Thanks mike. The other one I saw recently on craigslist is this: http://annarbor.craigslist.org/msg/450538632.html The seller said it's 10" by 23.5". It's obviously pretty beat up, but the price is nice! Thoughts?

You seem to have a good grasp on your vocal sound. You seem to be comfortable singing. The timing on the guitar seems to be off in a few spots, and the drums get real old and repetitive pretty quickly. The bassy organ sound that starts up at 1:40 or so seems out of tune with the guitar. I...

I'm digging it (at about 4 minutes now). I plan to steal a few ideas from ya for some songs I'm currently dicking around with. :D yeah I like the whole thing. I tend to agree with DavidK that some of the effects are more distracting/confusing than cool. Some fo the really low end effects (I...

Alright. This drum forum is a ghost town. Anyway, I passed on the drums in the above post. I'll keep looking.

http://detroit.craigslist.org/msg/450854972.html Based on the picture (obviously I have no other info), any reason this would be a bad idea? These don't appear to be tunable. Should I avoid them because of that or is that not a big deal?

Check out the attached article. I haven't read it in a long time (probably about time I do), and I think it's more about harmony rather than creating your main melody, but it might give you some ideas... Edit: jsut perused it a bit. I guess this article would only be so helpful if you don't...

If I wanted to buy a multi-purpose hand drum(s), what should I be looking for? I don't know the difference between a Djembe and a bongo. Primarily I'm thinking for adding a little something to more mellow acoustic folky stuff, but maybe able to evoke a bit of a tribal feel as needed. What...

This song (after hearing it on the radio a few times) was what made me buy a Sabbath greatest hits CD when I was in High school. I never cared much for Paranoid or Iron Man, the other two that get decent radio play. It wasn't long before I owned the first 5 or 6 Sabbath CDs and to this day...

I think a lot of drummers (actually all musicians) like to play at the edge of their talent level, or even a tad beyond it. crazy fast fills, etc. If they are pushing beyond their comfort zone, these things lag a bit, and the timing suffers. Probably if an average drummer were to play a...

Definately a useful too for drums with multiple mics. I just recently had a "duh" moment realizing that the kick sounds way tighter and jives with the OHs much better if the wav's inverted. Same, or course, if you are micing the bottom of the snare. Otherwise, I can't see it being much use -...

Ah, young grasshopper, you ask that which can only be answered from within one's own Kostenlos.

On my electric - I'm not too particular. But If I could hire someone to change my acoustic strings every day or two, I would. I love the sound of new strings on acoustics.

just do it, and don't worry about the lyrics being great. I'm sure if we read the lyrics of most of our favorite songs without ever hearing the music, we'd think 90% of them were pretty stupid. That said, maybe try to draw upon lyrics from other styles than what you are writing in. If you...

The only thing wrong with it is it's too short. :( ;)

For someone just starting out, especially a youngster, I definitely lean towards the "just have fun" side rather than the "play your songs perfectly" side. Honestly, if I waited until that threshold, I still wouldn't have ever played any gigs. That said, it's about having fun, conveying that...

that song sounds awesome. It's perfect as is. really. The sparse harmony vocals are just what the doctor ordered. I have never heard the original, but this version is sweet. I REALLY like it. In fact, I might have to check out this Ray LaM dude. On a total unrelated note, I came very...

Oh, and I should mention that I really like the song - all instruments sound really nice and mellow and its a real good mix. I'd just like to hear it either change up - time sig, chord progression, something... or maybe have a new lead instrument come up over the top half way through to add...

Lets see...1 2 3 4 1 2 1 2 3 4 1 2 1 2 Thats....carry the one....adjust for inflation...14 beats? or you could count it 1 2 3 1 2 3 4 so 7/8 maybe? It might stray from that after a while, though. Like Rami said, I zoned out a while into it, due to the repition. I always enjoy trying to...

Frank Zappa hangs out with Dream Theatre and they all do speed - sure, why not? (in other words, sounds real good)

I thought of one more rule - don't get too worked up about random strangers on the internet. For every person that offends you here, there is bound to be at 0.7 people here who will legitimately help you out. Cheers!
