I'm listening to "2 Minutes to Midnight" by Iron Maiden right now.... BUT....
SHAMELESS PLUG DISCLAIMER
The following is a shameless plug for music I have myself written. As a rubbish musician you should be aware that listening to music I have created is at your own risk. Any time spent listening to my music cannot be refunded.
... I will be listening to "Searching for some other truth" at http://www.myspace.com/mawkish1983" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; in a bit. I have two version of the song there (one with a piano harmony and one without) and I'm trying to work out which one I should keep and which should be forever purged. I've put it to the public vote but so far only two people have voted. For more info, see the blog on that page.
What are you listening to at the moment?

Four types of letting go:
1) Giving; expecting nothing back in return
2) Throwing things away
3) Contentment; wanting to be here, not wanting to be anywhere else
4) "Teflon Mind"; having a mind which doesn't accumulate things

Ray LaMontagne is so ridiculously talented...

Wonderful tremolo playing!Individual wrote:

Many years ago, when I played the guitar, I never quite managed to make tremolos sound even - not even close to even ...
