Although I left my country to move to another country years ago, this article tells the story of emigration to other countries. I moved mostly for family reasons but these days economic reasons top the list.  Although most people who know it, think about China these days or even Japan for employment and in some cases you can do quite well moving to these countries.

Well here is the article;

Can you play some AC/DC?????

You shook me all-night long.


sorry James I can't

if I can locate the score for you , I'll post it


also you can look under tabs where I've been posting complete tabs (website)  what is nice about it is that they are the originals by the musicians themselves

I felt you had movement in your playing
So you are on track


If you want to connect more with your rhythm strums , think of lyrics in you head and play and sing them silently and the melody in your playing will become more richer  default/smile

Do you read and speak Japanese John???


My level really is just "introductory level", but for the music it is with tab so that is one reason I buy them. Also BB King is getting up there and I feel the issues with him on it are going to be collector magazines  and also the same with Eric and Beck   seems that is all they post these days on the front cover.

I'm teaching myself how to read and write recently, but I've gotten along ok with out much language skills so far  default/sad

The one that I buy twice a year is "Guitar Magazine" that is the Japanese copy and it goes for ¥700

Has some nice training exercises in it too


I don't think they put a DVD in these issues though

Hey John, I'm actually launching a brand new finger tapping course soon.
I'll keep you guys updated!  It's going to have videos, pdf lessons, audios, and more.

Who are your favorite finger tappers?  Eddie?  Petrucci? etc...


to be honest with you, I don't know the first thing about it, that is why I checked out your site. Always like to learn something new if possible

keep us updated on your site, you might start a new thread when you have a video on your stuff

Interesting article on cheese


I would like to say Japan is not really a cheese eating country until recently and it is so expensive here where take out pizza can run as high as $32  and they don't really taste all that great either

I tried to create a jazz feeling on this one. Straight guitar playing is a bit boring but I tried to put  a melody/lead/rhythm to this

your comments are appreciated

This is an interesting article. What people don't know is that the US is not a member of the Asian community, they will become one next year.  Hillary was just an invited guest at the summit, not a participant . The news made it look like she was there, but the fact was she was just an onlooker.

Anyway please read the comments on the article. A lot of truth in some of them how America turn countries against each other for the US can come to ones rescue and in the end put another military base in their country
