Hello, my name is Dennis for Rotterdam, The Netherlands.

I have been listening to Black Keys for a couple of years now,
and have seen them play live 3 times, and I believe many more will follow.

Dan inspired me to start playing guitar, so special interest for Dan's guitar playing, Tips&Tricks and tabs.

Welcome, des!.. by no means am I a master of the guitar, but I'm just responding to the tips part of your opening thread. I've been really inspired, the last yr or so, by Dans guitar playing as well. And the best tip I could give, is lose the pick,and start jamming with your fingers. if you haven't already..

MR.ssippi, thanks for your tip!

Do you know any good exercise to practice playing without a pick?
(maybe supported by a website or youtube lesson or such)

Dude, in all honesty, I would get a beginner classical guitar book.. I took some classical guitar lessons back in junior college, so that got me started. Then I got into Jeff Beck, and got one of his tab books. You get into both of those, and you'll be on your way.

Good website for getting started. If you wanna learn to play like Dan, learn how to do pedaled bass lines behind the melody and develop some thumb independence.
