i wish crazy shi* happened to me

[QUOTE=MalcolmYoungRock]Could someone fill me in on what's been going on...??

Yeah, I've also got 30 bucks.

Suggestions?

I know, I'm horrible with money :upset:[/QUOTE]

Buy some weed. :thumb:

[QUOTE=Disconnection Notice]That's pretty cool.

"All Along The Watchtower" (Hendrix or Dylan, depending on the skill of those involved)
"The Times They Are A-Changin'", "Masters of War", "Blowin' in the Wind", "With God on Our Side", "Hurricane" (Dylan)
"Gimme Shelter" (the Stones)
"Machine Gun" (Hendrix...but it depends on the guitarist you can find)
"Vietnam" (Jimmy Cliff)
"War Pigs", "Children of the Grave" (Sabbath)

All come to mind.[/QUOTE]

that's some good ones, i'm open to any suggestions providing they are protest type songs. i am definitely doing Masters of War, by Dylan, probably a Joni Mitchell song or or two, War Pigs is a good idea, Vietnam definitely (that's what made me think of the whole idea)

all along the watchtower, i have some friends who could definitely play the hendrix version...i could try learning but im not a huge fan of electric, same with Machine Gun.

so anyone else who has other songs in mind is welcome to shout 'em out!

edit- oh da[COLOR=White]m[/COLOR]n im definitely doing fortunate son! :thumb:

Fortunate Son and Ohio.

Unknown Soldier

[QUOTE=Schyma000]Buy some weed. :thumb:[/QUOTE]

haha. i can't believe that's the only suggestion you had.

usually when money comes along my way i like to spend it on books, cds/records, weed :upset:, and going to movies. even though it usually ends up buying gas for my car.

i wanna do this peace concert without making it sound like an "anti-american" concert. like obviously the US is a major contributer to the violence that's going on, but im more against Bush than the US in general. and definitely not Star Spangled Banner, I'm Canadian.

Actually last year this guy at my school played O Canada for a talent show, and he dressed like Hendrix, played a left handed strat turned around, played behind his back and all that jazz. he made it sound totally like hendrix with lots of distortion, wah and adding lots of great fills. no one really understood it but me though.

Would you be able to do [I]Mama, I Dont Wanna Be A Soldier[/I]?

[QUOTE=Woodstock]Would you be able to do [I]Mama, I Dont Wanna Be A Soldier[/I]?[/QUOTE]

i've never heard it :amaze: ... who's it by?

"Where have all the Flowers gone" Who sung that anyway?

John Lennon, it's off of Imagine.

And it's [I]I Dont Wanna Be A Soldier Mama[/I], I got it mixed up.

Hendrix would never sink that low.

oh ok. i suppose lennon would be a good guy to look towards for peace songs.

give peace a chance would be a fun one to do.

[QUOTE=Badmoon]Hendrix would never sink that low.[/QUOTE]

what the h[COLOR=White]e[/COLOR]ll is that supposed to mean?

it better not be a cheap shot at canada...

you don't see american teenagers having to put on concerts for charity because canada is killing harmless people.

i was just kidding by the way about the america thing... if you guys can think of anymore protest songs i will be very grateful, i dont really have enough to make a big concert out of at this point.

but i must be going. im going to venture drinking again for the first time since in a few months...i hope it goes well. Have fun you guys!!! and pray i do too.

Well, not as much as a cheap shot as truth.

So Much Trouble In The World, War-Bob Marley
I'm The Slime-Frank Zappa
Chicago-Graham Nash

Any of those float your boat?

You seem to have replaced "considerate and caring for more than just theirselves" with "emo".

Explain.

It was my birthday yesterday and I got two new records and a DVD.

Cosmos Factory- CCR
Greatest hits- Bob Dylan

The whitlams DVD <--Its an Australian band, not classic rock

they are probably abandond for a reason, namely they are illegal copies or even funnier, full of drugs, not cds.........

still sounds great :thumb:

[QUOTE=Creedence Clearwater]maybe you underestimated thickasabrick?[/QUOTE]

Or overestimated a certain RocknotRoll :angry: .

I'm kinding anyway :)

Do any of you have tips for cleaning acoustic guitar strings?

- Need a rag

- Need water

Hehe, he didn't get the joke. He got mad and so did I. It wasn;t very joke like.

And the only reason why Hendrix never came to Canada is because 30000 tickets sold in Canada is like 30000 tickets in the USA exept the Canadian dollar is worth less.

And it's cold :cold:

so hendrix never went to canada?

/adds fact to classic rock knowledge scrap book

[QUOTE=Woodstock]Do any of you have tips for cleaning acoustic guitar strings?[/QUOTE]

depending on there composition, you could boil them. ie. if they are not coated in anything.

[QUOTE=Creedence Clearwater]depending on there composition, you could boil them. ie. if they are not coated in anything.[/QUOTE]
No, I just mean a fast easy clean that'll take 5 minutes.

[QUOTE]And the only reason why Hendrix never came to Canada is because 30000 tickets sold in Canada is like 30000 tickets in the USA exept the Canadian dollar is worth less.[/QUOTE]

It wasn't about that. It was that the chances of Hendrix playing the Canadian anthem is very very slim.

This is true, Canada wasn't in a war so there was no need to protest againsted us!

/uncalled for

[QUOTE=Woodstock]Do any of you have tips for cleaning acoustic guitar strings?[/QUOTE]
You can get string cleaner, just put it on a rag and wipe the strings.

/wish people saw the post about my birthday.........

Meh, forget it, the rag is my friend.

I listened to some Velvet Underground and Nico tonight. Some of it was good like Venus In Furs.

Jimi wasn't protesting against the war, he was supporting it.

That is if I read your post correctly.

[QUOTE=Creedence Clearwater]/wish people saw the post about my birthday.........[/QUOTE]
Happy Birthday :thumb:

I'd send you some songs, but evn after Badmoon gave me very detailed instructions I still couldn't figure it out :(

Really? Jimi doesn't seem to be the type to support a war.
