GMC Forum _ CHILL OUT _ More Of My Bands Live Stuff

Posted by: AdamB Mar 18 2015, 06:48 PM

So I make a habit now of recording every gig my covers band does on a Zoom H2N portable recorder, as it helps me listen back and figure out what needs work.

One of the 'features' of the band is that we put in ridiculous shred solos where-ever we can as there's not a lot of bands around that play in this style so it sort of separates us out a bit so that people remember us.

It's not overly musical, and if anyone has heard any of my stuff before it's pretty much more of the same, but thought I'd share one I recorded the other night.

It's pretty much a straight cover of "The Hives - Hate To Say I Told You So" up until about 2:20 when it just goes mental.

Haha yea man. I think my moto is "Shred solos where once there were no shred solos". The more out of place it is the better.

Cool cover Adam, I like this song!
Love the drums groove in this one. I think it is a very good idea to insert crazy solos in the songs and improvise. After all, those are live covers and it is way more fun to listen to the band improvise and have fun live. Do you have more recordings or maybe some videos from the gigs?

Thanks yea I like doing the improvising thing, makes each gig a bit different, even if I tend to sound quite samey.

I don't have any videos, but there's some other recordings of the band on my soundcloud that I've posted before;
