Thread Name: Guitar Chords the 'Friends' way
Subject: Guitar Chords the 'Friends' way
Not actually being a guitar player, I found this TV episode which was on as 'wallpaper' ROFL standard - The 'teacher' was self taught, and knows nothing about 'Real Music Theory', so just made up their own system based on an interesting method of "If you want to learn to play Guitar, then don't touch one!"

Which got me to wondering about self taught 'Folk Musicians"....

"I don't know the real names for the chords, so I made up names such as"

Bear Claw
Turkey Leg
Old Lady
Dragon
Iceberg "(G# - G#! You have been studying Real Names of chords!)"


So can you recognize the chord positions from those names?

And have you any other good names, or stories...
