Need some help with practicing, musical direction


Hello everyone!

I think I have hit a slump in my guitar playing. I want to learn how to play leads better, and I want to learn how to play some blues. Most of what I play is hard rock/metal, and I want to branch out a bit and learn something new. I tend to play alot of rhythm parts in the jams I have participated in, and I would like to start to solo some. One of the guys I play with breaks into endless, repetative leads for long periods of time, which bores me to death. I can only play the same rhythym part for so long before i get bored to tears.

So, I was wondering if any of you have run into this problem, and what you did (music books, videos, lessons, whatever) you did to fix it. I have been playing guitar on and off for 18 years, and I am back into it and want to get serious about playing again, I just don't know what to do next lol.

I hope someone out there can understand that rambling ;p Thanks in advance for all help and suggestions.
