Bhairava	Date: August 13, 2004 @ 5:44 PM Hey I want to learn some of that stuff. I don't really need to play it practically so I can't really get a proper feeling with it. I can play quite quickly and can sweep pick arpeggios a little. But it is still in its early stages. Could you recomend some bands. I have a John Petrucci book and a troy Stetina book but I think I need to start listening and practising shred music. I would like to be able to do it even though I am a Hendrix man really. I'll listen to your stuff later I can't right now check out my thing. It is basically electric blues. I wouldn't learn some shred. To Shred properly you have to be really good other wise it sound fakes. Which is what put me off shred. However I think John Petrucci is really good. However I don't think he improvises his stuff and Improvisation is really important to me.

Bhairava	Date: August 14, 2004 @ 6:31 AM Thanks man, I'll record some shred for you later. I'm probably more of a Satriani shred man though just because of my style.
Bhairava	Date: August 14, 2004 @ 6:50 AM I'm listening to euphoria now. You've been playing for the same time as me thats pretty impressive. I've branched more into blues. I would like to learn scales of how to play metal sounding stuff. I just have no experience with them. You are really quite advanced for 1 and half year from listening to "solo". Sweep picking, tones of arpeggio's, leggato, trill, pinch harmonics, chromatic runs. I can only just play Erruption. You have a little Malmsteen in you don't you he is annoying but he is good at technical sides of things.. Do you have any tips for me? I think I just need to start listening to a bit of metal and so have a reason to play I think. I got to a point in blues where I found that everything I played sounded the same which I've got over now interesting chords help your creativity loads Petrucci is good listen to him. There is also something wrong with your tone. If it is your microphone try out a digital one I got one for £60 which is really good. If you check my track the tone is very clean how I like it through that microphone. My Jackson DK2S also has a lovely tone. However I think you are very talented keep it up much better than me at some things. Fur elise should have been played clean. Playing clean is very important I think and also getting different styles going. If you use distortion to much you can not articulate note properly. Petrucci plays distorted with someone playing clean as well so he get definition in the chords. He is a little to complex though at times. Less is better a lot of the time.
