.Joel Posted July 16, 2015 Report Share Posted July 16, 2015 (edited) Personally I prefer live recordings of tracks, and if I find an album version of a song I like I immediately go on the hunt for a live, acoustic or unplugged recording. Share your favourite Acoustic & Live Performances of songs you enjoy here... Guitar at the end of this one may just get @jhn.holgate jamming in his studio...

jhn.holgate Posted July 16, 2015 Report Share Posted July 16, 2015 Guitar at the end of this one may just get @jhn.holgate jamming in his studio... Actually, that would have me looking around at my amp to figure out why my guitar sounded so friggin WEEDY!! I think this one's an exceptional bit of live stuff...

Clive Posted July 16, 2015 Report Share Posted July 16, 2015 Both acoustic and live, this is a local melbourne lad, my neighbour makes the guitars he uses and sponsors him to play, very talented player SoutherlyBuster 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhn.holgate Posted July 16, 2015 Report Share Posted July 16, 2015 Yep, that was a pretty damn good performance. Speaking of foot pedals - loopers - best thing since sliced bread. Here's a Boss Looper contest entry I saw a few years ago.... SoutherlyBuster 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoutherlyBuster Posted July 17, 2015 Report Share Posted July 17, 2015 (edited) Clive, brilliant piece of music. Was he using some sort of pluctrum, sorry don't know the technical term, one ones with a ring that you can sucure to your finger(s), because the sound was so sharp and crisp, don't sound like it came just from bare hands. PS. Just listened to looper from John, great way to have a one man jam session. I have some rather old equipment, Logic before they went to Mac on a Win98 system, too often than not, I get caught up in the technical woos then loose all the inspiration ... keep plugging away though. On my wish list, Pro Logic on the Mac, lots of loop capabilites, design your own synths. Edited July 17, 2015 by SoutherlyBuster Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clive Posted July 17, 2015 Report Share Posted July 17, 2015 Norm , as far as I'm aware just fingers, but he's fairly strong with the finger work, I've watched him play live and saw nothing then either, he has broken a number of guitars, hes not gentle with them ( understatement) The guitars aren't cheap, fortunately he gets them for nothing, the neighbour used to be the factory floor manager for Maton, and myself and a friend got the guided tour through the whole process, he works for Cole Clark now. Apart from promoting their products he gives them a hard workout to make sure they are up to it. I have a DVD and its fingers only as far as I can tell.

jhn.holgate Posted July 23, 2015 Report Share Posted July 23, 2015 Here's one I found a little while ago that I really like...the guitarist is John Petrucci, a founding member of Dream Theater and also has played on Jorden Rudess albums and tours with Joe Satriani on occasion.

Clive Posted July 23, 2015 Report Share Posted July 23, 2015 Not your usual rock musician........ He must have an amazing memory. Q .Whats the difference between a rock guitarist and a jazz guitarist A. A rock guitarist plays 3 chords to thousands of people, a jazz guitarist plays 1000s of chords to 3 people.

.Joel Posted August 25, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 25, 2015 They're good, I think they nail Smooth Criminal really well. Budget is blown by a factor of 2, no 2cellos at our reception Here's Sam Westphalen, if you listen to Tool you'll really enjoy his cover of Lateralus. Otherwise for something that more people may of heard, here's MC Hammer - U Can't Touch This. BigTone 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jhn.holgate Posted December 18, 2015 Report Share Posted December 18, 2015 Love the walkway! But the wings seem a little impractical to me - I can imagine them getting stuck in elevator doors and making using the ladies room difficult. Oh, wait, was I supposed to be listening to that?
