Double stops triads chord inversions and young love

The boys and I were sitting around jamming. And was showing them say how in a double stop just dropping your arm slightly will give a totally different tone perhaps softer tone than not moving your arm. And chord conversions as 3rd 5th and root compared to triads and the three different from root to first inversion to second inversion. So what I was trying to do is how you can play a jam in different positions. Get out of the box that a lot of players get in, let’s get away from those barre chords. Then a knock at the door and it is them girls. Thirteen year old girls asking the boys if they wanted to go to the park. Ok bye dad we’re off to play basketball.

We had a band in HS and what usually happened is that while we were jamming at a party, everyone in the audience is pairing up, so by the end of the gig there is no one left for the band... or more specifically, no one left for me, lol.

My friend and I started playing guitar because his dad played, had a very nice Guild 6-string with a burgundy finish, but he never really showed us much of anything and eventually his son became somewhat competitive with him: hard rock vs. folk.

Thx
