Night night.

 

[Shambles]

Nighty, Jess

 

[Pagey]

Please do, it's absolutely stunning.

I absolutely love it, it's gorgeous. They've really managed to make something more out of it. Made me get out my guitar :D
(and that's saying something coming from me cuz I'm super prudish when it comes to Zep covers)

off to bed druggy wuggys.

Night!

 

[Ben So Furry]

Ace! I'm glad you like it.

I once played Stairway To Heaven in a guitar shop.

Everyone applauded and shook my hand.

They congratulated me on my originality.

 

[Pagey]

Hahah that's the one I play every single time I walk into a guitar shop. Which is often, because I like playing on Les Pauls and the like for just a few minutes even if I'll probably never be able to afford one
Did you see Heart's cover at the Kennedy Awards? Plant had tears in his eyes, it was really touching.

 

[Ben So Furry]

Gold top? Mine is tobacco sunburst.

I'm surprised they let you back in.

One near me has a list of tunes you can't play.

Stairway To Heaven is number one.

Can you guess any of the others?

Nope not seen that Pagey, will have a look now. Thanks.

 

[Pagey]

You've got a Les Paul? That's amazing. My uncle has one so I've been able to play on it a bit and I just love the feel of it so much. Although I've got a Tele so can't complain.

And I just alternate between shops hehe.

Mmmh...Glasgow Kiss? Eruption? Jordan?

 

[Ben So Furry]

Not a real one. It's a copy. Ibanez.

Oh I always wanted a tele. A pale blue one.

Very cool nowadays.

Enter Sandman is one.

Have you seen that pearlescent paint Pagey?

I wanted a guitar in that. A car paint place said they would do it for me.

 

[Pagey]

Ah ok. Still super cool though.

Yeah I really love it, I've got an especially saturating amp too so it makes for a great combo.

Did you ever see 'Almost Famous'? I love that scene where he walks into the guitar shop and there's the sign on the door telling people not to play STH cuz they're so sick of hearing it haha.

 

[Ben So Furry]

Black Sabbath - Paranoid is another.

Love the high end twang and rich mids of a Fender.

Great for blues.

What colour is yours?

I'm guessing....erm....red?

Just finished that Heart cover, very nice.

Actually sounded a little bit like Plant. he he.

 

[Pagey]

Mmh good choice.

Yup - I'd seen this absolutely incredible brown/red/yellowish one (it looked like autumn leaves) online but when I got to the shop they'd told me it had been sold literally 10mn before, I was so gutted. But I love my red one anyway.

NSFW:

Haha yeah she does, although most female singers do tbh :D Jimmy's huge smile just makes me so happy though. I wonder what was going through their heads.

 

[Ben So Furry]

Oh Pagey that's fucking gorgeous.

Black scratch plate as well. Uber cool.

Gutted mate. I've never seen one in pearlescent.

Don't get this one:

Radiohead - Creep

 

[Pagey]

Yeah she's a beauty!

Hmm that's an odd choice...I would've thought it's a pretty simple song really. Dyou like Radiohead? My dad/brother are massively obsessed with them but I just can't seem to get into their stuff...

 

[Ben So Furry]

Yes I like Radiohead. It is razor blade music at times though.

You'll understand this one:

Deep Purple - Smoke On The Water.

That's all I can remember.

What amp have you got?

Don't tell me it's a Jim Marshall?

 

[Pagey]

Mmh dyou think? I've never really thought of that one as difficult either

Haha no, I wish! I've got a Fender amp, can't remember which model exactly, I'll check later when I find the strength to get out of bed - it's quite nice though, lots of saturation as I mentioned and you can just press a button to get a more 70s metal sound, or 90s grunge sound, or whatever. What about you?

 

[Ben So Furry]

No not difficult. Guitar shop folk are sick of hearing it.

I have a Peavey. Reverb unit is broke on it though.

The plate rattles all the time.

Nice loud, crisp amp when you can kick the thing into life.

 

[Pagey]

You know, I just realised this whole time I've been misunderstanding you. I thought you mean 'songs you can't play' as in 'they're too hard for you'. Feel like a bit of an idiot right now haha, it was pretty obvious what you meant. So this probably explains my weird answers

 

[Ben So Furry]

Ha ha no worries. It is easy to misunderstand me.

I have that gift.

Song that are too hard for me to play?

Far too many to list. Ha there is a Judas Priest song called Painkiller.

It's fucking ridiculous.

What song is your nemesis?

 

[Pagey]

:D
I was getting really confused, glad I finally got it haha.

Oh yeah that one's pretty insane. The one I've been battling for years is Petrucci's Glasgow Kiss. I just cannot play it, so frustrating.
