I did mention Priest, I am a child of the 80s metal generation. So just about all the metal from that era. Toss in the classics from the first brittish invasion and the brit metal invasion, and the heavy 70s, stir it up really good with John Denver, Harry Chapen, Gordon Lightfoot, and sprinkel the Greatfull Dead across the top!   Current favorites: Hailestorm, Volbeat, and 5 finger death punch.

AWWW crap! That sucks! Ray was the musical master mind of that band!

Now I am even more happy that Skillrex was able to get Ray, Robbie and John together and had them make original music with him.  it was the first time they made new music in many yrs together.
I posted once befor, but this merits a repost:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mz7ZooGmx30

RIP RAY, now you have Broke into teh other side with your friend.

I would say #6  If your song is the same 3 chords, intermix open and power. adds dimension.

I am going to go out on a limb and ask if you have heard Judas Priest version of Green Manalishi?  Up untill a few years ago I never knew it was a fleetwood Mac song.

Jets,
No. there is no  replacement for a live person.  I do think that the apps can keep most people from getting bored with praticing alone.  That is what the allure of the Rocksmith programe is.  it makes it fun.  I like to have personal interaction,everyone does.  As a student you want the guy to say  "Not bad, but if you hold your wrist this way..."  My 12yrold just restarted his lessons.  He could learn from You Tube, or the $30.00 set of DVDs I bought him, but its not the  same.   

As far as the apps I have played with, they are not great. one is a nice chord notebook.  show you chord charts. Its not bad.  one other shows you scales and plays a backing track, its ok but not for a beginner thats for sure.

And for explaination of power chord, its not the 1st and 5th frets, its the notes. AKA a root 5th.  your 1 (being the root note and also played with your index finger) and your 5th (Usually played with 3rd or 4th finger)  an A power chord in the 1st position is

AND THE COMMON 5TH FRET POSITION
http://purpletigerguitar.com/wp-content … 02/A51.jpg  This pic shows the index on the low e fret 5 and the 3rd finger on fret 7 on the A string. also the pinky on d string 7th fret. you do not have to use the pinky but it makes for a heavier sound.
but that is the jist of it and about all the theory I can handel LOLOLOL

HOLY COW! I WAS CORRECT! I just didnt realize it was also a power chord! LOLOL love it.  glad I could help a bit (for once on theory)

+1 with BGD. Definatly blues based. lots of new bands are going back to that style. Im tired of teh bach rock 100notes a min that dont have any feeling.  (Halestorm  and Volbeat are some modern examples)

ONE VERY SIMILAR:
How To Play And Sing The Blues

    * Most Blues begin with: "Woke up this morning..."
    * "I got a good woman" is a bad way to begin the Blues unless you stick something nasty in the next line like "I got a good woman with the meanest face in town."
    * The Blues is simple.
    * After you get the first line right, repeat it.
    * Then find something that rhymes, sort of: "Got a good woman with the meanest face in town. Yes, I got a good woman with the meanest face in town. Got teeth like Margaret Thatcher, and she weighs 500 pounds."
    * The Blues is not about choice. You're stuck in a ditch, you're stuck in a ditch. There ain't no way out.
    * Blues cars: Chevys, Fords, Cadillacs and broken-down trucks. Blues don't travel in Volvos, BMWs, or SUVs. Most Blues transportation is a Greyhound bus or a southbound train.
    * Jet aircraft and state-sponsored motor pools ain't even in the running.
    * Walkin' plays a major part in the blues lifestyle. So does fixin' to die.
    * Teenagers and kids can't sing the Blues. They ain't fixin' to die yet. Adults sing the Blues. In Blues, "adulthood" means being old enough to get the electric chair if you shoot a man in Memphis.
    * Blues can take place in New York City but not in Hawaii or anyplace in Canada. Hard times in Minneapolis or Seattle is probably just clinical depression. Chicago, St. Louis, and Kansas City are still great places to have the Blues.
    * You cannot have the blues anyplace that don't get rain.
    * A man with male pattern baldness ain't the Blues. A woman with male pattern baldness is. Breaking your leg 'cause you were skiing is not the blues. Breaking your leg 'cause a alligator is chomping on it is.
    * You can't have no Blues in an office or a shopping mall. The lighting is wrong. Go out to the parking lot or sit by the dumpster.
Good places for the Blues:

   1. highway
   2. jailhouse
   3. empty bed
   4. bottom of a whiskey glass

Bad places for the Blues:

   1. Nordstrom's
   2. gallery openings
   3. Ivy League colleges
   4. golf courses

No one will believe it's the Blues if you wear a suit, 'less you happen to be an old ethnic person, and you slept in it.

Do you have the right to sing the Blues?
Yes, if:

   1. you're older than dirt
   2. you're blind
   3. you shot a man in Memphis
   4. you can't be satisfied

No, if:

   1. you have all your teeth
   2. you were once blind but now can see
   3. the man in Memphis lived
   4. you have a 401K or trust fund

Blues is not a matter of color. It's a matter of bad luck. Tiger Woods cannot sing the blues. Sonny Liston could. Ugly white people also got a leg up on the blues.

If you ask for water and your darlin' give you gasoline, it's the Blues.
Other acceptable Blues beverages are:

   1. cheap wine
   2. whiskey or bourbon
   3. muddy water
   4. nasty black coffee

   1. The following are NOT Blues beverages:
   2. Perrier
   3. Chardonnay
   4. Snapple
   5. Slim Fast

If death occurs in a cheap motel or a shotgun shack, it's a Blues death. Stabbed in the back by a jealous lover is another Blues way to die. So are the electric chair, substance abuse and dying lonely on a broken-down cot.

You can't have a Blues death if you die during a tennis match or while getting liposuction.

Some Blues names for women:

   1. Sadie

   3. Bessie

17. Some Blues names for men:

   1. Joe

   3. Little Willie
   4. Big Willie

Persons with names like Amber, Jennifer, Tiffany, Debbie, and Heather can't sing the Blues no matter how many men they shoot in Memphis.
