Maybe Tuesday then, because they will have a departure center nearer to you, say 20-90 minutes.

Jody LeCompte 10-27-2006 08:59 PM

Ugh, these are the wrong cigarettes.

Andrew :(

That makes me happy. Not that I'll have a whole lot of time to play on it, since I've got a half dozen papers to write by the end of November.

Jody LeCompte 10-27-2006 09:09 PM

This Primus DVD is so great. It makes the cigarette problem ok...

BenJammin 10-27-2006 09:10 PM

Anyway, I think I'm out to go do something maybe productive on this cold and lonely Friday night. :wave:

I just got back from the football game about 30 minutes ago.

Some reason these two album covers remind me of each other

Brilliant stuff.

I'm trying to get into playing more electric stuff on guitar. Well, metal in particular. I can't really get into it.

Jody LeCompte 10-27-2006 09:27 PM

If you want to get into electric stuff on guitar go check out Buddy Guy and Chet Atkins <_<

Az_Holl 10-27-2006 09:27 PM

Just play whatever you want and put distortion on it, its pretty much the same thing.

Jody LeCompte 10-27-2006 09:30 PM

Since...electric = distortion?

Nah, it's for a band I'm playing in. They didn't appreciate my Blind Willie McTell today at practice so I'm not sure blues would help, and Chet Atkins isn't enough like Metallica.

Jody LeCompte 10-27-2006 09:32 PM

And I'm sure learning blues and bluegrass would NEVER help you play metal?

[QUOTE=Jody LeCompte;13522696]And I'm sure learning blues and bluegrass would NEVER help you play metal?[/QUOTE]

I can hardly play with a pick as is. Bluegrass isn't on the top of the list.

Az_Holl 10-27-2006 09:33 PM

Yeah seeing as thogh metal came from blues and all.

Watch the absolute last thing this guy does in the vid. Its so cool.

Jody LeCompte 10-27-2006 09:35 PM

I completely forgot Black Sabbath being so bluesy, I was actually reffering to the fingerings in bluegrass/finger-picked country and blues being harder than metal

I showed them John Fahey today. The other guitarist said he could do all of that fingerpicking. He just didn't want to.

Jody LeCompte 10-27-2006 09:38 PM

Finger-picking is obscenely difficult...

User Name 10-27-2006 09:40 PM

I'm proud of my finger-picking abilities but I can't do teh sweepz!

That cool. Another sweet thing to do is to slam your palm on the neck of your bass at the highest frets then slide down. It sounds good, but on stage is just plain looks awesome.

I'm still just amazed by that as the first time I saw you post that in a casual... I bow to Doyle Dykes.
