[quote name='TimR' timestamp='1456505404' post='2989823'] The original was written and performed by Waters. There are plenty of songs I play E on the seventh fret as that's the direction that the melody is leading. When you play legato notes under a melody, your note choice is very important. [/quote] [quote name='Lord Sausage' timestamp='1456687245' post='2991458'] Why? Why is it very important when legato and not staccato? And why when under a melody as opposed to not? [/quote] I still want to know the answer to this!

[quote name='TimR' timestamp='1456736813' post='2991745'] It's just during the chorus. 1:38 on here. [media]http://youtu.be/vi7cuAjArRs[/media] [/quote]Personally, I don't think that it is interesting enough musically for it to make a difference!

just seen this. balls! maybe next time!

[quote name='TimR' timestamp='1456678020' post='2991294'] It's the last note of the verse. Everything lifts into the chorus. Except the bass. Just because you can play a note doesn't mean you should. [/quote] Yeah, but also just cos everything else lifts doesn't mean you should. Contrary motion, counterpoint etc all valid musical devices. I'm not saying you're wrong as i've never listened to the song you are on about. But musically i like things moving in different directions.

Update, instead of EHX he's put in second hand JJ's. Anyone know what this means. again, we ain't questioning this guys motives just wondering whats going on for knowledge purposes

headline! Bubinga5 in a posting a video that's not usually to his taste and most people criticising it Shocker!

We used to play Govinda in a covers band. Loved playing it but didn't really go down that well. Probably because everyone is racist up north!

[quote name='bobbytodd' timestamp='1412502791' post='2569324'] don't know if you can class it as a mistake but iron maidens dave murry never seems to play the same solo twice.and kirk hammet is a whole bag of bum notes [/quote]Even on record!

No such thing!

[quote name='ahpook' timestamp='1455307758' post='2978136'] Isn't Bolton famous for making bass necks ? [/quote] No, it's famous for being a palindrome of Ipswich!

cheers

Just don't put the stress on yourself about what level you should be at. It isn't a competition.It is not a race. It's music. It's about expression and enjoyment. Relax, enjoy it, express yourself. Be at one with it! It will come naturally!

My mate as took his amp to be fixed. He and I are both idiots. A guy as explained what's wrong and what is solution is. It sounds perfectly reasonable but we wanted to check with people who may know. My mate knows the guy he's took it to a little bit. He is an electronics and amp fixy guy. Its probably paranoia but i didn't want to lay the problem out on here and the guy turn out to be a member here as he's a amp guy. If do we would give the impression of not trusting him!

I need some advice on valves and amps being fixed as i know bugger all. Could i PM anyone who knows what they are talking about? Cheers

Forgive my ignorance so are these all samples or can you create your own melodies with them?

Synthwave is so cool even the Hoff is in on it! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZTidn2dBYbY

I've started something but i don't think it really fits with the pic. I like it and will carry on with it but prob won't enter it as i can't see it having owt to do with it!

[quote name='Thunderpaws' timestamp='1454846927' post='2973424'] Not very useful. [/quote]It is if you a have a heroin problem!

A bit of Synthwave. Mitch Murder http://youtu.be/WM47q02N1-4

[quote name='icastle' timestamp='1454625771' post='2971544'] Unless there's a bassist in the audience then its unlikely that anyone will even notice it. [/quote] I wouldn't care if there was. There is no standard model of playing. Do ya own thing!

[quote name='Hobbayne' timestamp='1454617487' post='2971443'] Some people even go and buy new strings just because the new zingyness has faded. [/quote] That's me

[quote name='keefbaker' timestamp='1454672394' post='2971854'] So, anybody into stuff that doesn't use bass? Recently I've been going through a Synthwave bent, mainly because it reminds me of old 80s scifi movies. [/quote] I've recently got into synthwave. Mitch murder etc. Love it for same reason but it is also really musical. I like the scandanavian penchant for harmonic and melodic minor. To be fair love them synth bass sounds
