Do "self duets" bug you?

I've been noticing an increasing number of AB songs where Myles self-harmonizes during choruses. He sings it two different ways then both tracks are combined. Mark did it too in Waters Rising. Does this jump out to anyone else? I don't mind backing vocals from a different singer but it just strikes ...

Re: I'm now officially a homeowner :)

And as for ^ property taxes are to local government and/or school district. Yeah true, my mistake. But in the end it's just another govt "fk you", just a different hand that takes it. You can own your house flat out and have no kids, yet you have to pay 5-10k in property taxes a year (whi...

An actual video. You're not getting $4,200 for an idea, and unless I misread something, it's not a prototype but rather the final product.

Re: Lover Official Music Video Contest

This is pretty cool. I have a few ideas but neither the skills nor equipment. Will be interesting if we can see some of the rejected entries though just to see the range of creativity.

If that's the case, regardless of what the bottle says you should be doing like a third of the serving you're currently taking.

Be prepared for your estimated value to increase next year so you can pay more property tax to Uncle Samhole.

Re: Building a guitar for Mark

^^ "The design you see in there is my Neg-X chambering. It is to help with not only weight relief, it also channels the sound through all of the guitar instead of just hogging out one half of the body." I'm guessing it also has to do with the internal circuitry that is typically in the bac...

Re: Dreams of Alter Bridge?

You know how later dreams don't make sense but they do at the time you're in them? Well I've never been in this place before but I guess I lived there and that seemed normal and homelike to me. We had some sort of mini makeshift stage in the house like something a garage band would use and AB was th...

Re: AB on That metal show

It really would make more sense to let the guest artists play their own improvy bits.

Re: Need more intros/outros!

I could be wrong but I think it's pre-recorded. I hear all sorts of synthesized bits including string elements in there. Maybe I have a different understanding of what you mean by soundcheck though.

Re: Need more intros/outros!

I agree, but none of it ever makes it to the album! I realize that some of the songs themselves have intros, but it would be interesting to see an album with a handful of segway pieces like this that stitch the album together instead of just switching from Bleed it Dry to Lover (for example).

Need more intros/outros!

I'd really love if they'd put more stuff like this in future albums. Really sets the tone which is one of the reasons they sometimes use it on tour. Especially now that they're messing around a bit and experimenting on Fortress I think it'd be a great way to get one or two pieces of the puzzles Mark...

Re: Mark Tremonti + Lzzy Hale show tricks - Metal Hammer

I clicked it about 3 times before I realized it was a picture :shifty Kind of weird that they'd put Lzzy Hale together with Tremonti for a warm up "lesson" considering how far apart on the skill meter they are. Any serious guitar student should be able to play Lzzy's parts within a few mon...

Re: Top 10 Tremonti solos

Haha, I toyed with the idea of making this thread.

I'm not going to bother going 1 through 10, but I generally favor the ones off of ODR although I'm a huge fan of the Blackbird and Brand New Start ones. Bleed it Dry is my favorite out of all of them though.
