It's dark, it's December, it's Friday Night. It's party time, alcohol helps you feel all right. It's the Friday Night Guitar Thread. Lets make some music tonight. Any instrument, any skill level. All are welcome. Music is for sharing.

Once again, it's time for the FNGT!

If you don't know how this works, click this link. That link will take you to another site to give you some additional information and tell you about some of our off-site features. That's also the site where we will host the weekly guitar threads, should Talk.lol go down.

NOTE: That site is by invitation only. If you want an invite, ask a regular participant (such as @TheRealBuddha or myself)

If you already know what's going on, you probably don't need to click any of those links. You can still visit to see if any changes have been made, as that's also where we kept the archives and have a second forum.

By the way, we're down to just two of us. If you want to help, let us know.

I barely have connectivity and I have nothing new.

Enjoy some Eric Clapton.

LOL He messed up the lyrics in the very first verse. Alas, Biff isn't here today. She's out with her half of the family. I didn't feel like leaving the house this afternoon, so I stayed home. She's got a license and car. She can get there and back without getting lost. So, I'm happy to have the alone time.

I saw something that gave me an idea.

Do you remember https://musicfor.us?

Well, Google changed some of their settings and now the site is getting a little bit of traffic.

If you wanted to take over the site and start writing articles for it, you could trivially add Google Adsense for publishers and maybe make a tiny amount of money, depending on how many visits you get.

You'd need to start writing articles on a regular basis but the topic is music so that's a pretty much unlimited source for articles - specifically music history, more specifically the history of rock and roll.

You'd then add ads to the site. It's trivial to do so. The site was approved at one point and showed ads. It got very little traffic. You'd have to figure out how to use WordPress, but you should be able to figure that out on your own pretty quickly. If not, you have me that you can ask for help. I'm pretty fluent with WordPress, though I'm not really an expert.

I already pay for the hosting, so you don't have to worry about that. If you do start making mad money, you can pay for the hosting. The hosting has other sites on it, so you'd only have access to WordPress.

I do remember that site, I have not looked at it for a long time. I have to go with my sons to visit my mother here I will take a look later when we return

[ - ] TheRealBuddha 1 point 5 monthsDec 9, 2023 18:02:23 ago (+1/-0)

It hasn't had an update since COF passed.

His family pissed me off.

If you do decide to try this, I'm going to stab at his family pretty hard first. We'll go from there.

[ - ] Sleazy [op] 1 point 5 monthsDec 9, 2023 19:07:52 ago (+1/-0)

I'm still with my mom

[ - ] TheRealBuddha 1 point 5 monthsDec 9, 2023 19:26:12 ago (+1/-0)

I even recovered the image I need, should you take the site over.

[ - ] Sleazy [op] 1 point 5 monthsDec 9, 2023 20:23:53 ago (+1/-0)

What do you mean, an image you need?

[ - ] TheRealBuddha 1 point 5 monthsDec 9, 2023 21:05:43 ago (+1/-0)

I have a picture of text where COF said a specific relative would pay the hosting bill every year.

They never paid it and ignored all my emails asking them to do so. I've paid the hosting bill on their behalf.

He even confirms the relative's name and indicates that his relative knows they'll do this.

So, his family basically lied to him when he was on his deathbed. That's pretty shitty - and I know he left them enough assets to more than cover the paltry hosting bill.

[ - ] Sleazy [op] 2 points 5 monthsDec 9, 2023 21:42:28 ago (+2/-0)

Thats shitty. They must have just told him what he wanted to hear so they wouldnt lose their inheritance.

[ - ] popticalillusion 1 point 5 monthsDec 10, 2023 17:55:09 ago (+1/-0)

I like the live sound of his singing, but I think it would have been better to multi-track his singing over the rest of the music. The track is a little low on volume too, but I just cranked mine up to play it at a decent volume. Good stuff!

[ - ] Sleazy [op] 0 points 5 monthsDec 11, 2023 01:21:06 ago (+0/-0)

Yeah, I could have done that better but we were getting all drunk and I just wanted to capture it quick

[ - ] popticalillusion 1 point 5 monthsDec 10, 2023 17:36:59 ago (+1/-0)

Beautiful! The way you all record really shows off the skills you have. I want to do some like that, but I have to hide my mistakes with the rest of the instruments playing. LOL.

My first band learned this for so people could dance to a good slow song. It's great to have something the crowd can enjoy or else they'll lose interest.

[ - ] TheRealBuddha 1 point 5 monthsDec 10, 2023 17:46:41 ago (+1/-0)

It's a pretty solid song and great for slow dancing. When we perform, we try to put a few slow songs together to give it a sort of 'slow dancing break'. So, we'll do a few slower songs, typically in the 2nd set.

It's a easy enough song to learn - but not so easy to learn to play exactly right. So, if you nailed that then you did alright.

[ - ] TheRealBuddha 1 point 5 monthsDec 11, 2023 18:37:10 ago (+1/-0)

Holy shit... Tomorrow's article is almost 1500 words long.

I've done a lot of long-form articles lately. This one is pretty damned long, however. I don't normally make them quite this long, but it's not an easy subject to describe. It's an easy subject once you understand it, but helping you understand it is not an easy task.

It doesn't help that the variables are confusing and similar to one another.

Well I've had enough to drink. Maybe I should share my music https://soundcloud.com/turtlewriting/sets/severance

[ - ] Sleazy [op] 2 points 5 monthsDec 9, 2023 02:42:39 ago (+2/-0)

Is that really you? Holy fuck dude! You're fucking great!

[ - ] popticalillusion 0 points 5 monthsDec 10, 2023 18:10:46 ago (+0/-0)

That was really awesome! The sound of the recording was great, the dynamics of the playing, and the talent too!

[ - ] Sleazy [op] 6 points 5 monthsDec 8, 2023 20:01:37 ago (+6/-0)

Hello everybody. Its Party Time and my buddy Chris just got here so we are going to go out back into the studio and jam. I'll have something brand new shortly, soon as the beer gets here.

[ - ] popticalillusion 1 point 5 monthsDec 10, 2023 18:00:15 ago (+1/-0)

Pretty great stuff! The lead guitar is some pretty wild stuff too. I'd hate to try that one live, even if I could still play stuff like that. LOL

[ - ] Sleazy [op] 0 points 5 monthsDec 11, 2023 01:19:46 ago (+0/-0)

Thanks! I have thought that would be a great one to open a show

[ - ] Sleazy [op] 5 points 5 monthsDec 8, 2023 21:36:27 ago (+5/-0)

Chris and I just played a Christmas Carol, punk rock style, The First Noel

[ - ] popticalillusion 1 point 5 monthsDec 10, 2023 18:17:29 ago (+1/-0)

I like that version, but I think the singer died before the end of the song. LOL I'm playing Christmas songs like that on my radio station through the 30th. They fit the music I play better anyway, so I am all for Rocking Christmas songs.

[ - ] Sleazy [op] 0 points 5 monthsDec 11, 2023 01:20:20 ago (+0/-0)

Yeah, something was going on with him, but hell with it! That's what you get!

[ - ] popticalillusion 5 points 5 monthsDec 8, 2023 21:29:21 ago (+5/-0)

It looks like I am caught up in FNGT Archives to November 2023. I'm getting back into a more routine life, so catching up will be relatively easy now. The issues I experienced a few weeks ago seemed to have been fixed when I fixed some issues with my computer updating properly.

I'll be looking where I left off on the projects I was interested in recording, and attempting to get me some recording partners. I'm less than an hour from my past performing area and should be able to locate somebody with some time on their hands. LOL.

I'll be checking out the posted songs after I get "Off The Air" or done streaming live for my radio station.

I appreciate Metallica and I love them, I have seen them live 21 times, 13 of those were from the very front row.

Still.

I offer you my original song, better than any Metallica song ever produced.

I just ask you to please give a listen

Fuck the World

i'm a piano man, i loved the piano since the first time i heard it. my dad also listened to alot of classics but as of late i have found a new respect for the electric guitar. if properly played it can the medium to a great sound instead of just noise.

[ - ] Sleazy [op] 2 points 5 monthsDec 9, 2023 03:43:25 ago (+2/-0)

Play us some piano

[ - ] dosvydanya_freedomz 2 points 5 monthsDec 9, 2023 11:29:53 ago (+2/-0)

no, i suck at it i'd rather listen instead. unlike you guys i have zero artistic talents whatsoever

you need talent and practice to be good at music. most musicians are good at math because it requires to keep up with the tempo and timings i was never good at any of those things.

yeah, sounds great, looks like Verle 20 years ago

[ - ] popticalillusion 0 points 5 monthsDec 10, 2023 18:30:54 ago (+0/-0)

It does sound great! Mix up whatever you feel like playing, maybe something longer. LOL Watching it kinda messed with my head a few seconds. Reminded me of jamming with some left handed players years ago.

Whew lad, you are one gullible nigga. The downie in the vid is faking it. Here is the real version https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-q6p237QLx8 (neither of these guys are me btw).

I can tell the difference, but instead of showing how bad a person I can be, I just decided on an answer that might generate some more content. Oh, well!
