Today, I had to babysit my dying grandmother, so I brought up my guitar. She hadn't said anything to anyone today, and the first thing and only thing she said was, "Stop. Make it stop" to me when I played. FML

MAKE IT STOP
Today, I learned how to play "Happy Birthday" on the guitar, just to have my friend tell me that my voice sucks, and that I needed to stop immediately. FML

Today, I went in my room to play my guitar. I found my Les Paul on the floor with all the strings missing. I later found out my grandma cut them off because I was playing "Devil's Music." FML

Today, while tuning my bass guitar, I noticed a very strange screeching sound. I leaned over to look behind the neck. The biggest string snapped off and cut the side of my face. FML

Today, I heard whimpering while I was in my bedroom. Thinking it was my parents doing something nasty, I let them do it and turned on my music. My parents came home from work and I realised they were never home. I went into the room and saw my dead dog laying on the floor. FML

Today, a week after moving into my new house, I'm seriously considering suing the previous occupant. He failed to mention how the neighbor has his own band and rehearses every other day until 2am. Their music is so bad, it sounds like the wailing of a cat being tortured to death. FML

Today, it was beautiful out. I decided to play guitar at the park near my house. I left my guitar case open, asking not for money but for feedback. I got two pieces of paper with feedback: 1) You're fat. 2) Get a life. FML

Today, my sister was playing a rock star in a play. When she got home, she told me she used one of my old guitars, because I told her it was ok. I said she could take one to practice on, not destroy on stage. FML

Today, after practicing a song for my girlfriend on guitar all day, I called her over to my house to show it to her. After a long speech about how "this is for you," I played for about 3 seconds before I broke a string, which slapped her in her face. FML

taking lessons is the worst idea, it sucks the creativity out of players. best thing to do is; 1. develop your ear!! 2. practice finger techniques over the pentatonic scale, there's a ton of YouTube videos on how to use/modify the pentatonic over songs. 3. try to replicate your favorite guitar players. 4. find the tone you want and get the appropriate gear. But seriously don't learn whole songs, if you do, before you know it you'll be unable to create your own stuff and will be spewing out Hendrix licks cause it's programmed into your head.

I'm going to set the record straight here. Getting good at screaming takes just as much effort as getting good at singing. Period. Now as far as lyrical content goes, listen to some Killswitch Engage. Try and find me a song of theirs that doesn't have a positive message. If you look at the average messages coming from the pop station and the average messages coming from the metal station, it is obvious where the more meaningful songs are coming from. Hell listen to the album ...And Justice for All by Metallica. That was back in the 80's even. Metal has always had positive messages. It's really just the uber-hardcore shit bands that try to be Satanic, but really just suck dick that make metal look bad. The people that talk shit about metal, probably haven't listened to the songs at all.
