    So I kicked my singer to the curb (acoustic duo)

    You didn't play the solo, man. Big pet peeve of mine when people don't play song the same way as the original. But on topic definetly the right call to fire her. The only way she is worth putting up is if she drew a huge crowd.

    Perfect Pitch in a Pill

    I'll have to challenge the no known reports of adults developing perfect pitch. In my 20s I taught myself how to do by tattooing the pitches into my brain. Basically hearing a note and then playing a song in my head that I already know the key of.

    Why can't Sammy Hagar drive 55?

    When I heard that song as a kid I thought he meant his car was a piece of crap and couldn't reach 55.

    "An Open Letter to Venues That Exploit Their Musicians"

    You can't build a following if you don't play out but you can't play out if you don't have a following. That's why a few of the bands I was in would throw warehouse parties and charge for the keg. If we can bring a 100 people we may as well make 100% profit between all the acts rather than...

    Emmure live rig?

    Emmure was more of guilty pleasure band for me. When around other metalheads I keep it to myself but when I'm out driving I got speaker of the dead cranked and I'm like 'how much more proof do you wannnt!'

    Where do you think we're headed?

    Metal was never meant to be some hot topic bs with autotune vocals and cookie cutter breakdowns. It's just righting itself out as all things do. It'll go back underground and the scene whores will abandon it. What metal will evolve into 10 years from now is anyone's guess but there will...

    Bands these days, more like a business?

    It seems to find success in the biz it goes marketing, image and music. In that order of importance. If you don't have at least one person in the band who knows how to play the game, you are pretty much doomed...

    Seems like the dubstep party is nearing the end of its life cycle. It was quick.

    I know if the lyrics contain repeated use of 'falling' 'breaking' 'away' 'sick' 'inside' and 'down' its probably nu metal

    Don't bring your mobile/camera to a Danzig-gig

    I was at the ft.lauderdale show the night before. He got tough with dude who had a camera at that one too. He was like 'you wanna .... with me, who the .... do you think you are?' And the crowd cheered. Their pit was fun good show despite his tough guy bs. Off topic but I never heard of...

    Where does the value lie in the music you enjoy?

    If I get mental images and visuals just hearing a song, that's power. When a song inspires , is the most important thing

    Exotype (djent-dance?)

    Sounded like typical beiber-core with a dub step sample tossed in on the breakdowns.

    Vocal Discussion Thread

    I've tried all those advice vids and have never found a way to do the screams, frys and growls without fucking up my throat. Whatever the deal is with the diaphragm i just can't get it.

    Dave Grohl Keynote Speech SXSW

    Nirvana definetly helped him get his foot in the door. I gotta say though, I don't even like the foo fighters (old stuff is ok) but Dave is where he is because of talent. He wouldnt have been able to live off of nirvana for this long.

    Really need help with expanding my chops

    Do you have friends who play? That helps a lot to be around people that can shred because that natural need to compete will make you a better player when you know you have to be. It's not the same as getting a teacher.
