When we run out of oil, electric and of course electric guitars! you'll be pleased of the humble bagpipe to while away the dark hours in your self sufficient little community, best start liking accustic..:001_tongue:

 

I'll settle for a bagpipe over an electric guitar anyday...:001_smile:

 

Music is about communication, beauty, love anger etc etc. My reference points on these things, these emotions are contemporary. I live now. Sure the instruments of the past, particularly folk instruments sufficed at the time. many a great rebel or love song was performed with the pipes. But just from a sonic point of view, the electric guitar is way more dynamic, thus a great communicator has a considerably expanded vocabulary at his finger tips (so to speak). Bag pipes for the tourists and Mogwai, primal Scream,Malcolm Middleton are for the Scots.

Scotland the Brave!

Glastonbury festival is run off WIND turbines. There's pleanty of them Electric new fangled guitars there.

I love most instruments, Acoustic or otherwise, but particularly detest ones that dont progress. Folk instruments are the worse offenders.

The Electric Guitar can scream, wail, whisper, bark and growl its way around your soul like no other instrument. Soulmusic...

This is an awsome piece of guitar work, slap bass rythym with a searing melody thats hard to describe. All set to a rather natty TRON vid...

Great noise at 1.12 but way too many notes for me. Holger Czukay from Can said the reason why guitarists like Steve Vai and Eddie van halen play so many notes is because they can't find the right one. I'm no fan of technique for techniques sake, I'd rather have apoor musician with loads of imagination than the best musician just showing off. Eric Clapton comes to mind as someone who ran out of imagination around 1969. The Stooges were awful musicians but created an apocalyptic sound from their hometown of Detroit. I'm digging the Butthole surfers again at the moment, and enjoying some of the maths-rock bands like battles. Also grooving to early psyche garage punk from the states like the sonics and the monks.

Dig this!!! well before Iggy or the pistols!
