Hello everybody,
today I have a lesson request for a style called "shoegazing". My girlfriend really likes this style, and I come to like it too. It's a nice contrast to all the metal and punk stuff I usually listen to  I believe the best-known song is "just like honey" by "the jesus and mary chain", although other songs make more use of the shoegazing guitar. Below is a wiki articel about shoegazing and the song "just like honey". Does anybody else like this style and/or wants to make a lesson about it? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shoegazing -------------------- |

I had NO idea that behavior had a name! This is great news. Very 80's-teen-angst-romantic-dramady style and I'm so glad someone named it. Excellent.
I second this request, though I suspect we could pull this style off pretty easily. -------------------- ::jafomatic

Oh we were staring down regardless of pedals; we had like NO stage presence during slow numbers like this. My band in highschool played this style almost as much as the angry/punkish/rockish junk. I think we had more followers because of the shoegazing than anything else. The sappy songs attracted the girls, the angry punk songs attracted the guys. Simple recipe.

Cool, sounds nice. This song has a very simple structure, but a good basic melody.

that's one big and intense guitar sound,
I just read the wiki and they say they are reinventing it, so now it's a "Nu-gaze" style.  So if start looking to other places when playing you are not a shoegazer anymore -------------------- Visit my:
