I don't know much to add other than if your are trying to shock then you are going to have to do much better than what you have. There is no way to judge flow from lyrics. As another poster said, sing what you know. Sing what you believe. If you are just trying to fit the mold then it won't...

No need to be heartbroken. Dylan was/is a thing unto himself. He used existing song structures, 'borrowed' lyrics and words from novels and newspapers and poets and songs that he found intersting. He combined them to create something all of his own. Most of Bringing it all back Home has...

Well, I've purchased several things from Rondo. A couple of electrics, a pedal board, a microphone, some strings, cables and some other stuff. I think Kurt is a hell of a guy in my dealings with him. I will buy more stuff from him. Buying an accoustic guitar is a little different. I would...

Just a couple of random thoughts.. Depending on what type of music you are interested in....Stop trying to compose a song and just write one. Anyone can do it. You aren't taking over the world. You don't need a well thought out plan. Pick a few chords, play them in any order, and every order...

:D...I was actually thinking about going back in there with a Dead Boys CD.

I'm on your side. I don't think copywrite protection should last for 75 years past the death of the artist. Maybe 7. The laws aren't really designed for protecting intelectual property(if that even exists) they are about money. Once you create a song and release it to the public it isn't...

Bob Dylan has stolen melodies, chord structures, lyrics, and sometimes even entire songs. His entire career is based on these little thieveries. Apparently, it is called the 'folk' process. You can do it too. You just have to have better lawyers than they do.

Man, I can't tell you guys how much I appreciate your help. Seriously. The Wharfedales were 6.5's and the rep offered to sell me the pair for $280. I couldn't get a real good sense from them because the only CD that the dude had was Sting's greatests hits. Maybe it was Sting that was dull...

I just returned from a fruitless trip to my nearest Music store. It is a small store with limited stock. I did get to listen to a pair of Wharfedale 8.2 diamond pro monitors. I had heard good things about them. Everything that I was told was wrong. To my ears they sounded terrible. Well...

Actually, now that I think about it I would rather not spend 5 or 6 hundred american dollars on monitors. I think it would be better to spend my cash on a good warm vocal mic. I don't plan on doing much twiddling with the sound post recording. I'm just gonna roll with what I've got. So my...

Well, I'm a carpenter for a living so I can build whatever I need. The Rokit 6's were the same price as the Rokit 6's with stands and cables. In the 5 to 6 hundred bones category are the Rokit 8's a good choice? I've actually read several reviews that said the mid's are scooped in the 8's and...

Man, thanks for the good suggetions. Here is what I'm thinking so far: Presonous Firestudio Project-$440 Krk rokit 6's + stands & cables-$400 AKG K171 MKII headphones-$160 firewire card with TI chip, pop filter, extra cables, mic stands,-$150 or so =$1150 I already have a couple of sm 57's and...

Yeah, I think the best thing for me to do is just to buy some things and try to make them work.

(verse 1) The mirror woke up this morning Well before me My girl was already out whoring Just to provoke me If my eyes are not open Doesn't mean you can't touch me I don't see my reflection In anything I see I may or may not of spoken to you Why, what did you hear. (Pre chorus) Apparently some...

I haven't aimlessly purchased anything yet. But after reading Tweakhedz guide several times, reading online reviews of products, and reading many many of the threads here and on a couple of other recording sites for about four months, I have come to the conclusion that there isn't a general...

Do I need a Faderport or a Control Station for the firestudio project? Is the firestudio even a good option for my needs? I don't live in an area where I have ready access to various brands and models of recording equipment. I have to trust the goodwill and knowledge of strangers. When some...

I've asked around and I found a slightly used presonus firestudio project for $350 or a spanking new one for $400. Does that sound about right? Although it doesn't say, I assume that for $400 it is B-stock. Should I stay away from B-stock? Are the Rokit's better than the Mackies in the same...

I have as much space as anyone would ever need. I have very little to no experience recording anything worth listening to. I would like a nice interface with at least four decent preamps that works with a Gateway GT5426E with an upgraded hard drive running Windows Home Premium Vista 64. I...

Well, sometimes you need your penis licked and there is no one else around but another dude and your dog. And really, a dog eats it's own poop and licks it's own ass. That is nasty. cheerio

Seriously though, I am aware that there are alot of very smart competent people here. That is why I stopped by. It is a Forum for Home Recording enthusiasts....I wasn't trying to offend anyone. It was a joke. A pretty obvious one. It is healthy to laugh. Not healthy to frown. Turkey neck.
