Music / NAMM 2020
« on: January 17, 2020, 04:32:16 pm »
Might as well get this party started.  I am sure you've been watching stuff.  I gave it 24 hours to get some longer videos up.

Popping this on now.  i've not watched it but feedback from the comment sections make it sound like it's going to be VERY cool!
I am not even a big PRS fan but I always enjoy seeing what they have

Music / STONE TEMPLE PILOTS NEW ALBUM

excellent and I just ordered it on vinyl too.  Jeff Gutt is a great singer and has huge shoes to fill...that said the Deleo brothers bring it
and the music and new singer mesh excellently.

Very happy for them....they deserve a second (third?) chance at this....

I couldn't remember if we have a great and guitars major player thread....G.A.S. meaning gear acquisition syndrome which I constantly have!!

This guys channel isn't amazing but he's pretty good...first John Mayer vid I am checking out

the guitar looks great honestly...wasn't sure what to expect and the colors are super cool too

some things never change!!

add any videos you find from the weekend you find worthy.

Music / Happy Birthday Jimmy Page!
« on: January 09, 2018, 10:46:53 am »
74 years old....and he is still in love with Zeppelin....it really shows and 2018 is the 50th year of the band...so there's surprises planned and rolling out.  Can't wait to see what he's up to.

Just listened to all of this....I've saved these a million times but hadn't listened to it in a LONG time.

All of my Love is a real tear jerker when you listen and think that Robert had just lost his son......to put that kind of raw emotion into a vocal
must have been tough.

and then here's another one....this came on with autoplay so might as well share it too!

Music / ALL things Buckethead
« on: January 07, 2018, 11:59:59 am »
here's that Pike.

listen to the first 2:15 and I think you'll be diving back into his music pretty heavily...there's so much on youtube
you can probably listen for 2 years straight and not get to it all!!

Music / The GURU of VAI
« on: January 05, 2018, 01:40:09 pm »
let's do this....so many amazing Steve Vai lessons on Youtube...so much wisdom and not only guitar knowledge but just approaches to mastery of an artistic skill and creativity.

Here's a few to start it off...this can be our one stop Steve Vai guitar lesson center...and I think it will be bad ass.

Music / FIRST spins finally
« on: January 05, 2018, 08:47:51 am »
Thought I'd start a new thread (this might be my first here actually!) but I thought I'd do a full reboot of all things around me
to celebrate the new year.

what I mean is:

Take a fresh look at everything and instead of just thinking I like this or I don't like that based on old opinions I may have come to or
assumptions I made years back (as you go through life and define yourself...."this is my favorite, this or that")


I thought I'd look at everything in my life with FRESH eyes...I mean everything.  and make NEW opinions
and redefine myself!

Music being a huge part of my life and something I seem to use almost as sustenance....it seemed like a great place to start/

so what I am up to is this.  I am going to pick 1 album a day and listen to it for the first time...it might be a rock band or rap band...it could be a pop
album or soundtrack, EDM. ...I honestly don't know.  The point is.  I love music but have picked some pretty specific lanes...I'd not consider myself close minded
with music at all...but there's so much out there...why not try new things, make some new opinions, and not just have default ideas based on maybe decades old
moments where I went "this isn't for me"

first spin is this.  I've never heard this album and have NO idea why I even picked this...but I'll come back and give me thoughts once I am done...and if anyone else wants to do their
own version of this...please post the album you'd like to choose and then post your thoughts.
