Busking With Backing Tracks

TheGarethJones · June 3

Here’s something to stir the pot. Jimmy Rosenberg playing with backing tracks. Obviously, he was going through a strange time in life and I wish him well. It’s interesting to hear what virtuosity with backing tracks gives.

You're two pages too late my friend. It is an odd scene though, Jimmy Rosenberg couldn't find a pickup band for a gig?

I had a feeling this might be posted already but I hadn’t visited the thread in a while. My mistake!

You just need to play like Tim and no need for backing tracks

Just wondering, does anyone do this? Yes, some do.

I have a hankering to be outside playing guitar but GJ is hard without a band. Things can be hard until they aren't and then they can be hard again depending on various circumstances- like anything else in life.

I am morally opposed to performing with backing tracks but I also think I should be out playing a lot more. Sounds like you have a self-imposed dilemma. Luckily, you are an adult and it's safe to assume that no third parties will be harmed (outside of maybe a hissy fit or a bit of cringe) by the decision you end up making.
