Knowing music theory ruins it for you, anyway. If you do, then you start following the rules and just playing music as is. If you don't, then it starts just coming naturally and you make music. YKWIM?

Technically, we wanna watch how he plays, not what he plays. NR and Estranged had awesome solos, some of everyone's favourites, but both those songs were written by Axl entirely. It's not who puts the music on the paper, but who puts the music into your goddamn head.

Music theory ruins it for you?? really??? dont think so buddy. I've been playing piano since im 6 years old, and I know alot, and I say alot, bout music theory, and it never ruined anything, I've always been told that I stand out of other pianist because I acutally play, not only pressing ivory notes on a keyboard. It can really help you in some music styles, or some music figures, when you're learning songs that were written by somebody else, not yourself. You can write stuff by yourself and play it magically, but if you read a sheet music or something like that, music theory can help you understand what the player thought and stuff like that. In Blues/Jazz and in Classical, music theory can actually help you alot, inconsciously. I admit its not always usefull and yo ucan be good without it, but saying it ruins you is being completely clueless about what your talking about

by the way, theory is not playing by the rules. There's no rules. Its only a guideline to help yo usee things you might have not seen on your own. There is never never never ever something you ABSOLUTELY have to follow, in music. Its always suggestive stuff. Yo udecide what you take and what you leave. there's no such things as rules, theory or not.

totally agree, learnign about music only helps, take what you need, and leave what you dont! never be close minded to anything!

you are an idiot.

either shut up or get off the forum because i dont know how someone like you could possibly be a gnr fan.

either accept that gnr aint no stupid punk band or go to some simple plan forum you goddamn punk

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

love it!

Something relevant??? something that changes??? How could a band change if they are not doing anything?? You say Led Zeppelin doesnt evolved and stay with the same style. tell me how thye could evolved with the fact that they are not a band anymore??dickhead! You say you think Elton John is shitty. Well Elton is an exemple of evolution, so you should be complaining! He started with some more mellow guitar oriented songs to go up with bigger piano ballads and ended up in the 90's with more electric guitars in his songs. so shut it up dude, you have no clue. Alot of the bands that were mentionned in that thread and that you said never evolved and stayed the same (wich is the fact they suck, according to you!) had, indeed, evolved. Its not because they dont evolved according to the so-called standards , according to what other bands did, that they didnt evolved in their own style, going further in what they were already doing, experiencing some new stuff in their own fucking style! The Stones. you like to bash them alot dont ya??? Listen to their first album, and listen to their last. Its the same style, yes, I agree. But there is a change. they have digged more into the style, perfectionning the style. You dont know shit what your talking about, and everybody can tell this. You can have your opinion, but dont start to jump on everybody claiming that you know things and that all of our fave bands are shit, next time, put it nicely, and BE OBJECTIVE for fuck sake, your dissing everything everybody said, never, never, you said : yeah you'Re right. Next time you want a debate, at least do it properly, and dont go thinking you're a musical god. Go tell Page , Plant and Jagger how to play music, just for fun.

here fuckin here!

all i can say is that maybe this person talks out of their ass in order to get people to laugh.. music as a whole is evolution. most of the people mentioned are bands that are still going, they could not do tha had their music not evolved.. but more to my own point what the fuck! are you even a musician if so, i wonder what your influences are??? anyway, well see Dee!

not sure if its 15, but i know its definitely more than 10, and thats a live version of Deep Purple's Child in time.. love that song..

They should make this official and make it "the Speed of Clocks." That's pretty trippy and cool. Now I kinda wanna listen to some Coldplay.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Who cares, they were never that good anyway. 

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

indeed.. i dont give a shit

shit! haha! well, they always sound the same anyway, with most fo their shit! but that wa good haha

Yup me too!! eeee!! What will they play do u think?

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

apparently only 3 songs - FTP, DLT and i think SLither..

I tryed EVERYTHING in london even bribery on security!!!!!, but nout worked. althought we did get round the back and nearly to the door then some guy told us he was gonna call the cops, soo we thought we would leave, but not before i TOUCH SLASHS GUITAR..................................................case

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

LOL! ill have to do that then. the problem is that at a festival its even harder as the bands dont tend to stick around and theyre playing Live 8 the next day. ill do the shirt, and bribe security.. ill do my best, just dont wanna get kicked out! thank for the suggestions!

You honestly expect a comment from that line up!

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

what i was thinking!

Dress up real nice so Matt can give you a pass for backstage

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Yeah that seems to be the only way to get one

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

seems so! damn, i was hoping not to have to do the sexy dressing up thing, but hey, to meet duff n slash...

Only Slippery...is good from Bon Jovi.

From Bon Jovi.. Slippery has some good songs, but their album New Jersey is much better quality.. the songs are less glam/hair, and more rock... Sambora does great solos, the vocals are harder.. its just better. id recommend that album more than Slippery

OK.Which song is the FATHER on the album?

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

FATHER? like the greatest song?

they are mince.

is that good or bad? slang these days

personally, i like Creed

John gets too much of a bad rap because he's still alive and making money.

yeah right!! i knew it!!!

I voted John, he was more influencial, i personally find paul's solo stuff a bit boring

avril lavigne - knockin on heaven's door. anythign she does makes me cringe, but why ruin someone else's songs too?

I'm gonna be predictable.....Velvot Revolver!

Joke! I voted GN'R

nice avatar

the darkness are up there with queen as being one of the biggest joke bands of all time, their singer can't even sing, he's a show up for england, plus their songs are all a load of old shite...

...i'd love to punch justin hawkins flush in the face.

ummm, Queen a joke band?? i think not... however i do agree with you about therest of what you said about the Darkness. Though again.. live, there were very good aparently.. just dont dis Queen..
