1. All my originals, other than that ive only been learning some nameless classical pieces. and a few opeth riffs here and there, but nothing specific

2. wellllll.. overall the hardest to learn have been:
Tommy Emmanuel - The Hunt
Steve Vai - (anything).... i guess the hardest was that song from Crossroads. still cant play that solo thing!
Heaps of classical stuff.

3. ohhhhh about 11 years ago. Thats 11 years of solid playing, never given up, or eased off or anything.

4. i dont really have a particular song i like to play most. Generally i prefer to play things on guitar which can stand alone by themselves, so i can normally be found playing acoustic or classical songs. And when im alone and nobody can hear me then occasionally ill sing along! When i want metal ill listen to it on CD, coz i always get sick of songs once i learn to play them on guitar.

5. To Bid You Farewell. Thats it. Other than a few riffs here and there i just dont like to learn songs by my favorite bands coz it always ends up wrecking the song for me.

6. Favorite?.. hm, Mikael is my favorite guitarist in terms of what i like to hear and what's original and so on.
In terms of speed and ability though i'd have to say Steve Vai. Marty Friedman is awesome to.


hehe, my responses make me sound like a casual guitar player who picks up a guitar once a month or something. I tend to play for at least an hour a day tho, come to think of it its hard to know what i do play every day?. hmmmm

 

[rogue27]

1. none
2. all of the ones I attempted to play but couldn't.
3. 1993 - but I stopped a few years later because of wrist problems. Now I just pick it up every few months and realize I totally suck.
4. Call of Ktulu by Metallica
5. none
6. Dave mustaine was a strong inspiration at one time.

BTW, I think OGB from Borknagar is cool. I can't wait for their next CD. Should be soon.
