  1. Yeah, there's a chance you won't be able to learn a thing. There's also a chance you'll do just fine. Weird, huh?
  2. Some of the greatest guitarists out there were self taught, including Jimmy Page, Jimmi Hendrix, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Steve Vai, Alan Holdsworth...I could go on and on. I taught myself how to play but I had already developed an ear for music from years of playing violin and piano. I wouldn't say the odds are against you at all, you'll just have to put more effort into learning the instrument without someone there to guide you. Anyway, I suggest you buy a nice chord book. I don't know if you have an Android phone, but there's a neat free app I just found called Guitar Scales. You put in your chord and mode and the scale comes up showing you every fret on the fretboard. I also suggest you start with chords. Learning the chord shapes and being able to switch between chords fast and cleanly. Learn your barred chords and know where to play them across the neck. You'll be developing your strength in your left hand so once you start learning lead guitar it'll be easier. PM me or look for me on #ocremix if you have any more questions.
  3. Yeah, I use that kind of synth lead most of the time and people usually don't like it.
  4. Mass Effect 2. Played it THREE times this past week, thanks to the snow that hit us. Didn't leave the house at all.
  5. Good lord, this track is awesome! Those rhythm guitars sound really meaty. Tight-as-hell playing on the riffs. Reminds me of Nekofrog's stuff. Wish the lead was a little louder, but awesome nonetheless. That whammy pedal/killswitch bit was so great, too. Make more of this stuff!
  6. Whoa, that's cool. Never knew that. Thanks for the heads up.
  7. I like Amazon. Plain MP3s. Oh yeah, Rhapsody is actually pretty cool, too. You pay like $7 a month or something and can listen to everything they have. But, if you wanna upload something to an MP3 player, you have to pay extra for each track.
  8. Luiza and Stevo kept referring to me as a "shredder" in OCAD, so I just went with it. Also: I love this stuff. Always loved drawing dragons as a kid.
  9. Oh man, and something like this would be awesome as part of the logo or something!
  10. Well, I've always liked dragons with swords in them. Dunno about the tiger crotch, though. Dragons in general are cool. Especially when they spit fire!
  11. Mountain Dew Throwback fucking tastes like Diet Mountain Dew(MtnDew). Mexican Coca Cola is all over the place here, though, and that shit sells at 10 bottles for a dollar, too!
  12. What's this motif you want us to follow in our tracks?
  13. Vegas! Mexico! YEEEEAH!! This is a meetup I will actually be interested in YEEEAHHHHH!
  14. Massive slowdown on PS3. Horrible texture and shadow maps. I wouldn't get it on PS3 at all if that was the only console I had.
  15. Awesome remix! Love the guitar riffing, synths, tone, mixing, everything! Punchy-as-hell drums, too(Steven Slate?) This one's going on my cellphone for sure.
  16. Pfffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffft. I left them so I could do this!
  17. Well today I did exactly THAT! Except not Slashmang or Galaxymang. :tomatoface::tomatoface:
  18. Have fun doing other things, quitter!
