share the drug he is on!

    Your routine may change from time to time.....just stick with the daily routine from Pebber until you can become comfortable with it. Then after maybe a couple of years change it in order to maximize the time needed on what you are weak on. OR work on the items you are about to excel at. It takes a long time of practicing in order to come up with your own routine. So for now....use what Pebber has on pdf's and that will be an great GREAT start.

    Like always I advertise the trill and Sarod Hybrid-one part scalpel one part Sarod. You cant go wrong with the trill. Also you should be writing out the scale patterns with a pencil...10 times each per day. This will be the basics...my opinion.

    On a more advanced note...for me....I organize all of my routines according to symmetric patterns. I really try to change it up so I am always challenged with certain fingerings that screw with me. I then apply the daily routine to these patterns rather than sticking to a scale definition. That is what would be my routine...but I have been playing for a while so I understand what the attributes are and how to find them for my own practice routine. That would be an example of changing a routine for your own benefit.
    Just stick to the daily routine....you will not go wrong.
