I'm gonna construct a guitbass. lord_alucard will make a basitar. Together we will ROCK.

Anyone know how to play no-string drums?

[UPDATE]I want to run out to a pawn shop today and pick up an old beater, something I'm not gonna feel bad about potentially fucking up as I try to modify it for the higher-guaged strings. Although I've been looking around for ( Read more... )

Short version: I snapped two more guitar strings.

Long(er) version:

I just got home and proceeded to practice the sweet new licks I learned for BNL's Wind it Up. It's one of my favorite songs from the album, and I'm just pleased as shit that I can make my scratching sound even remotely like the recording -- so pleased, that I killed the hell out ( Read more... )

Nagasaki was brimming with festivals while I was there. After Kunchi were many other smaller celebrations. Gaitan exchange students were invited to Siebold Univeristy's sports festival, while our school also had a festival where students were able to share cuisine... and musical tastes!

You know all those months I would go to work for 8 or more hours, slave away, and then come home and do Don't Hang Me for 8 hours or more, five times a week, and then maybe only sleep 3-4 hours a night? I think it's catching up with me. Now I only have 3-4 of barely-conscious pittering about before I pass out and wake up in time for work. On the ( Read more... )

I broke a guitar string.

Time for a whole new set. The ones that the guitar came with really sucked anyway.

This is the price I pay for rocking so hard.

1) A story from Sabrina's neck of the woods.

2) My guitar came yesterday. Now to figure out how to get the tremelo working. Note: I still love my delicious bass to death, and it's still my instrument of choice (for instance, I'm actually able to play it), but the desire to rock out is just too strong not to have the avenue open to me.
