Okie dokie. I got a new camcorder thang for Christmas. It takes great video & is the size of a cell phone. I'll post a video of me playing, as long as ya'll promise not to laugh at my feble playing abilities. Remember, I didn't even pick up a guitar until I was 33 years old.


Hey GTSP,

No problem, we all started at one time or another. I been playing close to 20 years now and I still don't like to show anybody my soloing abilities, because it's sub-par in my opinion, at least compared to what I can do on rhythm.

But just think of it this way, if we laugh, just think of it as were laughing with you, not at you. ;) and if someone is laughing at you, you can't see them anyway, lol j/k.

In all seriousness, back in 2000 my band was playing a show, and we got a friend to record it on his camcorder. And we watch the video a few days after the show and well... you know sometimes between songs everything gets quite and all you can hear is the audience? Well right there on tape was two girls talking, and one girl said to another "what do you think of this band? I think they're pretty cool" and the other girl responded "oh my god! this band sucks sooo bad!" so nothing is more humbling then that, lol.
But I still think it was a good show myself despite some disapproval among the audience. ;)

true story btw ;)
Cheers,

Thanks Veenture, I looked up a few of their songs quick and will be listening to them some more before I really give an opinion of their music. That's one thing about me, I give music a lot of time to grow on me before I make up my mind about it. It took me over a month to really like the band I linked to and I was listening to one of their albums every day or so. I'm glad I took the time to appreciate their music.

Hey Tim, have you seen Ray Davies lately? I'm sure the Kinks were on acid ;)

Yeah, you're right -I should have said the Kinks played at 78, instead of 45 (for those of you that remember vinyl?)

If I had a vote in other color options it would be gold and sunburst since a sunburst was so uber rare on the original versions.
