[the_uber_penguin]

HMV where I live tell me they're getting on October 1st, and that's when they're giving me my copy.

I'm not sure if that's the official release date or not.

If it isn't until after that... :p to you all (and I'll tell you if it's not worth buying...or if it is)

I said I had a one hour lecture when we have our 4 hour rehearsal and they just just chucked me out, without even trying to sort it out. So I'm thinking about Setting up either a Power Metal band or a Death Metal band...so many options :p

One good thing that has come from this week is that I've got a huge NOTB poster for £3.50 from the SU :thumb:

We should start an Iron Maiden tribute band.

I'll volunteer as singer.

I can record digitally now, so we could do it over the internet.

Anyone want to join?

EDIT: I also have a drummer willing...guitarists/bassists?

[Deth]

I play bass, though my recording is primitive.

[rik]

[the_uber_penguin]

So the band so far is:

Drums: Chris
Bass: Creepin
Guitars: Crag, Andy

We need one more guitar.

And if we're all based in the UK, maybe we could even try to play a gig somewhere (in the midlands probably, as it's halfway between the North and the South) :)


P.S.

the midlands probably, as it's halfway between the North and the South

You still need a third guitarist. I'd do that but the only problem is that I can only record with my webcam which is crap.

[Lord Abortion]

hehe yeah I don't know what I was thinking, but I finally came around t listening to it, and its pure genius.
Indeed it is, it's basically what maiden are all about.

[Riva]

I'm still trying to decide which is cooler, POTO by Iron Maiden or Andrew Lloyd Webber...

[vashts80]

I just listened to Opeth's cover of Remember Tomorrow, and I'm sorry to say, but it's > the original. :x

Oh well. I dunno if Opeth have covered any other Maiden tunes, but who cares?

[ashman]

yes, definately Ash :thumb:

So: for the Iron Maiden (MXaiden...???) tribute band we have:

Bruce: me
Nicko: Chris
Janick:Andy
Adiran:Crag
Dave:Ash
Steve: Creepin.
Eddy: Frank

I'll start learning the Trooper, and get Chris to record drums for it while you guys argue over solos.

Meanwhile, can you all post your e-mail (so I can send parts to you) and the town you live in (to see if we live close enough to anywhere to actually attempt a gig :) )


Oh, and they postponed the DotR DVD again

It's now out October 24th in the UK.

(EDIT: What is ATSS...I looked and thought but can't work out which song it is. The closest I can get is All The Small Things, but that's by the wrong band!)

hmmm, ok, ill do my best :thumb:

[the_uber_penguin]

I'll try and get the drums recorded sometime this week. I don't think Chris has learnt the drums for the Trooper, but I have told him we ought to cover it in our other band (Suicidal Ducklings - punk rock outfit)...he vetoed it though...it's not punk enough.

[andyhainey]

i wanna know how to actually record, i was gonna do it at ma friends house, coz he knew how, but he's away this week so.....can you tell me how to do it uber?

[the_uber_penguin]

Depends what you've got. The way I'd do it would be plug a microphone into the microphone jack on your computer, then put it in front of your amp with the effects set up right. That way you can hear it the way the computer does.

As for software, use Audacity: here (http://audacity.sourceforge.net/) and this (http://www.dll-files.com/dllindex/dll-files.shtml?lame_enc) plug-in.
Once you get the drum track, open Audacity, go

Project -> Import Audio

and select the drum track from the hard drive.

Then make sure you've set up properly and press the red circle near the top and play your part. If you make a mistake you can stop it and delete the track easily. If you find going to one part difficult (i.e. the solo) record everything apart from it, then use the same method to get the solo.

When you've finished, find the solo button on each track, and select your parts with it. This is so you only send your part back, and not a mixed version of everything...it means I fiddle around with levels saving you lot the bother.

When you press the green triangle you should only hear the parts you've recorded. Then select:

File -> Export as MP3

The first time it does this it will come up with an error message. You just need to find the file in the second download (lame_enc.dll) in the box that should come up and it will work fine.

You'll then have an mp3 of your part. E-mail it back to me and I'll mix it in with the drums.

[andyhainey]

ok will do, but i can't find the drums from my hard drive

[the_uber_penguin]

ok will do, but i can't find the drums from my hard drive

I need to record them and e-mail them to you first.

[andyhainey]

ahhh, ok, dont do it tonite, do it 2morrow or something coz it 00:41 here

[andyhainey]

well, its time to "hit the hay"

i downloaded Audacity just there but the other one didnt work, is that one essencial?
anyways, t'waz nice having an extremely long chat with you uber so.......cya! :thumb:

[smart blockhead]

I hope you guys tribute band turns out well. What if there were two bands and they had a competition to see who was the most like Maiden?

[the_uber_penguin]

well, its time to "hit the hay"

i downloaded Audacity just there but the other one didnt work, is that one essencial?
anyways, t'waz nice having an extremely long chat with you uber so.......cya! :thumb:

You can also get the other one here (http://audacity.sourceforge.net/download/windows). It's called Lame MP3 Encoder.

You only need it if you want to export to mp3, which is probably most convenient, although I can also read the .ogg format.

.wav takes up too much space.

[crag]

So is Jannick :rolleyes:

what, you mean i'm gonna have to learn it properly and do the double solo thing??!?!?!?!?

'Sup Thread.

I went to work in my Maiden Japan T-shirt last night and all the Indie/Emo Revellers didn't want me to serve them (I'm a barman btw) :lol:

Crag, do what you want to the solo, I shallt be improvising with a few set licks (True Davey Style). Who's gonna do the mixing? I've got Cool Edit Pro, but I can't mix a song for all the Jack Daniels in Tennesse...

[andyhainey]

ive no idea how to mix, i think that uber gonna send me the the trooper drum beat and vocals, then i will add janicks part and save it, i shall then send it foward and the same will happen again etc:

anyways, where dew work ash?

:lol: you showed those Emo's.

i've virtually finished learning the solo with some added Crag twists to it, just a case of getting my accuracy up. As for mixing, i could try it but i don't have the slightest clue how.

I work at the Silhouette Club in HULL \m/

I don't think we could do that, since we need to change volumes of the instruments so that they compliment each other and the Bass is gonna need to be cranked up to the sky :p

What we could do is; Uber sends the Drum track to each one of us, we record using that drum track and then we send the recording (minus the drums) to the Mixer...

[andyhainey]

yes, godd idea, but who will the mixer be?

How hard is the trooper solo?

How hard is the trooper solo?
depends on how good you are

[andyhainey]

How hard is the trooper solo?


if ur good, u could learn it in a day, if not, a couple

[ashman]

How hard is the trooper solo?

H's solo is pretty straight forward and probably the easier of the two. Daves is just insane in comparison. It starts in an A-minor Pentatonic rundown and the goes up in the neck and into some crazy whammyness...

[andyhainey]

ugh, i hate attempting the whammyness at the end of hallowed

[ashman]

I bought a Guitar with a Whammy so that I could learn it, but it was a wasted £250 and I still can't do it...:upset:

I haven't actually tried learning it but it sounds fairly easy

It's only a Licensed Floyd Rose...

[andyhainey]

but i thought a floyd rose would of made it much easier

[crag]

It's only a Licensed Floyd Rose...
mines is a lisenced and i can't fault it at all. i've never understood why people say they're bad

[ashman]

It's just a bad guitar in general, it's only good for Pinchs and the fact it has a Floyd Rose...and plus I buggered up the Springs when I was changing the strings :lol:

[crag]

:lol: oh well

To the person playing bass for The Trooper: can you do the two-finger triplets the whole way through?

I used to use three fingers because I couldn't twiddle my middle and index fingers fast enough. But then I tried two fingers and found that the sound is much more accurate with what Steve plays (of course :rolleyes: ). But now my fingers get tired too easily and I can't really play the whole song that way! ARGH!

[andyhainey]

I can kinda semi nearly do it properly. But that's all I ever practice on Bass, nearly got his clicky/popping thing nailed though...

[the_uber_penguin]

I can do the mixing...I'm fairly pro with Audacity. If I'm recording the vocal last as well it would probably be easier for me to mix it at the same time.

Chris is working on the drums as we speak. He got a Duallist double bass pedal today (double bass pedal, but you only need one foot) so it's going to be interesting...we might have some crazy bass drum going on which wasn't there before.

I'll go round his house and make sure he records it on Thursday, unless he already has, so I can send it off to everyone.

Creepin_Deth, I'll need your e-mail, the bass is pretty important!

[Deth]

Bah. My computer sucks. the frank, if you want to take bass duties, feel free.

H? How is there an H in Adrian Smith and Dave Murray? I'm confused.

Adrian = Hey-ridan = H

Yeah, I wondered that for a while.

I've got a birthday coming up and I'll be getting upwards of five hundred dollars. What Iron Maiden stuff should I buy? I already have NotB and Powerslave and the self-titled are on my list. What are some of the best albums and DVDs etc to buy? Are any of the box sets worthwhile?

Your getting $500 dollars and spending it on maiden............................. your best bet would be to get the new Iron maiden album the new live one i mean and Brave new world if you dont already have it. :thumb: DONT BUY BOX SETS AND DVD'S NOT WORTH IT

DONT BUY BOX SETS AND DVD'S NOT WORTH IT


i beg to differ......

[Deth]

To be honest, I would much rather have all the albums than box sets.

Yeah, my computer sucks and can't record. Sorry.

[-The Frank]

Ed the HEad has all the cds plus a interview cd plus a real cool head box thing with flashing esyes!!!!!!

[-The Frank]

also, if you have 500 dollars you can get all the cds pluys a FEW box sets

[Deth]

There's other stuff I'm sure he wants, not just Maiden stuff.

[the_uber_penguin]

Second solo in Blood Brothers (Jannick's). The Wicker Man isn't too hard either.

Would an Iron Maiden/ Kiss -esque band sound good with female lead vocals? Just something I've been wondering... (with good female lead vocals, mind)

[andyhainey]

read the posts above you

i asked uber, and plus, he will be the one to receive the drums 1st, i just got confused, thats all :)

you wouldnt have been confused if you just read before you posted :)

well as i said above, he will be the one to receive the drums 1st, and, i just got cinfused. easy mistake

[the_uber_penguin]

so, has anyone recoreded so far? i'm probably going to do it some time this week, oh and uber, are you going to record vocals when chris sends you the drums? or when everyone else has recorded?

When everyone else has recorded...it's so much easier that way.

[crag]

ugh, im confused, you both have the same avatar

Why not? If the vocals suit the music (they don't have to be good) then go for it...

As for this Online Band thing, I'm assuming that the drums are recorded first and then the drum track is sent to everyone and then we send our tracks to the mixer...

[andyhainey]

yes :)

[crag]

yes, if you READ, you'll notice that i said all band members should have this avatar as their picture
yes, and if YOU read you'll see that i wasn't confused about WHY they were the same i was confused because i couldn't tell who was who

Yeah, I'm planning on buying other stuff too. I may check out that box set and see if I'm willing to spend however much it is on it. Whats the best DVD of their earlier stuff? I've decided I'm buying the self-titled, Killers, and Powerslave so far.

I'm sure you guys discussed it already, but did you hear about Sharon Osbourne getting the crowd to lob eggs and bottles at Iron maiden at Ozzfest? Apparently Bruce Dickenson and Sharon had an arguement, so she got the crowd to lob stuff at them. what a bitch.

[the_uber_penguin]

I knew about the egging and bottling...but the argument they had between them is news to me.

Details? After or before the bottling?

Did she challenge him to a duel? :evil:

They didn't have an argument, it was Sharon got pissed off cos Bruce was calling it MaidenFest and slagging off the Osbournes. Rightly so. So she got all vexxxed and got people to act all batty to Maiden. Her beef is specifically with Bruce.

^^^dammmmmmm, i wanted to learn it but couldnt get the right tabs....you know any good tabs for it?


NP: journeyman

[Deth]

Go get powertabs immediately, it is seriously the greatest thing ever.

powertabs.net, go to forums and the download is there somewhere. It has guitar and bass and even plays the song in MIDI so you can follow along.

[-The Frank]

^^^^ many thanks to thee

[-The Frank]

is this the right version:

http://www.powertabs.net/pta.php?page=song,19671

[Deth]

Do you have the actual program? You need that first.

Well, as you can see, there are multiple versions for each song, some has only bass or guitar or both. The ratings are usually dead on though, so go by those and look out to see if they're live or whatnot.

[-The Frank]

ok thanks man, the power tab thing just finished downloading

[Deth]

Have fun with it, it's great for tabbing out your own stuff as well.



EDIT: POST 12,000 IN THE THREAD!

thats pretty nuts, i have like maybe 100 posts in here hahahaha


btw how long have you been playing bass?
