Hey David, 

Just finished watching the instruction videos for this lesson, and downloaded the mp3s. 

I really don't understand what should I be doing there.. 

I mean I get the theory, where to use fills, where to play soft, horn like etc. 

But not really sure what to play. 

Am I missing something ? 

 

Thank you

Hello Mr.Nobody. This lesson is just to open your awarenesses of the different things happening when listening to accompaniment. Move on to Study 2, this is where you'll dig in and start playing examples.
