Won't eat up your board as they are relatively smooth. Loved them on a fretless that I had and I will be getting another set when my current defret is ready. [/quote]The mwah is nowhere near mwahy enough and when he said getting that jaco ish sound. well it doesn't

Oh! I thought LBGS meant something else!

[quote name='Badass' timestamp='1403948033' post='2487913'] Very true. Had a stand in pro drummer stand in at the last minute. He borrowed four or five kit pieces from other bands. Kit looked like a jumble sale job lot, but he made them sound like there were £10,000 worth of kit. No need for twenty five kit pieces when four will do ! [/quote] We did a theatre tour of a musical with a drummer with a big kit, there was also other issues. But he wasn't asked back for the 2nd and 3rd legs of the tour. The next drummer came in and was brilliant, got along with everyone and had such a positive attitude that lifted everyone. After the tours we've (me, guitarists) have stayed friends with him. He says he'll never forget the first thing one of the guitarists said. As he was setting up at the first rehearsal he was quite nervous as he was coming into an already established band on probably one of the biggest jobs he'd had. He used a four piece kit with minimal cymbals. The guitarist said aloud to me. 'Here Tom, he's only brought half a drum kit'

I'd say this is my favourite Jack White bit. I don't give a f*** how good a blues player or soloist he is. This is a tune and that's all that matters! http://youtu.be/Q7aOWIFgIZQ

[quote name='booboo' timestamp='1403555633' post='2483924'] The big thing about a lot of classic queen is it's piano/vocal led. If you listen to that 'good old fashioned lover boy' in an earlier post it's like chamber music - piano / vocals (Freddie) out front in the mix and on stage, with bass, guitar, vocals supporting. How many cover bands play Queen tunes like they are guitar w***fests, with a 'death metal' approach to bass and drums? - most that I have heard / played in. There are actually very clever production values in Queen recordings. A classical piano sound, Brian Mays guitar is a distinctive sound used like a garnish rather than gravy, and bass/drums sit perfectly in the mix - bass never fights the piano left hand for sonic space. For me JD is great because he understood all this and chose his moments to shine -or just support. You can say the same for Taylor and May. [/quote]Totes!

Cannabis!

Just play every and any note as fast as you can, leave the odd couple of beats free. ( There you have shred and jazz guitar solos)

[quote name='discreet' timestamp='1403045060' post='2479301'] That's funny, I usually think it's right-wing Daily Mail-reading old bollocks. Are we looking at the same OT? General Discussion pretty much IS Off-Topic... only with a post count. [/quote] When you're a hardcore Nazi like me, everything is left wing. Ha ha......kidding

I've kinda slipped away from OT. There's alot of the same people spouting the same old bollocks. Usually left wing, right on, philosophy 101. A bit like Rik Mayalls People's Poet in Young Ones. Probably googling the sh*t outta stuff to back up there arguments. Put presenting it as knowledge they've always had. Plus people don't take on what you say unless you are in the argument......tho perhaps its just me they ignore haha. Bring back Dingus and Xilldx that's what I say. It was more fun and interesting then. Plus they usually sat opposite the bollocks in their views. Shouldn't this be in OT...that's it. I'm telling a mod!

Not got time to enter this month!

Any tune!

I live near wigan, can play anything and have effects......... I have no transport and am not familiar with all era genesis.......That's me out!

I just always try to get the arrangements 100% sorted in my head first. Know where every song is going. Then i get by by playing as little as possible. I never embellish anything, just keep to the pad but then again i do try to make things simpler when i can.

Mine's going to be called Spilled Cocaine on a Black Table.

[quote name='xilddx' timestamp='1401782476' post='2466686'] I voted for yours, I thought it was brilliant! Well done to Stephen though, a great entry. They all were. [/quote] Cheers pal.

Well done Stephen. I voted for yours. Its the first time i've voted for the winner

Thanks dad, thought so!

I think i know the answer but want to check before i give bad advice. My mate has an old Marshall head (guitar)where you select the ohms on the back of the amp. He has it running thru a peavey 4x12 at 16 ohms. So on the back of the amp its selected on 16 ohms. If he was to add another 16 ohm cab. He would change that to 8 ohms wouldn't he? I know the totall impedance would drop to 8 ohm. But it's going to two 16 ohm cabs. That's what is causing the very slight confusion. I am right about selecting 8ohms aren't I?

Has anyone said creme brulee!

Menage a quatre

Voted. It was the one that really got me and took me somewhere!

[quote name='Dad3353' timestamp='1400801844' post='2457220'] Nah, just kidding with the previous post. Great stuff, right up my street. I've left a comment, so I won't repeat here; suffice it to say that any remaining entrants had better come up with something darned good, 'cos we're well up at the top here. Like..! [/quote] Cheers, thanks for the comment too!
