Are You A Better Guitar Player Than... Episode V

[japetus]

I didn't seek it out, tbh. My Husband had built his brother a pedal board like the Pink Floyd guy's (I should probably know his name, but I don't ) and we bought him a Strat with a shortened trem arm since that's what he's into. He only wanted the strat and a couple of the pedals, so I took a few things from the pedal board including that and gave the rest to my kids to split up. I usually only ever use it with my synths.

Shut up bitch, @NowYou'rePlayingWithPower is gonna destroy you.

I have a feeling Chick Norris, could in fact be Chugg himself. It's hard to tell at this point.

That was a really good point that @dstroud made. I finally am experiencing this phenomenon by learning and practicing so much and not just playing the same old covers

I tend to pick out a bunch of shit I like for example I'll teach myself a shit ton of Soundgarden songs, play the fuck out of them for a couple weeks then I forget about them and start writing riffs and weird shit in those fucked up tunings, then move on to something else. Maybe I think about an old song or hear one on the radio, switch to standard or Eb and I end up forgetting how to play the cool ass Soundgarden songs I learned.

It's totally different now than it was when I had a band. Back then I would pick out guitar and bass to songs and teach the guitar parts to my guitar player. We played that shit so often and gigged nearly every weekend and no matter what we played at least once a week. Had about 8 hours of shit to play so if a crowd wasn't into the real heavy shit we could slip into some AIC or Everclear or Offspring or whatever. I played a couple hours a day, every day. I don't know tab, always played by ear. I was a much better player then just based on the shear amount of material I could whip out on demand. I disbanded that outfit about 10 years ago though and now I just fuck around. Work on some shit of my own or just wank off. All the bands I started prior to that cover band were original music, but I got sick of not making any money so....
