[QUOTE="DejaVu72"][QUOTE="Watch_Me_Xplode"]Alcohol and drinking, for one.LostProphetFLCL

I agree. Sure, some people can drink alcohol and not have a problem, but it's done mroe negative than positive in my opinion. Then again I am somewhat biased to this statement, considering that my parents don't drink, although most of my uncles, aunts, grandparents, etc. are alcoholics.

I would say its peoples lack of control thats the problem.

I drink without getting drunk. I control myself and I still have a good time.

You'd have more fun if you drank more, Pie.

No, cause then I would commit party fouls like you did.

I WILL NEVER FORGIVE YOU FOR SPILLING THE JAGR!!!!

It was only half a glass, and it was on matt, which was hilarious.

There was still plenty of Jack.

I like metal, I don't listen to it to be harcore, I listen to it because it sounds good. I am into lighter metal though (metallica, avenged sevenfold, judas priest), I don't like hardcore metal where you can't hear what they aer singing because they scream too muchDopemonk736

Heavy Metal is overrated. Power Metal isnt. I have yet to meet someone who has heard of Blind Guardian or Helloween. DragonForce is the most popular power metal band i've heard people talk about.

Jimmy Page is overrated, Jimmy is not. And I don't really care how complicated a piece is. If it don't sound good, it is worthless in my eye.

You can go on and on about how complex a musical piece, I really don't care. Something I noticed is that alot of times the more complex a guitar part is, the less soul and emotion it has in it.

DejaVu72

Right. Classical guitar has no emotion :roll:

Just because they don't turn the gain up really high and play very high notes in every solo in no way means that there is no emotion put into it.

John Williams is one of the most mechanical players I've ever heard.An example, yes, he does it flawlessly, but it's just so cold and sterile, music should be emotional, and human, and to be human is to be flawed,in contrast,I much prefer this rendition, theres just an inexplicable emotional quality that I just find much more appealing.

First of all, it's Nu-Metal, and yes, Nu-Metal does suck, but neither Dragonforce nor Blind Guardian are Nu-Metal. Both are power metal. And neiter are all that new anyway, Blind Guardian is from the 80s, and Dragonforce is from the 90s.

You weren't there on that bad night, I think that's why they've been holding back since. Alex grabbed Bridgette's Brest and passed out on the toilet, del puked all over the garbage can, and missed, matt slept with Bridget in the literal meaning, this is while he was still with his old girlfreind.

"What i've done" by Linkin park, John cena, batista, Harry potter, star wars, "If everyone cared" by Nickelback, global warming, Rey mysterio, Jessica Alba and even though I love this song, Daughtrys new song "Home" is so overrated.

I enjoy Jimi Hendrix's music, yet "the greatest" he is not.

DejaVu72
Rock guitar players like Hendrix are considerably different from clas-sical players. As far as I'm concerned, they aren't even playing the same instrument. Hendrix did amazing things with feedback and other aspects of electric guitar that are completely absent from people like Segovia. Segovia could not write Voodoo Child, and Hendrix could not write a clas-sical piece to save his life. They both show completely different aspects of guitar in completely different ways.

agreed, kind of, technically, it wasn't totally new, it was derived from blues, which was totally different from classical guitar, it was basically the application of african music to wester instruments, so when you talk about today, these classical guitarists don't have very much influence with the exception of some of the more complex metal bands, so if one were to cite the most influential player i terms of modern guitar, it would probably be someone in the vein of Robert Johnson.

If you two know each other so well, why do you communicate in threads? They make things called phones...or, if you insist on doing it online, instant messengers...or PMs, if you really have the urge to do it through gamespot for some odd reason.

[QUOTE="DejaVu72"][QUOTE="LostProphetFLCL"]

Jimmy Page is overrated, Jimmy is not. And I don't really care how complicated a piece is. If it don't sound good, it is worthless in my eye.

You can go on and on about how complex a musical piece, I really don't care. Something I noticed is that alot of times the more complex a guitar part is, the less soul and emotion it has in it.

MronoC

Right. Classical guitar has no emotion :roll:

Just because they don't turn the gain up really high and play very high notes in every solo in no way means that there is no emotion put into it.

John Williams is one of the most mechanical players I've ever heard.An example, yes, he does it flawlessly, but it's just so cold and sterile, music should be emotional, and human, and to be human is to be flawed,in contrast,I much prefer this rendition, theres just an inexplicable emotional quality that I just find much more appealing.

I disagree. I hear emotion is his recordings. I find that the reason that the point of criticism you mention is because he isn't one to move or make facial expressions when he plays, but as someone who has listened to his CDs, I hear much passion in his playing. Not his demeanor, but his playing nonetheless.

Considering the amount of practice it must have took for him to get to his level, I'm almost positive he must have a feeling for what he does.

Halo - I admit, I cant wait for H3, but paying 100 dollars for the oh holy "legendary" pack or whatever just so you can get a bunch of useless shwag you'll probably never touch is kinda dumb.

Lesbians - idk why, I like em and everything. Just think there overrated

Rap - Some of its allright, if its got a nice beat or a good message, but most of its like "yo yo check it, shiny watch, big cars,hos, money, beeeatch"

too much internet slang - I understand if your gaming because you cant waste time typing but i getmessages on msnfull of slang.

-Being worshipped for having talent for a certain musical instrument. I've never understood why a talented guitar player is so revered as opposed to say a talented pianist. The piano is a much more elegant instrument, yet you don't see nearly as many (if any)"rock star" pianists out there who are worshipped nearly to the same extent. There are those that are recognized for their ability, sure, but guitarists seem to be elevated to a status that transcends the very thing that got them to where they are in the first place.

[QUOTE="-MlKE-"] SOUTH PARK --- The movie is the funniest movie I've ever seen. The show has some truly great characters and episodes, but a lot of the episodes are hit or miss. While Family Guy, The Simpsons and Futurama are pretty consistent, South Park will have one awesome episode and then the next week the show will be painful to watch. There are too many hit or miss episodes to consider South Park among the heavyweights of the cartoons.

I can't beleive you went there, do you have any idea how hard you made me cry?:(

COMEDY CENTRAL --- The Daily Show and the Colbert Report are pretty popular, along with South Park. But other than that is there even anything on Comedy Central worth watching? All they show is awful stand up comedy all the time. BREAKFAST --- "The most important meal of the day" my ass. I never eat breakfast and I get by just fine. The only thing breakfast gives you is a stomach ache from the eggs. The food is good but it's just too early in the morning to eat and you definitely don't need breakfast to "get by" during the day. This breakfast is important nonsense was probably started by those damn Cheerios commercials COMPUTERS --- Let's not confuse the internet with computers. The internet is a great invention that people use everyday. but if there were no internet no one would use computers. If there were no computers people would still use the internet. Now I know everything (videogame systems, portable devices) are technically versions of computer but I'm talking about the PC's and Mac in peoples homes. Computers freeze, get slower over time and get obsolete after only a few years. CONDITIONER --- There is nothing at all wrong with good ole' fashion shampoo. Conditioner is just some gimmick that women buy that's a waste of money. BLU-RAY/HD-DVD --- There is nothing wrong with regular DVD and these new discs are just here to trick people that get all excited about their new HD-TV into buying them. Blu-Ray and HD-DVD are just glorified DVDs at double the price. SOUTH PARK --- The movie is the funniest movie I've ever seen. The show has some truly great characters and episodes, but a lot of the episodes are hit or miss. While Family Guy, The Simpsons and Futurama are pretty consistent, South Park will have one awesome episode and then the next week the show will be painful to watch. There are too many hit or miss episodes to consider South Park among the heavyweights of the cartoons. DIGITAL DISTRIBUTION --- I don't have a problem with people buying CD's off of iTunes or buying games off of the PlayStation Store, but if a computer messes up and a videogame hard drvies breaks then people will lose all the stuff they paid for. I personally like a nice hard copy of everything I buy.-MlKE-

Computers only freeze and get slower if you don't know how to use a one, thus loading it full of ad/spyware and viruses from looking at too much porn :D people overly exagerate how buggy windows is and they need to be kicked in the jaw for such stupidity. I have hit my computer very hard on occasion and could hear the hard drive click and windows STILL performs very well. Also, my "obsolete computer" that I built 6 years ago STILL plays current games on rather decent settings :) Just so you know people do use computers for games. What do you think drives the acceleration of hardware?? Could it be computer games??

[QUOTE="helium_flash"][QUOTE="rockguy92"][QUOTE="helium_flash"]

[QUOTE="Dopemonk736"]I like metal, I don't listen to it to be harcore, I listen to it because it sounds good. I am into lighter metal though (metallica, avenged sevenfold, judas priest), I don't like hardcore metal where you can't hear what they aer singing because they scream too muchrockguy92

Heavy Metal is overrated. Power Metal isnt. I have yet to meet someone who has heard of Blind Guardian or Helloween. DragonForce is the most popular power metal band i've heard people talk about.

I hate new metal bands like Dragonforce and Blind Guardian.

DragonForce gets annoying, but how can you hate Blind Guardian!!?? :o

I don't like any new metal or rock. I like classic rock.

Your sig reminds me of another thing.... Jimi Hendrix is EXTREMELY overrated. And so are people who listen to only classic rock and think today's music is all horrible.
