I've always liked Alison Krauss and LZ goes without saying. I always thought the combination was a little wierd though. I guess I've held a bit of a grudge against the pair thinking Plant should be out with Led Zepplin, But after hearing thier performance I think I need to check it out. Yes The sound T bone had as well as some of the stuff on youtube sounds real good.
I was sort of the same way. They both have amazing voices... but not two I'd expect to mix well. I was pleasently surprised.

YOU'VE CURSED ME. I couldn't play anything right tonight. And God forbid a song have an Bm or a B7 in it. Granted, those are related to the Evil B, but aren't in and of themselves evil.

Too weird Bm's one of my favorite chords. Barre trouble perhaps?

Re: Do you ever have "One of those Days"? (29 replies, posted in Acoustic)
Some days you have it and some days you don't. Can't explain... well maybe someone out there would know how to explain it but I can't. don't get discouraged it'll come back again. One thing I do know if my fingers are cold or my fingernails or too long or some slight difference with YOU not the guitar it can make a bigger difference than you would think.

Re: Favorite bands and songs (13 replies, posted in Bands and artists)
you HAVE to check out the Raconteurs... And of course if you haven't the associated bands. The White Stripes and the Greenhornes are both great and so is Brendan Benson as far as that goes. Mars Volta is good, but its in spanish, and another one's Kings of Leon. Gov't Mule's one that I like but its more bluesy (well most of thier stuff is they're actually pretty versatile), but the guitar work is awesome with those guys.
And of course you can't go wrong with the classic: a healthy zeppelin collection is always a rock n roll essential 
Hope you find something you like,

Re: Dream guitar (16 replies, posted in Chordie's Chat Corner)
Well I haven't ever really got to play with one, but I have a friend who swears they're the best semi-hollow body out there so I've been looking for local dealers. I've always loved the sound of one, and the look... perhaps I would be dissapointed (not that I can afford one anyway). I'm looking at an epi archtop with dual humbuckers that seems like a pretty good deal for the price.

Topic: SLIDE--- on acoustic, some help please (6 replies, posted in Acoustic)
My dad got me some dunlop slides for christmas, one glass, one bronze, one chrome. I want to start learning to play this style... I'm assuming the best way is to tune it to open E, which I did like this:
E
B
G#
E
B
E
I've been playing 'In My Time of Dying" by Led Zep., and I have 'She Talks to Angels' by the Black Crowes... What are some fairly simple songs to learn that use slide in open tunings?? ALSO, anything if there's anything important I need to know, or even tips for a beginner anyone knows/has, I'd appreciate the advice.
Merry Christmas,

Re: I've been asked to perform at church... (18 replies, posted in Chordie's Chat Corner)
I play in church every sunday, but me and one other guitarist and a guy on bass did a special last sunday night and I was nervous too.... people at church are generally a very supportive audience though, and the one good thing is they're alot less likely to call you out on any mistakes than somebody say at a bar, or who payed for a ticket. One thing I can say from experience, you're wise to bring the acoustic, because you never know what kind of set up you're gonna get into. The one thing you DO NOT want is to have to plug into a sound booth that somebody else is controlling, i always bring my own.

Yeah i always moved up and down when i played cuz i thought it sounded different too... people started griping at me when i first started playing, told me you have to play right on the whole... but hey i was watching Lightnin Hopkins and he moved up and down too so I stuck with it. But yeah, there's a definite difference, to me anyway
