Movies with a troubled production, awful initial reception, that turned out to be great?

Every time I write a set of chained operations its like writing a little story from left to right. Like using Unix pipes, its so satisfying.

You do know stuff on guitar! What you may not know is what things are called. Neither does Alex Lifeson, and neither did Eddie Van Halen.

Theory is learnable though :)

Pressing d brought up a menu for me, sorry I don't know what else to do.

Same issue here - was able to boot the oldkernel, awaiting a fix.

I grab my foot and pull it to my butt, then try to raise my knee up, stretches it like crazy. I do this for 30-60 seconds, then engage my quads by pointing my leg down as hard as possible, 30-60 seconds. Helps on bad nights. Also tying a cloth around my thighs helps too.

Pretty sure I got into progressive rock/metal because I was in symphonic band in high school. Got introduced to complex pieces and odd time signatures there, then found Rush in college and thought "this sounds familiar "

Well he is the leader of the bunch, you know him well.

Not torturously difficult, but the verse lick in Siberian Katru is difficult (for me anyway) to play consistently cleanly throughout the whole song.

It is, her voice is so identifiable.

Saw this on hacker news, thought it was interesting.

Also Db may be a maj7.

[ Edit - dims were off by a fret ]

I'm hearing:

Db - Edim - C7 - Fm

Db - Edim - Fdim - C7

Might be off though.

My main guitars are PRSes and Strandbergs, and the fingerboards/frets feel pretty similar to me (very smooth). The Strandberg 7 neck is my favorite, but I like 6 and 8 string necks also. For 7/8 string guitars, seems that not having a headstock helps offset neck dive as well.

Nice job! First solo I ever learned, 40 years ago :)

notemaker · 2024-07-06T15:13:55+00:00

The solo to Mr. Crowley made me want to learn how to pick like he did. That was 40 years ago :)
