Eh, no, it's not even one of the best on the album imo.

Untitled 09-19-2005 01:05 PM

You opinion is sucky.

Angry Balled Fists! 09-19-2005 01:06 PM

Ok.

HitHardDrums55 09-19-2005 03:48 PM

its cool but dan probably shouldnt have been the one to sing it...still say derek needs a song of his own on vocals on the next cd/ep they record

How come Dan shouldn't have sung it? He did write it after all

HitHardDrums55 09-19-2005 08:15 PM

i think matt could have made it sound better....doesnt really sound like dan's style imo, its still pretty good though i like the guitar part

poprocks&coke 09-20-2005 02:29 PM

It's one of the weaker songs on the album, as well as 'Settle For Satin'. I really don't like those songs for some reason, I skip them half way through.

Oz Rembrandt 09-20-2005 02:32 PM

My favourite Crimson* Track is Sadie

(*Don't Say you Won't inc. B-Sides)

[QUOTE=Oz Rembrant]My favourite Crimson* Track is Sadie

(*Don't Say you Won't inc. B-Sides)[/QUOTE]
I agree with that 100% pretty much, although I prefer Sadie to Don't Say You Won't.
I've always loved Sadie. Great song.

HitHardDrums55 09-20-2005 03:52 PM

Sadie is good, but it gets old after a while...to poprocks&coke, i love Settle For Satin, it's actually one of my favorites on the album. i love the snare drum part near the end

i'd say my absolute favorite on the actual album not including b-sides would probably be Back To Hell...listen to how fast Derek is with his hi-hats only using 1 hand in that song

thedeadwalk! 09-20-2005 10:26 PM

I don't care too much for the synthesized sound of Crimson, and some of the songs take some getting used to. My favorite so far is Time to Waste, but I haven't really listened to all.

Derek = LEGEND.

Seeing him play one handed while drinking his water at Leeds has to be one of the highlights of my life basically.

Untitled 09-21-2005 10:17 AM

I was playing one handed at my last gig, and i got shouted at for "showing off" :rolleyes:

And im definatly making ALk3 album covers, tee-shirts, etc etc. If someone could do us a favor and right down the set list id be happy. Im gonna do it for a live album.

Oz Rembrandt 09-21-2005 10:36 AM

Erm, the set list from Leeds?

Untitled 09-21-2005 10:38 AM

I was planing on the full length set..

I dont need it just yet though.

Oz Rembrandt 09-21-2005 01:06 PM

Well, I'll post it up after I see em (2 months!!!)

Untitled 09-21-2005 01:08 PM

2mounths!! I need them tracks now!!

Only joking, i have a few months to do the project, and thats gonna be one of the last things i add to the thing.

yeah i only play one handed when i throw a stick while im trying to get to a position where i can grab another stick, when im itchy, or when i need a drink...im tryin to get to where i can play single handed with my left hand as well...definately not ambidextrous... i would definately bitch out whoever yelled at me for "showing off" though, its great to be able to jam and show off at the same time. i think that makes a good drummer awesome. not if they screw everything up tryin to show off though...

[QUOTE=poprocks&coke]Derek = LEGEND.[/QUOTE]
AMEN! my favorite drummer for sure.

ALKALINE TRIO = LEGENDS

Untitled 09-21-2005 02:23 PM

I play bass, ha ha, bit different, i still get shouted at though.

Oz Rembrandt 09-21-2005 02:28 PM

I barely stop moving my hand when Im playing bass. If It gets quiet, i throw a slide in usually.

Firecracker 09-21-2005 02:29 PM

Do slap and pop then you'll be fine, and some rocking rhythms and runs.

Untitled 09-21-2005 02:30 PM

If im playing root 0 note, then ill take my hand off, have a drink, wave to people, you know.

Oz Rembrandt 09-21-2005 02:45 PM

I usually play a chord with the 7th fret octave if i'm playing open.

poprocks&coke 09-21-2005 02:48 PM

Shooooooooom.


Wow, look at that, it just flew right over my head.

Oz Rembrandt 09-21-2005 02:56 PM

The 7th fret of the string above is the same note as the open, but Higher

(Ie: Open Top String = E, then the 7th fret on your A string (Next one down) is also an E, but higher!)

Untitled 09-21-2005 03:06 PM

Dont be silly, its 5th fret. If you play 5th fret E, its the same as open A.

Oz Rembrandt 09-21-2005 03:16 PM

Thats a natural octave, exactly the same note. The seventh fret is something like 2 levels higher in frequency, so you can play chords with open and 7s.

HitHardDrums55 09-21-2005 04:36 PM

i thought it was 2 strings down for the same note but higher?

Untitled 09-21-2005 04:40 PM

I understand now, you can play it 2 strings down 2 frets across, or 7 frets down
