No? Then sit down and shut up!" >This is a case of "You can't appreciate what he's doing." This isn't necessarily correct. I've been playing bass for almost 12 years now. I can't transcribe Michael Manring's 'Monkeysuit Businessman', or Billy Sheehan's 'NV43345', or any number of solos from Vic Wooten. Does this mean that I don't appreciate it? Hell no - it's an insult to me to think that I don't appreciate the difficulty of any of these pieces merely because I can't transcribe them. For the record, Romeo SMOKES. His guitar playing is so friggin' fluid, it sounds like water. I first heard him on the Working Man tribute and was totally blown away by his tone and his ability. ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 7 Dec 1998 10:34:06 -0500 (EST) From: Paul Weiss To: "Ytse 'The Jam' Ventura" Subject: Resident Evil??

Message-ID: Hello My Friends, How are things? It occurred to me this morning that there are loads of musicians on the jam (mainly guitar, but bass, keys and tubs also exist). Many of us are probably between bands or just the kind who enjoy fluting with our instruments in the bedroom (??). Anyway, would anyone be interested in starting up some kind of demo/riff/whatever swapping site where we could bounce riffs, incomplete tune or whatever off each other. There are undoubtedly a number of highly talented people here on the jam who would be well capable of being part of an LTE kinda situation if only more of their like were around to help extract the songs and see them through to completion. I think a riff swapping site could help see a few of these incomplete tracks emerge into something with a bit more shape. One question is what form should the swapping take? I have a Tascam 414 which I know is compatible with the Tascam 424II. Does that extend to Fostex's line of multitrackers? We could post our riffs on a common site in MP3 form and contact the person responsible if interested in helping it develope. Another issue is who owns the newly developed riff/track? This I can't answer. We can all protect ourselves against loosing our own riffs to someone by sending a tape and tab of the riff to ourselves by registered mail thus proving that it existed before it appeared on the thief's latest album. Does this idea have a chance of lifting off the ground? Any thoughts/flames/mental abuse would be welcome, Rob. ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 7 Dec 1998 12:09:05 -0500 (EST) From: TheCowGod To: Multiple recipients of list Subject: Re: A couple album reviews from the Eckster (Nope, no DT here) Message-ID: > What made me attracted to this band (besides Tarja's picture on their > homepage....meeeeOW!) is Tarja's VOICE and her role as the lead singer hey no fair - you mention that and then don't include the URL? shame on you eckie :) > With her oprahtic voice soaring on top of everything, it turns Nightwish hmm, i wonder what Oprah would sound like singing.

Message-ID: You know, all this talk about listening to classically trained singers and vibrato is rather funny to me. I took a class in voice fundamentals last semester and my prof always made a big deal about how, if you were totally relaxed from the start, vibrato just naturally happened from the outset. Now, don't come to fucking flame me with all kinds of, "Well, now there's variety. Don't you know the importance of jazz singing?" etc. etc. etc. I happen to enjoy that stuff just as much as some of my favorite classical singing. However, I just thought I might throw this into the fire. BTW, has anyone noticed how Greg Howe's last name is almost however? Maybe his name was amputated as a child? Ponder this. Be well.

I dont even have to say how much ass that would > kick! I'm sorry for asking this question again, but in layman terms, what's the difference in a record of having a 7 string or a 6 string? I know the physics (which means that lower notes can be played), but how low are the notes? Any hints on how to identify when a 7 string was used just by listening to the recording? And another question: why is it that people always argue that JP uses a 7 string in a song or not? Is it much harder to play? These are some questions that I've always wondered about whenever this (recurrent, must I say) topic appears here on the Jam.
