I am an average acoustic player.  I know most basic chords.  I know basic strum patterns, can do some basic finger picking, double base note country rhythems etc.  Can play and sing most any thing I try.  But I am at the point where I need to add to the basics to not sound boring and monotonous.  What should be the next step?  What would be the best playing style for a solo guitar/vocalist performance to incorporate runs, infills, and melodies.  Can't learn them all.  Would pick or finger be better.  Kind of stuck here.  thanks
