November 30, 200520 yr Everyone plays guitar these days, or at least tries to, which makes it much more unappealing to pursue musically. Good luck, for what its worth. Metal fans, check out my band!Still the King....

November 30, 200520 yr Not bad for day 1, what did you use to record? Kirk and Lars I could handle. At the same time.
November 30, 200520 yr Author Not bad for day 1, what did you use to record? I stuck a little microphone up next to the amp (I really thought it'd sound crappier, since this was a really cheap microphone that came with a webcam a long time ago) and recorded it with Audacity I just posted something! ^_^ to the terrorist...er... kirbybeam.
November 30, 200520 yr Not bad :) I play guitar alot (I know, weird huh? lol), but I usually try to play some Metallica / Three Days Grace songs, which i mostly learned myself by listening to the songs over and over again :P Good luck with your progress, i'll check in now and then to see how you're doing :)
November 30, 200520 yr Not too shabby, keep at it! :) I've played the classical guitar for a while now, i'm doing my Grade 5 soon. I bought an electric a year or so ago, didn't play it much but i've picked it up again for music GCSE performances and compositions and whatnot. The amps broken though atm so i have to borrow the schools. My latest thing i'm trying to learn is Pinball Wizard, Townshend is a god :P "Da mihi castitatem et continentam, sed noli modo"
November 30, 200520 yr Very nice for day 2, you already outshine the guys in Bloodhound Gang :D (Please dont turn out as the guys in Necromagus thread.)
November 30, 200520 yr Lol. Remember, when it comes to playing guitar, you will always be better than me.
December 5, 200520 yr Well I guess that's ok. :D I've been playing for years. 8) Have fun learing the ways of the guitar lol
December 5, 200520 yr Everyone plays guitar these days, or at least tries to, which makes it much more unappealing to pursue musically. Good luck, for what its worth. Yea, the only way to get famous is to get cut a real good break most likely, or know someone famous

No one likes the didgeridoo. didgeridoos can go to hell. but really if your just starting riffs that are easy play are some of the Red Hot Chili Pepper's riffs.
December 6, 200520 yr I could record my drum routines, but I don't feel like buying any decent drum mikes :P If I was to just just cheap mikes all you'd hear would be the echo of the snare in my small room :P [Admin Edit: Religious text Not permitted]~108 combat~5.9k dusties killed / dragon chain :D
December 6, 200520 yr but really if your just starting easiest riffs to play are Red Hot Chili Pepper's riffs. I'm not sure i'd agree with that. Chili's use a lot of finger picking, i've always advised people to learn songs by people like Nirvana or Green Day, mainly because they use power chords (for the most part), and any solo's they play are easy to figure out. Kirk and Lars I could handle. At the same time.

Californication (plus the solo), Otherside, By the Way, Under the Bridge, Save the Population were pretty easy riffs beginners could probably learn. I'll just say some of their riffs are easy. BUT DO NOT PLAY GREENDAY RIFFS BECAUSE GREENDAY SUCKS.
December 8, 200520 yr Everyone plays guitar these days, or at least tries to, which makes it much more unappealing to pursue musically. Good luck, for what its worth. well, a vast majority play rock styles. Not so many play classical. Then you have your subset that play folk. Anyone out there that play folk rock tunes? Y'know, acoustic stuff of the '70s... Gordon Lightfoot, Jim Croce, James Taylor... oh. I must be showing my age...
