TonyBones Posted January 17, 2012 Share Posted January 17, 2012 Thats not a party trick, a real party trick is being caught out at the start of Dakota (stereophonics) and playing through the whole song without spilling yer pint Ner! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paul_5 Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 That sort of thing would be most unwelcome at my kind of party - there's nothing more annoying than a four bar loop when you're trying to play Scrabble. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ojplaysbass Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 i thought that was going to go somewhere...... apparently not. its probably a good vehicle for those starting out with solo techniques or 2 hand tapping..... but i thought he was going to do something amazing with the solo section! sigh....

Not much of a party trick if my friends kill me afterwards. Now that would be more interesting. Other than that i kinda liked his idea - just not that song.
