  • Ah Hell....

    Warning [img]/images/graemlins/rant.gif[/img] Warning

    Dunno what the hell is wrong, but can't sleep for sh*t tonight. Been on some sorta mental high where I just wanna party and play guitar all night, but everyone in their right mind is sleepin. Been rockin my new Jackson Stars 24 fret Rhoads all night (will post pics when I figure out where my cable is to connect it to the computer). Floyd is bein a lil bastard right now, so gonna put her down. No need for anyone to respond to this lol, let her float to the next page, it's just the adrenaline or whatever it is I'm feeling right now. Kinda in a Pantera mood too, so just learned CFH again. Damn alternate pickin on the chords is tough on this one. Got it, but it's a little sloppy. Actually if it's sloppy, I don't got it, so gonna go practice. All that stuff people tell ya bout playin slow really works. I never bothered with it just because I wanted to learn everything as fast as I could, but now that I'm takin things slow I realize how much I suck, lol and how much better I can be. I want one of those drum machines, just dunno which one. Playing to a metranome is cool and all, but sometimes ya just want that lil extra beat in there. Just keep time (which I'm pretty ok with) and it's all in all the same.

    So sorry to waste 2 min of your life if your readin this, lol, I'm just so awake and outta my mind right now (no drugs (never touch the stuff) or alcohol tonight which is why I'm a little confused on why I'm up). Gonna throw on the Lord Of the Rings and see if one of those talkin trees will mellow me out...Cya guys

    Heh I hear ya, I can't sleep either and its 4am now. I have ideas for customshop shop guitars keeping my brain awake. DARN YOU EVIL JACKSON!

    But I can actually relate to your Practicing things slower story. I just picked up a metronome and Petrucci's Rock Discipline book and have been practicing the exercises in there to try and get cleaner and eventually faster. I too have the tendency to just try to go fast off the start. So now i'm trying to slow it down and get more comfortable.
    I can really feel the burn of the work out from some of these exercises. I'm still not very used to playing along with the metronome though it actually distracts me. Maybe I just have A.D.D. HAHAHA

      I recommend a Boss DR-770 drum machine, and no I don't work for Boss! It really is VERY versitile. Check it out.
