GlitzMan....yeah.. I know it's supposed to be my duty as an American to go vote, but another real factor is that I'm stuck at home with no vehicle and my two girls. Not that I mind but I'd rather be somewhere else working. By the way, I'm going to call Paypal AGAIN...as I have every day since. But this time someone is going to get torn a new ass. Almost 40 years ago we had men setting foot on the moon faster than they are getting this resolved. It's pathetic honestly. I'm about fed up with them.

Keniko - I forgot to post about this last night, but those covers sound great... Your band is really well rehearsed. It doesn't sound like you're doing cover songs, it sounds like you're doing songs you guys have written and have been playing for years. Very good...and your vocals are cool too.

How often do you guys play gigs?


Listening to: Dishwalla - Opaline (current song: Every Little Thing)

Excerpts from a Cat's Daily Diary...




Day 983 of my captivity

My captors continue to taunt me with bizarre little dangling objects.

They dine lavishly on fresh meat, while the other inmates and I amfed hash or some sort of dry nuggets.

Although I make my contempt for the rations perfectly clear, I nevertheless must eat something in order to keep up my strength.

The only thing that keeps me going is my dream of escape. In an attempt to disgust them, I once again vomit on the carpet.

Today I decapitated a mouse and dropped its headless body at their feet. I had hoped this would strike fear into their hearts, since it clearly demonstrates what I am capable of. However, they merely made condescending comments about what a 'good little hunter' I am.

Bastards.

There was some sort of assembly of their accomplices tonight. I was placed in solitary confinement for the duration of the event. However, I could hear the noises and smell the food. I overheard that my confinement was due to the power of 'allergies.' I must learn what this means and how to use it to my advantage.

Today I was almost successful in an attempt to assassinate one of my tormentors by weaving around his feet as he was walking. I must try this again tomorrow -- but at the top of the stairs.

I am convinced that the other prisoners here are flunkies and snitches. The dog receives special privileges. He is regularly released - and seems to be more than willing to return. He is obviously retarded.

The bird has got to be an informant. I observe him communicating with the guards regularly. I am certain that he reports my every move. My captors have arranged protective custody for him in an elevated cell, so he is safe.

For now................

Why do Americans vote on a Tuesday... in November?

The short answer: We used to be a nation of farmers.

The long answer: Congress chose November because the harvest was over and the weather wouldn't be bad enough to prevent people from traveling.

As for Tuesday, people used to have to travel overnight to their polling location. (In 1845, horse was the preferred method of transport.) In an effort to avoid religious days of rest, Congress chose Tuesday, leaving Monday and Wednesday as travel days. Tuesday was voting (and horse-resting) day.

DoTheStu....I removed the link because it went to my private Yahoo account. Which I'd rather not let the world have access to..lol.

One more and final comment about Democrats & Republicans. If they really want to sway people to vote their way, they should be out walking the voting lines giving out coffee and donuts to waiting voters instead of bad-mouthing each other.

Joe, I posted to you in here before the halloween show in orlando... Isisuma & I saw you at Ruth Eckerd Hall in Clearwater, FL AND at HoB in Orlando, FL (Halloween) We had signs in our hand (I mentioned in that other post on this date: Thu Oct 30 '08 11:31:03 am) http://www.satriani.com/perl/2002/ttj/main?thread=1&age=&author=slade1&search_str=halloween&mpp=25

Both shows were GREAT! Halloween we were right out in front of you say about 3 - 4 people back in the croud. I also had a chance to shake Jeff's hand on Halloween during the day before the show. Great work as usual guys... Next time I am getting meet & greet so Joe can sign my js1000bp... Here's hoping... :) Cheers!

DoTheStu..... No prob....

Thanks for the compliments on the songs amd my vocals. It's funny you mentioned they sound like our songs cuz we played last Sat. and two fans said the same thing. Again, the songs were recorded "live" in my studio. The only tracks that were rerecorded were the vocals for obvious reasons. We recorded seven in all and we'll put more up soon. As for playing out. We're averaging around two gigs per month but are working on more. One of the reason for the demo is for club owners interests. So far so good as we've ben' invited back to most of the clubs we've played at.

Everyone !!!!!!..... We're trying to get as many votes as possible so please vote......for Max Cady Band and for the president....lol..

Vote for Max Cady Band under ac/Hot/ac New Group category. Thanks so much.......

the 3 guitar grimoire books are very good theroy wise and progression and scale wise, you can use scale knowlede to help you build a better solo, but they won't help you put a solo together.

Kenico:As you well know, i cut my baby teeth playing Lynyrd Skynyrd songs at the ripe ol age of 10 & I know from playing the track I Know a Little just how tricky that guitar part is let alone take on the piano solo so first of all bravo! Or is that braveohh!Dont know if you want my opinion or not but here it is anyway:0

The bass player needs t learn the correct bass notes for the verse parts & make it “swing” that is the whole essence of the track, when he gets that together & the drums follow the track in total makes 100% more sense, If that swing in the track is not there, the whole band will feel “atypic 4 t floor yet another cover cant wait for the next track get our money n go home” instead of really enjoying the moment buzz of it, that’s my only criticism

Btw your tone attack & feel for that track is A1!

Best o luck Ken

onwards

BRITTANYSDADDY:learn an Irish/Scot jig or reel on an acoustic, its melodic & its a whore of a workout plus if y can play it well someone else buys the beers....if y play it really well y get laid n all kinds o stuff happens..Al might even send y his used slippers if yer lucky

BRITTANYSDADDY>M Hedges was great but if you really want t learn you have t go t the source

here ya go

It really doesnt do Arty Mcglynn any justice but anyone in the know understands he really is second t none

the art of both celt tune & rhythm on guitar.... sorely underestimated! take it from me, i,ve been there

i,ll be putting up some ytubes next year on it watch this space
