Evening ladies and gents,
Just a few words to Vampsfang, I don't think he makes guitarists everywhere sick, well at least he doesn't make me sick. I think he is saying an important point. Stop coming into this forum and picking at peoples posts. They haven't done anything to you. They were kind enough to lend Bryan a hand. All you seem to have done is criticize, not even constructively at that, just trying to make yourself look like a 'good guitarist' all you proved to me is that you lost your job because you played for a long time. In all fairness you may be a good guitarist but isn't this web site about improving people not talking about how you gave blood sweat and tears to learn scales and other things? The man who started this forum (all though i don't know him) sounds like he wants to learn <u>A</u> song <u>NOT</u> to play by ear or play to 200 people or on a good night 500 people like you made so clear that you can/do.
All that said and done, i would say the song...
i cant last a day without you - the carpenters
...is a great song and is only a few chords but sounds great. The strumming rythem comes instantly and theres lots of room to play around with solo and such.
Anyway, hope you get the girl mate.
P.S. (To Vampsfang) so you don't have to reply to this and talk about how much greater you are then me I'd just like to say I'm 15 still in school of course, the only lessons in music is my music GCSE class, I've been playing around one year and i cant play by ear or tune by ear or play harmonics. And even though I'm only a little kid, I can see you talk like a 10 year old with the amount of slang you use. I hope you try a lot harder when writing songs then you do when writing in a forum as your English is atrocious. <img src="images/smiley_icons/icon_rolleyes.gif" border=0 alt="Rolling Eyes">
