[mjknowles]

Bloody hell ! This is one killer jam . 8) 8) 8)

[Six]

:jaw: Incredible. Simply incredible. You guys amaze me... it's a priviledge to be amongst such talented players, you make me feel like a complete beginner :lol:
Perhaps my next twenty years of playing might get me up to scratch.

Excellent work from eveyone so far!

[Steve Zane]

:jaw: :jaw: :jaw: Hoooo! Man this is a hot jam. Love all the tracks on this one.
Danny if you would live in Montreal I would be ready to pay you $300 an houre for guitar lessons. That was one hell of a solo.

[ZappaFan]

Well what can I say ? Great stuff by all you guys, rockin' in the extreme, fantastic

BTW Danny I changed my mind I want my slot back !!!! Your just a guitar menace !!! But WOW what a menace !!! Can I have your children ???

[Highway Star]

Too weird Zapp!! LOL

Farl

[Guitarpima]

In the words of my friend Rob (a drummer), "man that was slammin"!!! Great job Danny. I better go play some more.

[Stempy]

OH SHIT. My turn. Tell you what, I'll have a try but my playing isn't up to the level of the thus far participants. If it's crap then Zapp can have my slot and I'll go back to my ukelele...

[Steve Zane]

OH SHIT. My turn. Tell you what, I'll have a try but my playing isn't up to the level of the thus far participants. If it's crap then Zapp can have my slot and I'll go back to my ukelele...
I have to say I wouldn't feel to good about going next but, we have to remember that it's all in good fun bro so let your soul speak and have fun.

[Danny Danzi]

Thanks a lot for the kind words guys, everyone made this a killer jam for sure so far!

Zane: you'd never have to pay that amount man....I don't think even Vai is worth $300 an hour, so for sure lil Danny D wouldn't charge ya that price. :) I'd be happy with just getting together with you once a week and noodling a bit if I lived near ya....free of charge of course....unless you wanna bring beer? ;)

Zap: if we could pull that one off there'd be no reason for me to play music for a living....a dude having a child would sure bring in a few bucks! LOL!! Thanks bro!

Guitarpima: thanks, your section was pretty "slammin" also...well done!

Tang: you're an effin maniac and you never cease to amaze me dude! Nice little tension points ya threw in on yours...mmmmmm! ;)

And Mr. Zombo, I really enjoyed your part in this! Very well played man!!

[Mr Smith]

Cheers Zomb, I've been dropping in mate, just having a quiet spell :)

[zombo]

Holy sh*t how things move on, awesome stuff from all

Thanks Rob missed you also mate !!

[Ender]

killa stuff by all! Tang and Danny, those were some of the best solos I've heard ever. You guys really set the bar. Can't wait to hear the thing when everyone's done :)

[zombo]

Time is ticking away ???

[Stempy]

Is that a hint??? Sorry to hold things up but I'm scared. Actually I managed to tread on my lead and rip out the jack socket from my guitar but it's all mended now so will do my best to post something up by this time tomorrow.

[zombo]

Don't worry Stempy if you have anymore difficulty then take a slot later and let somebody go before you no problem mate !

[zeusse]

Don't worry Stempy I'm scared too:nervous:

[Stempy]

Well I just spent all evening trying to come up with something worthy and failed dismally.:wall: I don't know what it is about this track but I just can't seem to keep time to it, so if you want to bung me on the end and let the others go first it might give me time to get my head round it.:sap:

[Rick]

hey andy you'll be cool.
but to be honest if it was me i would be shaking like a shitting dog.

[zeusse]

Hey Stemp I can go or Stevedak and it'll give you some more time if ya want let me know I got my lick fairly organized and ready to go..let me know

[Stempy]

Ok I'm posting this piece of unimaginative, badly played poo so you can decide whether you want to go play after it or not. At least I can say that I played next to Danny Danzi for the time being at least. Dunno why I just can't get into the rhytmn of this track. Perhaps I'm not funky enough. Take the slot after Danny if you wish, I won't be offended, more relieved.:confused:

[stevedak]

sounds perfectly fine and funky to me Stemp, level was a bit low but otherwise it rocked...If you want, I can go either after you or do it after Danny's part and give you more time to work something else out, either way, your choice!!

[Stempy]

Ok, go after Danny and I'll try to improve it, bring up the level and slot in on the end.

[Stew]

Guys this is sounding superb...I last heard this the day John posted it and thought wow great backer i am tempted to put down for that one...glad i am busy with the baby just now icould not perform to the high leels you guys have. Stempy your playing sounded fab...get recording it again with some more volume and it will be killer give that Danny boy a run for his money LOL.

Proud to know you guys and learning all the time from you. looking forward to hearing the rest play on this. Danny i can't amnage to come for weekly lessons because my car does not skim well on the Atlantic waves but need to hook up in jamroom :help:

[Guitarpima]

Other than the level being low, it sounds fine to me stempy. Your first riff is a great segway to what you do. Let's see what you do next. Good job!

[stevedak]

here's my bit, I went ahead and put it after Danny's spot, but if you want Stemp I can remix it after your original one...I decided to lay back a bit and let the track breathe a little...there's some incredibly tasty shreddage going on here by all involved so far, I hope this measures up! :thumb:

[Stempy]

Now that's more like it! That was great. Maybe with a few more years of practice and I'll be able to sound that good. For now I'm happy just to tack my bit on the end and fade into oblivion....................:lol:

[zombo]

Ok, go after Danny and I'll try to improve it, bring up the level and slot in on the end.

So be it !!!

By the way Stempy it sounded fine the level was just low and Zombo is telling you off for pulling yourself to bits !!!
You are one of the greatest improvers on this forum and you are worthy enough to be in this jam man !

[Stempy]

Well thank you Mr Zombo. Unfortunately, on this occasion, I find myself frustrated at being unable to transfer what is in my head to the fretboard. I'll consider myself suitably chastised and put in more practice as pennance.

[stevedak]

So be it !!!

+1!!!!

[Steve Zane]

This is one realy great jam so far!!! Steve amazing job on this one..very constructive and soulfull. I always liked the stuff you make Steve :thumb: :thumb: :thumb:

[Guitarpima]

It's raining it's pouring Steve wasn't snoring. That was a funny quote there. Great work there!

[ZappaFan]

Great Jam guys, sounding superb, you are kinda scary when you all get in this mood of shredtasticism. I was kinda upset that I didn't have time to stay in on this one, but also kinda relieved now as I wouldn't have wanted to let the side down on this.

Well done dudes.

[Highway Star]

Just caught up with this thread and Stempy, sorry man but you aint gonna like this (much! LOL) Another bollicking I'm afraid! What the heck are you on man! your bit was fine other than the volume! I know we are all our own worst critics but heck! I would have been proud to have posted that! So, don't think you are going to get with "fading away at the back of a jam" matey!

BTW, have a rep point!

So... now you know! LOL

[Stempy]

Well I hope I'm not upsetting the apple cart here but here's another effort, slightly higher level than the last and with a different arrangement. Still seems I cant quite get the hang of the timing but I'm at least a little happier with it. I think it was supposed to be Zuess next so I'll redo it on the end if I've butted in.

[zeusse]

That was bitchin Stempy :thumb: don't underrate yourself you got some tasty licks there....And I'll have mine up by tomorrow latest could be tonight if I can get it finished before I go to work....and I was last Stempy so no toes stepped on :grin:

[zombo]

First of all Steve that has to be the best I have heard from you I just loved your tone absolutely superb after Mr Danzi you did it worthy!!

[zombo]

I loved it Stempy do me a favour get rid off that ukelele man that was very tasty you have made us proud of you!
I couldn't believe it was you a round of applause for Stempy I would say we all buy him a beer top guy top solo !

I can't wait to hear yours Zeusse !!!

[stevedak]

Brilliant job Stempy, absolutely superb! Nice tasty licks and a sweet tone too, everything sat perfectly in the track, have a rep point and a beer on me!

[Stempy]

Awww Shucks, you guys....

How many of you jammers use a Digitech?

[Guitarpima]

I agree everyone else Stempy. That was smooth and tasty. Good tone as well. I used a Genesis 3 for a while but I sold it to a buddy and got a PodXT. I sometimes wish I had kept it because it did things the pod does not but that's the way the guitar world works. At least I am not a TEO, (temporary equipmnet owner). You know the guys who save and buy something and a month later they pawn it.

[stevedak]

I just recently acquired a 2101, but I can't really say I've used it all that much yet...I need to do some serious tweaking with it to get the tones I like. Meanwhile, I'm sticking with the POD XT Pro or straight into the TonePort using Gearbox for the guitar tones.

[zeusse]

Alrighty then folks another chapter finished on in my opinion the best jam I have ever heard from you guys its just awesome how much fun this one was to watch evolve....I decided to pull my slide out on this last one I maybe should have retuned to an open G or even C but its a lot of damm work retuning that locking tremolo......I know I'm lazy but I gotta go to work soon....Thanks for all the work you guys put into this one:thumb:

Take the second one Neil thought my levels were low so I remixed hope this one is better

[Viscolex]

zomg zomg, great jam everyone!!!!

[zombo]

Wow oh wow that was too much boys great ending Zeusse that unique sound !!
I am so proud of this it was the best jam I ever heard !

Here again was the order of play

1) Flyingzombo
2) Master Tang
3) Guitarprima
4) Danny Danzi
5) Stevedak
6) Stempy
7) Zeusse

[bigdoug]

words fail me on this,its a cracker...well done

[Six]

I'm running out of original things to say about these jams, they are all so good and this is no exception, in fact this is one of the best so I'll simply say "I'm astounded"

Excellent work everyone.
