The Watering Hole

First off let me say thanks to Jon for being a big help.

Secondly....I don't know what the fuck I am doing.  I just messed around with some of the buttons on my camera and shot some "film".  This was just a test run to see if I could even use the video editing software and figure out how the fuck to use it.

Yup....that's me.....in my undie's.  You saw it.  HAHAHAHAHAHA

Sounds like you're a quick learner! :)

BTW - What was that scale practice you were doing?  (Isn't it great how things like that can sound with enough effects on? :D )

Dude, Mom is disappointed, see didnt see much> Oh wait, I hear you aint got much
         Mom being Joanne

You think SHE'S disappointed, wait until Howie watches the vid!  ;D

Damn FB, you've fallen into the youtube trap of "not showing your face".  It really pisses me off when people make videos of just the guitar and hands, come on we want to see the whole performance.  By the way, I haven't listened yet as I am in the office with no sound. I'll take a listen later!

By the way, if you do a full shot with face, don't look directly into the camera like voxman does....very off putting  ;D

Craig I have no idea what scale that is in....I'd say it's mostly in E. I know there is a section where I do a lot of sliding and it's pretty much E pentatonic.

I THINK the only effect I had on was a delay and an OD.  I don't think I had the chorus on....but the delay is a memory man....and I am almost certain that the modulation part was turned off.

The song is by Guthrie Govan....it's called "waves"  look it up and you will understand why that is like the ONLY part fo the song I have figured out.

At Rik......Right that's why SHE keeps coming back to Bowling Green to see ME....she's tired of her wee man that she has at home! HAHAHAHA

Jon.....We have a tripod....I was in a hurry last night and was more concerned about seeing if I could get the thing off the camera and formated and onto you tube.  I didn't know where the tripod was at so my only option was to sit it on the desk.  I'm like you....I hate it when people do that to.  I'll find the tripod and do a better job next time!!!  I promise!  

That was literally the first time I had done anyignwith thhat camera.  My wife has used it several times but just to shoot stuff.  There are a lot of settings that I need to futz with to see what they do.  All and all I like that camera a lot.  

The sound was straight off the camera!

Just an FYI, if I'm watching to learn, I prefer to see the fretboard and picking hand as close as possible but, if I'm watching for entertainment, then the pulled back shot is better.

As for Voxman?  Well, maybe just a shot of his guitar.  :D  (Note that this suggestion need not apply to his daughter.  ;) ;D )

Cool playing, I thought that lick was pretty neat, I don't know if you wrote it or copied it but it was pretty cool sounding. (And fuck the video part if you ain't got a vagina and nice tits I don't care about the video part).

that song is the intro lick to "Waves" by Guthrie Govan.  

I just shot the video to test out my stuff.  

There's a smudge on your lens and.... I'm afraid to ask what it is...   :D

Is that a big guitar or have you slimmed down  :P

FenderGovan - didn't know that track checked it out.

Good job man.

It's a big guitar!!!!  I've been yo yoing with the weight.   ;D ;D

Thanks.  After seeing the rest of it....you understand why I only posted the intro! HAHAHAHA

Yeah, apparently the rest gets boring where he's just hitting 100's of "random" 128th notes or something, right?  ;)

;D ;D ;D - I see you've spotted my tactics & technique to distract folk from my amateur productions & playing!

Good job FB - what camera & software were you using?

I have a Canon HF S100.  For that I used the software it came with because I just wanted to test that software out.  I am not real keen on the software aspect of it.  I think it's rather limiting.  But I still have a lot to learn about it.  I also have a version of some So software....I think it's called Vegas.....that I got at a rather "discounted price".  I've only looked at it but it looks much more flexible and promising.

Today is my last day of school and we start spring break.  So I hope to get a lot more to to fart around with the new toys.

I need some video software...

Nice first vid effort, FB. I have that Govan CD, took me a few to recall what you were playing but I did know that it sounded familiar, was initially thinking you were trying to dupe a Vai vibe though (so does GG I reckon, lol).

I like the pulled back, don't be shy view myself - the fuck faces/expressions are often more entertaining than the hands and gut angle.

So are the room-clearing special effects!  ;D

(For those that don't remember: http://www.nwdreamer.com/download/Room_Clearer.mpeg  :D )

christ, walked into that one, lol!  ;D

LOL!  Just remember, anything classic that you do on here, WILL be remembered...  and SAVED TO HARD DRIVE!   :D

Saved to harddrive?  Hell, that clips makes me LMAO every time I see it so it's been on the internet ever since it happened!  :D

Thanks man.  I prefer it too....again I didn't have the tripod out and had to settle for the desk as a camera stand.  

I have plans for a new video very soon.  All will be revealed!! MWHAHAHAHAHAHA
