Now, Danny you could post the videos that I've been sending you

Yeah, and in the future I predict youtube will
upgrade the sound quality....though most
of the youtube videos sound fine to me,
including yours.

do it and says they're too busy to let me have it.

You just have to try again later. It's easier to get in in the late
evening, but it's ususally good enough to wait 5 minutes or so.

I saw Avatar in regular 3 D. Very good movie.

It's good! You sing well! The mic sounds pretty good running through
that Marshall, I can't get a mic to sound decent running it through any
guitar amp.
Consider using a mic on the guitar too, it won't sound so thin!
Danny, you're worried about getting old? Damn. You've still got one
chin. When you get three or four is when the trouble starts.
The Walrus was Danny
The amp is an 50w acoustic marshall amp and is designed for what I'm
doing..I didn't go for the 100w cause it was significantly heavier and
the 50w is loud enough for what I wanna do..the guitar sounds thin
because the mike on the digital camera is a bit shit..in reality it's
better...the vocal sounds good because I've been singing in the
streets for twenty years and have quite a belting vocal on me anyway.
You can hear my "let it be" 400 yards away - I kid you not..and that's
without any amp...the guitar could be better actually but the washburn
was only 125 quid and it was quite nice...I might buy myself a CORT
which is another variety I quite like. I wanted a slim guitar (rather
than a fat one) as they're easier to grab hold of...I've siad before I
don't like Ovations as they slide down yer lap and turn into something
you put your coffee cup on!
My street axe is a Yammy. 100 quid and loud and they can get wet and
be dropped and it doesn't matter.

That was pretty much my reaction to Cameron's "Titanic", which gets
more trite with each repeated viewing.
I'll watch "Avatar" at some point, although it looks like a mashup of
every "colonial invader meets native, falls in love and fights for the
right side" movie ever made. (Dances With Wolves, Pocahontas, etc.)

Titanic is a great film. It goes on a bit but "trite"...the people
dying in the sea with babies literally makes me weep...and the water
creeping up the deck..is genius.

It's sort of better than that..it really is well done..but to get the
best experience out of it you need to get out and go to the pictures
and see the fucker in 3D..before it gets pulled.
It's really worth it..trust me..I'm right about this (as I am about
YO...and Pete Best (snigger))
Danny

Whatever, Abe.
This isn't "Dances With Wolves", "Pocahontas", "Tarzen", etc...
I read the same "viewer reviews" that made those comparisons, and this
is something... well, suffice it to be said... it probably isn't for
you, Mr. Slaney.

I have but one question: why repeated viewings? I loathed it.

Gotcha on the amp...didn't realize it was an acoustic amp. I bought one
of those for my daughter-in-law (she does the coffeehouse thing), not a
Marshall though....Genz Benz! I ought to get one for myself, if I could
find room for it. I do get pretty decent sounds though, running my
acoustic guitars through my Ampeg bass amp!
Keep up the good work. Pretty soon you'll be Fab!

Danny, I can't hear what the second chord is...at the beginning
of the song..and throughout the song, probably cause you're
singing out of the same amp you have your guitar plugged
into. I don't know the names of chords, so I was wondering
if you could tell me what fret you are on..and what
fingers go on what strings? Thanks.

If you like science fiction but prefer a story line that is a bit more
original, I recommend District 9 which was also excellent. I hope
that one is nominated for an Oscar.

.You just caught a busy period. Most often that happens mid-day.
Paid accounts have priority, so try at a later time.

That is one of the things I liked about this movie. Certain parts are
filmed like a documentary, and they are convincing, although we know
it is science fiction.

If I enjoy a movie (and I did enjoy District 9) then it pleases me if
there are hints of a sequel. Yes, the story ends in an unsatisfying
place which makes me want to see more, more, more.
The first Pirates of the Caribbean movie had sublte hints of a sequel.
Those were cleverly placed after the credits rolled. I thought that
was unusual and interesting. Many in the audience never saw that
because they left, as do most people.

Yes it's a funny one...it's like a diminished chord but funnier....
How can I explain?
Er....1st string - open
2nd string - 4th fret with yer little finger
3rd string - 2nd fret with index finger
4th string -4th fret with ring finger
5th string - 3rd fret with middle finger
6th string open
Dunno what you wanna call it....shall we call it Derek?

Nice chord! Good song and performance too. I like the fact that your

And I like the director's voice there at the end too :-)

Actually Jeff - I don't actually play the top e string I just sort of
numb it on the second fret..then if an F sharp gets caught up in it

We can call it that. It's not a chord I've played before.
Don't try and play chords like me without cutting

I chewed my fingernails from 4 years old to age 15. I
decided to quit after suffering from bleeding fingers
from the cold winters..and it hurt like hell. I didn't
just stop while engaging in this horrible habit
with fingernails. If you take a look at my right
middle finger, you can clearly see I was eating
my own flesh to the point of being a cannibal.
Yes, it was related to stress. I should stop

I've found this stress lark seems to lead to:
Hair loss
Extra girth
What hair that's left, going grey
wrinkly skin
dancing really badly
teeth in decline
dislike of rap
heavy use of Hot-Water-Bottles
The finding of *all* females below the age of 35 highly attractive
Loss of eyesight
Eventual death

Yeah, but death is no big deal. I'm not worried
about it. 20 years ago, I was scared of death. What is there
to be afraid of? You just don't exist on planet earth anymore,
and who wants to live forever? Do you, and if so, why would
you want to? Remember there was a time you did not exist.
Did you worry about not existing then? No. What is your
"real" fear of death? 2O years ago, I suffered from
severe heart palpitations (sp?) which is better known as
having severe "panic attacks". I've had them since I
was a kid, and I thought I was going to die, Danny.
My hands and face would go numb for no reason,
whether I was alone or out in public. 20 years later,
I've decided I don't give a crap if I die or not, cause
death happens to everyone. Since then, I'm still
stressed out like crazy, but the attacks aren't as
bad as they used to be...because I've made up my
mind I don't care. So...it all depends on your
attitude...and how you choose to look at your
life.

I saw Avatar in 3D. I enjoyed it very much. It's a long movie, and
the time flew by. Cameron creates an imaginative, fascinating world
and an interesting alien society.
Before I saw the movie, I did not know what the word "avatar" even
meant and had to look it up. I was so influenced by this gem of a
movie, I pondered to myself, "When people post at rmb, are we
avatars?" I was also thinking,"Why call someone a 'sock puppet' when
we can call him/her an 'avatar'?"
