hi jimmy, really enjoyed the track, who is nashjack? are you involved? loved the guitar and the vocal.

what do you mean not like UK cops? i got pulled on an empty road, miles of visibility doing (according to the cop) 76 MPH in a 60 MPH limit. cretin gave me 2 choices 3 points on my license and 100 pound fine or 85 pounds and sit through 8 hours of finger wagging...i paid the 85. but what a ****** he must have been bored

sounds like they have cops and cross roads in "sunny crete" then? highly enjoyable

WOW what an endorsement, thanks for that.

i did a little "demo" last night which i wouldnt play to my dog (i dont have a dog, but if i did....) so i know the format that i want to play and i'll get on it next week, baby sitting tonight, gigging tomorrow, sundays a day of rest. the wife goes out monday nights so hopefully i can get started then.

the songs actually in E.

intro; E-A-B-E||

verse; B-E-B-E-F#-A-B-E

chorus;  A-B-A-B-A-B-E|

solo; E-F#-A-B-E

great song, by the way, fab solo. i played it up the arm on the 7th frett for E & F#, in A shape, and B & A in E shape. you could also put the capo on 4th frett and play E in C shape, B in G shape and F# in D shape, the A would then be in F shape.

hope this helps.

just a note; the Em7/9 that i play is not as shown in the diagram, i play (more or less) a G chord playing D on the B string and playing the open E on the E string, so the chord name i have given it is wrong?

oh and it's a waltz

here's another thought, pick each string on an open note then again at the octave (12th frett) they should sound the same just an octave higher. there is also harmonics but unless you know what i'm on about then it's just more confusion for you. sorry, i have no wish to sound like a clever dick, but it takes a while to learn how to play harmonics even though once you've got it it's a piece of cake. search for "tuning by harmonics"

would someone like to tell me how i can find EB's music?  thanks

i've finnished the recording and put it on sound cloud, please click the link if you'd like to give it a listen

there are some strong emotions expressed here.

i was forced to watch last nights Xfactor while i ate my curry, i burnt my throat trying to shovel it down my neck as fast as i could!

what do that crowd of so called judges hear that i miss? they must see pretty faces first, slim bodies second then the voice comes a poor third. the saving grace is that next year they'll all have dissappeared again into obscurity, and the ones that survive will be game show or reality show hosts...thats your fate Xfactors.

rant over, they said guitar groups were finnished (to the beatles) then the beatles took ove the world, and we still know them and their songs today. i watched pink floyd in new york on tv the other day and the auditorium was packed. status quo regularly fill out stadiums. ok you may argue that neither band is a heavy metal group, but if YES can fill up a cruise ship every year, that tells me rock in any of it's "pure" forms is alive and kicking. it's just progressing, evolving and getting stronger.

LONG LIVE ROCK AND ROLL

grah, duhhhh, i do know my geography, even if i cant spell it...I, T?

honestly i was trying to inject a little irony.

we get similar problems down here in wales where councils are forcing pubs that have live music nights to employ licensed bouncers, effectively doubling the cost of a nights entertainment. they're just money grabbers, they seem to forget that councils were created for the benefit of people not the opposite
