Re: 311 Cruise 2012

I usually skip "Mix it Up" and "Something Out of Nothing"

Re: If you think Uplifter is better than Universal Pulse

Call me strange, but am I one of the few people who actually enjoys Uplifter?

There are a few songs I can do without, but I still know the lyrics to the entire album. As I have stated in other threads, I am not critical of every song and I just try and enjoy my favorite band's music.

Re: 311 Guitar Archive?

How do you all feel about Rock Band or Guitar Hero? Back when I was in college, my friends and I (who were all part of a band), we all played GH and RB together. Playing on expert really helped my hand speed - especially from playing endless runs of "Jordan" on GH2 and "Through Fire ...

Re: 311 Guitar Archive?

Its not an attack at all. We were just having a conversation. BUT, there is a difference between people who can read sheet music and can't. Casual guitar players would be a description for people who learn to play via tabs. Musicians are people who know how to read sheet music and understand key, to...

Re: Philly show was BOMB!

I fucking knew it. The one time i don't go to the NJ and Philly shows, they play a decent/great set. No one can understand the rage i have right now I feel for you man as I have extreme rage right now as well. I saw that set and was so excited for VA Beach.

Re: 311 Guitar Archive?

Tabs are great and all, but does anyone actually know how to read music? I started to learn when I was in 7th grade and was pretty sharp at it by early 9th grade. No offense, but if you cant read music or when I ask you to play something in G sharp and you look at me with blank stare, your not a mu...

Re: 311 Guitar Archive?

I agree with you antism, but when it comes to lyric writing - I am heinous at it. I have a plethora of music to play that I have created myself! Like I said, tabs are great for people who just want to horse around at music, but it gets under my skin when I go in to my local sam ash or guitar center ...

Re: Philly show was BOMB!

So GA for the entire show? I dig. And I'm ok with not tailgating as I would assume there are great bars around there to goto. There are a few, but not really close to the Pier. You have Cavanaugh's right next to the Pier. Sugarhouse Casino is a few blocks down Buckheads and Finnegans Wake are up on...

Someone should start a thread about the next 311 studio album and make up fake track names and album name.

Re: Pinche culero line in Time Bomb

Probably kept the censorship away from the album.

Few curses here and there, but the "fucking asshole" might have had to have the Parental Advisory slapped on it, which I am sure they wanted to avoid.

Re: I've changed my plea to guilty. What did I have for lunch

Of course $8 is a great price for the CD.

Anything more than $10, people really would have been in an uproar.

All 8 songs are great - Trouble still has yet to grow on me.
