Re: Parentheses in tablature?

Okay, got it. Thanks, Neil. (And Dermot.)
I kinda thought that meant they were tied, but I know even less about musical notation than I do about tablature. ;)

Parentheses in tablature?

<t>I hope I'm posting this in the right section. I searched the forum and didn't find anything. A Google search came up with some results about "ghost notes," but no real good explanation.<br/> I don't know anything about music theory or notation, and while I can (mostly) read tab, I "went stuck" on...

Re: Songs For Big Groups?

<t>Neil- Hotel California would seem to be a natural since your lesson is in multi-guitar parts. Some players use capos, others play the 12-string parts. It would be a blast. And don't forget rounds like Peter, Paul and Mary played. A great challenge after a few drinks is to see how many people can ...

Re: Busking The Actor (Moody Blues) by Neverfoundthetime

Chris- that was performed as only an Englishman can. I love that song and you did a fantastic job singing. What I would give to be able to get up to those Justin Hayward high notes...

B.B. King is gone!!

<t>WOW! I can't believe no one has mentioned this yet but one of the true legends of the blues has left the crossroad. B.B. King is dead at age 89. Not only a great guitar player but a great man as well.<br/> <br/> Do any of you owe any of your guitar enthusiasm to B.B.?<br/> <br/> Rest in Peace Ril...

Re: Busking Jethro Tull Aqualung Acoustic

<t>Marc- that was fantastic!! Well played. Of course I'm a huge JT fan so I love hearing this song i any version. I liked how you stripped out the rhythm part but left in the parts you needed. You were literally part of the band.<br/> <br/> Thanks for sharing! Totally enjoyed that.<br/> <br/> Cheers...

Re: RIP John Renbourn

<t>Very sad news. One of the greatest guitarists in history. Neil knew him well and has some great stories about playing and teaching with him. Maybe he will share them with us as a tribute to a great musician?<br/> <br/> The music world is much poorer tonight. RIP John and thanks for the great song...
