I wouldn't teach you C++ though, probably Visual basic so you could write applications for Windows (Assuming you use Windows? A Metallica/Linux/Unix geek would rock :o)[/QUOTE]
I would love to learn but have no idea what you are on about. I will add you on MSN

Sure thing.

I'm American. I play Starcraft, Red Faction, and whatever console games come in the mail with Gamefly.

If I do anything it's going to be a website. I don't want to get back into VB or Java. It wasn't too exciting. Web design is, however.

Starcraft is a sick game, hell yeah :)
You play Diablo II?

I used to, my account expired and I lost all my stuff. I haven't been inspired to play since. That game got boring after awhile anyways, I couldn't play it for very long period of time.

Yeah, truth, I just go through stages.
At the moment I'm playing Natural Selection and occaisonally go on Diablo II.

Yup. :thumb:

Im trying to learn flash and illustrator at the moment. Photoshop has its limits. :p

i'm learning flash at school only, because I don't have flash here at my house. I have Swish here. :/

I have a copy of flash :p

NP: Creeping Death - Live

ride the lightning-original metallica is the best((only because that's the only one i listen to from the old metallica))

[QUOTE=Chu]You should get back into it! :)
I'm kinda the same, I let guitar get the better of me, but recently I've been getting back into programming (And neglecting my guitar to be honest, I broke the high e string a while ago and haven't been bothered getting a replacement) for a job, so it's kinda rewarding.

Are you Australian by the way? And what games do you play?[/QUOTE]
that happend to me awhile back, didnt get the high E for about 3 months. it sucked at first going to pick it and nothing is there. but you get used to it. then when you do get it back its like heaven.

Why not Kill 'em All?

Let's see how many times people say "How is Kirk Hammet beating [insert guitarist here]! Stupid fanboys!" in the new guitar poll.

Meh, Hetfield lost by a ton, I'm pretty sure Hammet will do the same.

It's still bound to happen.

everyone loves to hate on metallica fans

I dont care as much for hammett as I do for hetfield. He is an exellent musician. Does lots of work in metallica. Like I said if he and jimmy page switched spots, hetfield would have gotten 70 votes and page 20. It's just lots of people here are classic rock fanatics. lol. At least most of the time it seems like that. It's pretty weird though like one poll hetfield gets 50 votes and next poll 20. I mean surely not all those 30 people had guitarists in second poll they liked over hetfield. Cause there were many good guitarists in the first poll as well. Ahh, politics. Complicated. :thumb:

And they all probably listened to metallica long time ago.

hetfield does everything.hes a good rythim guitarist,a good drummer,bassist and songwriter and singer.

Drummer? Never knew he plays drums. I guess we learn something new everyday. :) But yea, hetfield does bunch of stuff in metallica. He does like 60% of work and kirk/lars do like 20% each. I guess that's how it is.

I dont think James has ever written a bass or guitar part in Metallica

You can see him playing drums with Lars on the San Diego DVD.

[QUOTE=DisposableHeroes]I dont think James has ever written a bass or guitar part in Metallica[/QUOTE]
I think pretty much all the rhythm guitar parts have been written by James. And he recorded the bass on Hit The Lights.

Bugger, i meant to say drums rather than guitar. He only played bass on an early demo version, which i'm sure was nothing special, if you can play guitar you can play bass.

Lars' best drumming is on Dyers Eve, hands down.

You know he didnt play it all the way through when recording, right?

/shrugs

I think that Lars' drumming isn't that mysterious or wonderful etc. I think he's just an average drummer with the ability to make normal beats sound good. He's a lot better song writer than he's a drummer, if you ask me. But still I like his attitude.

Lars does the job competenly, but IMO a better drummer could've made their songs much more interesting.

On some songs on RTL, the drumming is just weird. It almost seems off-time.

Yeah, true that. I've also noticed that in a lot of the demos and other stuff before Kill 'Em All. He seemingly can't keep a beat at all at times, which funnily enough Ron McGovney said.
