    not a recording question per se, looking for song suggestions...

    Van Halens "Spanish Fly"!!!!! Anything by CCR. It's all fairly simple and everybody knows them. Led Zeppelin "Tangerine." Rush "The Trees" is fun and "Closer To The Heart". Try "In The Mood" from the first album. It's in a southern rock style. Niel Young "Needle and The Damage Done" Believe...

    Whats your favorite Album/CD (Drum wise)

    Rush-"Caress Of Steel". An awesome album! "2112" is also a good drum record tone wise and chop wise. AC/DC-"Ballbreaker" Phil Rudd's drum sound on that is awesome and he plays some good chops. "Stiff Upper Lip Live" is also great. "Powerage" and "Back In Black" are also classics. The first...

    Guitars hide the kick?

    C# Tuning Most bands nowdays tune their guitars so low because their singers can't fucking sing! These guys have no ranges whatsoever and won't even try to hit the necessary notes. I Remember when singers could actually sing, and their guitarists and bassists didn't have to tune so goddamn low...

    new VH rumour for those who care ...

    Van Halen You all might want to check out redrocker.com and read what Sammy says about the rumours. Chill of this forum saw van halen recently and said they were good but Eddie is a "Shadow of his former self." I saw them in 1991 and they were great...except for the recorded keyboards. The...

    Tuning half a step down

    As your frets wear, they become flatter and wider, shortening the distance between the nut and the contact point of the fret. Therefore, intonation problems occur and your tuning method becomes impossible.

    Tuning half a step down

    I agree. Also, if you'r dead set on tuning a 1/2 step down, just use a keyboard.

    $450 drum set?

    I suggest looking for a used set in the paper or on ebay. You can always sell them again for about what you purchased them for if he looses interest.

    Tuning????

    I usally tighten the bottom heads on the rack toms really tight and the bottom heads on the floor toms tighter than the batter heads. Then tune the batter heads to the desired pitch. This has worked for me. The tighter bottom heads on the smaller drums makes them punchier. Others might disagree...

    overtone in ride

    If you don't want alot of wash, then try angleing the cymble a bit towards you as you play. Also, don't hit is as hard. My friend has a 21 inch Zildjian Sweet Ride, and he would set it flat and beat the shit out of it for that washy sound he liked so much. I took the same cymble, angled it...

    I've got a problem with a loud drummer, need some advice.

    It's all about consistency and dedication. Fire him. I've delt with drummers that want to re-write the song. For example: They get pissed of when you say, "The ride cymble is played in this part, not the hi hat." If they reply with, "Why don't you let me play what I want?" Then they need...

    do tubes still glow if they are shot?

    The first time I had tube trouble in my DeVille, it blew one power tube and I had 1/4 the amount of power. I replaced them with "Fender" tubes. For those of you who don't know, Fender does not make tubes. Fender takes Sovtek tubes and puts their logo on them. Don't waste your money! Buy JJ...

    I've got a problem with a loud drummer, need some advice.

    I don't eat Cornflakes! It's funny how you make one comment about something specific and it gets blown out of proportion. Did anyone read the original post that I was referring to? It was almost unreadable. If you want someone to take you seriously, then you have to speak (or in this case...

    Mick Mars or C.C.Deville

    Wig and Liver spots? Hands down, MICK MARS is the man!!! He is the most underrated guitar player in metal. Motley Crue would not have beed what it was without Mick Mars. Mick just rocked and played what Motley needed for the song. I saw them in 1990 on Dr. Feelgood tour and his guitar solo was...

    I hate System Of A Down. And Metallica has SUCKED since ...And Justice For All. The otherway around for me. Why play that low? Everything is just mud at that point. Just get a Baritone guitar..or better yet, if you're gonna play that goddamn low, just play a bass! I don't care either. I'll...
