Very interesting indeed! Especially since I've been cutting into my sleep in order to practice more often, breaking my practice sessions into two a day. Lately, I practice from roughly 8:30 at night till 9:30. Then, I awake at 4:30 am, shower, practice from 5 am to 5:30 am, before heading to work.  Now, with mental practice, I can practice at work, too! Or, should I take a nap at work?

I used to cut sleep to practise and although it accelerated the techniques I was practising, it sent me mad as a box of frogs!!  :lol:

A little madness might make my guitar playing more interesting. Not as interesting as a box of frogs......(I have to say I have never heard that one before. I chuckled).....

Well you can get more practise in, you may even end up mad as a cake!

Mmmmm.....cake!

It's becoming obvious I may need to invest in a Britionary.

Just to go away from the britishims for a second... John Sloboda has done a lot of work on music and cognition, so if you are interested in such things, then check out his books. Tally ho chaps...b*gger  :D

I think you guys are starting to invent words, now. Or is that c--kney?

Sorry for hijacking the thread.
