It's time. Take the challenge, and video yourself playing "The Middle!"

Here's my performance video. Feel free to play along!

Remember our big focus areas from the lesson as you're practicing & preparing:

  • 1) Don't be scared of the quick tempo! (Your right hand is just playing quarter notes)
  • 2) No need to play this as LOUD as Jimmy Eat World might have played it (You'll be able to keep the tempo up much more easily if you just relax and bring your volume down a little)
  • 3)Ā You can always simplify parts & fills as I showed you in the breakdown lesson (No pressure to get this perfect! We're all human :))
