Hello friends,

Great news, yesterday I had a productive visit with the world renowned hand specialist Dr. Lee Osterman at the Philadelphia Hand Center. He and his talented team of physical therapist are confident that the injury to my hand will not require surgery, and that I will be back to form in 6 to 8 weeks!

I have some hard work, physical therapy, and rest ahead of me, so in the mean time I will continue to fire out these bonus resources for my most popular video lessons. Let's revisit this beginner friendly version of Eagles "Hotel California." In this tutorial, we will learn how to strum through some common variations to your open position chords. Let's get started!

Hi Rob, it's good to read that you won't need any surgery for your hand because the recovery from that, will throw you back in time. I wish you a good physical therapy and just take care of your self!!. So that you can do, in the new year, everything with the injured hand. By the way your revisited lessons are also very interesting so don't have any worry about that!! Best wishes, Ron.

Check out the attached PDF, at the time I break down a common strumming pattern you can use. Notice the letters below the beats indicating the direction of strums. Thanks so much, can't wait to come back to France!

This just started showing blocked for me as well. I tried the YouTube app on android phone, YouTube site on PC, and signed in and to access through Patreon on both. I am located in the US but can access it OK if I VPN through another country.

I'll fix this tomorrow... it's not YouTube, or my settings, it's a copyright issue. Very frustrating.

Robert a full lesson of this song would be great if you find the time., I know there are other lessons online, but with sounding patronising, I do find you very easy to follow. :-)

Hey John, that’s definitely on my list of goals! I’d surely need to break it up into a few lessons... it’s a beast of a song.
