Hi there, and Happy New year to whoever is reading this. I will be listing my New year's resolutions here and when i look back at 2011 i hope i can say i have achieved all or most of them....nah, all of them. I know i have liste my objectives in the video on the homepage, but this will be a more comprehensive list with explanations and any extra stuff i think i should add which wasn't in the video....Anyhoo, let's start. 1) I want to make a music video every week - 52 in all, hopefully every Monday. I want at least 10 of them to be collaberations with other youtubers, 2 to be fully animated, and at least one to be fully VST ( Virtual Studio Technology) created.
2) I'd like to make talking videos every two weeks. These would be more vloggy wherei would chat for a few minutes. If they don't take off, i will gladly pack the idea in as a bad idea. 3) I will be starting from scratch with my 10,000 minutes practice for the year. This works out at roughly 28 minut

I posted my last song early, a couple of days ago. I worked with Tperusic on it and it is my first proper collab video. I am very pleased with how it came out, and i plan to do more collab videos...i just need to find people to collaberate with. I never counted my minutes this week, and to be honest i never really picked up the guitar this week apart from making the song video...probably 40 minutes total if i'm lucky. I've decided to zero my coun ting for the New year and make 10,000 a year goal for next year...along with some other things (i'm making a list right now) that i will put in my new year video. I will be making a video about what i plan to achieve in the next year. Among the list will be to make a music video every week, to run 1000 km in the year (with video based consaquences), to make a totally animated video, to make 10 collab videos at least...to build my web site, and other things i might add. This will be as much for myself as for others to see, and as

Hi there. I posted my latest video in the video section, please enjoy. I liked doing it, and i may return to it at a later date and make it more structured. I was actually jamming around the chords i have for another song i am doing (going to be IJAR5) where i am teaming up with a cool dude named..."tperusic" on youtube. He got two of the six slots on happy cabbie's page and subbed ot me (and i returned the favour). After seeing how prolific he was with his vids i PM'd him and suggested we colab a bit...I should have something done for next week. Anyhoo...while jamming around with the chords i used for that ( capo on the 2nd fret) i came up with this. I only managed around 100 minutes practice this week. Christmas is coming, and the wife has my free time that work hasn't stolen from me. 4005 minutes, can't see me hitting 5000 before new year, but that WOULD be a great achievement...just to be able to post that magic number. I will set myself a year target for new y

First off...250 minutes playing this week, making 3905 since May. I'd love to finish 5000 for year end, but i doubt it would be possible. Three big things have happened in the world of...well, Huck's world. 1) I won the ebay auction and got my video featured on Happy Cabbie's page and video...he has promised 4000 views, but that's not the big thing...Youtube sent me an e-mail saying my video was eligable for The individual video partnership program...this means i can put adsense on this video if it is accepted, and i've decided to do it (after chatting with Cabbie). This is a first step to partnership, but i know it is just a taste of what is over the next few hills and valleys, not round the corner. My video has had 1800 views but i've only got like three subscribers from all those views...i may never get a video watched by so many people again and for so few people to actually sub to my channel is quite disheartening to say the least. 2) Happy Cabbie has agre

Hi there all. If you're reading this then Thank you. First off, i clocked up 270 minutes this week. That's 3655 minutes since i started this (29th may, i just looked). Secondly the new video. I was jammming away trying to think up a riff for a new video for Monday when i cremembered a couple of songs i used to play to myself - Welcome ot the Machine, and Prodigal Son. Prodigal son came first bringing in a verse starting in E minor, which after a mess about reminded me of Welcome to the Machine...then i remembered a song i wrote myself back way back....way way back in the day, not even sure if i gave it a title. It was a mellow song about a guy walking down the street and seeing a homeless guy, and being told to "Fuck off" by him for staring at him. The idea was to create an impression of a mystical event like finding an old wise man (how drifters are often portrayed in films, or they were at least), only for it to be shattered by real life. At the time i w
