Precision

I find I have a whole bunch of songs that I "can" play, but that don't really sound like music to me. Some of that's probably that they're so familiar, or that the versions I'm playing are so simple, but some of it is that I think I'm just not precise enough.

I find that practicing alone I settle for all sorts of mistimings, buzzing strings, etc. I tried working on that one day last week and had very sore hands the next day!

I figure if I say it out loud here maybe that'll keep me honest!
