RichCI Posted May 24, 2008 Share Posted May 24, 2008 The kid was making due with what he has and played fine even if his tone wasn't the hottest.

Perhaps its a generation gap thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
schizophrenica Posted May 25, 2008 Share Posted May 25, 2008 Well nothing wrong with the kids technique.. Maybe he just can't afford better equipments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thundergod Posted May 25, 2008 Share Posted May 25, 2008 Well nothing wrong with the kids technique.. Maybe he just can't afford better equipments. why would he bother? With his crappy amp and mediocre playing he got us looking at his video and talking about him... since the comming of youtube myspace and such things, seems like being a guitar player (or anything for that matter) has more to do with how many people know you play (however you do it) than how good you are at actually playing. now players are measured by how many myspace or facebook contacts and comments they have and how many crappy videos they post on youtube, regardless of them sucking big time... and on the other hand you see very good players that dont know sh¡t about making videos (but are great players) that get comments like "you suck, get a better camera" or "your hairstyle sucks, you suck, you look like you havent bathed in a month" and such... it is a shame what the world has come to...

[/quote'] Ahh, boys and girls that's exactly the point. Do you really think that talent counts in the world of "reality television" where we have the delights of the intelligent and thought-provoking people in the Big Brother house or shipwrecked island types? Don't forget the quality music foisted on us by the Colgate-smiling fashion models on Idols. In the world of the 2 minute hamburger the quick fix is king. Why pay your dues and refine your skills playing dives and small venues when with a click of a shutter, a flash of knickers, a flash car & clothes, and a Simon Cowell endorsement you can be the next best thing. Just how many of the legends we admire would be famous or even get airplay if they started their careers today? The trend is to be famous or rich, how you do is irrelevant. If that makes me old-fashioned in my thinking then in the wonderful words of Walter "I don't give a damn". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thundergod Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 very wise! i think less than half our heros would be legends if they started today, as more than half are f-ugly... really hehehehe and today theres no place for uglies on tv or youtube... (unless they need a kickass ugly scary mo-fo to play captain sparrow´s dad on part 3! (not known for using pauls but you got to accept he is one of the baddest out there)) what a shame.

Remember all those guys pretending they couldn't play lead guitar, so that they would be taken seriously and have "street cred"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thundergod Posted May 26, 2008 Share Posted May 26, 2008 yes i remember those days... i think the 90s are the worst days on music history... and everything happening today you can blame on the 90s... not that its entirely his fault but damn kurt cobain... do you think if he had known what he was unleashing he would have dressed like he did and played like he did?
