07:18:07 muris: Hey Owen
07:18:58 muris: *slap*
07:19:25 Owen: hi
07:19:35 Owen: woah, my browser went a bit funny there :P
07:19:51 Owen: how are you today?
07:20:25 muris: all fine
07:20:27 muris: you?
07:21:29 Owen: I'm good, pc's crashing a bit though
07:21:48 muris: ahh
07:21:54 muris: that's not good
07:22:04 muris: is it xp?
07:22:17 Owen: yeah
07:22:41 Owen: gotta restart gimme a second
07:22:44 muris: you have nice spam/virus defence?
07:22:46 muris: ok
07:23:49 Owen: thats better
07:23:53 Owen: sorry it was just really laggy
07:24:29 Owen: I see EMI has been sold
07:25:34 muris: yeah?
07:25:37 muris: to who?
07:26:10 Owen: a private company called... Terra Firma
07:26:53 Owen: huge amounts of money involved :p
07:27:06 muris: as always :)
07:27:59 Owen: yeah, its strange, EMI have been going for ages now, suddenly now just to dissolve into part of a private company
07:29:06 Owen: but yeah, what are you up to? anything interesting? :)
07:29:26 muris: yeah,but EMI's people will still rule the company I guess
07:29:36 muris: only owner is changed I think
07:30:09 Owen: apparently they were in debt
07:30:18 muris: odd
07:30:27 muris: such a huge company
07:30:36 muris: digital age kills everybody
07:30:46 muris: bigger the most
07:31:01 Owen: I dunno, album sales have stayed constant here in the UK
07:31:18 Owen: only singles sales have dropped, but who really wants to buy singles, it seems pointless
07:31:20 muris: it's time for indie stuff
07:31:50 muris: record companies have been taking a lot for a long time
07:32:04 muris: ofering not too much tho
07:32:53 Owen: hmm, yeah I suppose digital means artists can lay claim to a bigger part of the money section of things
07:33:17 Owen: I cant see music in shops dying out though
07:33:52 muris: yeah
07:34:00 muris: problems are more deep
07:34:06 Owen: theres a greater convenience too it, plus it feels nicer to have something like a cd in your hands
07:34:20 muris: of course
07:34:39 muris: but indie artists are releasing CDs as well
07:34:44 muris: me per example
07:35:00 muris: not saying that I'm a major one
07:35:10 muris: butthere are millions of them outside
07:35:37 Owen: :P its got easier to produce music I reckon, but its still a relatively skilled thing to do
07:35:39 muris: and they realized that record companies are not needed tahat much anymore
07:36:16 Owen: I mean, I can record something relatively easily, but thats not guarantee of it sounding good lol
07:36:24 Owen: no*
07:36:28 muris: course
07:36:41 muris: but you don't need record company to sound good
07:37:01 Owen: yep, they're really more to get you noticed
07:37:10 muris: they were
07:37:21 muris: now you have all idiependent
07:37:25 Owen: I think most relatively large artists get most of their money from touring now?
07:38:18 muris: producers,marketing agencies,web promotion etc
07:38:24 muris: less expensive
07:39:00 muris: some from touring,some from tantiems,as we call it
07:39:08 Owen: tantiems?
07:39:10 muris: copy rights
07:39:15 muris: sort of
07:39:35 Owen: like making money from having your music as a soundtrack to something ?
07:39:50 muris: or on TV,radio
07:40:06 muris: they have to pay to composer/band
07:40:38 Owen: ah, yeah, but then theres the internet radio stations now, I dont think a lot of them actively pay musicians if they use their songs
07:41:01 muris: some pay,some not
07:41:08 Owen: I dont know what the in's and out's of the whole thing are though
07:41:30 muris: thing is too complex for sure
07:43:19 Owen: btw, your website photo of yourself is pretty spooky, did you mean for it to be like that? :P
07:48:26 muris: lol
07:48:29 muris: no idea
07:48:35 muris: it just went that way
07:48:45 muris: tho I'm not scary guy really
07:48:48 muris: :)
07:50:03 Owen: :D maybe its just the whole blue theme :)
07:50:14 muris: might be ;)
07:53:40 Owen: sorry, I'm not talking much, I'm just admiring the stuff on your website :p
07:54:40 muris: thanks :)
07:55:26 Owen: woah, how'd it feel to play in huge 10 thousand people crowds?
07:56:26 muris: it was 80.000 few nights ago :)
07:56:35 Owen: seriously?
07:56:37 muris: aha
07:56:43 Owen: woah, thats the stuff dreams are made of xD
07:56:49 muris: stadium,olypic
07:57:02 muris: olympic*
07:57:23 dynamite_dude: hey all
07:57:33 Owen: woah, I'd be seriously worried about messing up, thats like a huge amount of pressure
07:57:37 Owen: hey!
07:57:43 dynamite_dude: woah, you haven't passed out yet? oO
07:57:52 Owen: me?
07:59:00 dynamite_dude: aye
07:59:08 dynamite_dude: at the rate you were going.. :p
07:59:18 Owen: I've had ten hours sleep :P
07:59:36 dynamite_dude: yeah, 10 - 12 is becoming the norm for me too
08:00:02 dynamite_dude: 80,000, heh? :o
08:00:21 Owen: I needed to let the beer wear off, my theory was going crazy :D
08:00:44 dynamite_dude: well, you got it third time 'round!
08:00:59 Owen: :P
08:01:27 Owen: better than the guitarists in my band, they dont even know what key they're in xD
08:01:59 Owen: I asked one the other night, and he was like
08:02:03 Owen: "whats a key?"
08:02:16 dynamite_dude: ouch
08:02:18 Owen: I about died ¬__¬
08:02:46 dynamite_dude: I'd think it was forgiveable if he didn't know the key.. but what a key is.. lol
08:02:58 dynamite_dude: what stuff is the band playing?
08:03:08 Owen: metal xD
08:03:50 dynamite_dude: sweet.
08:04:04 Owen: well it would be, if they knew actually what to do :P
08:04:55 dynamite_dude: well.. you can't have everything! :p
08:05:07 Owen: the drummers like miles ahead of their ability already, its worrying
08:06:09 dynamite_dude: that's great though.. it's near impossible to find a good metal drummer around here.. let alone a good rock drummer
08:06:18 dynamite_dude: then you get the guys who think they can play metal guitar
08:06:22 dynamite_dude: me in cluded :p
08:06:28 Owen: :P
08:06:51 Owen: GMC sure would be interesting if everyone lived in the same locality
08:08:18 dynamite_dude: haha, aye
08:08:20 Owen: although the instructors might find it irritating with all the newbies like myself knocking away at their doors asking for help xD
08:08:46 dynamite_dude: "go away, you're drunk" "but I know what key I'm in...!"
08:08:47 dynamite_dude: lmao
08:09:05 Owen: haha
08:09:47 Owen: out of interest, where are you from anyway? :P
08:10:22 dynamite_dude: london, uk
08:10:28 dynamite_dude: yourself?
08:10:35 Owen: Scotchland xD
08:10:49 dynamite_dude: ahh nice, a friend of mine from uni lives up there
08:10:55 dynamite_dude: been once too.. like the place!
08:11:26 Owen: heh, its alright, bits of it are a bit shabby though
08:11:46 dynamite_dude: aye
08:11:57 dynamite_dude: makes a change from all this concrete
08:12:38 Owen: :P, I figured you had to live somewhere in the UK if you kept on saying "aye" :D
08:13:10 dynamite_dude: s'just habitual :p
08:14:57 muris: guess you're in advance here guys :)
08:15:20 Owen: hmm?
08:15:28 muris: both from UK
08:16:05 dynamite_dude: well, don't feel left out, Mr Olympic Stadium player :D , I feel left out if anything :p
08:16:14 Owen: :D
08:16:23 dynamite_dude: where are you from again, Muris?
08:16:31 muris: Sarajevo
08:16:58 muris: hope you heard of
08:17:00 muris: :)
08:17:05 dynamite_dude: aha! yes, yes of course I have!
08:17:07 Owen: I wouldnt want to live there :( it's a bit unstable isnt it?
08:17:28 muris: stable for 10 ten years
08:17:31 dynamite_dude: well I've lived here all my life.. so I'm a bit used to London...
08:17:36 muris: war stoped 15 year4s ago
08:18:02 muris: or 13
08:18:04 muris: same thing
08:18:07 dynamite_dude: :p
08:18:15 muris: ;)
08:18:27 dynamite_dude: can't imagine though.. how are things in the country at the moment?
08:18:37 muris: fine
08:18:46 muris: politics sucks like everywhere
08:18:53 dynamite_dude: indeed!
08:19:00 muris: :)
08:19:26 Owen: they're quite interesting in Scotchland at the moment :P
08:19:28 dynamite_dude: in london they're thinking of electing a clown as mayor.. eugh. met him once when he came to my school.. he would not shut up
08:19:39 Owen: BORIS!
08:19:42 dynamite_dude: indeedio
08:20:05 dynamite_dude: everybody seems to get a laugh out of him, but I just can't seem to manage
08:20:09 Owen: guys an idiot, but he's probably better than Ken :P
08:20:38 dynamite_dude: lmao.
08:21:06 dynamite_dude: muris, how'd you get to play at the olympic stadium? what was the occasion?
08:21:42 muris: it was a masive event/concert
08:22:02 muris: regarding to 600 years of Islam in Bosnia
08:22:16 muris: I know what you're thinking
08:22:17 muris: :)
08:22:26 Owen: do you?
08:22:27 Owen: :P
08:22:30 muris: lol
08:22:32 muris: joke
08:22:32 Owen: what am I thinking?
08:22:32 dynamite_dude: hehe
08:22:37 Owen: :P
08:22:40 muris: it was awesome indeed
08:22:43 dynamite_dude: feel let down now, owen? :p
08:22:49 muris: great vibes
08:23:03 muris: and stagemlight etc
08:23:06 dynamite_dude: I can't even imagine how it must've been.. it's just such a great event
08:23:23 Owen: I can imagine, with *envy*
08:23:29 dynamite_dude: hehe
08:23:42 muris: that's ok tho :)
08:23:58 muris: horible stuff in UK lately
08:24:08 Owen: musically?
08:24:11 muris: no
08:24:11 dynamite_dude: lmao
08:24:17 muris: neam of terorism
08:24:21 dynamite_dude: aye, we know what you mean
08:24:25 muris: but it's such a mess
08:24:25 Owen: meh
08:24:28 Owen: its all hype
08:24:44 muris: like Islam terorism
08:24:54 dynamite_dude: it's not nice.. I was in prague and it all started happening while I was gone.. airport's being shut-down, etc
08:24:58 Owen: Islaming extremist counted for a total of 0.5% of all the terrorist attacks accross Europe in the last decade
08:25:03 muris: there;s no religion in conection with terorism
08:25:07 dynamite_dude: and granted that I absolutely hate flying :l
08:25:30 muris: they SAY they are doing it in name of Islam
08:25:30 Owen: well obviously, I'm just saying people who take a radical stance on what something means
08:25:36 muris: but it's totaly wrong
08:25:53 Owen: exactly, I dont condone it, but the whole thing has been blown out of proportion
08:26:00 muris: yeah
08:26:02 muris: too much
08:26:05 dynamite_dude: sad thing is, you can't just get rid of these people, aye
08:26:21 dynamite_dude: if only there was a button somewhere..
08:26:39 muris: get rid of who?
08:26:40 Owen: well thats what we seem to think we can do
08:27:06 dynamite_dude: the idiots who actually take part in these attacks
08:27:08 Owen: we forget that these people are integrated into our society as much as we are, but still we go and bomb innocents
08:27:27 muris: yeah
08:27:40 muris: everybody make mistakes
08:27:52 Owen: I refuse to believe that 1/40th of the population of Iraq were terrorists
08:28:02 dynamite_dude: oO
08:28:12 muris: of course
08:28:13 muris: I mean
08:28:30 muris: guys that kills a man in NY for money
08:28:33 muris: same thing
08:29:02 muris: terorism is all around
08:29:07 muris: diferent shapes and names
08:29:38 dynamite_dude: aye
08:29:49 dynamite_dude: it's generalised too much
08:29:58 Owen: yeah, its sad that we live in societies were people are prepared to do these things
08:30:06 muris: yeah
08:30:17 muris: it goes from school,street,TV etc
08:31:02 muris: main problem is the name
08:31:12 muris: Islamic terorism
08:31:26 muris: Islam forbids every act of violence
08:31:34 muris: like every religion
08:31:43 muris: it's bettle of east and west
08:31:49 muris: not that much of religions
08:32:00 Owen: yeah, so does christianity, but there was still the crusades =/
08:32:11 muris: yeah
08:32:22 muris: that is a black chapter for sure
08:32:26 dynamite_dude: a lot of things [most] are just bastardized by the media
08:32:27 Owen: i think its this concept of doing something "for the greater good"
08:32:31 muris: but it's all done by man
08:32:36 muris: not holly book
08:32:36 dynamite_dude: but you can't have much control over that at all..
08:33:34 muris: man is the sinner,in every way :)
08:34:43 Owen: hmm, there will always be war and it will probably be our undoing
08:34:51 muris: yeah
08:34:55 muris: sad but true
08:35:54 dynamite_dude: so... anybody around here know what a guitar is? ;)
08:36:06 Owen: :P
08:36:08 dynamite_dude: sorry I just hear too much on the topic daily.. :p
08:36:32 muris: yeah
08:36:32 Owen: I hear a guitar is one of those wooden things with random bits of metal attached
08:36:37 muris: just wanted to sat the same
08:36:39 muris: :)
08:36:41 Owen: makes a funny noise if you hit it in the right way
08:36:43 dynamite_dude: percussion I've heard.. haha
08:36:52 dynamite_dude: ouch, same line of thought
08:36:55 dynamite_dude: :p
08:37:34 dynamite_dude: still need to lay it off for another day
08:37:46 dynamite_dude: fretting hand's wrist is still messed up
08:37:47 dynamite_dude: >.<
08:38:06 Owen: ouch, how'd you manage that?
08:38:09 muris: is it getting better?
08:38:33 dynamite_dude: yeah it is, had it several time's actually
08:38:44 dynamite_dude: it's either that I don't play with a relaxed hand
08:39:11 dynamite_dude: or that I don't warm-up properly, race to the fast stuff... or a combination of the two
08:39:18 dynamite_dude: it's a real downer, but my fault in the end
08:40:06 dynamite_dude: I get it whenever I come back to give a real go at serious practice.. so 6 hours / day actual practicing, or whatever. I do that for 2, 3 days.. and by then the pain's already there.. always same part of the wrist
08:40:22 Owen: I normally just go straight to the fast stuff, but I think I have pretty relaxed hand positioning
08:40:54 dynamite_dude: just a bit tired of not having made much progress [learning song-wise] in the last few months and would like to start a band when I get back to uni this year
08:41:37 muris: hope you'll be back in shape again :)
08:41:41 muris: must go now guys
08:41:46 muris: have some job to do
08:41:52 muris: talk later
08:41:57 muris: ;)
08:42:08 dynamite_dude: thanks man, take care!
08:42:14 dynamite_dude: ah, timing.
08:42:42 Owen: :P
08:43:04 Owen: although I do have majorly wierd wrists :D
08:43:41 dynamite_dude: such luck :p
08:43:54 Owen: seriously, they protrude
08:44:21 dynamite_dude: hm.. so does that make holding the neck easier for you?
08:44:27 dynamite_dude: well, I guess you have nothing to compare to
08:45:12 Owen: haha not really
08:45:18 Owen: but every time someone notices they are like
08:45:20 Owen: Ewwwww
08:46:19 dynamite_dude: lol, such critics
08:46:49 dynamite_dude: I don't really think it's bad to any extent, and anybody who says so has nothing better to say
08:47:14 Owen: but I have majorly sucky circulation too, haha, my hands swell in winter, so sometimes I cant play guitar
08:48:04 dynamite_dude: your hands swell? hm..
08:48:15 Owen: literally
08:48:21 Owen: the fingers become all puffy
08:48:25 dynamite_dude: I was starting to think my circulation was bad in my hands, but definately not to that extent
08:48:35 Owen: my knuckles go purple and occassionally the skin bursts open
08:48:35 dynamite_dude: is this even at home?
08:48:41 dynamite_dude: yeouch.
08:48:53 Owen: if I use keyboard too much in winter, it happens
08:49:34 dynamite_dude: it can get quite cold up there, heh?
08:50:47 Owen: my room = tiny radiator xD
08:51:02 dynamite_dude: hehe
08:52:06 dynamite_dude: what pisses me off too is that.. well, I can't believe I only just figured this out [or perhaps it's slight paranoia, lmao], but I think I'm putting way too much effort into my bends, by not using leverage at all
08:52:51 dynamite_dude: like whenever I try to play fast-bendy parts, i.e. first solo first bar, mr crowley.. they're meant to be the easiest section of the solo, yet turn out to be the hardest
08:53:13 Owen: :P your not using levarage?
08:54:15 Owen: e*
08:55:45 dynamite_dude: well, take any bend
08:56:12 dynamite_dude: you need to put your thumb over the top, and twist your forearm
08:56:36 dynamite_dude: using leverage off the neck/index finger area
08:57:00 dynamite_dude: I, on the other hand, don't twist, but just push straight up with my fingers
08:57:27 dynamite_dude: very subtle difference in technique.. but it seems to make a difference :/ vibrato at the top of big bends is a bitch
08:58:05 Owen: is it humanly possible to bend at the first fret?
08:58:46 dynamite_dude: .. uhuh :p
08:58:57 dynamite_dude: a semitone or so :p
08:59:30 Owen: :P only on the low e
09:00:26 dynamite_dude: just tried it on the high e
09:00:36 dynamite_dude: .. shredded my skin, but it worked, just :p
09:01:34 Owen: If you dont twist you dont catch the string right I notice
09:01:40 Owen: thats only for bends up
09:01:43 Owen: bends down seem easy
09:02:44 dynamite_dude: aye, and it adds to irregular vibrato, makes it much harder than it should be
09:03:03 dynamite_dude: so I guess I use a hybrid between the two.. no simple explanation, but I have to 'untrain' that bad habit
09:03:22 Owen: I find myself untraining stuff all the time
09:03:37 Owen: thats the bad thing about being self taught
09:04:51 dynamite_dude: hm, I've had more than a few lessons, but teachers kept changing
09:05:08 dynamite_dude: most of my primary stuff is self taught though
09:06:22 Owen: like, how many fingers to you finger pick with, if you want to cross say 5 strings
09:07:27 dynamite_dude: everything minues the pinky? I never use finger picking though :l
09:07:38 dynamite_dude: really depends on what I'm playing
09:07:47 Owen: I use all 5 :P
09:10:44 Owen: which is strange because everyone always tells me not to use the pinky xD
09:11:00 dynamite_dude: don't see why you shouldn't
09:11:09 dynamite_dude: I mean, it's there to be used
09:11:19 dynamite_dude: I don't have any power in my pinky, on the right hand though
09:14:52 Owen: I have decided Reaper is so cool
09:15:27 Owen: I have the wierdest intro ever xD
09:16:04 Owen: I took my voice down 5 semitones and added a synth in the backgroud
09:16:18 Owen: and then started spurting random stuff from that truthism website
09:17:22 Owen: now I just need a drumbeat for the stoner rock riffing to come next
09:17:23 Owen: :P
09:17:27 dynamite_dude: lol nice
09:17:29 Owen: and I have a phobia of drum machines xD
09:17:34 dynamite_dude: never used the thing
09:17:39 dynamite_dude: it's all good :p
09:18:06 dynamite_dude: ouch my ears just got blasted
09:18:31 dynamite_dude: have to turn up speakers extra loud on films, for some reason. and pressed back by mistake.. started playing hellraiser.. very loudly
09:22:10 Owen: :P
09:22:27 Owen: I was sending someone some random math metal the other night
09:22:34 Owen: it was like 2 in the morning
09:22:46 Owen: when suddenly winamp opened and started playing it really loud
09:22:51 Owen: I was like "shit shit shit"
09:23:01 Owen: I didnt even where it was coming from
09:24:50 Owen: but yeah, its pretty mental when your playing psycroptic at 2 am xD
09:25:54 dynamite_dude: hahaha
09:26:11 dynamite_dude: math metal.. y'know sikth?
09:26:26 Owen: nah?
09:26:30 dynamite_dude: doh.
09:26:33 dynamite_dude: nvm
09:26:47 Owen: I dont listen to it very often, but someone was spouting about dillinger
09:26:55 Owen: so I just sent them some psycroptic
09:28:59 dynamite_dude: hm, heard DEP.. I'll look up psycroptic
09:32:54 Owen: The Scepter Of The Ancients is their best album
09:33:49 The Uncreator: Anyone here?
09:35:31 Owen: meh, stick around? :P
09:36:00 dynamite_dude: haha
09:36:16 dynamite_dude: cheers for the suggestion
09:37:35 Owen: :P
09:37:45 Owen: you like them?
09:40:17 dynamite_dude: well, I haven't ventured out to listen to them yet :p
09:40:25 dynamite_dude: I just wouldn't have known which album to pick
09:42:24 Owen: i think its technically classified as tech death
09:42:31 Owen: but it sounds very mathy to me
09:46:47 dynamite_dude: I don't really get wound up in the description, if it's good it is GOOD.
09:46:48 dynamite_dude: :p
09:51:29 Owen: http://www.myspace.com/psycroptic
09:51:34 Owen: always worth a listen first
09:57:27 dynamite_dude: thanks
10:16:57 dynamite_dude: yeah I know what you mean by the math metal sound
10:17:15 dynamite_dude: I guess the death part is due to the vocals?
10:20:43 Wallimann: Hi guys!
10:22:29 dynamite_dude: yo
10:22:34 dynamite_dude: ffs. haha
10:22:47 dynamite_dude: yo, hope you don't leave as fast as the last one :p
10:23:00 dynamite_dude: User Wallimann has entered this room. [Wallimann] Hi guys! User Wallimann has logged out. [dynamite_dude] yo [dynamite_dude] ffs. haha
10:23:01 Tank: hmm?
10:23:25 Tank: I think some of the seniors have been having problems with chat
10:23:31 dynamite_dude: ah.
10:24:11 dynamite_dude: anyway, sup? :)
10:24:27 Tank: Oh just trying to avoid work
10:24:29 Tank: :)
10:24:41 dynamite_dude: awesome :d
10:25:58 Tank: sorry if I'll be typing a bit slow. Can't completely avoid work!!
10:26:23 dynamite_dude: no problemo, me and owen look back to check chat now and again, whilest doing other things too
10:26:32 dynamite_dude: at least that's the impression I get! :p
10:27:51 Owen: Eee. I missed people! hey tank!
10:28:35 Tank: Heya Owen
10:29:22 dynamite_dude: how important would you say keeping your hands relaxed is in playing?
10:29:47 Tank: I wrote about this on a thread somewhere
10:30:19 dynamite_dude: oh? sorry, I don't really read a lot of that stuff.
10:30:23 dynamite_dude: one sec.
10:31:09 Tank: http://www.guitarmasterclass.net/guitar_forum/index.php?showtopic=5412
10:31:42 dynamite_dude: I believe I have it, the one about breaking a plateu?
10:31:58 dynamite_dude: plateau*
10:32:10 dynamite_dude: hm, aye, the same
10:32:33 Tank: thats the one. Relaxed playing is the key to good playing
10:33:24 dynamite_dude: hm, was thinking about its relation to prevention of injury
10:33:48 dynamite_dude: it's just that I always manage to injure my fretting hand's wrist in serious practice sessions
10:33:53 dynamite_dude: and the pain stays for days
10:34:05 dynamite_dude: so either not warming up properly, or not playing in a relaxed way
10:34:46 Tank: It could be due to the stress that you are putting on the wrist. Are you trying to practice far above your natural limit?
10:36:19 Tank: You need to be careful with it. There isn't much natural muscle in the wrist, so any stress that you put it under will be carried by the tendons. And if you get tendonitus, game over
10:38:04 dynamite_dude: I'm definately trying to go further than I have before
10:38:12 dynamite_dude: usually I just play around, learning riffs, etc
10:38:27 dynamite_dude: but then I went into a phase of playing the alt picking exercises for 4 - 5 hours
10:38:34 Tank: Warming and stretching your wrist will help
10:38:36 dynamite_dude: probably a bit too much of a jump?
10:38:45 dynamite_dude: ah yes, I do that, ala rock discipline
10:38:57 Tank: If you are getting pain for 2 days, you are doing something seriously wrong
10:39:06 dynamite_dude: well, yes, 2 days +
10:39:22 dynamite_dude: the thing is, previous guitar teachers haven't noticed anything odd about the way I play
10:39:28 Tank: It might sound weird, but Aikido has wrist stretches that can help
10:39:52 dynamite_dude: oh, really. I'll try look that up, they always help
10:40:14 dynamite_dude: I try to do petrucci's fret stretching chords in his warm-up.. if you know what I'm talking about
10:40:22 dynamite_dude: that always stretches the part of the wrist that ends up in pain
10:41:42 Tank: http://www.bodymindandmodem.com/KiEx/KiEx.html The first three, kotegaeshi, nikyo, and sankyo
10:41:43 dynamite_dude: sorry, internet problems
10:42:25 dynamite_dude: cheers, will try it out when it fully heals
10:42:27 Tank: no worries
10:42:49 dynamite_dude: never had any pain in my right.. always been the left
10:43:05 dynamite_dude: bit of a downer really, if you want to put the work in, but just end up injuring yourself
10:44:40 Tank: Remember that you are training your body to do something new. Athletes need to rest or they overstress too
10:45:55 Tank: But if you play within your limits, you won't stress the joints
10:46:03 dynamite_dude: aye
10:46:11 dynamite_dude: I just don't know my limits, that's the problem
10:46:24 dynamite_dude: I can sometimes play for hours, and be fine
10:46:32 dynamite_dude: other times, it's different
10:46:56 dynamite_dude: I simply can't pinpoint the problem.. and I'd like to advance as quickly as possible, therefore putting more time into it, it's hit or miss really
10:47:27 Tank: generally a metronome will show you your limit
10:47:49 Tank: if your fingers can't hit the notes in strict time, you are beyond your limit.
10:48:27 Tank: Therefore you will naturally contract your muscles, to try and eek that speed out of them
10:48:33 Tank: but it doesn't work that way.
10:49:02 dynamite_dude: it's actually ironic that [most recently anyway] the injury happened when I went back to using a metronome for everything
10:49:14 dynamite_dude: slowing it down, bumping it by 3 bpm, going back, etc
10:49:31 dynamite_dude: I don't know if I just have a weak wrist or what
10:50:53 Tank: Tell me if I'm right here.
10:51:15 Tank: You sit down to practice, you get the picking pattern, and start ratcheting up the metronome
10:51:24 Tank: Eventually you hit "the wall"
10:51:28 dynamite_dude: aye
10:51:34 dynamite_dude: so I move it back down
10:51:36 Tank: so you go down 10, play for about 1 min
10:51:45 Tank: then start cranking up again
10:51:51 dynamite_dude: completely right so far
10:51:55 Tank: Right
10:52:05 Tank: You aren't spending enough time at the slow spped
10:52:19 Tank: you need to do about 1000 reps at the slower speed
10:52:27 dynamite_dude: aha.
10:52:27 Tank: then start moving up
10:52:33 dynamite_dude: that'd make perfect sense
10:52:43 dynamite_dude: hence the over-stressed wrist
10:53:05 Tank: Then, the next day, after you've rested, your Wall will move, because you'll have built up some finger muscle
10:53:44 Tank: Don't do the reps, then you don't get the finger muscle
10:54:05 dynamite_dude: however, it brings me to think.. exactly how much is the wrist involved in this? it seems to be more about the fingers themselves.. which wouldn't explain such an injury on the wrist
10:54:53 Tank: Make a fist
10:55:00 Tank: tight
10:55:13 Tank: Now try and rotate your wrist. Can you?
10:55:41 dynamite_dude: with some discomfort, yes
10:55:47 Tank: Now relax your hand completely. Try to rotate your wrist
10:56:09 dynamite_dude: sir, you have made a point :)
10:56:13 Tank: Should be much easier
10:56:22 dynamite_dude: aye, it all makes sense now
10:57:05 dynamite_dude: thanks again, I reckon that was precisely my problem! well done for getting to the root of it ever so quickly!
10:57:09 Tank: When you tense your fingers, your wrist gets pressure put on it
10:58:03 Tank: I know it's a pain to play slowly, when you just want to burn
10:58:21 Tank: but there is reason behind it
10:58:33 Tank: And you do get better, and faster, by playing slowly
10:58:56 Tank: more finger muscle, less sore wrist!
10:59:00 dynamite_dude: excellent :)
10:59:14 dynamite_dude: how's the guitar going for you then?
11:00:52 Tank: I'm trying to practice more. It's weird, because I'm so close to my goals, but it's that last 20% that is taking 80% of the time to get
11:01:47 dynamite_dude: heh, sounds frustrating
11:03:13 Tank: can be :)
11:03:36 Tank: But I've got to a decent level, I'm able to quickly learn some good stuff
11:04:24 Tank: I just need to take about 3 months off work, and practice 10 hours a day, and I'll be able to do what I want :D
11:04:29 dynamite_dude: and how long has this taken you?
11:04:31 dynamite_dude: haha
11:05:21 Tank: Only about 20 years
11:05:30 Tank: lol
11:05:38 dynamite_dude: .. :p
11:06:01 dynamite_dude: so what bands you into playing then?
11:06:16 dynamite_dude: or an example of what you're aspiring towards would be.. ?
11:06:38 Tank: To be honest, I only really started practicing seriously a few years back. And even then, I wouldn't have the time to put in 10 hours a day, so it will naturally take me longer
11:07:43 Tank: As far as my aspirations. mainly, I just like to be able to hear something, and go "that's doable". And play it
11:08:13 Tank: For instance, in January, I learned Eruption, and stuck it into the set, and started gigging with it
11:08:22 dynamite_dude: I see, but you must have some band/s that you'd often jam out to, which would match your technical level
11:08:34 dynamite_dude: you just learnt it, just like that?
11:08:43 Tank: Took me 2 weeks
11:08:47 dynamite_dude: nice
11:08:53 Tank: But to performance level
11:09:49 dynamite_dude: impressive stuff, I get flashes of my friend trying [and failing] to play that, hehe
11:11:49 Tank: I've always been honest with the playing level, so I can't "play" a song, unless I'd be happy to play it in front of a live audience
11:12:56 dynamite_dude: indeed, I think the same
11:13:21 dynamite_dude: you can play the odd part of a song, and you'll impress people around you, but I'd never consider then going to play that at an actual gig
11:13:27 dynamite_dude: just.. not up to standards
11:13:31 dynamite_dude: could be so much better, etc
11:14:16 Tank: Well, I know so many players who can play "the start of" layla, or "the tapping bit" from One, etc
11:14:48 Tank: which is fine for practice
11:15:06 dynamite_dude: completely with you here
11:15:14 Tank: but I got caught out by this years ago
11:15:48 Tank: So I knuckle down and play the whole damn thing, or else I can't play it yet
11:16:33 dynamite_dude: damn straight! reminds me of the same friend who can just about do the tapping section to eruption .. but the rest? heh :p
11:17:59 Tank: I've wanted to do "Serana" by Jason Becker, but I think I'll try Eugenes Trick Bag as my next project. But I can't play it, until I can on stage :)
11:18:15 dynamite_dude: hehe, of course
11:18:17 dynamite_dude: hey Slammer
11:18:23 Slammer: !!!
11:18:29 Tank: hey slammer
11:18:32 Slammer: !!!
11:18:37 dynamite_dude: been put-off a bit by sweeps, but that song's an exception :p
11:18:55 dynamite_dude: I think someone's excited :p
11:19:00 Slammer: !!!
11:19:08 Slammer: you don't like sweeps?
11:19:22 dynamite_dude: you started the !!! before I sqeaked about that :p
11:19:34 dynamite_dude: I've seen them use tastelessly a lot..
11:19:38 dynamite_dude: used*
11:19:43 Slammer: or overused
11:19:44 dynamite_dude: but they have their place
11:19:48 dynamite_dude: both
11:20:15 dynamite_dude: when you start placing them in classic rock solo's.. eugh
11:20:23 dynamite_dude: and that was down in camden! >.<
11:20:24 Slammer: I like it when people use Sweeps to compliment a solo
11:20:36 Slammer: but only like one or two
11:21:05 dynamite_dude: aye, it's situational really
11:21:10 Slammer: but I don't like it when the Whole solo is pretty much Sweeping
11:21:19 Slammer: are you from Ireland?
11:21:24 dynamite_dude: agreed, unless, it just so happens to click
11:21:29 dynamite_dude: haha, no, london uk

11:23:33 dynamite_dude: where you from, slammer
11:23:34 dynamite_dude: ?
11:23:38 Slammer: but I'm actually from US
11:23:42 dynamite_dude: aha
11:23:45 Owen: i was born in an exciting place called West Lothian! xD
11:23:49 dynamite_dude: lol, I wouldn't have guessed that one actually
11:23:57 dynamite_dude: ah, west lothian, I remember it well
11:23:58 Slammer: that's why it's the Ironic twist
11:24:02 Slammer: ::D
11:24:10 dynamite_dude: indeed :p
11:24:15 Owen: seriously? :S
11:24:32 dynamite_dude: haha, only kidding
11:24:41 dynamite_dude: not the first time I've heard of it though
11:25:19 Slammer: so here's my Question for you guys.... what do you think of David Beckham?
11:25:52 dynamite_dude: lmao
11:26:02 dynamite_dude: as a person? as a football player?
11:26:26 Slammer: overall... do you feel betrayed that he left etc.
11:26:52 Owen: xD
11:26:54 Owen: he's a gimp
11:27:12 Slammer: I mean he comes all the way over here
11:27:12 Owen: you can have him :L
11:27:22 Slammer: and he hasn't even played
11:27:22 dynamite_dude: betrayed? lol, no
11:27:27 Slammer: barely
11:27:29 dynamite_dude: that happened when he started playing for r madrid :p
11:27:42 dynamite_dude: there are better players
11:28:06 Slammer: the thing is... if he wasn't good looking, he would just be a average Player some people say
11:28:10 dynamite_dude: don't feel like we've 'lost' him either.. he's just playing for a club over there
11:28:17 dynamite_dude: perhaps
11:28:32 Slammer: are you a big soccar fan?
11:28:36 dynamite_dude: he had his period of being okay at footie
11:28:58 dynamite_dude: ironically, no, I love playing football but know nothing about the different leagues, the teams, etc
11:29:15 dynamite_dude: whereas, every other friend of mine knows every player's name around the globe etc :p
11:29:26 Slammer: are you in your 20's?
11:29:33 dynamite_dude: nop

11:32:28 Slammer: so tank.... is the Legal Drinking age in Ireland 11?
11:32:39 Owen: lol
11:32:43 Owen: it is in Scotland
11:32:45 Tank: I can't remember. I was drunk
11:32:57 Slammer: Stereotype no.!
11:32:58 Slammer: 1
11:33:43 dynamite_dude: haha
11:34:22 Slammer: A Scotsman visited London for his annual holiday and stayed at a large hotel. However, he didn't feel that the natives were very friendly. "At three o'clock every morning," he told a friend, "they hammered on my bedroom door, one the walls, even on the floor and ceiling. Sometimes they hammered so loud I could hardly hear myself playing the bagpipes."
11:34:37 Slammer: LOL
11:34:40 Slammer: jk owen
11:34:47 dynamite_dude: where do you get this stuff from :p lol
11:34:52 Tank: *groans
11:34:57 Tank: !!
11:34:58 Owen: haha
11:35:04 Slammer: LOL
11:35:09 Owen: no
11:35:10 Owen: xD

11:36:07 Owen: :P
11:36:22 Owen: Boy gots good face cream xD
11:36:29 Owen: no, I'm not offended
11:36:34 dynamite_dude: and so the young ones remained
11:36:35 Owen: it'd be pointless
11:36:39 Slammer: There are many theories about the bagpipes, otherwise known as the missing link between music and noise. Some say they were invented by a Scotsman who trod on his cat and liked the noise. Others claim that they are based on the noise made by a dying octopus. The truth is, however, that they were given to the Scots by the Irish as a joke -but the Scots haven't seen the joke yet
11:36:42 dynamite_dude: *dives for cover
11:36:47 Owen: your just my overexcited neighbors xD
11:37:05 dynamite_dude: I'm starting to believe you memorised this rubbish :p

11:38:18 dynamite_dude: save me :p
11:38:35 Slammer: Where do you come from?" the Scotsman asked an American. "From the greatest country in the world," replied the American. "Funny," said the Scotsman, "you've got the strangest Scottish accent I've ever heard."
11:38:45 dynamite_dude: so what's the website you're using? :p

17:46:30 muris: was that Slammers's idea?
17:46:39 Owen: I have no idea yet and I'm meant to be doing this lydian thing :P
17:46:42 Slammer: hey ESJ.... who do you like better Kermit or Brad?
17:46:46 Owen: can I get away with just learning a scale?
17:46:59 Eat-Sleep-andJam: From muppets show ?
17:47:04 Slammer: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VVPH6vnIeRM
17:47:06 muris: oh yeah Owen,you're in colab thing right?
17:47:28 Owen: yep :P
17:47:37 muris: which one is your?
17:47:52 Owen: I opted for another because I want to force myself to work at my guitar, and this way I have no excuses
17:47:55 Owen: I have G
17:47:56 Slammer: Frog wins!
17:48:01 Eat-Sleep-andJam: yeah
17:48:11 muris: G is cool :)
17:48:17 Eat-Sleep-andJam: Metal country sounds really cool
17:48:19 muris: have you sterted recording?
17:48:26 muris: started*
17:48:34 Owen: nah I've not, I'm just starting to look at the scale
17:48:45 Owen: and what I can do with it
17:48:45 muris: ok
17:49:11 muris: are you going to shred or do more melodic stuff?
17:49:35 Owen: I'm imagining its gonna have to be melody because I cant really shred and I dont really have much desire too
17:49:56 muris: honest :)
17:50:03 Owen: :P
17:50:11 muris: no really
17:50:15 muris: speaking of desire
17:50:16 Owen: theres something that doesnt appeal to me about fast guitaring
17:50:26 muris: for sure
17:50:57 Eat-Sleep-andJam: Well I need to learn modes and get recording software before I can participate with you guys :)
17:51:01 Owen: sure its good, but I feel I'd leave a lot more options open if I took the slower route
17:51:35 muris: can't agree with that but I see your point
17:51:37 Owen: because I listen to really technical bands and I think, yknow this has been done so much that its actually quite boring
17:52:13 Owen: well I suppose not more options, as options that I'm more likey to want to approach
17:52:26 muris: yeah,correct :)
17:52:36 Slammer: what about fast guitar like this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oc7SufBR2u0
17:52:50 Eat-Sleep-andJam: Muris If im doing like Major scales right now and stuff in my playing am I ready for modes ?
17:53:08 muris: probably,I guess
17:53:24 Owen: see, I like that, but that has melody, its not like a blur of notes
17:53:45 muris: yeah,fast is ok..but fast what??
17:54:07 Owen: hmm?
17:54:51 muris: as you said,fast is ok if it has melodie or som inside
17:54:53 Eat-Sleep-andJam: I think Fast has its times. I love shred , but im also a sucker for a slow solo thats so melodic it could bring a tear to my brown eyes
17:55:22 Slammer: like the Ending to November Rain
17:55:29 Owen: well, I do listen to music with fast shred stuff in it, I just dont feel its a route I want to approach just now
17:55:40 Owen: if that makes sense?
17:55:47 muris: totaly understand :)
17:55:48 Slammer: yeah all guitarist go through fazes
17:56:06 Slammer: SRV, Shred, Classical, Jazz
17:56:24 Slammer: I started with Folk
17:56:29 Slammer: then Classical
17:56:32 Slammer: then SRV

18:39:25 Owen: major is different layout to the minor I believe, they have the same style boxes, but you are to regard them as of different scales completely

18:49:35 Owen: I'm telling you, hands of Gsus kill the fretboard lol
18:49:42 Salivtomte: elexir is great, but thats just the wrapped strings that are good
18:49:52 Salivtomte: rest is pretty much the same a cheap set
18:49:59 muris: true
18:50:25 Salivtomte: so ull have to switch the higher ones before the complete set is worn out
18:51:00 muris: I'm throwing everyhting
18:51:14 muris: sometimes only high E goes out of tune
18:51:21 Salivtomte: yeah, thats what one should

18:51:59 muris: you knew?
18:51:59 Salivtomte: true?
18:52:12 Salivtomte: by the looks of your video i could tell
18:52:16 Salivtomte: : )
18:52:22 Owen: :O maaan, I wanna be fast player now xD
18:52:27 muris: well,I have a deal with music store here
18:52:29 Owen: Free strings!
18:52:49 muris: I do some showcases for them form time to time
18:52:50 Salivtomte: Jimi hendrix once visited my home town in swe
18:52:57 Salivtomte: not one of the largest
18:52:59 Salivtomte: in the 60's
18:53:04 muris: they pay me and give some equipment as well
18:54:09 Salivtomte: and walked in to the music store, one hour later the owner of the store called the internatinal fender office in the states, "there was some random black kid here, he was asking for a free guitar, i told him to piss off"
18:54:27 muris: lol
18:54:27 Owen: hahahaahah
18:54:35 Salivtomte: :D
18:55:42 Salivtomte: I need a lesson on making the boxes work together, would you make one for me and all other guitar freaks? :D
18:56:01 muris: think I have one already
18:56:13 muris: have you seen it?
18:56:18 Salivtomte: there is?
18:56:23 muris: yeah
18:56:32 muris: pentatonic substitution
18:56:32 Salivtomte: ok, brb
18:56:42 muris: in excercises I think
18:56:54 Owen: :P he has one for every ocassion, he's like a video santa, although I dont think santa has a chord named after him :(
18:57:15 muris: lol
18:57:31 Owen: Asussanta anyone?
18:57:34 Owen: invent it?
18:57:36 Owen: :P
18:58:01 Salivtomte: lol, thats great
18:58:30 muris: funny comment Owen
18:58:32 muris: thanks :)
18:59:26 Owen: :P
18:59:55 Salivtomte: that flashing pick is really helpfull
19:00:07 Salivtomte: every GMC teacher should posess one
19:00:20 Owen: do you get free versions of them too? as you endorse them?
19:00:31 muris: yeah,guides in right direction ;)
19:00:40 muris: I'm an endorser,yes
19:01:13 muris: so,leeson is helpful?
19:01:20 Salivtomte: Whats your guys position on transcribing by ear, versus learning quicker with tabs?
19:01:22 muris: lesson*
19:01:46 Owen: everyone says do it by ear, but I dunno where to start learning with that
19:02:24 Salivtomte: yeah, im defenelty going to learn that, switching keyes really made the thing sound more interesting
19:02:37 muris: ok :)
19:02:53 Salivtomte: muris; tabs vs ear transcribing?
19:03:00 Owen: does the backing chord need to change to be able to mess with different keys as the lead?
19:03:15 Owen: or do you have to stay consistant with the key as the chord at the particular point
19:03:16 muris: key is the same
19:03:27 muris: pentatonics are changing
19:03:42 Owen: yeah, I meant the key of the scale :P
19:04:01 Salivtomte: yeah, thats a good question
19:04:27 muris: key is tonality guys
19:04:33 muris: chord is something else
19:05:26 Salivtomte: Yeah but i guess what he means is, A backing track has the chord progression Am Dm G etc
19:05:35 Salivtomte: and its played in the key of Am
19:05:40 muris: it has
19:05:56 muris: but you can play all those pentationic over Am chord
19:06:01 muris: or G
19:06:03 muris: or F
19:06:06 muris: or Dm
19:06:11 Salivtomte: and where do you move you pentatonic scaleshape
19:06:11 muris: or Em
19:06:26 muris: as long the key is Am
19:06:44 Salivtomte: im lost :(
19:06:54 muris: guess so
19:07:02 Owen: so your saying we could play g minor pentatonic over an Am chord?
19:07:07 muris: must get better view over key
19:07:08 Salivtomte: guess thats something that comes with theory
19:07:19 Owen: or g pentatonic even
19:07:21 muris: key has 7 notes,right?
19:07:47 muris: guys?
19:07:49 Salivtomte: yeah, right
19:07:53 muris: ok
19:08:19 muris: everything you have inside one key..chords,scale,patterns etc
19:08:28 muris: is made of those 7 notes
19:08:35 muris: ok?
19:09:08 Salivtomte: ok . ..
19:09:10 Salivtomte: :D
19:09:25 muris: are you able to folow me?
19:09:25 Salivtomte: thats with a major scale
19:09:45 Salivtomte: what notes would that be, in the key of A
19:09:55 muris: notes of Am scale
19:10:07 muris: those notes defined everything
19:10:20 Owen: B# ?
19:10:28 muris: let me make this easier
19:10:33 Salivtomte: but in a pentatonic scale that would only be five notes?
19:10:37 muris: what was purpose of my lesson ?
19:10:41 Salivtomte: A C D E G
19:10:59 Owen: I need more sleep I think V_V
19:11:16 muris: ok Owen
19:11:34 Salivtomte: :D
19:11:40 muris: ;)
19:11:40 Owen: although I'm gonna continue to ignore my eyes and read on :P
19:11:49 muris: so
19:11:52 muris: purpose?
19:11:52 Salivtomte: yeah
19:12:23 Salivtomte: with that video lesson?
19:12:27 muris: yeah
19:12:39 muris: just see the text
19:13:30 Salivtomte: to avoid usual sound of playing only A minor pentatonic"
19:13:44 Salivtomte: ?
19:13:56 muris: yes
19:13:58 muris: you see
19:14:30 muris: one of the first thing that each guitar player learns is pentatonic slace
19:14:36 Salivtomte: yeah, im on with that
19:14:37 muris: scale
19:14:42 Salivtomte: yes
19:14:44 muris: now
19:14:58 muris: he plays it over any chord progression
19:15:05 Salivtomte: and with now further knowledge the player would get stuck in this penta key
19:15:10 Salivtomte: for the rest of his life
19:15:10 muris: in same key of course
19:15:21 muris: yes
19:15:25 muris: now
19:15:43 muris: in every major/minor scale there are 3 pentatonics
19:15:45 Salivtomte: what is the chord progression in the baking?
19:16:09 muris: Am,Dm ,Em
19:16:18 muris: latter we have F and G
19:16:27 Salivtomte: ok, now i am lost again, how would you define "a pentatonic"
19:16:45 muris: scale of 5 tones
19:16:49 Salivtomte: there is 3 pentatonics in a major scale
19:16:50 muris: has that blues sound
19:16:54 Salivtomte: yes
19:16:56 muris: or japanese :)
19:17:03 muris: speaking of major
19:17:23 muris: but you can see it in regular major,minor scale
19:17:30 muris: got that?
19:17:38 Salivtomte: so a pentatonic is basically a major/minor scale, with notes removed
19:17:49 muris: correct :)
19:17:50 Salivtomte: yeah
19:17:56 Salivtomte: okok
19:18:03 Salivtomte: now i am there again
19:18:08 muris: great
19:19:31 Salivtomte: so the harmonic minor scale contains all the notes from pentatonics in 3 different keyes?
19:19:45 muris: not keys
19:19:47 muris: remeber
19:19:54 muris: for key you need 7 notes
19:19:55 muris: not 5
19:19:57 muris: :)
19:20:27 muris: and it's not harmonic minor
19:20:32 muris: it's natural minor
19:20:46 Salivtomte: the Aminor scale contains the notes from the Am, Dm and Em Pentatonic?
19:20:54 Salivtomte: ok, natural
19:20:55 muris: yes!! :)
19:21:08 Salivtomte: right one, i just learned something :D
19:21:30 muris: and if you write them down'you'll be able to see them
19:21:52 Salivtomte: yeah, guess youre not lying :D
19:21:59 muris: :)
19:22:04 Owen: :P
19:22:17 Owen: huzzah for silent reading!
19:22:28 muris: ;)
19:23:01 Salivtomte: and the A major scale contains what Major pentatonics?
19:23:12 Salivtomte: A D E?
19:23:29 muris: wow
19:23:34 muris: there you go
19:23:38 Owen: :P
19:23:42 Salivtomte: cool, thx
19:23:50 muris: no prob
19:23:56 Stratman58: waaasup
19:24:03 muris: hi :)
19:24:04 Salivtomte: hello stratman
19:24:41 Owen: hey!
19:24:53 Stratman58: ok I would talk to you all, but nature's calling
19:24:54 Stratman58: !
19:24:59 Salivtomte: muris, have you learned out of tabs or ear transcribing?
19:25:07 muris: ear
19:25:23 muris: the best way
19:25:36 muris: latter on I learned to read notation
19:25:40 muris: and that;s it
19:25:43 muris: :)
19:25:51 Salivtomte: i guess it is, i just started on it, doesnot speed things up really, but i guess i pays off in the end
19:26:00 muris: of course
19:26:07 muris: I said this milion times
19:26:22 muris: use tab only whaen it's needed
19:26:54 Salivtomte: thats something for GMC, all lesson tabs should be hidden
19:27:03 muris: good question
19:27:09 muris: we can't hide it
19:27:14 muris: it's there
19:27:22 muris: but be smart while using it
19:27:25 muris: :)
19:27:53 Salivtomte: you could make it visible with a push of a button
19:28:05 Salivtomte: wich would inquire a sercret password
19:28:24 muris: too coplicated I guess
19:28:24 Salivtomte: wich would only be known by the instructor
19:28:28 Salivtomte: :D
19:28:31 muris: this way it makes you to think
19:28:43 muris: do I need to look at the tab from the start?
19:28:44 muris: etc
19:28:59 Salivtomte: its hard not seeing it
19:29:02 Salivtomte: its there
19:29:12 muris: see your point tho :)
19:29:14 Salivtomte: atleast, you should have to scroll down
19:30:01 Salivtomte: i think that would be great, the staff hasnt really explained the benefits of ear transcribing
19:30:12 Salivtomte: .D
19:30:32 Salivtomte: so you started playing guitar without tabs?
19:30:38 muris: lol
19:30:48 muris: i started playing without guitar indeed
19:30:52 muris: for 2 years
19:31:05 Salivtomte: without guitar?
19:31:20 muris: I was borough it from neighbours
19:31:33 muris: few hours from each
19:31:43 muris: until I got my guitar :)
19:31:46 Salivtomte: and soon you got your hands on it you would listen to cd's?
19:31:53 muris: lol
19:31:56 muris: no cd
19:31:59 muris: tapes
19:32:02 Salivtomte: cool
19:32:05 muris: war time
19:32:09 Salivtomte: i see
19:32:21 Salivtomte: acoustic?
19:32:23 muris: it comes with motivation
19:32:28 muris: yeah
19:32:28 Salivtomte: it does
19:32:32 muris: acoustic
19:32:47 muris: latter on,after 5years of playing I got electric
19:33:09 muris: was like hypnoside
19:33:10 Salivtomte: what songs would you work on, for a start, an acoustic guitar sure does decrease the amount of songs possible to play
19:33:11 muris: :)
19:33:31 muris: well
19:33:41 muris: I played everything on that acoustic
19:33:51 muris: from Dire Straist to Metallica
19:33:52 Salivtomte: like what?
19:33:55 Salivtomte: lewl
19:34:00 muris: yeah
19:34:04 Salivtomte: nylon or steel?
19:34:05 muris: only guitar,you must
19:34:17 muris: some nylon,some steel
19:34:31 muris: depends of neighbour :)
19:34:52 muris: three were missing string of course
19:34:54 Salivtomte: what metallica songs did you learn to play on an acoustic?
19:34:55 muris: but who cares
19:34:57 Owen: I started on a steel
19:34:59 muris: :)
19:35:00 Owen: baptism of fire
19:35:18 muris: I leaned everything
19:35:25 muris: and solos
19:35:32 muris: hard to explain
19:35:37 muris: I just wanted it
19:35:38 Salivtomte: yes, i dont understand
19:35:51 Salivtomte: did it sound good?
19:35:51 muris: you can't go out
19:35:56 muris: play soccer or som
19:36:00 muris: you're at home
19:36:10 muris: playing and waiting for power to comes
19:36:21 muris: to play some tapes and learn new stuff
19:36:45 Salivtomte: thats a good enviornment for a musician imo
19:36:51 Salivtomte: nothing else to do
19:37:05 Salivtomte: thats inspiring
19:37:09 muris: except to die 8)
19:37:46 Salivtomte: no teachers involved?
19:37:57 muris: nope
19:38:03 Salivtomte: cool
19:38:08 muris: my brother showed me few chords
19:38:13 muris: A,D G etc
19:38:16 Owen: :O
19:38:18 muris: that's it
19:38:28 Salivtomte: thats a really cool story
19:38:41 Salivtomte: we are to spoiled and lazy
19:38:44 muris: that's really common story in Bosnia
19:38:46 Salivtomte: having, mp3s
19:38:53 Salivtomte: gmc
19:38:58 muris: mean during war time
19:39:02 muris: yeah
19:39:11 muris: having a lot id not always the best
19:39:25 Salivtomte: no, thats for certain
19:39:44 Salivtomte: so you would play all day long?
19:39:46 muris: at least on the begining
19:39:53 muris: latter on you need more stuff
19:40:04 muris: but let it be a bit harder on start
19:40:06 muris: imo
19:40:17 Salivtomte: hard to work out scales and stuff without guidance
19:40:33 muris: well
19:40:34 Salivtomte: cool, will remember that
19:40:40 muris: I played them all by ear
19:41:00 muris: figured out by myself
19:41:06 Salivtomte: but, if noone explained the benefits of them, or the shapes etc of them
19:41:30 Salivtomte: that most have taken some serious amount of time
19:41:38 muris: if you want or need,you can have by yourself
19:41:46 muris: with few answers of course
19:42:40 Salivtomte: thats so awsome, and inspiring
19:42:54 Salivtomte: i have to go to sleep, great talking to you guys
19:43:00 Salivtomte: owen, muris
19:43:06 muris: everyone has it's own path
19:43:15 muris: but goal is only that counts :)
19:43:37 Salivtomte: for certain, good night guys !
19:43:42 muris: night
19:44:55 Owen: Ooops
19:44:57 Owen: I'm too late
19:44:58 Owen: :(
19:45:01 Owen: ah well
19:45:22 Owen: Trying to find a suitable bassist in my local area who's up for some jamming
19:45:27 Owen: not having much luck
19:45:35 muris: in Uk?
19:46:15 muris: miss? :(
19:49:10 Owen: yeah
19:49:49 Owen: its a bit of a pain, musical interest seems to be dictated by who is the coolest over here, rather than who has the most talent
19:51:58 muris: guess so
19:52:52 muris: added 4th vid :)
19:53:02 Owen: ah, where about?
19:53:25 muris: http://www.guitarmasterclass.net/guitar_forum/index.php?showtopic=5794&pid=49773&st=0&#entry49773 <http://www.guitarmasterclass.net/guitar_forum/index.php?showtopic=5794&pid=49773&st=0&#entry49773>
19:54:39 Owen: so is the rest of your band essentially just session?
19:55:44 muris: not sure if I understood
19:56:14 Owen: they dont take part in the creation of the music they just play live or record?
19:56:25 muris: just live by now
19:56:44 muris: i'll do more live recording for my new album
19:56:53 muris: some of them'll be involved as well
19:58:01 Owen: cool, I dont think I could ever just play someone elses music though :P it'd annoy me :D
19:58:18 muris: :)
19:59:48 Owen: so does some of your stuff have vocals?
20:00:34 muris: not still
20:00:36 muris: but will
20:01:48 Owen: ah cool, is it something your learning?
20:03:00 muris: mean like life story or?
20:03:35 Owen: vocals?
20:03:50 muris: learning what?
20:04:58 Owen: how to sing? or have you just not incorporated into the music it thus far
20:05:13 muris: no
20:05:18 muris: I sing all the time
20:05:29 Owen: :)
20:05:29 muris: but I did first record all instrumental
20:05:32 muris: thats'l all
20:05:36 muris: :)
20:06:06 Owen: ah I just wondered, because you looked like you were singing live and it seemed strange that there was none on the record :P
20:06:17 muris: yeah
20:06:22 muris: many asked the same
20:06:24 muris: dunno
20:06:36 muris: just wanted it this way
20:07:40 Owen: yeah, I like the instrumental thing, I was just wondering though :)
20:09:21 muris: :)
20:10:05 Owen: woo! I got another review on the GMC front page :P go me! :D
20:11:23 muris: lol
20:11:25 muris: you see

20:12:53 muris: thumbs up

20:15:04 Owen: no*
20:15:26 muris: no need for it :)
