h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

I have 2 electric, one acoustic and one electro acoustic. I can't play them all at the same time, but that doesn't stop me from trying

TK

ooooh I@ve just got a little acoustic one and I mean little the 12th fret hits the top of the body!

Aw, not a serious player then?

TK

nbot at all, my dad is and when me and my sisters were younger he got us the smaller one to try and get us to learn, somehow it ended up in my bedroom and rather than fork out an arm and a leg for a new one I just decided to hang onto it and teach myself using tab and stuff...think I'd be better at bass though.

Ok so I've changed my opinions somewhat now and decided now would be a good time to rehash?/rephrase??/redo! my top 10, 11, 12, whatever...

1. King Crimson: Red (Starless) [some things never change]
2. Brian Eno: Before & After Science (Backwater)
3. Nickelback: Silver Side Up (Never Again)
4. Audioslave: Audioslave (Set It Off)
5. Rush: Three Stages (Driven)
6. Holst: The Planets Suite (Mars)
7. Underworld: Dubnobasswithmyheadman (Mmm Skyscraper I Love You)
8. Genesis: Calling All Stations (Small Talk)
9. Marillion: Season's End (Uninvited Guest)
10. Weather Report: Heavy Weather (Birdland)
11. Faithless: Reverence (Salva Mea)
12. Fairport Convention: Jewel In The Crown (Red Tide)
13. Jethro Tull: Dot Com (Spiral)

Just noticed the conversation has shifted in the direction of instruments (AAAAAAARRRRRRGGGGGHHH I hear you say) does anyone know why a seasoned rhythm section like me and the drummer I know can't find a guitarist in sunderland who is (at least) as good as me on the guitar????? (btw I play bass in bands and guitar on my own recordings)

Why can't you get a guitarist in Sunderland...not a clue considering I'm up in Perthshire. Have you tried advertising? Like in record shops?

Yeah I tried that Everyone I find I end up teaching the D major chord (or sometimes Bb chord) to and then showing them how to do everything and waiting while they flail badly, sorry to rant like that guys I'll say no more about my guitarist seeking problems

mmm not so good then, nevermind.

What's not so good then?

I don't know anymore

Hiya, I'm back! Miss me?

TK

of course

Yey!

Whatcha been up to?

TK

I@ve got my business management exam tomorrow morninga...what do you think

If you're anything like me, you've been alternating between hiding in a cupboard, shaking, and making mental notes to yourself which go along the lines of "if I ever find myself in posession of a time machine, I'll come back to now and give myself all the answers."

Otherwise, you'd be doing something productive, like revising.

TK

if altering between hyper and panicking counts as revision then yes

Don't like the 'r' word. Second only to the 'w' word in terms of offensiveness

Hope you do o.k and it goes well anyway :D

BTW, shouldn't you really be revisng rather than sitting on here? Naughty naughty

TK

revisinng at liek 12o'clock at night? what would be the point in that, plus I'd had a bit to drink last night so it probably wouldn't go in.

I have half an hour at school this morning so I'll revise in the common room until I go over for my exam.

Lol, oh man, that's the attitude! Just sounds like an episode of the Young Ones! :D

How'd it go, by the way?
