  1. 1: Paul McCartney can't read music!?!?hahaha wow! learn something new everyday! :P

    as in A Whiter Shade of Pale, Procol Harum's performances of a Bach bourrée

    I don't recall hearing any of that in that song.

    A "bourree" is much like a Gavotte, or double time dance piece. Jethro Tull, on the other hand, DID use "bourree". They just took the straight 8ths and made them swing. Which was pretty damn cool. ;)

  2. Eddie Lipshit and the Momma's boys

    or

    (and just for bokonon)

    Lexicon

    or

    Hummus Humongous and the (soy)Cock-rockers

    Although you may want to ask 'ersh about the perils of naming your band after a fictious person :)

  3. Hot Damn! now THAT was a show!!

    The Mighty Swift tore the roof of the place! Good crowd, awesome sound (LOUD BABY WHOO!) there was almost a dance battle between boko/baldonon and afropoppa but no dice ;)

    The boys looked really happy... especially after the "foam cannon" and what Mike now calls "The new worst gig we've ever played"

    I've got pics, but most of the frames are taken up by some giant afro :P

  4. You are correct. The five chord of both Major and minor keys is a dominant(Major scale with a flat seven)chord. The "7" is referring to what type of extension it is going to be. A "7" just on it's own denotes(punny!)that the seventh above the root© is going to be minor. If you see (Cm7) it means that the chord also has a minor third as well as a minor seventh.

    Depending on the tune your playing, a major pentatonic(1st,2nd,3rd,5th,and 6th tones of a major scale) will work well. Especially if it's a blues, since the tendency is to use dominant 7 chords for I IV and V.

    If you think you hit a wrong note, hit it again and make people believe you meant to do that.

    Once is a mistake, twice is jazz!

  5. Hahaha! Those bands remind me of two things: Canadian summers and certain types of people from the browntown. Usually guys named "Rick" with porn 'staches and waaaay to short jean cut offs. Usually found riding to and from the beer store on a ten speed with the bars up and their mullets flowin in the breeze...

    Metal or die!

  6. It wasn't a matter of hearing one band or the other(I was there too),it was Wassabi showing disrespect to Friends of Hefner by "not gettin off the stage" as it were. Wassabi already had a slot to play that night. Let another band play.

  7. The fact that did the musical equivalent of "cockblocking" to the band that was playing in the Saloon is what turned me off about Wasabi. They already had their time on the stage that night. To do what they did is disrespectful and rude.

    but hey, the marimbas were neat.
