[QUOTE=ShadowsFallen]Anyhoo, stearing the conversation to something other than guitar for once...[/QUOTE]

Been practising Universal Mind?

Yep. I missed it yesterday because I was doing something else and was tired as all ****ing hell when I remembered, but other then that I've been spending a lot of time on it. I can definitely have this down in a month.

You were just trying to keep the topic on guitar weren't you? :mad:

Errrrrrrrrrrrrr no?


Just let me give Dylan [url=http://s42.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=2HZV4JD40ML5K1X72GF4OFU676]this[/url], then I'm going to bed.

Wait! Mitch! I LOVE YOU!

:D

:wave:

Thanks. I'm gonna go work on it right now. :) :) :)

Guess whose guitar is kicking insane amounts of metal *** now that it has a brand new set of strings?

I'll give you a hint. It's mine.

That's right, it's mine. :cool: \m/

Can someone list all the songs they covered?

[QUOTE=The Cynic]Can someone list all the songs they covered?[/QUOTE]

Well, some of these aren't entirely, but they are the songs I have enjoyed the most...

Ozzy Osbourne - Goodbye to Romance (mostly the solo... the first decent solo I nailed perfectly)
Children of Bodom - Sixpounder, and Chokehold (Cocked 'n' Loaded).
Suicidal Tendencies - Cyco Vision (Inspired by Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1 hahaha... I just found out who played it a year ago and learned it in a couple minutes).
Nirvana - Smells Like Teen Spirit
Metallica - Fade to Black, One
I was asked to play "Brain Stew" by Greenday as my first song being played with a drummer. Probably the only one (other than Cyco Vision) actually covered with someone else.

[QUOTE=Drunken Viking]That sounds like your rushing a lot when you're playing it.[/QUOTE]

Yeah... my camera sucks so it doesn't give much time to record... my card for it is only a couple MB. Therefor I try to get as much in as I can.

To MrDuCran: I don't have any of the videos, but I found some on YouTube.com all you have to do is search "Alexi Laiho" and it comes up with some.

To anyone else... has that Alexi vid been leaked yet? The one with the AYDY? licks? I really want it sooo bad... if anyone has it I will deffinately trade you some albums for it if I can.

[QUOTE]Can someone list all the songs they covered?[/QUOTE]
Slayer - Silent Scream
Sepultura - Mass Hypnosis

there's two I can think of atm

Yah... I'd like that AYDY licks video alot.

I'll send a video or 3 cds to anyone who will send me it!

I just got The Black Waltz from Kalmah, btw. It's mindblowing.

I spent the last several hours jamming.

Starting figureing Towards Dead End by ear and then when it came to the lightning fast sweeps or w/e they are.... I cheated and broke out a tab. :cool:


Once I get that up to speed, I'll be styling.

I worked on the PTTR demo 2 tab that Mitch uploaded. I've got the first riff down...

I have to tune my guitar, jamming for hours on end the last 3 days..has done wonders for staying in tune..:p

Uh, Bodom covered Rebel Yell, Bed of Nails, Aces High, Somebody Put Something In My Drink, Hellion, Shot In The Dark.. And I am too lazy to type the rest, so here's the link - [url]http://www.endlesswar.net/SOB/site.php?go=qa&lang=en[/url]. It says there.

Yeah... Bodom has done a good job with their covers. A few of them, such as Rebel Yell, I actually like more than the original... Especially Oops I did it Again hahaha. I mostly learn random riffs that I like to hear or sound interesting in some way. Sinergy did a wide range of covers as well though.

Bodom's cover of Silent Scream is far better then Slayer's.

I love their covers of, Bed Of Nails, Oops I did it again, Somebody Put Something In My Drink, with Silent Scream being my fav.

All the official covers are on cobhc.com ffs.


[b]PsychoticFlubber[/b] - I've seen the GW videos on youtube but I'd rather have them saved on my pc and stuff.
And also, I've tryed printing off the scan of We're Not Gonna Fall but it just comes out blank. It's nothing to do with the printer cause it prints other things, just not that, do you know why or have a sloution?? Thanks.

hows everyone making out with that universal mind intro?

Uh... I can try to switch the format of the picture... not sure why it's not printing... could have to do with the size possibly? I'll try to figure it out and send it to you.

EDIT: I just tried to switch the format, but even after I do that it comes up as the same thing. It's not working... didn't you fill it in as a solo for Guitar Pro at one point? Why don't you print it out through that?

I did copy it in Guitar Pro yeah but I just like the way magazines are presented, which is why I get tempted to buy everything, magazines, cds, DVDs instead of downloading etc. If it won't print at all, I'll leave it because I came up with different results when I transcribed it and I copyed my version up and wrote it down instead. I can play it at 110. :)


Kurrpt, I can play the UM intro JP style perfect at 105 so far. Any quicker and I start to forget the endings and mess up.

OHSHI, Kurrpt has been perm-banned...

I'm still a little stuck at the speed I first started at. I was going to play it yesterday but I fell asleep. :( No matter, I'm going at it hardcore today.

Which speed is that?

yea, i calling it quits after today. I got it up to 115. I tend to go slower then that, for learning purposes.

I feel i actually learn to go faster, by playing slower. Those little nuances that you change can really make a big difference


hit me on AIM : kurrptsenate

Playing slow is frustrating for me. I know it's often more effective to play cleanly at a slow speed than to play sloppy at a high speed, but for some reason I can't shake the idea that I'm wasting time when I go slow.

[QUOTE=MRDuCran]Which speed is that?[/QUOTE]
85. :mad: Cut me some slack, I [I]just[/I] started. I'm shooting for a huge increase in speed today though, I don't care how many hours it takes me.

Hey, kurrpt, I don't have AIM :eek:...
Are you calling it quits with UM or the whole posting on MX thing??

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hey Ben, 85 isn't bad. It shouldn't be how fast you can play it after a day, it's how cleanly you can play it overall.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[url=http://s35.yousendit.com/d.aspx?id=3O8O58FNG9JI42U767HFJFEMXI]HERE'S[/url] a video of how you SHOULDN'T play Sixpounder lawl.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Btw, Amanda is hot.

hell no i aint calling it quits to UM. I can finally transisition without omitting that 16th note i was talking about the other day.


Im just quitting the MX thing for a while. Figure ill try to spend my time a bit more constructively. Seems like a waste of 15000 posts to me.


I just use aim express, so i never have to DL

I was gonna say, ommitting a 16th note should be avoided if it's not how he does it, glad your over it. :thumb:

I need to take a break from the internet too, I used to play guitar for up to 12 hours before, now I can sit on the computer for 12 hours and not touch my guitar. :upset: Gay.

That's good, I was thinking the same thing. It's slow but I can play it nearly perfectly at that speed. Time to speed up methinks.

Amanda is surely hot.

I've been thinking about getting out of here too. I've been spending too much time on mx and not enough on guitar lately. It makes me feel depressed.

haha. I only post on MX while im at work (away from the guitar)


I used to read books before. I guess i could do that again. I really wanna learn a sh!t load of theory actually.

what i tend to do is play through the intro 10 times. If its not 99 % pefect, i wont move up in speed.


for the longest time, i was having consistency issues. Thankfully, i have progessed past that obstacle. I think im pretty good for about 19 months of playing

I'd like to 3rd the fact that Amanda is hot.

On a CoB note, I gotta kick my *** into gear and get more progress on TDE and then learn more of that "Move" song. :thumb:
