my new instructional video, "jerkin the gerkin all night long without getting carpal tunnel syndrome"


Does it come in DVD format? :lol: :LOL: :thumbsup:

Life is short....have fun!
Cynical bastards out there!! :D
I have to wipe down the camera, the VHS tapes and the baby panda, and then convert it to DVD. I'll let you know when it's finished. :D

How about Blu-ray? you gotta keep up with the times :D
 
All fun in anything / everything stopped after Al Gore invented the internet :lol: :LOL:

After reading alot of bashing on here.....I ask is everyone so damn critical?
I mean.....dont get me wrong here.....but it seems as if alot of whats criticized is like a pissing contest. Who really cares?
For me music is just a way to let off steam and have fun playing.
I never bash others here and been seeing alot of it lately.
Maybe I am too mellow or dont take it as seriously. dont matter if you play the shredding stuff or hell even some old Beach Boys tunes. If it makes the PLAYER smile and have a good time then thats what its about. Some asshole will always be there to say it was out of tune or flat or not in key.
But just play to have fun.
Thats my approach on playing. Not sure how many others out here think like me but I know from reading posts alot of guys are on high horses and always finding a way to criticize or make judgement.
And they are the guys that dont put out clips or videos....Go figure. ;)


Oh well....what the hell do I know. :lol: :LOL:

Just ranting after reading all the negative shit. Thats all. :yes:

make music....make it fun and enjoyable.

Gear forums are marketing mechanisms and potential revenue sources (albeit indirectly) and thus come with all the baggage that surrounds business competition.

They are also used as a tool to rank your level of conspicuous consumption and bragging rights.

Throw in a bunch of guitar players into the mix who are emotionally connected to what they own are you really suprised that it isn't always a lovefest?

Just saying... :yes:

WTF??!??!??
Music isnt Fun, its not about creativity, its difficult and annoying and I hate practicing, and, due to the fact that I do practice at All, I'm in a frustrated, hateful mood all the time and always looking for an opportunity to tell someone off. If you foolishly dont totally agree with me ALL the time, then it's Flame ON!!! Most importantly its about spending all my time on the forum instead of practicing because I know at this stage of my life I've accepted I'm not going to be a Rock Star so I come in here LOOKING for a conflict to ease my ego. So thats that.
Oh, AND, before I forget, Savage IS THE BEST, which is why I hate HIM too, and, RVS, that wasnt a fanny pack in the video, thats all Sav.
Thank you.
:lol: :LOL:

That's great. Why don't you share some "rockstar equipment" with those of us STILL PRACTICING and gigging on a regular basis? Keep your whitty replies to yourself or I'll show up and give you teh "Jolly Roger" treatment ya CAC!! :gethim: :lol: :LOL: :D

Music is a competition. The sooner you learn this the better. There is no joy to be had, we are talking life and death here. The only thing that matters in guitar playing is how fast and cleanly you can play something. Please make a note of this.

Who in da Hell do you think YOUR fooling here? YOU dont practice!!!!! :poke: :shocked: :boxer: :lol: :LOL:
 
For sure man, if it wasn't fun I wouldn't play... that being said there are some evils I have to go through such as routine practice which blows, but with out that I can't perform and do things I need to, to be able to perform and play in the situations I have to... so yea it's fun but it's also work sometimes when I'm keeping my chops in shape, shedding and learning new material.
 
I only use music as an excuse to buy pieces of gear that others already have so i can be part of a virtual fanboy club and we stroke eachother over our similiar tastes in gear.

If you don't agree I'll go clip for clip with you nigga. :lol: :LOL:

not to mention that the amount of gear we own is directly proportional to the size of our wangs. In which case, I'm hung like a flea. A well hung flea, but a flea nonetheless.
