Hello, I came to register and to try and reach that level of awsomeness in playing and songwriting that provides you with pride, fun and feeling good about yourself (and maybe some chicks:-) sorry I mean girls
can you record music with an internet band, that might be what I'm looking for. I'm not a band leader, I only join the bandmembers of the round table.
Please everybody talk to me if your interested in worldwide cooperation in working out songs and idea's. I think it would be very nice to have an internet band, but I never knew how to start one...
about me, you can compare me with everybody, but I don't resemble anyone. I don't follow theoretical guidelines because I don't know any (am working on that), but I have many idea's, tons of motivation, I can play what you tell me to play (memorizig is the hard part for me) except for difficult techniques and speed maybe. I don't believe in the use for me personally of focussing on sweep picking and all, need to learn much more important stuff first...
My musical influence:
Jimi Hendrix, SRV, Dire straits, Eric Johnson, stevie wonder, bob dylan, jeff buckley, nirvana, Metallica, megadeth, death, pantera, Acdc, black sabbath, zz top, johnny guitar watson, van halen, randy rhoads, rage against the machine, red hot chili peppers (first 3 albums only), pink floyd, rolling stones, pearl jam, smashing pumpkins, and some random stuff....
and of course every other blues/funk/rock/hard rock/metal song I ever heard and liked. These bands influenced me for playing guitar, writing songs/riffs , writing lyrics, how to behave in daily life, what to dream about, which drugs to use and which not to use, not buying guns, don't use airplanes/helicopters at age 27, never growing old and living a litlle bit of the rock life/attitude when poosible and sometimes when not possible still... But that's what I do...
I got a new hobby since a few weeks, writing song lyrics and writing+arranging full songs (in the past I only got as far as recording riffs or jam loops...
For me good songs have: groove or sentiment/feeling , a meaning of some kind (unless they are about meaninglessness), special moments (fills, bridges) structure and fun (when songs are as perfect as perfect can be)
I will stop now, because I am writing too much and forgot why I am writing this reply
Oh yeh, start a band...
contact me if you would rather go for a combination of luck, feel, fun and anything is possible-nessmy level... undetermined, certainly not the highest, but in some ways beginner, and in some way on the flipside of intermediance ... yeah I took another road... nah I'm just full of crap :-) I'll take beginner, I don't like pulling the group level % down. I'd like to be on the initiative and idea thinking side of productions. I play guitar, I would play bass if I had one. I can sound like one though, but I can't play slapping with a regular guitar... and that sucks, cause slapping is one of the coolest things ever invented. Recently I started exploring my singing qualities, but haven't got great results yet.. But at least I learned to sing and play guitar at the same time, very usefull and fun... for that matter I lack some confidence and practice... but Rome wasn't built in one day, so... you know...
my valuable lesson in life for today:
If you believe you are awsome... you probably suck ass.. but still strife for awsomeness, cause nothing would be more awsome... yeah, think about that... (better don't)
