Is it hard to make harvest?

Fundamentals are probably important. I kind of get the feeling that the Babymetal plan was like trying to learn painting by first attempting to recreate the ceiling of the Cistine Chapel. Those kids are nuts!  I'm reminded that well before I got good at guitar, I was a band nerd playing the saxophone in school. So I learned a lot about the fundamentals of music and played a lot of it, and spent a few years being terrible, then mediocre, at those things before I ever picked up the guitar. I probably picked up some innate sense of how music works from all that experience, and that made guitar an easier transition.

I was also lucky because when I was starting guitar, it was like 1993 and everyone was into Nirvana. It was all easy power chords. Basically, paint-by-numbers level difficulty.

I have no better advice, though, than that you keep working at your own speed. THAT will serve you better than anything.

Yeah, I need to learn the basics of heavy metal rhythm guitar and guitar in general before I start trying to learn difficult songs. I think I'll also learn those beginner level songs, but I'll wait until I've got all the fundamentals down before trying to tackle a difficult song. Dunno which one I'll try to tackle when I do though.
