but did you change the solo to make it translate better?

Post a video next time

Was thinking about that. For all the shit I've talked about DJ playing it, I may want to get it completely down before I do that lol

Nice

That's awesome! Enjoy the show!

I'm still kind of in shock that we got them.

I *barely* drum lol. I haven't tried my hand at remixing as of yet.

I miss my drums What kind of electronic kit you got?

It's just a Simmons SD1000, but it's pretty cool overall except this cymbal issue.

World full o' lovers, city full o' good time c'mon rave!

YES!! I'm glad someone got that! What a jam.

Sweet. Only Crue album I really like. Shame they couldn't have done more with him.

Just bought tickets. Looking forward to this.

Excellent! Have a great time!

russ can you give a complete review? I'm interested in building some guitar skills does it help?

Nulla & Pitboss-

I'm only a couple days into it but I can tell you that I've learned a lot of stuff that I never tried to learn before. There's a whole Session Mode thing where you can have a ghost band (so to speak) play along with just about anything you want.

It's a little over my head still, but it's the only thing that's ever made me mess with scales, so that seems like a good thing. There's a GuitarCade thing that teaches you some b...

Sounds pretty neat. I'll have to look into getting it soon. I doubt it'll turn me into an expert or anything, but any lessons are good lessons. Thanks for the response, Russ

Re-watched that last night, which is what led to the status.

Nice.

That and the Travelling Wilburys was my introduction-I never got stuck in until a couple of years ago my Grandma passed away and I got all her Big O albums.

Please don't use Roy Orbison's name in vain.

Love that song.

I work in retail too. Luckily it's a family business, so we're not open tonight.

I am shopping today, but it's not from a certain amount of bitching on my part. I was continuously told that employees and customers want to shop on Thanksgiving. I argued and got no where. You can't put it on the customers. People want and need to save money (plus I love the sport of it), blame your shitty employer for falling in line with the rest of the shitty employers.

ZoSo- No but the East Lansing BBY is part of my regular roster.

Daria-

It's a supply and demand thing. If the customers don't show up, the stores wouldn't be open.

I don't work directly for a retailer, but I work for a vendor who's products are in many stores.

Tonight I don't have it so bad. I'm only gathering marketing intelligence and handing out snacks and stuff to keep the sales people handy. I feel way worse for them tha...

Wait. Is Rob Affuso drumming for Skids again too??

Lol good point. No, no he is not. Forgot Skids need their drummer as well.

Oh OK. I nearly shit myself lol.

Thank you. Finally finished up work around 3am. Went back out today to grab the stuff I wanted for Record Store Day. Now I'm not going back out for love nor money lol

Where you work at Russ? Department store like Walmart?

I work in field marketing jman, so I'm in and out of all the different vendors all the time.

Best thread of 2013!

I don't know about that, but I'm just happy to have people to discuss vinyl with

Arnold Layne isn't on Piper but I get your point. I've just never liked that album much myself.

I don't go much on Piper either. The singles from that era are good, can't say I like the album much besides Interstellar Overdrive.

I'm the same way; love the singles from that era but I just don't like the album itself.

Agreed. If you haven't heard the new one yet, do so as soon as you have a chance. The production alone kills the first album.

I wish i went to that show now damn

really, really, really good stuff

I love Portishead. Fantastic band.

You alfierose, are my favorite user of the day in that case!

Thank you Russ. Portishead were one of the soundtracks to my misspent youth, listening to them always evokes a lot of memories.
