Well I mean like if someone says play so and so chord I cant do it(Original post by imasillynarb)

I want to learn but I'm too lazy really.

Van Halen - Eruption
or
Lynyrd Skynyrd - Freebird
10 minutes later:
ok just digged around my mp3s and found Eruption. It's just 6 minutes of mindless soloing - seriously it's not even a song, and you must be kidding me to try to work out a 6-minute IMPROVISED solo! If you want me to make my OWN 6 minute solo equivalent to that one, then please say so
I hope you realise Van Halen is more or less improvising i.e. he is pretty much playing the solo completely randomly but within various scales.
I want an actual "song" to work out and play where there are lyrics and picking would be nice too. -

Eruption is a minute and a half and isn't improvised on their album. Though he does improvise when playing it live I think. -

nah i'm not saying it's 'easy' (i think it's ok - I did offer to do one), i'm just saying its an improvised solo, and seriously it'll take ages to work out and perfect, and therefore it will be VERY VERY boring. It's like recording a person randomly dancing about on stage for ages, and then getting a normal or professional dancer to practice and mimic it's exact moves - it's just pointless and not worth it!

Great idea, but I've only got a bass, and I really need to learn to play that at some point.
Some great lessons on there and you will be able to learn a lot. -
