Totally agree with that! I once tried to play “Boot Scootin’ Boogie” on acoustic, and it just felt flat. It’s all about energy in those songs.
That sounds like a funny experience, Justin! But have you considered trying to create a unique arrangement? Sometimes it works out well even when a song is originally high-energy!
For sure! I’ve played “Sweet Home Alabama” as a ballad, and it brought a whole new vibe to the song. It’s worth experimenting with!

I love that idea! Playing with arrangement really gets the creative juices flowing. Anyone else tried turning fast songs into slow ballads? What was your experience?
