Praise Band Question?
Okay i play in my church’s praise band i play electric guitar i only played once and the guy who runs it said i will playing again real soon but i think too myself if i am any good at guitar so my question is if i wasn’t good at guitar or couldn’t handle it would i be in the praise band? i mean it is leading worship for the youth group(teens) and when was at a guitar practice with my friend who is the main guitarist for praise band i was learning some songs for when i am on stage and after that like 15 minutes before i left i was doing some sweep picking just some 3 string arpeggios and the guy running the praise band also the youth leader said i have talent i just need to apply myself what does that mean?and other people said i was good and one person said amazing so if i am good how come i don’t believe that is it just low confidence? please answer all the questions.
1, if you weren’t any good at guitar or if the guy running the praise band thought you couldn’t handle it, you wouldn’t be in the band.
2. "You have talent, you just need to apply yourself" basically means you’re good, you just need to practice more.
3. You probably ARE good, you just have low self-confidence. Remember, YOU hear what the music is supposed to sound like in your head and notice EVERY tiny little mistake you make in comparison to that, but everyone else just hears what’s coming out of your guitar, and to them it sounds pretty darn good.
