Beginner Guitar Chord Progressions – Let’s Take Step Two

Step two in the online lead guitar lessons series is basic chord progressions.  We teach a simple chord progression based on the simple chords you learned in lesson one (electric guitar chords) and then ask you to record yourself playing the progression for a few minutes to save for later use.  By the end of this lesson you’ll know one of the most commonly used chord progressions in all of music and will be able to play it proficiently.  You will also know enough to be able to play easy songs on guitar with other musicians – and possibly be ready to jam very basic songs on stage with more experienced musicians.  Kewl enough?

Once you have lesson two down pat (and recorded, remember???) you’ll be on to lesson three, your first guitar note chart (scales).  Remember as always you can sign up to see the free video lessons online.

  1. Hot Future Jobs for the Next Decade - findemailaddresss jimdo page! linked to this post on November 14, 2009

    [...] Hot Future Jobs for the Next Decade Hard to believe but there are hot future jobs to consider jumping into in both common occupations and some real odd-balls. The actual number of total jobs may not be that great for some careers however the wages are just as real. There were a number of surprises in the 2008-09 Occupational Handbook this time around. Several high growth rate jobs were mainstream (think financial and tech) but others were flung far afield. None of the following occupations is expected to grow slower than thrity percent over the decade long projection. From the BLS 2008-09 Occupational Outlook (results from Table I-5) Network Systems and Data Communications Analysts – Expecting a 50% increase Computer Software Applications Engineers – Anticipating forty percent plus expansion Personal Financial Advisors – Upwards of 40% Make-Up Artists – Theatrical Not many positions (1000) but still nearly 40% growth rate for this specialized field Veterinarians – Expected 35% growth – maybe 22000 jobs Substance Abuse and Behavioral Disorder Counselors – Net expansion suggested to be 34% Financial Analysts – Study was completed prior to the Lehman implosion so this 34% is very sketchy Physical Therapist Assistants – An outgrowth of demographic shift (33%) Forensic Science Technicians – 30% Perhaps inspired by the wave of criminal forensic television shows Dental Hygienists – Thirty percent growth expected in this more standard occupation These are expected to be the hot future jobs (by growth rate) in the next few years – as best as the government can project. No one can be sure whether any or all of the hot future jobs will come open but there are a number of industries expected to expand – even despite the recent contractions in 2009. There were noticeably few hot future jobs listed for careers requiring less than a post secondary education – a few in construction – that was about it. Reference: Projections and estimates for this brief article came from data provided by the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Bureau of Labor Statistics. Occupational Outlook Handbook (2008-09). Table I-5: Above-average growth and above-average wage occupations, by educational attainment cluster and wages, 2006 and projected 2016. From: Bureau of Labor Statistics web site: http://www.bls.gov/emp/optd/ The job market is competitive right now but given the expanding opportunities in health care, higher education and software applications can make for a terrific future. Get ahead of the game and get the right qualifications and certifications to land one of the hot future careers.
