  1. hmmmmm i can see a new project starting :-D
  2. sorry for the hundreds of posts but this is a topic i have lots to say about
  3. actually no. the note you are tuning/intonating, has no influence on the result or practice. you will still need a point of reference, either a tuner or something that generates the procise note you are trying to intonate. my dislike for low frequencies tuning is a simple style problem... low frequencies are harder to hear for the human ear. so if you pile alot of instruments in that range you end up with an undefined noise, which to me is no music, you might as well record heavy machinery with the mic volume at 11 so in my PERSONAL opinion, using lots of low end moshy sound is to mask lack of skill because at the end noone will understand what you are playing anywa... which takes me back to the comment stwartmaxuell made about my sound... once again i am not trying to start another thread closing argument... i am just explaining my PERSONAL views
  4. oh and please refrain on commenting on my spellin/grammar... if you dont know it i am italian, so quit taking the piss. the day you can speak/write in italian at the same level i can speak/write in english will be the day i will accept any criticism on this matter
  5. also lower dosent mean better. not for me. b is as low as i would personally go. a is just too much, any lower and you are looking for some other bass player
  6. so Hog... did you get that god forsaken tuner?
  7. hehe no problems criticize how much you want, i never went to grammar school, nor ever learned to spell english properly.... why bother since is not my language? also since in this forum we have to bitch and bitch and bitch and bitch about everything i see no point in posting any more, as soon as someone expresses their point of vew it has to be picked upon, again life is like music try and get what some one means not how ones expresses it. ps, sorry maxwell i thought you were a bas player, my apologies
  8. i understand that this is a feedback post, but really i dont think that dibating personal techniques is relevant, honestly instruments, like music, rely heavily on personal interpretation, good musican are those people who can convey the feeling of motion in the song, admittidly metal is a very basic and very simple style, but criticising someone about how hard they hit the drums is totally pointles, like me telling dear Stuartmaxwell that playing the bass with a pick is pointles because you can acheave higher speeds with 4 fingers, and you should never use your left thumb to press the low end strings because that denotes a severe lack of technique and no ambition in futher the speed of your note per seconds with your left hand. and now that i have sayd that i will have maxi saying that i speak a loads of bollocks because i have criticised his personal technique, and that my style is so shit, creating once again an endless argument on how you play your instrument. i understand that feedback is necessary, it opens the mind if backed up with the facts, but there are tons of subjects you can feedback from, just dont do it on the personal style of playing.
  9. get a move on you lazy person... and put it on the site i am so curious about the end result for give me strength
  10. my dear shiny guitar player.... just get your arse out earlyer in the morn instead of spending hours in this forum and go and try out some amps go to as many music shops as you can since they will have a different selectio. go play choose my son
  11. lo peeps ithis is my second day of my holydays and i have to admit that it was good, but compared to yesterda it was fantastic. here a summary of what happened the day i left aberdeen to go to my parents in italy, please dont laugh to much or you will pee yourself ok it all started with the fact that i havent slep at all during the night between the 25th and the 26th because my taxy was at 4 in the morning for my 6:20 flight so i was in aberdeen airport in my zombified self listening to a collection of metal and drum and bass to keep me mildly awake, when at 5:40 the check in finally opens, and a bitch jumped in front in the cue but i was too stupefied to react (but i had a small revenge when one of her luggage fell on her foot). So my turn to be "helped" by the check in lady finally arrives, to discover that all the computers are down and she cant check mi luggage in and ihave to accept this little orange card covered in bad writing as a substitute for the boarding pass. so i drop my backpack at the big bags door, and walk towards the gates when i suddenly realised that i am royally fooked, because i ill have to collect my stuff in paris and re-check in there for my second flight second flight to italy. ...but its all right i have 1:20 hours between flights i will make it.... so i get on the plane and wait half an hour for it to get a move, very well done i am allready late. so i arive in paris where out of 5 airport assistants only 1 speeks a really bad version of englishand it takes me 5 mins to get them to understand my problem. so they told me to get through the passport gate collect my stuff and go to the D section (which was half a mile away). so i do that but as soon as i hand in my passport to the police officer i thought: "oh shit! the guy thinks i am a fucking thug" and so he did; for 5 minutes he kept looking at my face (noting the fact that i was sleep deprived, worried, pissed off and in a real hurry) and the passport to than decide that he should punch my veri long name in the pc to get the fact that i am an upstanding european citisen. so i run at the baggage convayorbelt and off corse my stuff was the last through.... its all right dispite the fact that i landed half an hour late and i spent 15 mins arriving in paris i still had half an hour if i hurry i can still make it. but i didnt take in to account the 3 very bored gards at the custom, so with my above described face they too think i am a thug rying to smuggle some form of drugs in to their lovely and clean country so the ask me for 10 times, and i repeat 10 times, if i had anything to declare, ignoring my pleads for hurry because of my connection. so i run, leaving a series of angry and disgruntled peapole in my wake and fially arrive with 15 minutes to spare to the help desk which takes its time to check what flight i was supposed to be on (noting that i gave her my tiket) so i wated there 6 hours to get on a god damn plane and taking 12 hours to do a trip that should have taken 5. i personally think is ery funny and please dont comment on grammar/spelling mistake because that isnt funny at all cheeers stay metal Yeti
  12. i still dont understand y a person has to look good before playing well. since when we listen with our eyes?
  13. i have 2 answers for that comment is up to you to pick one: 1) unless you can speak/write in any other language (other than english) as well as i do english without making ANY spelling/grammar mistakes please do shut up. 2) yes i know i do make some spelling mistakes but, hey, you all know what i ment and i also suffer from CFS (chubby fingers syndrome)
  14. i really whant to know what criteria have been used at last night battle of the bands at the tunnel. was it originality? stage performance? musican ability? technique? contents of lyrics? tightness of esecution? or just the most original outfit?
  15. for jakes sake if you like raw alcohol here is the deal. italy nice little country with lots of alcohol dont go for bear is too expensive and most of the time it sucks. wine, there are 24-28% reds out there in the south of italy not much taste but boy the are strong also you can buy from any supermarket 95-98.5% alcohol. just alcohol, nothing other than alcohol. have a nice trip
