[QUOTE=Stormrider331]Oh okay..The only time I saw then live was on cunning stunts...and they werent tuned down half a step there..well atlest I dont think.[/QUOTE]

Well i tried playing along with this dvd, i was in standard and sounded out of tune, so yeah... they did have down tuning in that concert, it was either half a step or a full step. Personally i don't care as long as they sound good :thumb:

[QUOTE=butch_man]Yeah there will be solos. Kirk said it himself.[/QUOTE]
Drowned in wah probably.

His Wah solo's are so annoying.

[QUOTE=Happy]Drowned in wah probably.[/QUOTE]

Well you have to remember a lot of his solos on albums aren't. (excluding the Black album)

[QUOTE]His Wah solo's are so annoying.[/QUOTE]

Most of them are, yea.

Still he uses it too much. I wish I could go back to RTL days where he used his first wah pedal on a song and broken it.

He still used it on those albums back in the day, as much as he does on albums now. Live, yes, he uses it too much, but not on recordings

Is anyone doing the cover competition?

yeh all the albums from the 80's have excellent solo's. 'Master of Puppets' and Sanitarium are two of my favourite by him.

Haha, it can sound pretty cool at times, but yes, ever since black album Kirk has taken it one step to far, i can't really name a song anymore that he plays live without soloing with wah.

Fade to Black is my favorite. My favorite wah solo is The Struggle Within, he uses it really well in that song.

Nope, I'd consider it if I could record myself.

[QUOTE=Joe]I beat you to it, sorry... I need to find a drummer or something[/QUOTE]
Oh well.

[QUOTE=NightHorse]Oh well.[/QUOTE]

It's ok, there will be another cover competition. They get really big, the last one probably had 20 entrants.

Happy, You've got mail.

NP: Orion

Yeh, About that, do you know any half decent recording stuff you can get for cheap, and how you actually do it?

Yay, cheers.

[QUOTE=NightHorse]Yeh, About that, do you know any half decent recording stuff you can get for cheap, and how you actually do it?[/QUOTE]

Actually yes. There's a good deal on musiciansfriend.com for a mic, stand and chord

[url]http://www.musiciansfriend.com/srs7/g=home/search/detail/base_pid/270619/[/url]
it's $20

there are some decent mixers you can get too. once you get that you need a chord that will adapt the output jacks of the mixer and fit into your computer line in jack. it'll give you good quality, not the best. try the jam session forums too, they give tons of help.

Oh Thanks, but I live in England.

[QUOTE=NightHorse]Oh Thanks, but I live in England.[/QUOTE]

They do deliver to out of the USA. I'm sure there are some companies that sell similar stuff in England

There are. Yeh, but Musicians Friend is probably the biggest in the world.
Is there a way to change the currency to UK Sterling?

so what have you guys heard about the future of metallica?

[QUOTE=muthafunkabass]so what have you guys heard about the future of metallica?[/QUOTE]
They're in the studio.

any leakage of music yet?:naughty:

Nope. Go to Metallica site/

Yea, it says they're in the studios. They [I]just[/I] got in, so I assume there's not any leakage of music, probably not even anything recorded yet.

oh. thx, guys. im just so stoked for new material, i have a faint hope that it wont be another st.anger.

Me too. I wouldn't mind a reload or a black. I think I'd actually like something totally new, but really good. Definitely solos. I'll be upset if there are no solos.

yeah solos are needed. i would love it if had that thick sound the black album has.

Well hopefully there will be solos. I just hope kirk doesn't kill them by being wah happy again. Don't get me wrong, I like to use wah in solos but it needs to have more substance.

Yay today is payday for AJ (my nickname). I've seriously need to buy a much bigger cd holder. This way I can carry all of my cds on me.

I'm gonna disguise my band's album as the new Metallica album and get huge. Now all I need to do is write an album's worth of material.
