I dont have it, but if you have guitar pro, you should be able to get it off of ulimate-guitar.com

ghettoeddo 06-06-2006 09:48 PM

eehh no luck. i dont have guitar pro, and powertabs only have the guitar parts.

guess im gonna have to write it out by ear or drop it heh.

GenuineImitation 06-06-2006 09:55 PM

Figuring out by ear could be kind of difficult.


Im pissed. I was going to review Train of Thought, but some guy beat me to it.

ghettoeddo 06-06-2006 09:56 PM

a lot of it actually doubles the guitar part. i think i can figure out the right hand pretty easily, but the left hand arpeggios and chords could be tricky. i could take the lazy man's way out and just arpeggiate what the guitar chord is for that bar :]

anywho, BACK to dream theater.
NP: universal mind-LTE <--one crazy guitar riff. CRAZY.

GenuineImitation 06-06-2006 09:58 PM

My friend may use Octavarium as a graduation song because of its "full circle" theme. He is no longer one of the oldest in HS, but now one of the youngest in college.

ghettoeddo 06-06-2006 10:01 PM

HEY i like that.
props to your friend.

it's just like...us 2 talking in here.

GenuineImitation 06-06-2006 10:03 PM

Pretty much, although that will change soon. Im going to go to bed in a few minutes.

Im the one who gave my friend the idea since he is now a DT fan bcause of me.

ghettoeddo 06-06-2006 10:06 PM

Jev 06-07-2006 04:22 AM

The Omen I think.

Guess who can play the Universal Mind riff :D

Not me :upset:

But I'm working on it.

jpshortstuff 06-07-2006 04:25 AM

which one, the one at the start? thats pretty cool.
i love the bit where they all have crazy solos, then theres a piano bit and then they go inot that funky bass riff.

Jev 06-07-2006 04:38 AM

Yeah the one at the start.
I keep hitting the B string :p

jpshortstuff 06-07-2006 04:46 AM

/checks TAB
hmm, i didnt know it was string skipping, thats quite hard. im terrible at fast string skipping.

eug008 06-07-2006 06:33 AM

Im getting close to aceing it... i think

GenuineImitation 06-07-2006 07:54 AM

I want to learn Paradigm Shift, but my fingers just dont move fast enough.

Jev 06-07-2006 09:37 AM

Same here.
I just temelo pick and cry :(

Petrucci 06-08-2006 08:52 AM

lol

Dream Theater
 
heya guys, i bought Images and Words and listened and listened to it. I love that album also because John Myung played a 4 string bass which makes the songs playable, insainly hard, but playable with a regular base guitar.

Shortly After this i bought tickets to go and watch them live in wolverhampton (anybody go btw?) and they were imense. Whilst watching them 'The Glass Prison' came on and i just stood in awe at the whole bands technical ability.

I bought there entire collection and at the minute i love 6 degrees of inner turbulence, octavarium and train of thought.

story of my life... :upset:
the onyl LTE song i can play is hourglass and that's insanely easy with the excption of a few quirky chords. oh and state of grace.
paradigm shift and biaxident would be orgasmic...

anyone have the same problem? my left hand can move as fast as petrucci (ok maybe not, but ALMOST) but it's always my right hand that can never keep up...

Lord Abortion 06-08-2006 02:27 PM

I love Hourglass, it's my favourite LTE song by far, beautiful.

Yes, my left hand is pretty fast but it's difficult for my right to pick every note even though I can tremelo pick faster than my left hand can move.

If you get what I mean.

ghettoeddo 06-08-2006 07:20 PM

yea i getcha. i think that's the same for most people because it's less movement to pick than to finger; much closer proximity for the right hand.

whoever was shooting for that universal mind riff...i wish you teh best of the luck with that string-skipping opening riff. petrucci = meanie face

Chu 06-08-2006 08:57 PM

Yeah, I have decent legato, but horrible picking, it's just my accuracy, if I had better accuracy, I wouldn't be as bad, I can play quite fast with my right hand (My left hand can go twice as fast though :cool: ) I just can't guarantee I'll hit the string every time, or I'll do some unconscious alt. pick...

That happens to me must of the time, that's why i'm working on it.

Chu 06-08-2006 09:17 PM

I just do **** loads of scale work, and a fair bit of string skipping..

I can't say I'm improving much anymore, at least compared to how much I was when I began these exercises, so I'm really looking for any sort of new exercise.

Element of LED 435 06-08-2006 09:47 PM

im rele improving on the guitar solo for metropolis ( after the crazy fast part where it mostly sounds like keyboards) its so fun to play and i can already play the part before the crazy fast part good and basically my next challenge is to learn the solo for take the time
