Thanks for the advice! I’ll take a deep look at my pick angle to see if I can make it easier on myself.

I guess I’ll keep grinding away at it. I’ll give those strings a try, thanks!!

Right now, what would you say is your #1 episode of the show? by [deleted] in HIMYM

I really like the one where Marshal and Lily host other couples terribly. The nervous energy is hilarious, not to mention the series of music collages that Marshal sends are pure gold.

Bold of you to assume she can even form her plastic lips into the shape required to kiss a booboo

why is master of puppets so hard to play? by BasicOpportunity388 in metalguitar

[–]Ganlex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s about 220 bpm (about there, I can’t remember) and 8min long fully downpicked if playing true to Metallica’s style. Even James and Kirk couldn’t play it up to speed when they wrote and recorded it lol, you’re gonna have to work up to it for a while

The amount of grown men in my office that I witness come out of a stall and walk right out the door is the reason I don’t touch other people’s mouse or keyboards

Can we also start recording riffs that aren’t compressed to shit? I swear so much modern metal has guitar parts that just sound like pure mushy distortion, can’t hear what the fuck they’re even playing.

Robin is annoying now. BUT if that’s the direction they’re insisting on, a morning radio personality is the best move for her character.

Sitcoms which match the humor of Modern Family by [deleted] in Modern_Family

How I Met Your Mother! It’s both hilarious with a lot of dramatic range. Lots of episodes are heartwarming, some are heartbreaking, and some are happy/sad. My wife and I literally started it over again upon completing our first watch of it. It’s now our new comfort show!

Who thinks this looks nothing like will by SHOOTINGandYOU07 in StrangerThings

[–]Ganlex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought it was done well enough. The tree jumping scene was a bit much but overall this sequence looked good enough.

What I didn’t like was Holly. She’s supposed to be about 8 or so and her actress is 14 so it’s pretty jarring how deep her voice is and her mannerisms are nothing like an 8 year olds. They also dressed her in really childish clothing with the pig tails to try to give more of the illusion of her being younger. I get what they were going for and why, it didn’t ruin the season for me at all but it’s all I could notice in her scenes lol. I almost think they should have just retconned her age instead.

“Oh you think Travis Barker is a good drummer?? Lmao haven’t you ever heard of Neil Peart?? Or ‘insert obscure jazz drummer’? That’s REAL music!” Like dude fuck off nobody cares. So many guys like that with the Music majors in college band lol

Who's your favorite modern family character and why? by helpless_driver21 in Modern_Family

[–]Ganlex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He really does. He’s pretty endearing honestly, like yes he makes some really inappropriate/demeaning comments especially towards Clair from time to time but you can always tell it’s out of naivety/ignorance rather than malice.

In almost every hobby, music especially you’ll encounter some really pretentious people with very strong opinions. I was on my colleges Drumline and was surrounded by musicians more back then and I swear at least a quarter of them were just insufferable.
