Blues and Jazz Off Topic/Chat Thread!

[TheDev01dOne]

Gary Moore is pretty sweet, I like his stuff with Thin Lizzy the most though I think but he is still a damn fine blues player IMO.

Anyway me and my GF are totally getting kicked out of the house so we're looking for somewhere cheap to rent and it's gonna suck, will be a flat or shared house so I won't be able to play guitar or take our pets or anything, not to mention we can barely afford it anyway.

On the plus side we won't have to put up with her parents or her fat lazy sister so it will be all good as long as we can find somewhere reasonably close to our jobs so we can keep earning and saving money to go back to Aus.

EDIT: Probably won't be able to afford internets either :eek: WTF am I going to do with my life with no interwebconnections.

[Dimebag22]

^Steal it. :p:

[slidething31]

:haha The first summer I lived in California I stole internet from a neighbor.

[Dimebag22]

When I moved here, and I didn't have internet yet. I stole from my neighbor too, but I would download so much shit off of their connection it wasn't even funny. :haha They must have wondered why their internet suddenly went slower than hell.

[theneildeal]

yeah my girlfriend's internet isn't working at the moment, so she was 10 neighbours to steal from!

Just don't move next door to me, because ill know what you're up to!

[gopherthegreat]

Wait, which one are you doing Gopher?
I tried Orgasm, Ectsasy, Nitrous, Pot, Alchohol, and Speed. The only one that anything remotely close to the intended result was Ecstasy, which just made me feel very strange, shake violently for short amounts of time, twitch a lot, and I couldn't stop laughing. It was kinda cool.

Some of those things are like 30 mins. You actually did all that without getting bored?

[Lance09301]

Gary Moore is the ****in man. download The Thrill Is Gone with him and BB King. thats the song that got me wanting to play the blues.

[Axegrinder#9]

well you can't be doing E without being in a club or rave with some badass electro-house and trip-hop playing. and all of that together? tsk tsk. you shoulda just saved the money and eaten a nice hit of acid ;)

[gopherthegreat]

I would ussually stop if I wasn't feeling anything at all and it was about 20 minutes.

I downloaded it off torrents. Didn't pay a dime ;)

Edit: And in case you missed it, I'm refering to I-Doser :haha

[TNfootballfan62]

I'm watching "Where the Light Is" on blu-ray. Top notch video and especially audio quality. This acoustic set is getting old, though.

[theneildeal]

oh dear god, ive just seen a video of crossroads from hyde park calling.

When i was a big Guns N Roses fan, i resented Sheryl Crow for murdering Sweet Child Of Mine, and now she has taken Crossroads from me

Bitch

[theneildeal]

ive just read that story about the lost hendrix album with stephen stills. Because its in Still's possesion, the selfish hendrix family might not be able to stop it from being released. That would be incredible

[TheDev01dOne]

Awesome, my GF and I move into our new place on Sunday! It's a house share type thing so we get our own bedroom and then shared everything else, all furnished, bills included in the rent. Wireless internet included in the rent. AND it's walking distance to both of our jobs so we'll be saving over £100 a month on petrol money aswell so we'll actually be better off than living here with her parents, plus we won't have to put up with them being cuunts anymore.

Gonna be awesome, I'm really looking forward to it. The other couple (who own the house) seem quite nice aswell but I think they are jesus people, they have noahs ark on the table and gay **** like that, which is fine with me as long as they don't try to preach at me.

So yeah, things seem to have worked out quite well actually.

Also I didn't know Where The Light Is was out yet? I it out in UK, I might go buy it (Or try download it illlllllegally.)

[gopherthegreat]

Thats awesome! It must kind of suck to have to live with your girlfriends parents.....

[TheDev01dOne]

It was actually quite good, her dad is a pretty good musician and is nice enough when he wants to be, her whole family are actually not too bad and free accomodation and free food for 10months saved me a LOT of money. Just now they always seem to be pissed off with us for nothing and we're all getting a bit fed up of it so it's time we left and did our own thing.

I really want one of those foot stomp percussion box thingies, gonna have some experimenting at building my own.. I'm sure I can make a decent sounding wooden box to stomp on but I'm just not sure what kind of microphone or electronic crap I would use to amplify it for gigging purposes.

[GD_GC]

So funny story...

I was sitting in the car yesterday night at the park with my girlfriend, and we started doing what highschool couples do, just making out and all that good stuff, and the fucking cops came and banged on the window and showed me his badge and scared the living shit out of me. Nothing happened, he just told us to leave, but it was still the scariest thing that has happened to me in a long time.

Just thought that story was worthy of sharing with UG :haha

[TNfootballfan62]

^Wow, that actually happens? I thought that was a movie cliche!

[GD_GC]

Yeah, same here, that's why it was so scary! :haha

[ze monsta]

oh dear god, ive just seen a video of crossroads from hyde park calling.

Wrong, she wasn't that bad.

The guy is a pretty good guitarist though, check out some of his other videos.

[aetherspear]

^i donno, she can barely play guitar, and some of the songs not on the dvd were pretty bad as well. Just cause Eric is secretly in love with her. However Susan Tedeski was great, I didn't know she could play so well.

Ya, he's good

[TheDev01dOne]

Yeah it's a bit boring and lacking emotion but technically it's good, nice playing. That's the first video I seen of him just randomly clicking related videos today after watching this far superior version:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n1vZ3NIuJ3s

Loving Chris Whitley's stuff lately, kinda folky bluesy stuff. Too bad he killed himself by smoking.

[gopherthegreat]

Well it doesn't sound near as good on an electric, obviously. And his voice was boring. But overall I enjoyed it.

[TheDev01dOne]

He's only young too, still got to develop his voice and plenty of time to learn to put more emotion into performing. I wish I was half as good a guitarist as he is now, let alone how good he will probbly be when he's my age.

Might be the next Bonamassa or Trucks or Mayer..

Off to bed for me now. Gotsa work tomorrow damnit. I fuccking hate catching the bus to work.

[slidething31]

Just browsing craigslist and this caught my eye:

http://slo.craigslist.org/msg/750060190.html

It seems so absurd to me that someone would pay that much for a guitar just because it is old. It hasn't even been played by anyone famous or anything.

Some people just have too much money.

(I'm just jealous that I don't) :(

[Dimebag22]

I'd buy it...



:sad:

[TheDev01dOne]

68 wasn't that great a year anyway. Certainly not $15k worth anyway. Usually the mint, unplayed ones are pieces of shiite anyway which is why they never got played..

EDIT: I say 'anyway' far too much.

I've been talking with a friend today and we're gonna try put together and acoustic bluesy kinda band. Me on acoustic guitar and vox, he's gonna play percussion/jambi drums and sing a bit and then get my GF on bass.. See what we can do.

[Jackal58]

Hello Hello Hello ello ello
Man this place is empty.
Gus (zeMonsta) is up in the radio mix. Goolz was supposed to go this week but he didn't send me anything yet.
How the hell ya all doin'? I'm treating my hangover to a cup of coffee.

Pfffttt. Everbody else knows what puffins sound like.
:haha
That was kinda cool.

[Beakwithteeth]

Hi blues and jazz forum. I have been at a jazz camp all week if you missed me (you didn't). Couldn't matter that much though 'cuz I learned a ton and hung out with some great musicians. I also got to bluegrass jam with a friend of mine and some kid there who was incredible at fiddle. We were going to do it again the last night and record it but the kid didn't want to. Also there was an autistic kid who was amazing at drums.

[TheDev01dOne]

You know what's an awesome song Thunder On The Mountain by Bob Dylan off hi latest album Modern Times.. I thought if was Peter Green at first singing then checked the jukebox (was at work and someone put it on) and it's Bob doing an awesome 12bar with great great vocals.

If you haven't heard it.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d5uKHa9Gmks Listen and enjoy. I think I'll learn it.


Moving house tomorrow, should be fun. Now I'm gonna watch a Buddy Guy and Santana at Montreaux jazz festival DVD that my mum finally copied and posted over to me. Its a triple DVD I got just before I came over and only watched it once, has Santana guesting with Buddy Guy, Bobby Parker and Gatemouth Brown. Quite good to see him play different stuff with the other 2 guys but Buddy plays a phenomenal set and I think Santana noticed he was really on it that night because he came out quite late only for a few songs and then just chilled out in the background, which is a very mature and respectful thing to do I think, BUT.. I'd have loved him to feed of Buddy and see them both let loose.

[TNfootballfan62]

^That's a good DVD. I had it, but lost it in a tornado. Really nice stuff, though. The Bobby Parker set cracks me up.

[Dimebag22]

What's up boizz?!

Sorry I haven't been posting as much, I've been working two jobs and haven't had much time for you guys between work and friends. I quit one job today though :) the early morning one, which was brutal. So now I only work nights as a busboy at a sweet restaurant.

So yeah, I just got back from the Calgary Stampede... what a gold mine that place is. I mean fucking $7 for a smoothie, and $4 for water? What a rip. Anyways, it was pretty fun, but knowing that I spent $70 on one day, I donno :p: The two girls i was with went on this ride that was $40 for one time. Yes, that was not a typo... :p: I'm not that rich though, so I sat off for that one.

Sorry, I'm blabbering. I should stop. :p:

[Jimmy94]

Just got back from the All Good music festival, got to see Derek Trucks playing with his wife Susan Tedeschi. They make a great team.

[TNfootballfan62]

^Indeed they do. :cheers:

[slidething31]

So I was playing golf yesterday at a course near the beach, and next to the course there was a big tent for what soundeed like a wedding reception. There was some nice swinging music being played by a band.

It was definitley fun to dance my way on to the green.

[gopherthegreat]

It costs money to ride each seperate ride at an amusement park? :confused:

[Dimebag22]

It costs money to ride each seperate ride at an amusement park? :confused:
It's the Stampede. That's how they make their money. It's a fucking gold mine for our city. All the bars, gas stations and hotels bump up their prices and it's insane.

And it's not really an amusement park I guess... They only have it for 10 days during July and then they take all the shit down.

[gopherthegreat]

Oh.

It takes a scary kind of illness
To design a place like this for pay
Downtown's an endless generic mall
Of video games and fast food chains!

[TheDev01dOne]

I made it to my new house.. I'm stealing one of the neighbours' internets because the people can't remember their password to sign into their network..

So I have a funny story..

We came to check out the house and it was all nice and the guy was really nice. Sorted.

So then we rang the next day and said we'd move in and brought them a deposit that night and met his fiance and she was nice too, all good.

So on sunday we moved in. Did 1 massive load of basically everything except guitars and amps, carted it all up the stairs and then the other people went out so we could get unpacked and settled in a bit without them faffing about.
We unpacked everything pretty quickly then went back for guitars and amps and loaded all that in the car, cleaned the room in my GFs parents house, then brought all that crap here and brought it up the killer stairs with gret difficulty.
So we were all settled in, I was just putting the plugs in my amp and the other people came home. So we thought we'd have a rest and go chill for a while...
About 20mins into our conversation with them, having a drink and a rest before work, the girl piped up and asked "So are you guys religious at all?".. I just kept quiet and let my GF deal with it as I tend to start insulting people whenever religion is brought up..
"No not really." My girlfriend said.
"We are a bit but we don't take it too seriously. We go to church on sundays, we go to spiritual church" .. We just kept quiet, it was getting akward (I'd already known before we even went inside the house because of all the angel statues in the front window, I even said to my GF "Oh no, they're jesus people")
Then the girl asked my GF "Do you believe in spirits?"
"I'm not sure what I believe really." She answered politely.

Now for the punch line... The girl said "Oh because I can see spirits. Sometimes I can tell people's past and on Sundays at church they sometimes let me get up and communicate with people's spirits"..

So yeah, we're a bit creeped out.. Hilarious though.

[TNfootballfan62]

^Okay, let me say this. I'm a Christian, or a "Jesus person," and we are NOT all like that. :p:

[slidething31]

^ Weird man. Hopefully it won't be too strange and awkward living there.

[gopherthegreat]

I think I can safely speak for every single Unitarian Christian out there when I say.......


THOSE PEOPLE ARE WACK!

[Dimebag22]

What's you guy's view's on The Black Crowes? Anyone a fan?

I've really been into them quite recently. They got some major blues influences in their rock and it's great to listen to :)

[slidething31]

I really like The Black Crowes. They are one of a very few bands today that just play good old rock and roll. Not emo crap, or metal, or pop.

Just good rock and roll.

[gopherthegreat]

I like the Black Crowes

[slidething31]

Anyone watachin the All Star Game?

[TNfootballfan62]

I am. Go NL!

[slidething31]

They're sure due for a win. I just wanna see Josh Hamilton hit one out.

[TNfootballfan62]

If you watched last night, you saw him do that plenty of times. :p:

[slidething31]

Yeah, that was unbelievable. He really seems like he's gotten straight. He was real humble and polite when they were interviewing him.

[TNfootballfan62]

Yeah, he's a real likable guy, and last night seems to have put him on the map.

[ze monsta]

My band had battle of the bands last night....there were 4 categories: junior, intermediate, senior and overall winner. We won intermediate, which was awesome. But the amps were nicer. :liplick:

I played through a Fender Princeton Reverb which was incredible, awesome cleans.

We played two songs an original which wasn't that good but alright and we played Knockin on Heavens Door (I sang that) which was awesome. My friend played some killer solo on it as well, there were girls screaming our names in the crowd (epic win). :D

[gopherthegreat]

Can we hear some recordings of your band?

[ze monsta]

No actually, but that should change tomorrow!
I'm going to the coast with 2 guys from my band and we have recording to do! I'll be there a few days before I go on holiday (vacation n00bs) with my family for two weeks but I promise I'll get something done. :)

[barefootboy]

What's you guy's view's on The Black Crowes? Anyone a fan?

I've really been into them quite recently. They got some major blues influences in their rock and it's great to listen to :)

I just added August and Everything After to my CD collection. And I'm listening to it now.

[TheDev01dOne]

August And Everything After is by Counting Crows, not The Black Crowes.. Still great though, if not much better (IMO)

Which lyrics do you guys prefer?

I'm Gonna Find Another You : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=51LBcKGfg8o (Great performance by the whole band)
or
Need Your Love So Bad : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nVqJxpAuxT8 (Amazing cover this guy does.)

Just judging on lyrics because its only gonna be me and an acoustic guitar, no fancy ****. I think I like Need Your Love So Bad better because I sing it better, its hard to hit the high notes in IGFAY.

[TNfootballfan62]

^Need Your Love So Bad, probably. Depends on what kind of blues you have, though. :p:

[Amart]

^ I agree. I could be biased by my distaste for Mayer though...

[TheDev01dOne]

Sweet, NYLSB it is. The plan was to do that I was just after a little approval I guess, they're both 99% the same guitar-wise so I was gonna do one or the other. I might actually rope someone in to play some electric lead for me if I can, would make it a little more interesting.

[barefootboy]

[QUOTE=TheDev01dOne]August And Everything After is by Counting Crows, not The Black Crowes.. Still great though, if not much better (IMO)

Looks like I'm asleep at the wheel again. It was a long hot day and the brain must have shut off.

You'd have to split the moola though! :p:

It could be cool, although it would take away from the mood of the "mysterious bluesman and his guitar", if you know what I mean.

I'd only add it in if you felt the song really felt empty.

[TheDev01dOne]

It's an unpaid gig so no worries about the money... Its the same as my last gig, instead of Wilkestonbury, now it is Wilkestock.. It's an outdoor gig at the pub I work to about 300 people and a large majority of them are musicians themselves. I want to entertain them, not bore them too much so I'm trying to do more exciting and different songs this time because last time I played all straight blues except for Hey Joe, which is still pretty bluesy and samey played on acoustic. I really want to do NYLSB though so I think I'll ust get someone to play some tasteful lead to accompany my singing to keep it moving along and hopefully hold the crowd's attention.

So far the songs I'm gonna do arent very bluesy, I'm gonna do:

Mr Jones - Counting Crows
House Of The Rising Sun
NYLSB - Fleetwood Mac
Roll Away - Back Door Slam
On My Way - (My own song, I'm sure you've all heard it by now ((its on my myspace, check it out)))
You Ain't Goin Nowhere - Bob Dylan
The Weight - The Band

Need a few more but I can't think of any. Only have 10 days..

[slidething31]

^ I'm telling you, CCR never disappoints.

[Amart]

Hear My Train Comin' is a good song to play for just guitar and vocals.

Was your last set all acoustic aswell? If so it would be a good idea to include the electric; don't want to be too repetitive.

"On My Way" is a pretty cool song; I like the tempo change idea.

[TNfootballfan62]

Blues Traveler? That would fit well into your set.

[gopherthegreat]

Guys, I just looked up my address on familywatchdog.org


And my next dor neighbor has been convicted of Aggravated Sexual Assault towards a minor under 3 years old.

Holy Fuckinging Shit.

[TNfootballfan62]

^Can you check without paying?

[theneildeal]

Guys, I just looked up my address on familywatchdog.org


And my next dor neighbor has been convicted of Aggravated Sexual Assault towards a minor under 3 years old.

Holy Fuckinging Shit.

I wish that we could do that in the UK. We have too many human rights here

[TheHeartbreaker]

Guys, I just looked up my address on familywatchdog.org


And my next dor neighbor has been convicted of Aggravated Sexual Assault towards a minor under 3 years old.

Holy Fuckinging Shit.

:eek:

Aren't they supposed to inform you of that when they move in/you move next door?

[slidething31]

I thought so... I just looked up my old address, there were 30 within 10 miles.

Good thing I moved.

[theneildeal]

:eek:

Aren't they supposed to inform you of that when they move in/you move next door?

The council or the paedo?

"Hi, ive just moved in next door and im a convicted boy-hungry paedophile. I can't get a job, for obvious reasons, so if i can do any odd jobs, like babysitting, im your man!"

[gopherthegreat]

I just checked again, apparently I was wrong. He has a different town, but the exact same address. Lawl.

Thank god..........


EdiT; Although quite a few live extremely close by, and one lives two streets over

[slidething31]

^ Haha. I think they have to put fliers in the mailboxes or something. I don't quite know, but I have read in the newspaper about some neighborhoods where people find out a pedo is moving in, and they go nuts about it.

I mean, honestly, they are people too. They did their time. I can understand why people get upset, it is horrible and disgusting, but they do have a right to live.

[TheHeartbreaker]

"Hi, ive just moved in next door and im a convicted boy-hungry paedophile. I can't get a job, for obvious reasons, so if i can do any odd jobs, like babysitting, im your man!"

Basically.

[slidething31]

So I found an awesome compilation of tunes that Grace Potter and Warren Haynes have done together. Awesome rendition of Gold Dust Woman.

[TheHeartbreaker]

Warren Haynes = infinite orgasm.

[slidething31]

Did everyone know that Buddy Guy has a new album coming out on Tues.?

Derek Trucks plays on a few tracks, as does Robert Randolph. Clapton is on one also.

[Dimebag22]

Are you serious? Awesome! :)

[TNfootballfan62]

This is great news!

[slidething31]

Here I haven't listened to clips yet, but I think they're on there.

[GD_GC]

Woo, I'm back guys! What did I miss?

[Dchild042]

Well i have a few blues bands for you all to check out. I was in Austin the past week and saw these bands plays. Eric Teesmer Band and/ or Mike Milligan and the Altar Boyz. Search them on myspace or itunes if your bored or want to hear something new.

[nightraven]

so uh, my strat project is almost done. i just need to wait a bit for the poorly lacquered body to cure and to get enough money for a new neck.

(if anyone remembers me starting this aaaages ago with some crappy designs here)

[Jackal58]

goolz is up on the radio mix. I need more volunteers. :cheers:

[GD_GC]

So it seems like the activity in this fourm has been declining latley, do you guys notice that too?

[Dimebag22]

Our forum sucks. :p:

[GD_GC]

No it doesn't!















:sad:

[GD_GC]

Oh but guess what? I think I finally get my freaking amp back tomorrow! Just in time to play the cincy blues fest in like 2 weeks.

[theneildeal]

nice one. that means that we can FINALLY get the blues jam finished!

[Dimebag22]

Yes! Awesome man.

[sre9981]

I'm on a Muddy Waters kick right now. Its the first time I've listened to blues in probably 2-3 months.

oh and

Howlin' Wolf talking about the blues and calling out Son House

[gopherthegreat]

Yes. Thats why I've been posting less in here. This forum has kinda stopped moving :(

[Carswell98]

Yes. Thats why I've been posting less in here. This forum has kinda stopped moving :(


I leave for 2 whole months and this place goes down the tubes... :p:

Braedon!! Hey man how have you been?

[gopherthegreat]

Also, all the threads seem to be the same thing nowadays. Someone just saying "I've been into metal and shred my whole life. I wanna know how to play the blues. I'm consulting you guys since it is just such an incredibly complex genre and requires massive amounts of theory, right? I'm starting out with this 12-bar thing, and I am totally stumped. And what the fuck is the pentatonic scale? I never actually listened to blues, I'm just a shredder who's making a sad attempt at making myself look open-minded."

I am pissed off today.

[Dimebag22]

:haha

Go for a toke Logan... Then come back ;)

[Amart]

That's the problem with your average shredder; they expect things like theory and scales to tell them how to play, which is probably why they have so much trouble with the blues. It's based off just three chords, and a five note scale. Not much learn, lots to play ;)

[slidething31]

Saw Mayer two days ago. I wrote a bit about it in the Mayer Thread.

Did anyone know his middle name is Clayton?

[gopherthegreat]

Did anyone know his middle name is Clayton?
No I didn't

[Dimebag22]

I'm going on a trip to BC for a week. I'll see yah all when I get back.

:cheers:

[GD_GC]

Peace man, have a good trip!

:cheers:

[gopherthegreat]

Bye!

[Jackal58]

Have a good trip Kris. :wavey:
Although at the rate this thread is moving I could probably also say welcome back Kris :wavey:
And it'll still be the last post when you return. :)

[GD_GC]

Damn, this thread has died :sad:

[Dchild042]

Does anyone here own a vinyl record player? im thinking about buying one but i dont know if its worth it or how much they cost. also, any suggestions of what i should buy if i decide to get one?

[aetherspear]

Musiciansfriend has a bunch, just get decent $100 one or something.

[Highbinder]

Does anyone here own a vinyl record player? im thinking about buying one but i dont know if its worth it or how much they cost. also, any suggestions of what i should buy if i decide to get one?

I suggest a USB one. I have an old school one but the problem is the speakers are crap and I can't get replacements so it doesn't really do it justice.

[JilaX^]

So I'm going to Norways biggest bluesfestival tomorrow.

I'll hopefully get to see Pinetop Perkins with Willie ”Big Eyes” Smith, Calvin Jones and Jerry Portnoy.

Also I'll probably catch James Cotton, Charlie Musselwhite, Kim Wilson and The Fabulous Thunderbirds playing a show together. Which should be pretty good. (James Cotton, ftw.)

The reason I'm going there is playing, tho. The band I'm in is in the semifinals of this competition for young blues bands, which is pretty cool as only 10 bands get through to the semifinals.

Which isn't too bad considering how we're (atm) two 14 year olds, and two 16 year olds. See yall, when I get back.

[TNfootballfan62]

^Good luck. :cheers:

[srvflood]

How many of you pay for your music? Just curious.

[TheDev01dOne]

I download all my music first and don't buy most unless it's current, smaller bands who I really like and I really like the album.

Pretty sure enough people have payed for enough Muddy Waters' albums.. Whereas I most recently bought Back Door Slam's album, all 4 of Collard Greens And Gravy's albums, a couple of Jeff Lang albums.. They actually would appreciate the $20 or whatever with being independant instead of 60% of my money making some gigantic record company CEO richer.

I'm fine with giving my music away for free if people wanted it. I think the fact people want to listen to it is enough gratification of making it. Disregarding expensive recording costs and duplication/distribution costs of course, but there are ways around that I guess. Breaking even would be the best hopeful outcome. Therefore I don't feel at all guilty downloading some Buddy Guy or old Fleetwood Mac or Roy Buchanan or whatever since they've already got plenty of money..

Does that even make sense?

[TNfootballfan62]

^Makes perfect sense as a good rationalization. ;)

That's like saying that since Wonder Bread (don't know if you even have that in England) are already a huge company, it's okay to take their bread from the store without paying for it.

And I'm not preaching at you, just sharing my opinion on it. :cheers:

Oh man, I've been dying to see Pinetop.

My Buddy Guy ticket came in the mail today though. :)

[aetherspear]

I'm going to Lollapalooza This weekend for all 3 days, and Buddy Guy's is real close to grant park so we're going to eat lunch there once or twice. I've already been there and it's great, but it's moving soon.

There are a few bands I like such as the Black keys, Radiohead (that's enough right there really), yeasayer. But there are a ton that I've never heard of. I'm going more for the overall experience.

This thread has really slowed down. Actually the whole forum has. I guess its just the summer.

I wastched ZZ Top live in Texas on VH1 Classic today. I love when they show good concerts like that.

[Jimmy94]

This isn't blues, but I figured you guys might get a kick out of it, and my soloing is somewhat bluesy as always. I'm playing with a few friends in an early Soundgarden band this summer. We recorded a bunch of our songs today at practice, check them out for a good laugh! My favorites are You guys will probably dig Fopp (cover of the Ohio Players funk classic) and Circle of Power.

I'm the guitar that comes out of the left speaker, and the lead vocalist on fopp and all your lies. I get the solo in Fopp, Circle of Power and the second solo in All Your Lies.

Not amazing but it was fun. Man was it hot up on that stage aswell.

Also I finally found a drummer for my band so I think we'll be sorted soon aswell and can start doing gigs as long as the drummer can practice as much as I'd like to. Pretty psyched about that, gigs will be fun and I could use the extra money aswell.

[ze monsta]

Howdy folks.

Holiday was awesome, nuff said.

How you all been? The forum been slow? Is Goolz banned? Is Braedon back?

[barefootboy]

What are you guys learning to play? ( besides blues) I am stuck in a rut and pick the same kind of music all the time. I need something different to inspire me. Any suggestions?

[TheDev01dOne]

If you play a lot of electric, try learning some songs on acoustic, can still be the same genre but I find swapping between electric and acoustic and transferring techniques tends to open more possibilities and can be fun to experiment with.

Otherwise just learn some crazy fast stupid technical metal stuff to get your fingers/brain out of their comfort zone.

[ze monsta]

I'm improving my finger picking with some Lightnin Hopkins songs. I love the man, so damn cool. I've been playing acoustic for the last two week on holiday, and get my electric and amp back today from a friend who's house I left them at before I went away.

[Dimebag22]

I've been learning a lot of Ska and Reggae tunes lately. I'm talking like Marley, Sublime, IllScarlett, Bedouin Soundclash etc. It's really fun to play.

[JilaX^]

Hey y'all.
I returned from the festival on Saturday, but I've been kinda busy since then.

One of the most disappointing things that happened there, was that some retard in administration decided that concerts after 21.00 were only for those 18+ So I didn't get to watch Pintetop or nothing. I did get to watch Kenny Wayne Shepperd for a while tho. Watched him from the street, looking in. He was pretty amazing.

The band I'm in did a pretty good job as well. We didn't go on to the final, but we've only been playing since September and consist of 2 16 year olds and 2 14 year olds. The winners were 20-24, have released 2 EPs and they've been playing together for like, 6 years. So we've still got some time on our hands :p:

I did however, get to watch Vidar Busk (amongst others) and he is just... Wow. A true guitar virtuoso. His playing is very Jazzy and Bluesy. All at the same time. His performance was just blinding. I'm still listening to his "I Came Here To Rock" cd, constantly.

I also met some guys there who saw SRV just after he went clean, pretty cool stuff. One of their brothers had seen him in like '79 too, which must've been fantastic.

I also got the Dunlop Jimi Hendrix Wah. For like 200-300$ which is a good price (In Norway at least ;)), I mean it's cheaper then buying the same pedal online, from a Norwegian site. It's a pretty good wah too, I've been running it like this: My Guitar > Ibanez TS 9 > Dunlop JH Wah > Roland Cube 30. Which gets me some surprisingly good sounds. (The battery cost is going to be the end of me tho. :haha: )

Some reggae and ska sounds interesting. The fingers work well enough for speed metal or any thing crazy fast. (Ol' Arthur Itis) Maybe some fingerpicking would help limber them up. Thanks guys.

[slidething31]

That is pretty cool. Where was that?

[slidething31]

So... Brett Favre is a Jet. Anyone else excited about football season coming up? I'm hopin the Saints can get back to their 2006 form.

[TNfootballfan62]

^If I have a passion that rivals guitar, it's football. Hence my username. I eat, sleep, and breath football during football season, and suffer from some serious withdrawal during the offseason.

Go Titans!


31-14, btw. :p:

[slidething31]

31-14?

[TNfootballfan62]

Titans v. Saints on Monday Night Football. Ring a bell? :p:

EDIT: I only know that score b/c I have a roommate who is a Saints fan. I gave him a hard time about it a lot. :haha

[nightraven]

Hey guise. I'm posting from Upstate New York. Spooky.
what's more spooky is that i just got back from my trip to the USA which included a number of days in new york. :eek:

[slidething31]

Ahh Ok. It's a new season. And if I'm not mistaken, that was the game when Deuce got hurt. If he can come back and be at least 2/3 of what he was, then the Saints are in great shape to win the South.

[TNfootballfan62]

^Yeah, if they can get a defense together, they'll be tough. Adding Shockey was great for them, too.

[slidething31]

And plus, they play in the NFC. It's a hell of a lot tougher for yall to come out of the AFC south.

[TNfootballfan62]

^I know! At least the Texans used to be 2 wins, but now, they have the talent to compete for a wild card spot.

[slidething31]

Isn't it funny how a few years ago everyone ripped on the Texans for taking Mario Williams? And that Bush just dropped into the Saints laps? Vince Young hasn't been quite the dissapointment that Reggie has, but he hasn't been great either.

[TNfootballfan62]

^Well Vince had a great first season, considering he was a rookie QB. Last year he took a big step back, thanks in small part to no real playmakers at receiver. But, we got rid of the Offensive Coordinator and brought back the one that turned Stevie McNair into a 3 time probowler and MVP, so maybe he can bring Vince some success. Plus, we added Alge Crumpler at TE and Chris Johnson in the draft, who runs a 4.2 40. No to mention, the O coordinator thinks our rookie receiver is like a more skilled version of Derrick Mason, so if our offensive improves like I expect it to, then we'll be serious contenders, I think.

EDIT: But to answer your question, yes, that's hilarious.

[slidething31]

^ Yup both the Saints and the Titans have definitely added some pieces. But still, with Indy, the Jags, and the Texans, that is probably the toughest division in football.

As for the NFC south, Atlanta sucks. Carolina, I think, will be lucky to win 7, and Tampa Bay might be decent.

[TNfootballfan62]

^Yeah, who won the division last year? Tampa? I think they'll repeat unless New Orleans gets those defensive guys they picked up in the offseason to work out well for them.

[slidething31]

Yeah Tampa won it with 9 wins. They beat us twice. But Sedrick Ellis, the rookie from USC, and Jonathan Vilma, should help out the D a lot. And hopefully, the corner we got in the draft can do some good things, cause the secondary is really where we struggle most.

[TNfootballfan62]

^:haha Tennessee snuck into the playoffs as the 2nd wildcard, and 3rd best team in the AFC South with 10 wins. But that's the NFL. In 5 years, the NFC could be the dominant conference.

But yeah, those guys should really help. A lot of people underestimate the value of a good Defensive tackle, but if you look at the Titans without Albert Haynesworth last year, our defense was average at best.

The Titans secondary was really impressive last year, which kind of came out of nowhere. Now it's the same group of guys with a year more experience. Should be an exciting year.

Rugby is where it's at, that's not a pussy sport.

[slidething31]

Rugby is badass.

[ze monsta]

I've broken someone's arm playing school rugby...was absolutely gross, I stepped on it by accident (but his fault coz he was supposed to have his hand protecting his head but tried to grab the ball when he was on the ground = fail and bound to get hurt) and it snapped at the elbow and came out of the skin...

Ice hockey is a manly sport from what I know of it, that game is vicious.

[slidething31]

Ice hockey is great too. Minor League games are the best. 5 dollar tickets, and there were so many more fights than in the NHL. Also dollar beers on Wednesdays.

[gopherthegreat]

I have no idea how to play rugby.

[Dchild042]

well rugby is basically a ufc match of a bunch of guys, with a ball thrown in

Anyone picked up Buddy Guy's new album "Skin Deep"?
I got it yesterday, absolutely fantastic worth every penny, Derek Trucks and Robert Randolph are incredible. EC makes a contribution on "Every Time I Sing The Blues" but it isn't a star track IMO. The first track, "Best Damn Fool" is mind blowing. The title track "Skin Deep" is a bit clichéd but a nice song anyway, and Derek Trucks has an incredible solo.

My favourite track is definitely "Who's Gonna Fill Those Shoes" with Quinn Sullivan (whose like 10 or 11) great lyrics and super groovy.

I really recommend it! :)

[TNfootballfan62]

^I haven't bought it yet, but I listened to most of it with a friend. Fantastic album.

[nalyd]

Yeah, I listened to that at the local music store as well and thought it was brilliant (big fan of Derek Trucks), I'll probably pick it up pretty soon.

[slidething31]

Wow. So I just found a few songs from a Dead show in 1970, with Duane Allman and Peter Green playing with them.

Dark Star > Spanish Jam > Turn On Your Lovelight

[slidething31]

Good point...

But it still sucks to have to rely on other people when you are the best in the world...

[TNfootballfan62]

That's true. Still, the people he's swimming with are some of the best in the world, too. He just happens to be a step above them. :p:

[gopherthegreat]

I haven't been in the Blues forum as much lately :(

Lately our forum has just been the same exact threads over and over

[slidething31]

Well Michael Phelps is now statistically the greatest olympian ever.

Also, what does everyone think about this thing with Russia and Georgia? Honestly, it kind of worries me. Especially with Russia's comments about Poland, which are somewhat hostile towards America.

[TNfootballfan62]

There's a lot of tension in the world right now, and the bad part is, it involves countries that America won't touch: Russia and Iran. We won't do anything to hurt them because we need their oil.

This whole dependence on foreign oil is going to lead to a world war.

:)

[slidething31]

This whole dependence on foreign oil is going to lead to a world war.

:)
tis troubling, but if you look down the road 20 or even 10 years, I think world war is almost inevitable. :( :(

[TNfootballfan62]

^Yeah, and it's because we're letting people like Russia flex their muscle on small democracies with no punishment, because if we try to stop them, it will cripple our nation. The world tried appeasement in the 1940s with Germany, and you see how that worked out. It's probably to late to fix the problems now, but the first step is independence from foreign oil. If Russia knew that we could send troops at a moments notice, then they wouldn't be so eager to invade places like Georgia, but they know very well that we aren't budging.

But those are just my thoughts. :haha

DID go to school at UC Irvine. It's too expensive.

I like the school, but the area is not to my liking. Too many pretentious middle class assholes. Not for me.

Cal Poly is good, I got into there, too.

You should do Sac State. That's where I'm gonna be going soon.

[slidething31]

Yeah I'll probably end up at a Cal State rather than UC. Less strict transfer requirements I think.

If I don't stay around San Luis, I would probably go north somewhere...
