That would be good if terrible russian accents weren't the best bad guy cliche ever.

Yeah but in Die Another Day, it wasn't even a Russian. And the evil German accent in my opinion is the better bad guy cliche.

Chord charts. It makes life easier and teachs you almost everything to be a reasonable guitarist.

Dude. It is the closest the Bond character has come to the actual novels.

Since Dalton and the first to be more based from a novel since " On Her Majesty's Secret Service ".

Suppose in a way. I think it is when Bond get close to one of the girls and she dies are the films which show a lot more of Bond's character. And the fact that there was not too much real what the fuck impossible shit which in a way killed many other Bond films. (Except for maybe the scene with the poison, but hey)

Dude. It is the closest the Bond character has come to the actual novels. And at least it has gone away from all the Cold War stuff that the series had relied on for so long and found some new bad guys who were not Communists.

I saw this said in many "one use the the most foul of the foul words." What makes it more foul than some others? I really want to know what words they mean in the most foul of the foul words. Pity they don't list examples.

I would have loved to have seen one for "Tommy" with all of its god like symbolism.

Well this changes quite regularly in my case, but at the moment the main pump me up songs are:

Every Day is Like Sunday - Morrissey
Smokestack Lightning - The Yardbirds
10:15 on a Saturday Night - The Cure
Behind my Camel - The Police

Cause Hush is a fucking great song. The only better Deep Purple song is "Space Trucking." "Smoke on the Water" is over-rated. But otherwise that list is pretty bad. Maybe they should throw in a Dire Straits song. It would be fun.

And maybe make various other controlers and guitars in the game instead of just Gibsons. There are Fender fans out there. *Points to self*

NSFW probably, if your boss has an aversion to dark penis-like shapes.

Magnification works wonder huh....

Meh, he was doing it all wrong. I enter the schools Air Guitar comp every year. I normally come about second or third out of 20-30 people.

I win.

The rest of the band doesn't matter.

Yes it does. Elvis would have been nothing without Scotty Moore, Bill Black or James Burton.

Burton I'll give you but what do you have against Freddy Mercury? He was an amazing singer.

I have nothing against them both (well except for a slight hatred for Metallica), but I just think that the two together wouldn't work well.

I could name several great dead bass players.

Yeah well I actually look for this stuff as I am a complete music junkie who loves this kind of stuff.

The guy's in the damn band right now and he won't be in the Hall of Fame with them. That just blows.

Dude! Hager was not as great as Roth and Roth was the singer for four albums and was in the band from 1974-1985. And anyway it was Gary Cherone that was the singer in '96, and at the moment Van Halen has no singer and probably both Hager and Dave will go into the rock hall.

Eddie and the crew have made it! Van Halen are to be inducted into the Rock and Roll hall of Fame.

R.E.M and Van Halen, to be induced into the rock and roll hall of fame.

Oh what a glorious thing. Finally two bands that deserve the recognition have finally got it. Pity that Van Halen are in such a mess at the moment with no-one actually knowing who is actually in the band. But still it has brought a smile to my face.

Well. There is The Cure, and basically all 60's blues-rock like the Yardbirds. And probably heaps of other shit.

Well being a non-German in Germany everyone I seem to meet is a forigner.

That's okay. Here in Germany one has to pay to use a shitty (in more ways than one) public toilet.

Stamper!!!

They couldn't give it to any of the other admins either, because they'd be the same age if not older, so what would be the point?

As to give NG a cool new flavour!!

Serious as a fun police.

Fuck...all strings feel the same to me. Though flatwounds do feel slightly different to regular wounds...

So you can't tell the difference between heavy or light gauges?

Maybe I should start paying more attention.

Maybe you should.

Anyway, goodnight guitar crew ;D

goodnight.

I've never actually tried any other brand of strings but Ernie Ball... so I can't really compare.
But I've never actually had any problems with my Beefies :D.

To me Ernie Ball's have never quite given me what I wanted. And I knew that D'Addario's had a good reputation so I got some and I think I have a set of on my guitar at the moment. I would go check, but that would take effort. about 18,000km worth to be a little more precise.

And some pretty cool people use D'Addarios. Joe Satriani, Herman Li and my two of my heros Mark Knopfler and Andy Summers to name a few.

If they make Spider IV though, Spider III's will get cheaper, but that might not happen.

Look for demonstrator models. they are usually quite cheap and often have only been used a few times. My dad has got some sweet deals with demo gear. A Roland keyboard that retails at about $10,000 NZ for $7,500NZ being one of them.

In other news I picked up my guitar from the repair shop, it's good as ever with a new nut n all. I put Ernie Ball strings in it, and I'm not really liking them.

Please. You do what any good colonialist would do. Slaughter the bastards for being on your land!!!

I like the quote marks. heh-heh. ;)

They will know I will have the car. I mean who else is going to place every single CD in the car when I borrow it on the table and "borrow" my dad's CD of "Grean Onions" by Booker T. and the M.G.s. I want a CD to listen to on the way to the shop.

a $20 voucher for every $200 spent, so it will be a $220 binge.

Even better than I originally planned!!!!

Yeah, that offer is pretty boss.

Trust me. It is.

My biggest music binge was £200, but it wasn't bargin bin.

Boy, you are going to need a lot of bags. :)

Look. I can "borrow" my parents car for 2-3 hours no issues. And I just realised at the shop that I will probably binge at as there is a massive bargin bin area, gives you a $20 voucher for every $200 spent, so it will be a $220 binge.

I know. Isn't that just so cute?!

Ah. But this thread isn't about the songs. It is about the albums. The whole package. It's about the types, the names, the sounds, comparing albums and generally albumy chatter so no it is not cute. Cute is a massive stack of CDs.

Squeak!

Meow!

Do you know what I am going to do when I get home. Pay off my Germany debt (shouldn't be too bad) and then get $200 and go on a bargin bin binge and buy as much good music as possible.

He better of!!! I actually have hit a guy who asked me to burn a CD that I had paid good money for. The fact that my dad loses about $3000 a year in royalties for work he has done is probably why I am very much anti-piracy unless the Album is physically impossible to find.
