Anyone play guitar?
Does anyone else here play a guitar, and if you do what songs do you like to play? What kind of guitar? I like to try and play the Pillows as much as I can and I have a stratocaster. "Ride on a shooting star" by the pillows tabbed here, http://ultimate-guitar.com/tabs/p/pi..._star_tab.htm, if you want to play it.

edit: there's a pic of my apple-ized guitar in my blog, just fyi
I have a fender strat custom......pretty nice, but i had to leave it at school for the summer....bit of a bummer. I'd like to pick up an affordable acoustic guitar maybe
The best part to me is that I play in bands and gig out quite a bit.
Last weekend we played a a gig and we recorded it using my kids eMac, Garageband, and 1 microphone about 50' in front of the band.
It turned out pretty good some mp4's here
Just keep practicing and you get better and better.
Have Fun, RandyMy Bands homepage

JUST dont sell the CD, or the RIAA will be on your ass. Someone holds a patent for this!
I play a lot of Radiohead and Tom Mc Rae songs (Street Spirit from Radiohead always sounds awesome on my folk guitar, and The boy with the bubblegun from Mc Rae sounds just great) and loads of British/American rock songs...
I'm also part of a band (both guitarist and singer) called The Ones to Rescue (ohhh, now you understand my nickname!).
Here in Japan, I've bought a crappy folk guitar just to keep training a little... the rest of the stuff is back home (in France)!
- Dust in the Wind (for laughs)
- Plenty o' Metallica, but only with a guitar it sounds better I think without the other stuff.
- Anything else I like
I've got an idea, tell me what you guys think, you know how there are beatbox and vocal instrumentalists (whatever it is called), well what if you made a band made up of those. So one person can imitate a certain instrument while the other does another, and you can make songs etc. It should work if you were good

Oh yeah. When I was learning in the 1980s, we all played:
Dust in the wind
Stairway to heaven
Over the hills and far away
Wish you were here
I'm sure there are lots of others I'm forgetting. Anyone care to add to the list?

Oh don't worry, everyone's learning these ones even now! You can add Hotel California too!
Some nice low power chords:
Chugga chugga chugga chugga chugga, Don-Don-Darrr
Moving down the neck:
Raawwawawaw, deedle-da dwoawowa, doodly dodly
Then way up on the high strings:
wheedle-de, wheedle-de, wheedle-de, whoarrrrr!
(I swear, I was born twenty years too early)
Does anyone else find that the tabs on OLGA are incorrect with alarming regularity?
Anyway I just downloaded tabs from motleycrue.com, hey these guys actually dont fuck you for £10 for the tabs to each of their albums, they're free on their site.
I just retuned to drop-D, to play Uncle-Jack, Drop-D and mental fuzz is awesome dude!
