  1. Well, Cruzn and Dave, the answer is simple, you have "It". All the skill in the world won't replace "It". Good to hear about the Recording and subsequent gigging Cruzn.
  2. When I realized you only have to push down on the strings hard enough to sound the note. Excessive Pressure just deadens the note, wears out frets, Slows you down, and tires out you hand. Feel the neck, literally. Just touch it hard enough to feel it. The day I figured that out was the day I got fast and accurate. Then there was the day all the "Positions" just melted away, leaving one big scale all over the neck. The day I stopped thinking in "positions" and started playing the Whole Neck, I got better.
  3. Root Beer above all else, but I kinda like Coke better than Pepsi. Oh, Slash drinks Jack Daniels and smokes Marlboros, like a good Rock icon.
  4. Smells Like Teen Spirit - Nirvana lyrics' date=' load up on Guns and Bring your friends...[/i']
  5. I Hate Everything About You - Ugly Kid Joe
  6. I fought the Law - The Bobby Fuller Four
  7. Bang a Gong - T Rex {Lyrics} Hubcap diamond star halo
  8. That'll Be The day - Buddy Holly and the Crickets (It's storied that Jerry Allison and Buddy Holly wrote it after watching "The Searchers" staring John Wayne)
  9. I'd sponsor you for about Five Miles, but I need to know the cause. I won't give to the Heritage Foundation.
