Mendy Worch Learning Guitar By Himself #jewishmusic #podcast@mendyworch @ThankYouHashem

And I remember one day sitting at my desk in Yellowstone in Jersey, you know, on the 40th floor looking out at the, you know, the Hudson River. I remember thinking to myself, if I could only play guitar, I would conquer the world. Those were the words I thought. It was like, I could just walk in anywhere and take over and I felt so empowered by the idea of me being independently like able to like play the guitar. I went and bought a guitar and went on to YouTube and in like 20 minutes learned four or five basic chords. From there, I just kept playing and playing and playing and taught myself guitar. I'm terrible at guitar. I mean, I can get through a gig, but I'm by no means a a good guitarist and no one's hiring me for the for the guitar. It allowed me to go out there and and kind of be my own show. >> Yeah. >> So, that was like the first I remember going to Oman for the first time with the guitar and then it it it's like you're going to Quorum and you're playing the guitar. You're on the bus, you're playing the guitar there and then you're getting hired for a gigs and now you're you know, you have six months of experience, you're playing the guitar. So, that really opened up a lot for me and and my confidence that there's so many things I'm good at that I just haven't tried yet.
