I have been an addicted DAOC player for a number of years. Last 3 yrs or so I have attempted to kick the habit though as I was out of control with playing this game and boozing at the same time. It was literally ruining me. I have always gone overboard. Moderation wasn't a word in my vocabulary. Anyways during the last 2-3 yrs I have taken up the guitar - finger picking blue style. I liked this style as I figured this was the 'root' of blues and I loved the old scratchy type blue songs. I combined this style with a kind of Jimi Hendrix approach where I memorized the blues patterns on the guitar (not at all hard to do). This enabled me to create my own music to suit any mood. Now though I am playing stuff that is downright weird - at least I think it is. I want to head for guitar forums and post stuff on there soon but hell I don't want to be ridiculed by strangers. I might as well get ridiculed here first. So what do you think of this style of guitar playing? I have lots of songs that I am going to record but you should be able to see how my playing is from these 2 songs. One is a slow ballad kind of thing which was inspired by a broken relationship. The other - well I heard some riff or other on the radio and created a song around it. It is a work in progress and is going - or was going - to be the background music for a Thid film (stretched to a 10 min guitar solo). So any guitarists amongst you. What is your opinion? By the way I am using a cheap catalogue guitar with very high action. I figure if I can play it I should be able to play anything.
4 min ballad.
7 min background Thid film music.
Activate the movies (video recordings to show style) by waiting for the timer to get to zero on the bottom of the screen.
I would have posted this in a music section but it seems to be missing from Freddys now. Progress sure is cruel at times.
