AD Posted September 5, 2007 Report Share Posted September 5, 2007 So I've never seen him live and am super pumped for the 19th, but I question I've had for a while is: how is the guy on guitar? I can hear the pedal steel and two guitars on the summer 07 recordings. The two guitars are good for sure, but i can't pick out which one is which... so.... is the guy as good a guitar player as he is a singer? hehe. tough one...

SmoothedShredder Posted September 5, 2007 Report Share Posted September 5, 2007 He's as good as Jeff Tweedy at Rhythm Guitar IMO. Better singer. Take it or leave it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AD Posted September 5, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 5, 2007 that's high praise, as tweedy is criminally under-rated as both a lead and rhythm player. his solo shows are great showcases for him.thanks dude Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SmoothedShredder Posted September 5, 2007 Report Share Posted September 5, 2007 The Cardinals are a TIGHT band. Have you seen the quotes where Ryan says we don't even play for the audience anymore... "we play for ourselves."His solo singer/songwriter stuff is a good showcase of Ryans skills too. Have you heard any of "Exit Nashville"? Gillian Welch makes a guest appearance.

AD Posted September 5, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 5, 2007 oh they are super tight. i've been listening (almost exclusively) to the summer 07 acoustic shows and i'm floored everytime, mostly by the group's singing. then the guitars get me, then the steel, then the piano............

AD Posted September 5, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 5, 2007 booche, i gave you an opportunity to rant about ryan adams and all you can do is post a picture of the yankees? what the fuck man? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdamH Posted September 5, 2007 Report Share Posted September 5, 2007 Tweedy is a sucky player but he's gotten much better.Ryan Adams is a decent player of G - Bm - C and D but his skills in other facets really make the chording a backseat thing.

AD Posted September 5, 2007 Author Report Share Posted September 5, 2007 Tweedy is a sucky player but he's gotten much better.sucky? depending on the frame of reference i guess it's possible (he's no malmsteen), but still that's a tad harsh. every show i've seen or heard he plays very well. heard or seen any of his solo shows?

SmoothedShredder Posted September 5, 2007 Report Share Posted September 5, 2007 Hehe... in that Exit to Nashville Bootlet, Ryan Adams eludes to the fact that he just got his first song book published, and that meant that he just got his "Art Fag" card. Still didn't get him any discounts though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
