I hope you stretched it and warmed up first.

Cab/speakers are important. What are they?

Of course.
Cab is a VBoutique oversized 1x12 with a 12L. I have a celestion redback I need to audition soon though.

I had this one back on the bench. My #1. My Carvin ST300C. The vol pot was shot.
The problem was Carvin uses mini pots, and they install them so close to the cavity wall it makes replacing them with a std sized pot virtually impossible. This pot replacement turned ou to be a bigger pia than anticipated

The right hand thing has been interesting, it’s improving but slowly. While I’m used to not playing for a couple weeks and needing a couple days of time to get back into shape, this feels like I went back in time a few years and it’s taking more than a couple days. Stuff I had zero problems plowing through previously are presenting challenges, my wrist is getting tired REALLY fast and I can’t seem to loosen it up the way I know it needs to be.
Curious if something happened during the last few weeks to fuck with it. There’s no pain, it doesn’t feel any different, but once I cross over 140bpm I’m hitting walls FAST and I was comfortable up to 210bpm previously. I’m not overly concerned because I can tell the progress is happening, just really weird that I’ve taken such a huge step back.

You can't appreciate the good nights without the odd shit one. Just say fuck it and the next one will be better.

That means a stellar show/gig is on the way.

Try to work on gallops (8th, 16th 16th) and reverse gallops (16th 16th, 8th). Even if you can get them too fast, it will (or should) allow you to get more agile.

Man, this playing guitar thing is such a sanctuary. It's offered me refuge
from life's shitstorming as long as I have been playing. I love it so much!
It's just a blessing to be able to be able to strap on a guitar, or sit down
with one, and get lost from the madness for a bit. Or give voice to the
madness, and exorcise ourselves from some contagious nonsense.

I’m Gojira’ing my way through it, I just keep playing “Standed”, “Vacuity” and “Silvera” over and over. There’s enough riff changes without the tempo being too brutal to work me back to good health!
