I have been thinking of doing voodo child or the watchtower, my old guitar teacher (I teach myself now) told me I could play both with ease if I tried.

Very nice, I have been working on Watchtower for the last week and got the almost the first half down.

[TwistedSystem]

I would like to update my solos to crazy train as well, the song itself is very easy and the solo isn't very difficult.

I imagine you could play it, the song and solo are very simple as long as you know how to gallop, I think thats what its called.

[twistedblister]

if that is what the technique is then i am out in the cold on that one. as i have no idea what galllop stands for or how it is done

[TwistedSystem]

Uh I don't think gallop stands for anything, its just a fast paced technique so they called it gallop. You could still play the song without doing it, I just like to at the certain part (don't know if its the bridge or what) but you can still do it without galloping.

So I want to learn a new song and I was wondering if you had any suggestions. Im getting good, well I think im getting good so I want to learn a fairly difficult song that will allow me to improve, any suggestions?

What song do you have in mind? As for suggestions, learn to play it slowly, if you can play it slowly, you can eventually play it fast. the main thing is sticking to it.

[TwistedSystem]

Well I don't have any songs in mind which is why I asked. I can typically get the speed of the song down fairly fast so I work on the timing and playing it along with the song to get everything perfect. I have been debating making a youtube video of me playing guitar for awhile but im too lazy. Still Im thinking of something older but challenging. I have thought of metallica but I already know jump in the fire and fade to black. Any suggestions would be great.

[twistedblister]

electric ..... welll this is chord struming inspired but "Books about UFO's" by Husker Du i like it you can add whatever distrotion you like to it

acoustic well i dont have alot really "Good Feeling " by Violent Femmes if you want crazy odd chord switching chard Kat stevens or older paul simons
"50 ways to leave your lover" really odd chords and fast switching. this i am still stumped on

[TwistedSystem]

Well im starting to think about some avenged sevenfold, they have a really talented guitarist and a song like beast and the harlot or the wicked end would be really fun to learn.

[stickcult]

It amazes me how this topic has stayed on topic.

[cloud945076]

dont take it off. :]
i just learned Stricken by Disturbed. yay me.

[TwistedSystem]

Hmm I don't recall how that song sounds but I imagine it sounds pretty cool on drums.

not familar with that at all. my practice has tanked recently. grrrrrrr life i curse thee

[cloud945076]

ill post a video later...cant now cause im in school...

[twistedblister]

no worries. i am really devoting more time then I wanted to the tournament. plus i am preping at least an hour a day for my A+ update
I did tinker with ride on a little yester day. Big Balls is simple and fun. its mostly talking and the guitar hits the forth beat for a lot of the song but when angus young starts cranking its hard to keep up.
