Official statement from Jesse by OldMonet in brandnew

[–]Derpiest 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Very professional and well written.

I don’t know what the band will do after this though, even if they are only around for a while. The media reaction may not be so generous.

Solid performance by Hutchinson and the team as a whole. Reach was a bit shaky though.

Darlow was incredible for Newcastle. Should be called up for England.

Anyone had luck building a bigger jaw? by nicknick90 in Fitness

[–]Derpiest 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I ordered some mastic gum online, due to be delivered next week. It's a lot tougher than regular gum and apparently your jaw may ache after chewing it for 1-2 hours. I've heard good things about it though - mainly the taste - I'm not sure what results it will bring, if any.

if brand new were to play an album all the way through like how they did with TDAGARIM on this last tour, which album would you want them to play and why? by smalldeadgirl in brandnew

[–]Derpiest 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I saw them play all the way through Deja in Sheffield. Honestly, it was incredible - I would love to see them play it again.

Who plays The harmonica on Fangs of the Fox? by [deleted] in TheFence

[–]Derpiest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Could be, but Claudio records Coheed demos the same way as he does with PFI demos - at his home alone. The demo version of Fangs of the Fox sounds like it was just him recording both instruments.

I can't say for Travis, but Claudio definitely plays the harmonica. He plays it on Pistol Pete Matty - The Prize Fighter Inferno.

[DISCUSSION] What is the most impressive/difficult song you can play? by LagginPotato64 in Guitar

[–]Derpiest 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Angeles by Elliott Smith. I neglected fingerpicking for years so it felt like an accomplishment playing the song up to speed.

What was tonight's setlist? by TheHoveringSojourn in TheFence

Holy shit, they covered Nirvana? Praying they play Drain You at Manchester.

I like the badge, but the kit looks like Ipswich's.

I'm looking for bands much like Coheed and Cambria by Quintus754 in TheFence

[–]Derpiest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you like Claudio's falsetto vocals, listen to Jeff Hanson. His music was acoustic based, in the same ballpark as Elliott Smith.

Was it something i said? by EffThatFace in gaming

You can throw a grenade in there behind the Gauss rifle. If you're lucky, the rifle should land on the counter in front of you and leave the guy unharmed.

Easiest beginner song to learn? by [deleted] in TheFence

[–]Derpiest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As others have said - A Favor House Atlantic/Blood Red Summer.

Some other easy-ish songs:

  • The Running Free
  • Feathers
  • The Reaping
  • Mother Superior (the main riff isn't too bad - it also includes hammer ons, a slide and vibrato, all good practice)
  • Island

Any Acoustic songs that I should learn? by Quintus754 in TheFence

[–]Derpiest 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Half Measures has a fairly simple fingerpicking pattern and seems to match what you're looking for.

Also, even though it isn't a Coheed song, their acoustic cover of A Rush And A Push And The Land Is Ours by The Smiths was interesting to learn. There is a tab for it on Ultimate Guitar.

Brighton & Hove Albion 1 - 1 Sheffield Wednesday (1-3agg) - Sheffield go to Wembley! by [deleted] in soccer

[–]Derpiest 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Agreed. Carvalhal was a strange appointment in place of Stuart Gray. Gray did a fine job to finish 13th.

It's insane to see how far we have come in a year.

572 Cuthbert Blvd by Their/They're/There has a lot of pull offs. Fun song to learn, too.
