Eyrn - I'm one of the organizers of the Acoustic Cafe that has monthly performances at the Walter Reed Community Center in Arlington County VA. I'd like to offer you a slot to play in the Fall (we're off for the summer).
The Cafe offers a quiet LISTENING environment - not a noisy bar scene. Openers get 15-20 minutes; featured acts get 50 minutes. I believe we will begin paying performers this Fall (not a lot - but a least we'll cover your gas money).
If you are interested, you can call or text me at 703-915-3680, or email me at egirovasi@gmail.com I don't find TAC very easy for communicating.
You can check us out on Facebook at:

Hey TACfam! Just posted my next three live shows in April/May in the DMV. A lot of details are forthcoming but it at least has the date, time and location. I'd love to see some of you all there! Let me know if you have any song requests!

That is great Eryn! Congrats!
-
Road trip!! Sounds like a great adventure! I think you already have a few must-stop destinations -- people to see and guitars to play!
-
Thanks Eryn, will share this Friday.

In front of the fire with a strong drink and my favorite girl, with Preston Reed’s “Valhalla” on. As soon as she goes to bed I get to jam out. Heavenly evening.

#Smallwin Saturday!
Got elected to the board of my local songwriters' association!
And I got a speeding ticket in the mail for $100
but then got good news an hour later... one of my songs that I wrote since joining TAC won Gold Level in the Music City Songstar competition, and the prize was... $100! 
TAC membership is already paying for itself.

That's awesome Eryn and very exciting. Congrats. Lol money comes and money goes i.e. You either need to slow down or keep writing songs. 😃😃 Although a lil words of wisdom is to do both.
Good job!!!

Ok, better late than never, right folks? This is so truly fun having years of randomly picked up theory knowledge all start locking into place. I dove really deep into my "Learn These" Spotify playlist, and I'm getting ready for Christmas early. I decided to learn an unfamiliar Christmas song that I hadn't looked up the chords to yet: Key: C, 3/4 time Scale: C – Dm – Em – F – G – Am – Bdim – C Verse Progression: C – Am (maybe Am7?) – Dm – G This is repeated through the end of the third stanza, and then it soars up to an Em, but not on the traditional open voicing on the second fret. So Em with the 7th fret barred, followed by the most insane chord that I had to pick out for about 5 minutes. I thought, great, a jazz chord… as near as I can figure, it’s this: Db5/B (tabbed: 5X66XX), which can be cheated easily as an A or Amaj7. At this point I’ve clearly bitten off more than I can chew. B Section Progression: Dm – G – C – Am – Dm – G – C Since this is an older song (Sinatra’s version is, anyway), song structure was a little different back then. Et voila! I'm looking forward to transposing this a couple steps down so I can sing it. Ok, coffee time. I'd appreciate any corrections or thoughts!

Am I the last one?? I bet I'm the last one. Sorry friends, I am SOOOOOO late to this guitar party. Due to bronchitis (mine and my toddler's!) I didn't even wrap my foundational five until last week but I'm here, catching up rapidly, and enjoying every minute. Key of C, methinks! I just picked a song I love that I have never played before, and it turns out it's in an easy key! Now the chords... that's a different story... and one for next week! Hope everyone is enjoying the course!
-
Ok... I'm finally back at it. A sprained ankle, a sick toddler, and battling my own bronchitis meant that the guitar stayed in it's case for the past 10 days or so. I had nothing left to give to the craft. But I think I'm on the mend. I'm coming for you, November practice plan!!

You have certainly have had a rough go lately.. so glad you are finally on the path to health again. And the baby too..

Welcome back, Eryn; I'd thought you'd been having a rough go of late, but hope you're getting back on track. Nice to see you on here!
-
I’m right there with you. I hope your bronchitis dries up fast and I wish you a complete recovery.

Congrats Eryn, sing up a storm. I posted your American Songwriter article on Linkedin, Google+ and Facebook, just to get you a little PR. Hope it helps.

Gah it feels good to be back! The kiddo is asleep for two more hours still, so I've got a date with the staggered pinch and the academy. I missed you TAC!

Good to see you again! I'm working on the Fingerstyle course too. Just moved to lesson 5 this morning which is after the staggered pinch. I'm so excited to finally be learning this, and it's coming more naturally now.
-
Hey Eryn! I like the new logo with the rose coming out of the bullet casing! Will that be the cover art for your first album?
-
Hi Eryn. Missed you. Glad to see you around the forums again. 😁
