General Music Chat

I have never sat down to learn a song ever.

Maybe you should. Maybe you'd learn something. Just saying...

I just play, that’s it,

If you call what you do "playing", so be it. Sounds more like wanking to me.

Colors where is your video??

Not high on my priority list. I'll get to it when I get to it. Prefer to write my own music and perform shows, and that's what I've been doing. How many shows you play lately?

I listened to your solo track, and you really have to learn another instrument, because the guitar is not your instrument.

Good dig, but dude... pointless. It was a constructed solo for another artist. I just played it.

If you think I'm a bad player, maybe you need to re-evaluate your own idea of what a guitar player should be doing.

I play SHOWS dude. Cover bands, original bands, all of it. I write my own music. I'm out there DOING it. My sh*t is in time, on key and with feeling. And what I am playing serves a purpose: the SONG. I'm not out there wanking and jizzing all over my band mates trying to make myself look like the center of attention. I'm just doing what the song calls for.

You should try it sometime. But I'm guessing the reason you're not even in a band is because your ego is SO F*CKING BIG that you can't work with anyone but yourself.

Get in a band and play some shows dude. Then you'll impress me.

Now you're getting touchy . I think it was Colors that put up ONE LAST GLANCE. One great piece of music. When you put up real music like that,,from the heart,,, everyone will have respect for you, we know you can play ,but put up the REAL

That kid has it all in that genre. Of course it helps for me that he's playing the ONLY beedle-de beedle-de beedle-de beedle-de beedle-de beedle-de beedle-de beedle-de. Song I've ever liked. And I do love that one! Sorry for the hijack Sean. I just listened to the track you posted in this thread. Then I listened to your version of surfing with the alien. Then I saw that kids.

You don't have to reach up like that for the harmonics over the pickups. You can do it with your pick hand if you practice at it.
Unless you want to be flashy.

But man, I dreamed of being able to play that song at 17.

Colors, I thing we would get along if we ever met in person.

Under it all, you seem pretty cool!

By the way Colors, I am Gonghead,remember?Thanx for the credit on your page. I just wish someone like Sean would realize what it takes to play and create a great piece of music like "ONE LAST GLANCE"

PS. Your politics suck but your playing is great! Keep up the good work and I hope your move brings you the success you are searching for. GJ.

Thanks Glen

And the politics - bah, who cares? Music is more important

My reaction to the video in the original post...

***YAWN****

Seriously? This stuff was boring two days after the first Van Halen record was released.

This one is better, if for no other reason than that the guitar is actually in time with the bassline. Okay, there's a whole lot of other reasons, but timekeeping lept out at me as the most egregious failure in the first video.

Sean, you are another one..

No soul..nothing whatsoever..you sound like a robot and everyone is bored.

Don't you ever get sick of patting yourself on the back?
