Congratulations! First off,

Congratulations! First off, Thank you Dave for the Lessons. This is the first time that I have ever experienced a band that loves their fans as much as Lady A. Dave, you have broken new ground, in helping your fans gain another level of understanding, and enjoyment of bands music. I've not seen this from other top bands. The music touches the hidden feelings I've stashed away in some of the painful, or secret places in my mind and heart. Thank you so much Lady A for the music!!! I wish you all the love, and success possible. God Bless You!

Thanks for the instructional video, Dave. I loved watching you show the keys to playing "Need You Now" on guitar and now I like this one too :0). My sister is learning how to play guitar so I'll have to show her your two videos.

Dave your my hero! I've

Dave your my hero! I've bought myself a guitar and a teach yourself kit for Christmas. I know what your thinking about teaching yourself. I'm not doing bad. But I would have to say this is my first real song outside of the star spangled banner or when the saints go marching in. THANK YOU!

Great Lesson! Thanks Dave. I

Great Lesson!

Thanks Dave. I love your guitar lessons. It's much easier watching you show us how to play every chord than guessing with tabs online. I think everyone really appreciates the effort you put into these lessons and how you make it look so easy. Thanks again! Can't wait for the next lesson and looking forward to seeing you all in Boston! :)

This is so cool, Dave! I

This is so cool, Dave! I don't play guitar but admire those who can. Piano lessons here but I always wanted to learn guitar. You have learned well if you can show someone else, I feel.

Watching this gave me a better idea of just what a collaborative process it must be to write, record and produce a song for us to enjoy.

This just shows why you guys are so awesome and seeing so much success! The fact that you take the time to do something as small as a little guitar video shows your love for music and great personalities which is why i LOVE Lady A!!!! Not to mention great song writting and addicting vocals. KEEP IT UP!!!!
