Ugh.

Thanks for the unpleasant memories, Alex :-\[/QUOTE]

It's really not a bad song. It just got really over-played in its time.

Refl. That's one of the better lines in that movie.

I remember the bowling ball guy, too.

As I said, my favorite from the try-out scene is still The Waffler.

"State your name and superpower."

"I... am The Waffler. And with my Griddle of Justice, I [i]bash[/i] the enemy in the head, or I burn them like so." (places griddle to his own face) "Yeearrr!"

That was Janine Garofalo actually. And I probably misspelled that, because I always do.

I just got done watching Clerks, what an awesome movie. It was hilarious, and the way that it was made was great. I love Kevin Smith he is one of my favorite directors.

Has anyone seen Fantastic 4 yet? If so how did you like it, I am thinking about going to see it some time soon.

Great name change, R.Blythe. :)

No one will trust your motives now though. Hehe.

Nope. I think my family wants to go see it though; personally I don't care. I'm just psyched about seeing Charlie and the Chocolate Factory on the 15th.

That was a chick, Jom. Jaenene Garofolo (or however it's spelled)

I was just thinking about watching Clerks tonight.

I saw Fantastic 4, it was amazingly mediocre. It did a lot to look impressive, but ultimately accomplished very little. They definitely need a sequel for this movie to have served any real purpose. And the acting for the most part was subpar. They made up for Jessica Alba's nearly complete lack of dialogue ability by putting her either in a tight spandex suit or having her strip off her clothes in order to turn completely invisible. Which, I'll admit, did bump the movie up a few notches.

One good movie that will come out this summer: The 40-Year-Old Virgin, starring Steve Carrell and Paul "Brian Fantana" Rudd. Steve Carrell makes it worth seeing.

Good gawd, how 'bout Pudge?

To be honest, I'm getting sick of the superhero movies. It's becoming a trend; every superhero is having a movie made out of them. I swear I'm going to see a Rocket Robinhood movie soon.

I may go see fantasic four. That is if my friends decide to go see it.

Yea, because Marvel is doing their movie-making thing right now. Honestly, their only great production was X-Men 2. Spiderman 1 and 2 are decent and good respectively, and the other one are usually crap. Daredevil, The Hulk, Punisher, Electra, and pretty much Fantastic 4 were garbage.

The first two Blade movies were very good, but they finished their run before the Marvel films really starting rolling out every couple months. But they got greedy with the third one anyway.

Yeah I quite liked X men and Spiderman, which are the only ones I've seen. I've heard bad things especially about The Hulk. I thought Daredevil looked like it was worthy of the trash bin as well.

Haha, good point.

Well, a lot of people got name changes who I feel had good names, and didn't need them at all. I feel my name was horrid, and I was long overdue for a change.

I'm off, tired. Whose Line is still on. See you all tomorrow probably. Night. :wave:

My new thread is up complete with article. :D Heavy metal fans and classical fans who are interested should check it out: in the next few weeks it'll become even more interesting to read. RCA, Steerpike, anybody else? Care to check it out?

Thank you. :) Keep in mind it's only the first part. More will come in the following weeks and they'll likely be more interesting because they actually talk about heavy metal instead of setting up the background for the essay's premise.

Yeah, I have always hates Stuart Scott ever since he was like "Stop, at the hot spot, set up for the wide open shot" sung to the tune of Ruff Ryders Anthem by DMX. And the whole Boo-Ya thing is lame, so is the lazy eye.

And he just hosts all the corny game shows like Teammates, Dream Job, and Stump the Schwab.

Late, but I'm pretty sure Dane Cook played "The Waffler" in Mystery Men.

Well, practice today was fun. 7 hours straight of Blues based classic rock jams:cool:.

I found out, I'm quite decent at drums if you give me a while with them. We played a song where me (rythmn guitarist) got on drums, the lead got on rythmn, my drummer played lead, and some kid we invited over to jam with us played bass.

And it sounded pretty da[b][i][/b][/i]mn good.

We played Knockin' on Heaven's Door.

Hey, Cain, I found a tab for Midnight by Satch and I have a question:

How the hell do I play that? I look at it and feel like such a noob.

Use all tapping.

Your right hand or what ever hand you use for fretting has to hit the strings like a real hard hammer on to make it work.

Also helps if you pickups are high output to make the sound come in louder.

You mean like two-hand tapping? Ah crap. I suck enough at regular tapping as it is...

Can someone give me some easy tapping songs? I'm a tapping n00b. :-/

The only other song I have the tab for with tapping is Strange Wings by Savatage, and that's one bar with a 16th note triplets arpeggio.

Intro to "One" by Metallica. Very easy.

[QUOTE=Dr. Jake Destructo]Can someone give me some easy tapping songs? I'm a tapping n00b. :-/[/QUOTE]
The tapping part in Eruption is how I learned to tap. it's honestly not very hard.

What's the difference between tapping and two hand tapping?

Ok, I'll look for powertabs of both One and Eruption, since I am familiar with them.

Alex- Is it a powertab?

[QUOTE=RiceMonster]The tapping part in Eruption is how I learned to tap. it's honestly not very hard.[/QUOTE]

I agree, I forgot to mention that.


Tapping is usually just using the fret hand fingers, and only one finger on the hand. I think two hand tapping goes into the "multiple fingers on both hands/multiple string" area.

It's a GuitarPro tab. No one ever really explained to me what the difference between a regular tab and a powertab was, and I just stopped caring after a while.

By the way, I'm open to suggestions other than Metallica, because I really have no urge to learn anything from their catalog.

Tapping is unbelieveably easy. I can't see how anyone could find it hard.

The very end to the tapping in Eruption is a little tricky, because Eddie starts switching fingers pretty fast then stops.

powertab is to guitar pro as windows is to mac I think...Except without the inferiority. :p

I play right-handed, but am 90% left-handed. To give you an idea of what that means, I cannot make my third and fourth fingers of my right hand move independently without a supreme effort of will.

Seriously, how the hell did you guys come up with neoli so fast? It took me awhile to think of a "famous" MXer back in the day, and after two hints, you guys nailed it? Riva and I had no clue how to side-step that :(

I seriously thought the joke would carry on for at least another day. Oh well.

Adios and good night.

[QUOTE=Steerpike]You mean like two-hand tapping? Ah crap. I suck enough at regular tapping as it is...[/QUOTE]


In all reality, it is easier then it looks.

The hardest thing about the song is making it all come together in the right time and tempo and such.

Try the intro out really slow, one finger at a time and see how easy it is in all reality.

Try this :

I label fingers as 1 2 3 4 : 1 - index 2 - middle 3 - ring 4 pinky

Take finger number one on the fretting hand an do a hard hammer on on the 7th fret on the E string, then take your third finger and do a hard hammer on the 9th fret on the A string.

Then your picking hand use finger number two to tap the first note on the 12th fret on the B string then use your number one finger to tap the other note on the 12th fret on the D string.

Then for the next bar for your fretting hand, use finger number 1 for the 10th fret on A string, and your second finger for the D string hammer-on on the 11th fret.
Then use finger number two and number one in the same way as you did on the 14th fret.

Take it slow, and you will see it is easier then it looks.
