Re: whats the hott music for your guitar?

Hello Deearna,

The best music to play on your guitar is the music that you like. It is however interesting to develop your own style of playing to enable you to put your own 'stamp' on whatever you play.

To give an example, Eva Cassidy's "Somewhere Over The Rainbow" and "Fields Of Gold" are far superior to the original artists versions. (In my humble opinion).

Take care,

Roger

Re: whats the hott music for your guitar?

My guitar is setup in Drop-D so most of the things I try to play are played in Drop-D by the artists.
I also try emulating songs in Drop-D that aren't originally played that way.
I've been trying out some Ska lately (Sublime) but I'm not that good at it.
I think I have no sense of rhythm and timing but everyone tells me that I'm doing okay. *shrug*

The bands I play are:

TOOL
FILTER
SILVERCHAIR
Stone Temple Pilots
311
Catherine Wheel
Sublime
The Flys

Detman,

If you like Drop-D tuning, why don't you give these songs a shot?

Bartender & Don't drink the water (Dave Matthews & Tim Reynolds)

They're easy to play and sound amazing once you figure out the rhythms. Great to sing along to as well.

Re: whats the hott music for your guitar?

I've always liked the simply stuff.  I know it sounds dumb, but I've been playing for about 10 years know and I still like the simple yet good sounding guitar.  Like Jack Johnson, Johnny Cash, Tom Waits, Bob Dylan and the like.

Re: whats the hott music for your guitar?

All music is fun to play but I think rock is the most fun. Of couse im just a kid but you should play the music you like and force yourself to play the music you don't thats what makes you better

"Don't drink the water" used to be one of my favorite Dave Matthews Band songs.
I love the dark tone it has. I will look it up on chordie later tonight!
