  1. It depends on what stage your at. If you've just started playing and want to progress on your own get some guitar books from Bruce Millers and start going through it step by step. You could on the other hand invest in some lessons from a guitar tutor, not exactly sure wheres best though, maybe Bruce Millers again or that place above what used to be Beans (now Cafe nero). Failing that trawl through Guitar tabs from ULTIMATE GUITAR TABS ARCHIVE | 300,000+ Guitar Tabs, Bass Tabs, Chords and Guitar Pro Tabs! and just try playing some difficult tunes. Also going along to open mic nights is a good way to improve on your playing, just watching other guitarists and asking questions generally helps you improve. Hope thats of some use.

  2. Anyway, point is there's always the odd dickhead walking around with a knife.

    Too true, you only have to look back to the Razor gangs in Glasgow in the 50's to know it's not a new thing. Personally I've never carried a knife nor had the compulsion to ever carry one, yet like others know people who have. I guess things will never change, it's fucked up but there are genuinely people out there who want to go out and have a fight and cause trouble, hence carry some form of weapon as 'protection'. With that kind of destructive attitude these incidents are disturbing and diplorable yet sadly unsurprising.

  3. I saw it all cordoned off this morning I was wondering what happened. Pretty shit but to be fair it's getting more and more common in Aberdeen (and the UK), I had a couple of friends chased by someone with a knife on George street the other week. WTF is going on with someone that they feel they have to carry a knife about with them?

  4. Just want to say a big thank you to all who came along last night. Good times were had by all. I'm still drunk!! As this was my last Sunday Sessions, Emma Clifford will be taking over come September when the Sessions go weekly. If you want to play, leave a message on this thread and Emma will be in touch. Big thanks to all the acts who have played over the past few months. Ariba Derchi!!

  5. My God a your mamma slur, you really are pulling out the old ones today! Next up ..... my dad could batter your dad! I'll end this one here, my penis is bigger than yours, don't worry though I'm doubtful any woman will let you near her so that they would find out about your inadequacies. As I said before have a nice life, try not to die or anything, that would just be too much for the world to take.

  6. This ones for you Jamie...

    fuck off you boring cunt.

    Ah such a witty and intellectual response I bet your a wiz with the ladies!! Tell me how long did it take your miniscule brain cell to come up with that one?? I think I've figured out your issue with Bill Hicks, it's just a stab in the dark mind, (like your conception must have been) he's a little too high brow for you. Oh well never mind I'm sure Joe Pasquale's on soon. Go back to sleep Teabags!! Everything is alright! Watch Joe Pasquale and pleasure yourself senseless, just so long a no one actually asks you to utilise any section of your feeble mind. Go back to sleep Teabags! You are free to be a moron!! You are free to be a moron! Have a nice life!!

    "He's not the messiah..."

    HAHA!! This ones for you Teabags!!

    Always Look on the Bright Side of Life

    Some things in life are bad,

    They can really make you mad,

    Other things just make you swear and curse,

    When you're chewing life's gristle,

    Don't grumble,

    Give a whistle

    And this'll help things turn out for the best.

    And...

    Always look on the bright side of life.

    [whistle]

    Always look on the light side of life.

    [whistle]

    If life seems jolly rotten,

    There's something you've forgotten,

    And that's to laugh and smile and dance and sing.

    When you're feeling in the dumps,

    Don't be silly chumps.

    Just purse your lips and whistle.

    That's the thing.

    And...

    Always look on the bright side of life.

    [whistle]

    Always look on the right side of life,

    [whistle]

    For life is quite absurd

    And death's the final word.

    You must always face the curtain with a bow.

    Forget about your sin.

    Give the audience a grin.

    Enjoy it. It's your last chance, anyhow.

    So,...

    Always look on the bright side of death,

    [whistle]

    Just before you draw your terminal breath.

    [whistle]

    Life's a piece of shit,

    When you look at it.

    Life's a laugh and death's a joke it's true.

    You'll see it's all a show.

    Keep 'em laughing as you go.

    Just remember that the last laugh is on you.

    And...

    Always look on the bright side of life.

    Always look on the right side of life.

    [whistle]

    Always look on the bright side of life!

    [whistle]

    Always look on the bright side of life!

    [whistle]

    Always look on the bright side of life!

    [whistle]

    Always look on the bright side of life!

    [whistle]

    Always look on the bright side of life!

    [whistle]

    Always look on the bright side of life!

    [whistle]

    Always look on the bright side of life!

    [whistle]

    Always look on the bright side of life!

    [whistle]

  8. Boo fucking hoo. I said Bill Hicks ain't the messiah. I didn't piss on your children. Get over it.

    Like I said, people should stop acting like he is. IE get all defensive when soemone says "you know, I don't think he was as amazing as everyone says he was."

    I don't know about you, but I'm over it mate, I was just putting my opinion across, you seem more than happy to let everyone hear your opinion on the subject, I thought I'd put in my tuppence-worth.

  9. I disagree with you. He didn't think he was the messiah, far from it. He spent a lot of his act saying that people shouldn't be led by what others tell them, that they should make their own minds up. The only sad thing about that is that there were folk that needed to be told that in the first place.

    Too true, I'm personally a huge Hicks fan so it may be no huge surprise that I disagree with a lot of what has been said. Personally I believe Hicks was a great satirist of life, do I believe him to be some Messiah - no, However I do believe he had a great perspective with which to view life from. And say what you like but the guy was funny as fuck! Yes he used to rant at people but this was generally brought about by frustration at trying to get his message accross. Watch some of the clips on You Tube generally the people he's ranting at are fucking morons.

    YouTube - Bill Hicks Hates Hecklers

    Ok you may not agree with his opinion but at least the guy had the conviction and the balls to go out there on stage every night to tell it, incidentally a lot more balls than it takes to post a smart arsed comment on a message board. Ask any comic worth his salt and they will tell you Bill Hicks is still heralded as the comedians comedian. Is he the best comedian ever, probably not, but the guy is missed and probably will be missed long after we are forgotten about.

    YouTube - Bill Hicks: What is the point to Life

  10. It's not the worst idea ever. Dennis Leary as Bill Hicks would be the worst idea ever.

    I dunno, Crowe's a great actor at least. I'll reserve judgment until it happens really.

    I dunno Chris, Leary might be a good choice, he seems to have Bill's material down!! Haha! Personally I think Crowe's a ridiculous choice but someone's eventually gonna do it, I just hope they do him justice. But I really can't see it. On a positive slant if it get's more people into Bill Hicks it can't be a bad thing. The Prophet Bill will live on!!

  11. The current mania for CRB checks for everything isn't doing much good either - a good situation is that I'm a warden of my university halls next year. I have to be CRB checked twice next term - once for the halls, and once for a part time job as a tour guide for the uni, despite the fact that these checks just reflect a snapshot in time and don't cover anything that might happen afterwards.

    Is anyone else worried about what he's got planned??

  12. I know damn fine effort! Scary stuff 'She said he had a plastic bag containing his victim's ear, nose and part of a mouth in his pocket when officers arrested him.' WTF!! Was he planning on making a soup with it later?? 'Some passengers had been watching the film "The Legend of Zorro" on bus television ' Explains a lot!! I swear I was that close to doing the same thing! Antonio Banderas has a lot to answer for!

  13. When I used to carry 'a lot' more weight I used to get Uncle Fester, Leatherface and Pacey from Dawsons Creak not sure how they all link together but you get the picture. Yes and these were the suggestions of friends!! If anyone can mock up a hybrid of the three I'd be very interested in seeing it!

  14. They're fucking shit and they just get on my tits. It was annoying enough when it was just one guy playing a Les Paul with a bunch of dancing twats singing along to Paul Weller songs around him, now there's a guitarist, a singer and a drummer, and a bunch of singing dancing twats with tambourines and shit generally making a racket and blocking the pavement. They should get to fuck. There's much better entertainment IN the pubs, people.

    I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say your not a fan.... fair enough. I agree with you there most likely is far better entertainment in the pubs. But does it really affect your life that much for them to be out doing what they do? It's not like they are trying to throw an Aberdeen Record in your face everyday.... incidentally has anyone else been tricked into taking one of them while daydream - walking down union street and immediately try to find a bin when you realise what a complete waste of paper it actually is.

  15. The guys are Akraf and John, friends of mine in fact, while some may decry them for there song choices they are generally playing what the druken masses want to hear and have I'm sure brightened up many a drunks night out. If they upset you, move on, left foot, right foot...it's called walking.

  16. Hey big thanks to everyone who played the July Sessions, muchos thanks to Chris from Doolitlle's dagger who came down and took charge of the sound board. I'm looking for a few more people who'd be up for doing the August sessions (my last sessions before handing over to Emma Clifford). If you wanna get involved in any capacity, PM me or just leave a comment. Cheers.
