Anyone who is wondering where I've been the past few days, the network has been down that serves my accomodation. I'm in the library at the moment doing some research into malaria (It never ends, if it's not one aspect of malaria, it's another, if it's not malaria, it's mosquitoes which carry it, it goes on).

Thought i'd say hi! :wave:

I've been writing a bit on bass recently, alas I have no adapter to plg into my PC and record it or personal internet access to upload it. It's pretty cool, I've been trying to mix in some Arabic influence which some of you may have eard of, it's sounding pretty cool but I've got to work on some variation for it or it gets a tad boring after a couple of minutes.

i start a piece of experimental research on Tuesday (New and exciting stuff that noone else has done) with (Yes you guessed it) Mosquitoes and malaria. I've got to learn to make needles and inject the mosquitoes first. I'm going for a medical on Tuesday as well to make sure I'm fit and healthy. I gotta give blood though which tends to be difficult as I have low blood pressure... that sucks.

Anyway

...there's so many around here.

Student affairs just told us that me and my room mate are going to have to move out of our townhouse in the middle of this semester :angry: Student affairs has given us nothing but s[size=2]h[/size]it all week and its really annoying me. The house isn't as messy as the claim and it's not where near as shocking to new students parents as they believe. Parents should know their kids are messy by now, GROW UP CPC!!!! :angry: :angry:

Yeah...well that and the living room area, but that isn't our stuff so we don't know what to do with it.

[QUOTE=FUNKNBASS]Im practicing speed again.[/QUOTE]


Pardon for asking, but how do you do that?



Yar.

FUNKNBASS 10-03-2004 11:23 AM

Keep playing Teen Town until Im faster, It really stretches and stregnthens your hands.

e p 10-03-2004 11:27 AM

Oh.

Well I can't play that fast at all. Would you recommend any practices or anything other than play challenging songs?




Yar.

Jamie 10-03-2004 11:30 AM

hnmmmmm, i would say.... maxwell murder? thats all i can think of that will get your hands moving.


The weirdest thing just happened. some people came to the door and asked for me, so my mum shouted up saying theres some people at the door for you, so then my mum walks away to watch tv. i go to the door and theres no one there, i check around the corner of the door and no one there, i look down the street and they hadnt ran off or anything (they arent [b]that[/b] fast! so thats weird!

FUNKNBASS 10-03-2004 11:30 AM

Just anthing that causes you to stretch your hand alot all over the fretboard, your not building true speed as you want to build stregnth.

Doorbell Ditch.

Jamie 10-03-2004 11:34 AM

like knocky knocky nine doors?

but in knocky knocky 9 doors its different, the way we used to play it was you would run along a street ringing all the bells on 9 houses then just sprinting away.

these people actually came to the door!


probably just some friends messin about... or it might have been some charvas!

So I'm not as concerned about speed as much as endurance?




Yar.

FUNKNBASS 10-03-2004 11:35 AM

Endurance is the first step to gaining speed.

Jamie 10-03-2004 11:36 AM

yeah, try learning sleep now in the fire and playing it all the way through, now that will test your strength!

(sleep now in the fire - rage against the machine)

FUNKNBASS 10-03-2004 11:38 AM

The thing is is that your trying to make the mucles in your hand move faster, but you have to have mucles there before you start to push em.

e p 10-03-2004 11:39 AM

Ok thanks guys.

I actually know some songs that are somewhat speedy and make you stetch. Very endurance testing. One of them is actually the guitar part to a song.




Yar.

Omega Red 10-03-2004 11:39 AM

the only real way to get fast is to play over and over and over, untill you can play it with out even thinking

Accentopus 10-03-2004 11:42 AM
