[QUOTE=Apocalyptic Raids]The Conjuring by Megadeth has that cool tapping intro.

Hell Bent For Leather by Judas Priest is really good if you're just learning tapping.[/QUOTE]
meh the conjuring is more slow texturing-type tapping than solo tapping. try the obvious - One by metallica

Hot For Teacher :cool:

Yeah... I'm not after Lead tapping really.. I have no intention of learning lead guitar.. Yet (Although I have fallen into the world of sweeping :(), I just want to be able to do everything a rhythm guitarist should be able to do, well... (And imo, that does include some tapping).

Edit: Well, I haven't really found any song that matches what I wanted, but Apocalyptic Raids mentioned Hell Bent For Leather by Judas, and I have been looking at this song, and believe I have tapping down, so I just made a simple rhythm with some tapping, works out well.. Thanks guys :D

You can do sweeping with rhythm. Just learn a few basic sweeping shape via Mark Tremonti on youtube.com

I've got the Metallica discography and am trying to figure out what's an easier Metallica song to cover, I'm still a beginner guitarist.

The first Metallica song I learned was The Call of Ktulu's rhythm section. Helps you learn how to move your fingers around a little.

I can sweep pretty well, I can play the Leper Messiah solo, either sweep or alt. pick, pretty close to speed, it's just tapping that I want to learn, I know no theory, so I think Lead guitar for me is a fair bit away. I'd much rather learn to be a solid rhythm guitarist anyway (Although, ideally I would like to be a Lead guitarist eventually)...

The little pattern I made is like:

E: 0--0-0-0--0-0-17t-10t13t17t-10t13t---... If you can understand this, I know I can't :p

Works pretty well I think.. But then again, I don't know much about guitar except for what I like :p

Can't get much easier then For Whom The Bell Tolls!
And while I consider The Call of The Ktulu a must learn song (The string skipping it teaches is invaluable), I think for basic skipping, you should learn Seek & Destroy (Intro at least, although the whole song is great to play :thumb: ) first, and then when you can do that perfectly 10 times in a row, try The Call of The Ktulu..

Also, are there any other guitarists here who want to do a Metallica-medley collaboration, thing?

I'd consider it. I'm good at pretty much any Metallica rhythm.

yeah Chu I'd help. I never got around to learning any of the written solos, but the rhythms for MOST songs would be fine.

[QUOTE=timmySmi]Creeping Death lost its flavor the moment Jason left he owned that song just for the simple fact he's DIE! DIE! DIE! raised the hairs on the back of my neck.[/QUOTE]



123... :upset: I agree wholeheartedly. Everytime I listen to Creeping Death, when it gets to the DIE! DIE! DIE! part, I just wanna turn it off.


/wishes for Metallica live at Moscow Creeping Death '93


amirite?

Rob and Kirk's pus[size=2]s[/size]y voices own that song.

[QUOTE=Happy]Rob and Kirk's pus[size=2]s[/size]y voices own that song.[/QUOTE]


Yer. XD


I wish Jason would come back. :upset:

I don't, I prefer Rob much more. Apart from the vocals of course.

[QUOTE=Happy]I don't, I prefer Rob much more. Apart from the vocals of course.[/QUOTE]


Yeah.


Ill just have to see what the next album is like.


Jasons vocals were really good though. He backed James up really well. Rob and Kirk.. meh.. Id keep Kirk because he pwnzorzz at Lead, and Rob plays their stuff really well, but writing wise Im not sure. Ill just wait it out. :)

I think everyone agrees that they should kick Lars out.
Kirk's getting sloppier but who can replace him?
It's good to hear them back on track though (the live Creeping Death clip)

Speaking of those clips, could someone please re-upload them for me? :) Please? I was grounded when they were posted. :upset:

Ah, I think Lars should stay.

Like I said in earlier posts, Lars is Metallica.

Paul Bostaph should replace Lars. He doesn't have an opinion on anything...all he does is play drums and shuts up!

Haha awesome.

Tonight's the rock n roll hall of fame thing on VH1. F[I]u[/I]ck yeah! :smoke:

^What time is it on?

THAT!


That video gives me the fukkin chills. The DIE! DIE! DIE! Part is... creamtastical. :D


You cant say Lars isnt God on that video... Ive watched it 3 times in a row.

[QUOTE=SimonCore]^What time is it on?[/QUOTE]



8 for me.

Well, thats what it says on My Yahoo.

VH1

I think you thought wrong.:angry: that is bullsh*t. Lars is the founder, major writer, and heart of the band. :mad: no way is he to be kicked out, and not even james has the power to do that, and whoever thinks kirk should go is a total idiot. he ROCKS and is in no way getting sloppy. i don't understand why you would think he is.:confused:

Kirk is sloppy live. He messes up a lot live.

[QUOTE=Happy]Kirk is sloppy live. He messes up a lot live.[/QUOTE]


That, he does. Its fine though, hes still good. :)

So have you all heard about Jason?

No, what's happened?

This site looks like it really sucks...but you'll gather some info from it

[url]http://hollywood.outsidethebeltway.com/2006/03/tommy-lee-jason-newsted-and-gilby-clarke-go-supernova/[/url]


LoL And I thought Lars had a ego

[url]http://www.jasonizer.com/home.html[/url]

well then again I guess it's not that big of a deal...it's just a fan site

Oh that, that kinda doesn't interest me.

I don't think Jasonizer's egotistic (that a word?), it's built by fans.

[QUOTE=SDMF]That, he does. Its fine though, hes still good. :)[/QUOTE]
my point exactly, to say that he should leave the band is the words of a fool.

Metallica again tonight. I'm trying to find out if it'll be on the radio

[QUOTE=ever eeking always rupert]Metallica again tonight. I'm trying to find out if it'll be on the radio[/QUOTE]


Hey you!


You mind sending me that Creeping Death?


:D

[QUOTE=SimonCore]^What time is it on?[/QUOTE]

For me, central time zone, it'll be at 8 p.m. and again at 10 p.m. I got class today, but I'll be home by 10 no doubt. I just hope VH1 are gonna show the whole thing, and not chopped in 10 pieces and take metallica's performance out. :(

^

Thanks for posting that. I almost forgot. I better go take a shower because I only have 30 minutes.

Oh man, thanks for reminding me before I would miss it.

Hmm that'd be 6PM here, and as of right now, The Blues Brothers is on. So I'm guess it's showing 8 and 10 PM for all timezones.

OMG James's vocals on those covers were hot!

Geezer dedicated that award to Cliff Burton and Dimebag. Helluva guy. :thumb:

I didn't watch their performance yet, but I will now. Skynyrd is coming on later too. Damn nice.

What about that James' 9 year old kid speech. lol

Is there someplace I can find this?
