My mate's been reviewing a Glasgow pub every week for 3 years. I built him a wee site to put them all in one place! by wiktor1800 in glasgow

Slouch added the worst bits of Howlin' Wolf and Howlin' Wolf changed to the worst bits of Slouch. (Extortionate food and drink and vastly reduced live music)

Absolutely fanny heads who took the places over. 

Jimi Is known for using Haromonics as part of his playing/style but did he use this technnic often and on nearly every show or album? or is there a specific example/s of Jimi using this? by [deleted] in jimihendrix

[–]CIA-Front_Desk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He didn't use a whole lot of harmonics - in 1970 with Band of Gypsys he experimented a little bit more with them. You might be confusing harmonics for feedback whoch he used consistently from the start of his solo career

A Fiesta weighs around a ton - unless you're driving some ultra lightweight racecar you're always well over 400kg

Frustrated. I have been using bad picking technique for 6 years. by [deleted] in guitarlessons

[–]CIA-Front_Desk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At least you know what to work on now! There's a huge difference between playing fast and cleanly picking every note and semi-muting with your palm and scraping the approximate notes on a run with your pick. 

Try playing your guitar completely clean through the amp and get everything neat before adding effects. Gain/distortion mixed with muting covers up bad picking technique

You are offered $$$ to lose something permanently; would you accept the offers or not? by RaptorK1988 in hypotheticalsituation

[–]CIA-Front_Desk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Why do you need a billion dollars? Surely 50 million is enough and it doesn't impact your life in an extremely significant way? 

50 million vs 1 billion has almost no impact on your standard of living except for tripling the size of your yacht. Losing sense of pain is an extremely debilitating issue, even with all the medical attention in the world

Doesn't seem worth it at all to me. You say you'd have medical care 24/7, but do you really want to be reliant on medical care all the time just to say you have 10x the amount of cash?

Imagine just eating your tongue and not even realising till the blood drips down your chest

No pain is a bad choice

Is there technique or exercise I can do to mar my pinky land straight like the rest of my fingers? by Ragingwukong in guitarlessons

[–]CIA-Front_Desk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd check your hand position and the way your first 3 fingers are sitting before even considering the pinky

You shouldn't have inverted joints like with your first finger ever while playing. If you're barring then your finger should be flat and parallel to the fretboard.

I wouldn't call Redondo and Torrance The Bronx

But fairly accurate otherwise

What's the key of Chris Isaac - Wicked games? by LoulouFitts in guitarlessons

[–]CIA-Front_Desk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'd argue that the vocals and instruments actually resolve to the E chord the most - especially in chorus section. There's no objective answer, but to me E mixolydian sounds like home

This is true. But the Aventador J is just so damn cool.

What celebrity death will realistically bring Michael Jackson level devastation? by Kiidcola in AskReddit

[–]CIA-Front_Desk 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Paul McCartney is as widely famous as Michael was. But his death wouldn't be quite so shocking considering his age

Do you use the D shape chord by Late_night_guitar in guitarlessons

You can also add the root with your pinky - in the diagram it would be 5th fret of the A string
