07:41:58 Owen: hey
07:42:04 muris: hi owen
07:42:10 muris: how's it going?
07:42:22 Owen: pretty good, practicing the new singing lesson
07:42:24 Owen: yourself?
07:42:33 muris: all fine
07:42:53 Owen: did you manage to make a start to the acoustic lesson you were planning?
07:42:58 Owen: or is it still in conception
07:43:04 muris: ohh,it's already done
07:43:15 muris: waiting for Kris to post it on server
07:43:32 Owen: cool, just fingerpicking and stuff?
07:43:54 muris: yeah,fingerpicking
07:44:03 muris: natural harmonics etc
07:44:24 Owen: ah cool, I'll give it a go when its up, those are two things I need to work on specifically
07:44:41 muris: you know
07:45:04 muris: cool thing here is that everyone can say what he's looking for
07:45:19 muris: so the next lessons can be made in that direction
07:45:32 Owen:
07:45:55 Owen: well I need to work on those two things because I kinda skipped some of the basics when I was learning
07:46:09 muris: yeah,why not
07:46:13 muris: it's never late
07:46:14 Owen: so now I'm having to go back and revisit them
07:46:40 muris: I'm thinking of next one
07:46:49 muris: probablu bending stuff
07:47:09 Owen: cool
07:47:33 muris: half,whole,whole and half,2 whole
07:47:44 muris: let strings breaking
07:47:46 muris: lol
07:48:02 Owen: I never think about that when I'm bending, I just do it
07:48:15 muris: oh,you must
07:48:19 Owen: I should probably go into the technicalities of these things in depth a bit more
07:48:34 muris: think of it as a slide
07:48:54 muris: must know where you are going to
07:49:25 Owen: haha, yeah, as I'm self taught I just randomly threw myself off in various different directions and hoped I would get somewhere
07:49:31 Owen: which was probably the wrong thing to do
07:49:32 muris: hehehe
07:49:38 muris: fair to say
07:50:02 Owen: but my mate spent several grand on lessons, and he's still only marginally better than me
07:50:10 Owen: so I suppose it cant have been all that bad
07:50:20 muris: of course
07:50:25 muris: i didn't say that
07:50:54 Owen: yeah I know, I was just commenting on my own situation lol
07:51:28 muris:
07:54:36 Owen: btw, nice telecaster, that is one cool guitar
07:55:24 muris: mean Ben's guitar?
07:56:35 Owen: http://www2.guitarmasterclass.net/solo-guitar/muris-varajic-alternate-picking/index.htm
07:56:41 Owen: the one in that vid ^
07:56:55 muris: oh,that's Musicman Axis
07:57:26 muris: but body has some similarity with tele after all
07:57:48 Owen: ah yeah
07:57:49 Owen: I see
07:57:54 Owen: its more curved at the bottom
07:58:03 muris: yep
07:58:39 Owen: looking at those light picks, they're expensive, do they last?
07:59:11 muris: you get diferent tips for it
07:59:18 muris: light,medium,heavy
07:59:35 muris: so you can change it at any time
08:00:01 Owen: ah cool, I've paid less than that for a guitar though xD
08:00:07 muris: and batteries work for how long...well it depends of how often you're playing it
08:00:29 muris: and you have few types of light pick
08:00:36 muris: regular light show
08:00:39 muris: metronome
08:00:49 muris: and profi serie
08:00:53 muris: check out the site
08:01:15 Owen: yeah I'm looking at it
08:01:21 muris: need a link?
08:02:10 Owen: nope
08:02:14 Owen: ah I see the tips now
08:02:15 Owen: cool
08:02:30 Owen: it just looked like the pick was one whole thing at the time
08:02:49 muris: yep
08:03:02 muris: looks like but it's not
08:03:24 muris: and you can change colours of enclosures too
08:04:19 Owen: hmm... cool. Bit gimmicky though I'll stick with the regular cheap picks I think
08:04:32 muris: cool tho
08:05:27 Owen: I guess It'd look pretty cool at darkly lighted gigs
08:05:39 muris: awesome
08:13:54 muris: see ya owen
08:13:57 muris: must go out
08:14:00 muris: take care
17:44:39 Owen: hey
17:44:47 Owen: *whip*
17:46:06 Pavel: hey there
17:46:19 Pavel: *slap*
17:46:30 Owen: hey
17:46:35 Owen: Gen's asleep
17:46:40 Pavel: hahahaq no probs
17:46:56 Gen: oh no no im here
17:47:05 Pavel:
17:47:08 Owen: I retract my previous statement
17:47:11 Owen:
17:47:14 Pavel: So owen did you listen to those other 2 songs?
17:47:18 Owen: yeah I did
17:47:28 Gen: i just heard the snap i was practicin
17:47:43 Owen: I didnt see a hugely drastic change in the vocal style, but it was quite good none the less
17:47:58 Owen: I just cant get over how much they all sound like each other in speed metal vocals, its a bit dull
17:48:04 Pavel: there is a change - definitely is!
17:48:15 Pavel: well it's like that in all genres
17:48:21 Pavel: black metal is also all the same
17:48:23 Pavel: so is power metal
17:48:26 Owen: yeah I cant disagree
17:48:35 Owen: thats why I'm primarily a Doom man
17:48:41 Gen: lol
17:48:42 Owen: I never know how the vocals are going to turn out
17:48:47 Pavel: hehe
17:48:53 Pavel: i like Instrumental stuff the most hahaha
17:48:58 Owen: because Doom isnt really a strict Genre
17:49:00 Gen: yeah me too
17:49:49 Owen: I dont like Instrumental stuff
17:49:50 Owen: xD
17:49:53 Owen: I dunno
17:50:01 Owen: I like having something to connect too
17:50:08 Owen: I feel vocals are a central part of that
17:50:08 Gen: hey pavel, have you ever tryed to play the song "technical difficutlies" by paul gilbert?
17:50:47 Pavel: no - i don't listen to him at all
17:51:17 Gen: actually this song is by racer x
17:51:21 Owen: I got my little brother to listen to Symphony X
17:51:28 Gen: its a pretty difficult song
17:51:29 Pavel: Gen yeah i know
17:51:42 Owen: personal win!
17:51:43 Pavel: that instrumental stuff is kinda old and borring already....IMO
17:51:43 Owen: xD
17:52:06 Gen: yeah, im gonna see symphony x and dream theater the 31 october
17:52:49 Owen: cool
17:52:55 Gen: yeah lol
17:53:03 Owen: I'm gonna see If I can see Machine Head in November
17:53:15 Owen: that'll be awesome
17:53:34 Pavel: i saw DT a month ago
17:53:47 Pavel: you know why i hate live concerts??
17:54:00 Owen: sore ears?
17:54:04 Pavel: because sound is always a big pile of crap and you can't hear anything
17:54:11 Gen: yeah thats true
17:54:16 Owen: its the ambience you go for
17:54:17 Owen: xD
17:54:19 Pavel: i want to hear each isntrument playing his role - not jsut a bunch of noise
17:54:22 Owen: or the moshpit
17:54:26 Gen: i also saw dt a few weeks ago, with megadeth
17:54:29 Owen: but I dont think you get those in speed do you
17:54:47 Pavel: so - i love listening to studio records the most
17:54:57 Gen: yeah
17:55:02 Pavel: i see Petrucci playing and i can't hear him playing
17:55:09 Owen: very much the purist
17:55:15 Pavel: i only see fingers moving - but i actually want to HEAR him! not the ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
17:55:23 Gen: lol
17:55:32 Pavel: no more live's for me
17:55:38 Owen: I can normally make out whats happening xD
17:55:41 Pavel: maybe Rhapsody if they ever come here
17:56:04 Pavel: i go to concert to enjoy it - not to work on making out what is going on
17:56:16 Owen:
17:56:19 Owen: fair enough
17:56:27 Owen: I enjoy it by killing myself in the pit
17:56:32 Pavel: hahahahahahahaha
17:56:43 Pavel: in the end the beer spilling all over the crow - AGRRRRRHHHH
17:56:45 Gen: lol
17:56:50 Pavel: crowd*
17:56:52 Owen: yeaaaah
17:56:56 Pavel: hate it
17:57:06 Owen: haha, do you play gigs?
17:57:18 Owen: or would you hate the crowd to not enjoy your music?
17:57:20 Owen:

17:59:25 Owen: Its official

18:00:13 Owen: big earphones?
18:00:16 Owen: all round
18:00:22 Pavel: no - very simple - make it A BIT lower
18:01:11 Owen: but then what happens to the folks at the back xD ?
18:02:02 Gen: when i saw dt and megadeth, megadeth was really really loud, but dt the sound with dt was pretty good
18:03:10 Gen: when i heard dave mustaine playing the first riff of the first song they played, i was like: hey, this must be a test or something lol
18:03:28 Gen: cuz it was really loud

18:13:12 Owen: yeah, well I want a fast way, every time I try its quite annoying
18:13:26 Owen: I end up slurring my words

18:41:47 rokchik: anyone around
18:42:00 rokchik: *meow*
18:43:13 rokchik: Hello Owen
18:43:32 Owen:
18:43:33 Owen: few
18:43:36 Owen: *phew*
18:43:38 Owen: even
18:43:43 Owen: it wasnt for letting me type there
18:43:47 Owen: >_<
18:43:53 Owen: hi
18:43:55 Owen:
18:43:59 rokchik: I C...what cha been up to
18:44:12 Owen: not a lot, been a bit bone idle to day
18:44:17 Owen: started working out again
18:44:23 Owen: for the first time in months xD
18:44:30 rokchik: I gotta start at that soon
18:44:55 rokchik: I was laid up a bit with a shoulder thing and been doing physio but not much els
18:45:07 Owen: I started, then I found out it was "pie n chips" for tea, I was like "wwhhat - I need salad!"
18:45:17 rokchik: LOL
18:45:46 rokchik: I C your gonna be a singer soon
18:45:59 Owen: I'm one anyway, In the loosest possible sense
18:46:27 Owen: I "screem" for "ice creem" in another band
18:46:35 rokchik: I can sing to some songs while playing but others...I'm hopless
18:46:43 rokchik: cool
18:46:51 Owen: I think half of it is having the nerve to do it
18:46:55 rokchik: is it screaming or growling
18:47:03 Owen: when your the singer you have peoples undying attention
18:47:08 rokchik: true
18:47:17 Owen: I dunno, what defines the two?
18:47:25 Owen: I'm a sorta throughty rasp
18:47:31 Owen: more growling I think
18:47:37 Owen: but I tend to use highs in practice
18:47:43 Owen: cos the PA is such I cant hear the lows
18:48:06 rokchik: I C
18:48:31 rokchik: I can sing while playing as long as the singing goes with the timing and melody of the stumming
18:48:49 Owen: I slurr my words when I try both at the same time
18:49:08 rokchik: like Wonderwall or Mary Janes last dance no problem singing...Laid by James or Come as you are screw up evertime
18:49:37 Owen: but yeah, in my new band I'm just doing cleans
18:49:40 rokchik: Actually if you can sing and play Come as you are by Nirvana at the same time your aces in my book
18:49:47 Owen: the other guitarist said he wanted the screamy stuff
18:49:56 Owen: and he didnt want to do cleans
18:49:59 rokchik: saves your voice at least
18:50:00 Owen: so It suited me fine
18:50:06 Owen: I'd rather no trash my voice
18:50:29 Owen: I only like one Nirvana song
18:50:40 rokchik: which one
18:50:43 Owen: I think I played Smells Like Teen Spirit endlessly last year
18:50:44 Owen: xD
18:50:53 rokchik: I hate that song
18:51:05 Owen: oh I loved it
18:51:09 rokchik: I find it annoying...very over played
18:51:11 Owen: emphasis on the past tense
18:51:18 Owen: I even played it backwards at the time
18:51:22 Owen: because I was "kewl"
18:51:36 Owen: so I could hear cobain screaming "I hate you"
18:51:48 rokchik: I think my fave would be either Polly or Where did you sleep last night from the unplugged album
18:51:55 Owen: ah
18:52:08 Owen: is the unplugged album the one with the rubbish sound quality?
18:52:27 Owen: its all tapes and stuff xD
18:52:33 Owen: no thats Silver, I think
18:52:45 rokchik: no it's the one they did live in NY
18:52:52 rokchik: for MTV
18:52:58 Owen: ah... MTV
18:52:59 Owen: :/
18:53:16 Owen: yeah I have the one with the boombox versions of everything
18:53:17 rokchik: Same sorta gig Eric Clapton did
18:53:19 Owen: it sounds awful
18:53:46 rokchik: yeah it was pretty horrible. I have all of Nirvanas stuff actually
18:53:51 Owen: they have a live cover of led zepplins "Heartbreaker"
18:53:58 Owen: and I love the bit at the end
18:54:03 Owen: where they run to a halt
18:54:10 rokchik: ah yes
18:54:22 Owen: and Kurt (or someone else) shouts "SOLO SOLO!"
18:54:28 Owen: and they start back up to do the solo
18:54:35 Owen: I thought it was so truely awful it was funny
18:54:42 rokchik: I was never a big fan of Nirvana to be honest
18:54:55 Owen: Me neither
18:55:01 Owen: I just got that record and hated it xD
18:55:20 Owen: hello again
18:55:23 Pavel: i am back..just can't get into bad...
18:55:40 Pavel: chatting with a friend of mine from germany on ICQ and there is no way i can get off this chair
18:55:49 rokchik: About the only Seattle bands I really liked were Soundgarden, Alice in Chains, and a teeny tiny bit of Pearl Jam
18:55:53 rokchik: Hello Pavel
18:56:07 Owen: I dont listen to any of them
18:56:16 Pavel: hey Rokchick!
18:56:18 Owen: although I like to think I have a very wide musical spectrum
18:56:23 Owen: it could be disputed xD
18:56:58 rokchik: Soundgarden was good in it's day...Spoonman and black hole sun are my faves
18:57:10 Owen: ah cool
18:57:24 Owen: I'm still listening to the stuff Pavel gave me earlier
18:57:32 rokchik: Chris Corneil has a very interesting voice
18:57:43 rokchik: ah cool...Pavels stuff rocks
18:58:04 Owen: oh yeah, I've heard a lot about him, never heard any of his music though - Corneil not Pavel xD

19:23:25 muris: lol
19:23:36 muris: it's odd
19:23:46 Owen: that'd become annoying
19:24:10 Owen: you should see if you can save lessons, if its in your own best interests to not have to wait thirty minutes to see them every time >_<
19:24:12 muris: suer
19:24:20 muris: hahaha
