Thats the right thing to do.

[QUOTE=Mister Blue Sky]When you think you have the money to spare to get it, buy it. You're not going to be sorry, it's amazing. The bonus disc is excellent, but the DVD of the Making of Grace is even better.

Anyhow, any other special editions of music worth considering?

I was thinking about the Judas Priest Box. ut I'm afraid it may contain gay-inducing objects. Like blowers. :(

I saw that set in a store...I wanted to get it, but it was too much at the time.

It came in a classic superdominatrix box though. :lol:

NP - Stream Of Passion - Passion. God, Bovio is one of the best female singers I've ever heard. Beautiful, haunting voice.

i feel pretty good about the CDs i bought with the money i got for christmas.

Iced Earth - Burnt Offerings
In Flames - Lunar Strain
Nevermore - Dead Heart, In a Dead World

there just all so catchy i get three our four songs stuck in my head at the same time.:confused:

Get mine! Get mine! Get mine!

i would either go with the [i] Ibanez[/i] or the [i]Les Paul[/i]. thats just my opinion though

Buy a PRS. If you don't like it... sell it. You'll get loads of money for it. That is.. if your parents are WILLING to buy you a PRS. :lol:

Either the LP or one of the Jacksons. The other two I wouldn't bother with.

Thanks for the insight guys. I may get either the Les paul or the soloist. I pretty much ruled out Ibanez because I own one already.

What instrument? If its guitar make sure you learn Classical guitar techinique also. It will rub off on your other styles of music and make a better musician.

If you can classical guitar well, then you can play anything. If you start to takes lessons prepare to feel like a real beginner.

[QUOTE=guitrguy]If you can classical guitar well, then you can play anything. If you start to takes lessons prepare to feel like a real beginner.[/QUOTE]

I have been taking guitar lessons for almost 5 years, but my teacher never covered any classical material. After a year or so it became "show me some Dream Theater licks" or "how do you play the riff to Fear of the Dark." All forms of theory went out the window.

I may be getting a new teacher soon(my old one is moving). I mainly want to focus on theory and classical guitar.

I might be late with this, but if you want to play a bunch of different forms of music, the LP would be the best. It does everything quite well.

Does anybody know where I can find some free amp emulation software that is Mac compatible? The ones on Garageband aren't living up to my expectations...

That's an organ piece, how could a guitar possibly do it justice?

Anyway mock exams were ok today. English I did acceptably and in German and Bioligy I managed to answer everything. Tomorrow I have maths, history and German. German will be pretty easy but history and maths will be pretty difficult I think :/ It's too late for more revision now though.

NP: Bach - Toccata and Fugue in d minor

What is the purpose of a mock exam?

[QUOTE=GenuineImitation]What is the purpose of a mock exam?[/QUOTE]
It's just so that you get to practise the exam and see what it's like etc. Also it gives you a good idea of what you need to revise most; for me it seems there are big gaps in my maths and history :/

NP: Ozric Tentacles - Chewier

That's the first time I've seen you with a NP: that isn't some classical song. Damn good band and song, too. :)

That's nothing against classical, of course, just a personal milestone.

Sup thread?

What you need is a PODXT, so that you can run it direct into Garageband and use it all together. You'll have more options than you'll ever need, and you can make great-sounding recordings. That's what I do on everything.

It can't be much more expensive to purchase that than amp simulation software for Macs that'll actually be good. Plug your POD direct into your Mac's line-in and you'll be golden.

EDIT: If you mix it right, the programmed drums can sound really great. I want to get the expansion packs with more drum kits and stuff, and in particular the one with the orchestra instruments.

I'll look into one of those, but right now I'm looking for something a bit cheaper...:p

Well, the Apple store I go to almost never has anything like that at all. Their top-of-the-line recording program, Logic Pro 7, has something better, but that's like 600 dollars. The POD Version 2.0 (which is what I have) should be relatively inexpensive by this point, and it literally can't be much more expensive than what little amp simulation software you could even find for the Mac, and probably a lot better too. Apple.com will have anything and everything they could make for such a purpose, though, so you should check that out.

This is one of the few curses of owning Macs, I'm afraid. :(

Very true...

I found this demo one, but supposedly you can't export the things to use with other programs in the demo. :mad:

Damn, I thought the PODXTs were cheaper...300 bucks. :eek:

Meh, better start saving then.
