I've been playing for over 40 years. My technique is solid. My guitars are set up as well as they'll ever be.



It's just a fact that a song that's all barre chords is going to wipe my left hand out. I try to make sure I'm warmed up properly before tackling one of these songs and I have to take a break afterward. I try to space them out within a rehearsal or performance as well. Some days I know I'm just not up for a hand killer so I skip them. Thankfully we only have a few of these in our repertoire.

Ever tried different voicings? No matter how good you are with barre chords, playing a song that’s mostly barre chords is tough. Try and substitute some of the barre chords with open chords, or capo the fret where you play the lowest barre chord.
