You're already awesome audiopaal. You're the melody machine lol. You just throw out cool melody after cool melody and write great songs. My advice is slow down a bit and let me catch up

Thanks a lot man, I really appreciate it
...and thank you for giving me the coolest nick name ever; Melody Machine
By the way, I think you play really good yourself, at least on the collabs I've heard

Great page as well. Very inspiring. Think I may read this page thoroughly.
Al DiMeola had some amazing advice on alternate picking and picking in general. Some great exercise ideas.

LOl i love this one by spinal tap
“Start playing loud when you’re young, and you’ll be one step ahead of the game. If you start off playing soft, it will get you into a lot of bad habits. Terrible, terrible, habits. Look at these jazz people. Of course they play soft. It’s a trick so you can’t hear them.”—Nigel Tufnel

Some cool tips in there- but not sure if i'll be using them all...like circle picking...not really my thing (atleast not right now anyway )
Cheers for sharing!
Posted by: audiopaal Apr 5 2008, 10:50 AM
I don't think it's posible to use them all, people are different, but still a good way to pick up a few tricks
Posted by: SinoMan Apr 5 2008, 12:41 PM
Great link audiopaal. But what exactly is the play loud thingy supposed to mean?

What about Dragonforce then?
Posted by: audiopaal Apr 5 2008, 05:09 PM
It's the Guitar Player from Spinal Tap saying that, just making a funny quote
They invented the 11 on the volume knob, haha

Well, the talk about Dragonforce being bad Live is somewhat exaggerated as I've also seen live footage where they play really well, so..
