I just saw a bass community made, join us at [email protected] and we’ll be a crowd of three!
I got tired of being sloppy chunking out power chords and generally being really stiff when playing fast rhythm guitar, so a couple of weeks ago I decided to start working on a couple of Iron Maiden songs through Rocksmith, building up the speed and consistency in rhythm guitar.
So far I think I’ve got some pretty good results already, although most songs aren’t really clean at full speed yet. Rocksmith seems to be a really good platform for this kind of practice, since it makes looping sections at slower speeds so easy.
Currently I’m psyched about Rime of the ancient mariner, it’s got such a nice combination of medium-speed gallop and single note lines. Be quick or be dead and 2 minutes to midnight main riffs also make me feel awesome
I’m even a little suspicious that Twitter style messaging has played a part in “gotcha” politics that seem very popular everywhere, where some populists manage to gather a large following mostly by just using slick one-liners with relatively little substance.
Now sure, these have always existed and will likely exist, but I seem to see more and more of them with ever bigger popularity.
Cool! Interested in learning what kind of approaches you are taking in tackling that massive project
