DT, they can write lyrics that don't suck from time to time . I actually quite like Train of Thought -

Queen - A Night at the Opera I heard Bohemian Rhapsody all the way through for the first time today and had to have it -
The Radiohead thread
The O' Sullivan Factor replied to PuppetKing2112's topic in Music Of The Spheres
eh... Hail to the Thief has some superb material (stuff like "The Gloaming") but it also has some real stinkers (stuff like "I Will"). While it's (of course) more good than bad I'd still put it after OKC, Kid A, and In Rainbows -

I'll suggest the Bends as well. Generally the album receives superb reviews (5's on nearly all of the Wiki links and amazon) and also I usually like starting into a band with their "breakthrough" album; and this is it. Fake Plastic Trees and My Iron Lung are two good introductory downloads if you're curious -
What the hell? some cops go on ego trips, that happens... check the fine amount and get some input from your lawyer. Some of you are acting like total morons, honestly the "child ran over" and "truncheon shot" comments were totally ridiculous and inappropriate. It's a single goddamn "?" on a plate. No additonal stickers, likely no covering or even intruding on any of the numbers whatsoever. A slightly rude sounding "get it off your plate" would've sufficed. Honestly. I'd hate to talk about the criminal offense of J-walking with you guys ("Oh God what if it was someone with an AK running towards your unsuspecting family!? if they would've patiently used the crosswalk you could've got away lOLOLOLOL111!!!!") If the cops in your area get confused between "GOTRUSH?" and "GOTRUSH" then in any of the uncalled for homicide/genocide situations proposed here you're completely screwed anyway.

What was the first Rush song you learned
The O' Sullivan Factor replied to theworkingman's topic in Making Modern Music
Well technically that would be "Between the Wheels", like 5 months ago (I'm a guitarist of 4 years) the first one I learned all but the solo to was "Subdivisions" the day I bought R30 -
QUOTE (Rushian King @ Mar 21 2008, 01:47 PM) BTW, the songs I listened to sound emo-ish to me. Whether they actually are or aren't would mean I'd have to care enough about emo (pro or con) to distinguish a difference. Emo is nothing more than that exact sound, I wasn't using Emo as a derogatory word (I actually LIKE some of it) just an umbrella term for a specific sound no more or less relevent than something like "New Wave". In my other post I was a bit hard on AFHA I actually really like that song. If you don't like those I can't think of anything else that would grab you immediatly, Coheed are pretty consistant quality wise for better or for worse here's one you could give a try I guess: The Crowing; Ignore the video

question on Spirit of the Radio intro
The O' Sullivan Factor replied to The O' Sullivan Factor's topic in Making Modern Music
Well this is the way I was playing before(and how I'll play it until I can get it up to speed otherwise): E-2-0------5-0-----2-0------5-3-0----- B------3-0-----3-0------3-0--------3-0 By not picking up to the "E" and instead doing a pull off to the open "B" I simplified it. The real value in the video (to me) was seeing the different kinds of open chords and sus chords and how he approaches the solo... Its valuable not because I'm playing it his way, but because I opened myself up to a new perspective of looking at the guitar. To PW: youre right except instead of hammering up to the 5th fret on the B string you pick the open E. Not that it matters, this is one instance where I think Roc is right and your way is more than fine. -

Damn thanks man! I just bought the SoR one (much to my mother's dismay ) thanks a ton! -
How much of it is picked? I play with all pull offs but obviously thats not right... does he pick every note? Thanks a bunch
