reckoner

good mood: modest mouse, arctic monkeys, smiths (queen is dead is great), the hourly radio, wolf parade sad: interpol (turn on the bright lights), the national, mogwai, shins... i mostly am having a blast if i'm drinking alone.

he's a douche. his band is legendary here in st catharines. or at least, among the high school mallrats they are. his shit is depressing as fuck. "hello, i'm in delaware" is far too depressing to be a wayne's world reference. this shit makes my ears cry.

i don't think this really peaks my interest in it, nor does another recording of "tidal wave" ... but kiera anne certainly does.

load me up - tuned Eb verse D (strum with open high e then hammer on) G F#/G (i suck at names, but it's 2x0033) Em/G (022033) pre-chorus (hey are ya, are ya...) Bm G repeated until "hey yeah you are" where it's an E chorus G F#m Em bridge (all the way out) D (open high E, xx0320) G F#m E and there's some riff he plays where he hammers on things before the third verse, but i can never hear/see it well enough to figure it out hope this helps, and if you figure out that other part, post it

suburbia (if i recall correctly) tuned Eb capo 2nd verse: he picks through these and hammers on the b string Am Am C (x32010) some sort of B chord (x20010) pre-chorus: strumming at the second "you would be mine" F (x33210) C/G (332010) chorus: strummed G Am F C/G he ends the chorus with another C and G then back into the verse outro/bridge/whatever: "they'll realize..." repeated F C G G to go back into the verse, he goes F, C, then slowly strums the G and lets it ring out til "you're missing", then do the verse again

in the youtube video she plays a cover of finger 11.

yes it is. kinda boring, but decent none the less. anyways, someone HAS to get bright end of nowhere up for us.

chorus: b a d

put them up when you get the chance. i thought it was wicked, there is no bad spots in that theatre, and you could hear every word, even when he was well away from his mic.

i hope so, even matt said it was better than the toronto show, and he was in really good spirits.

tuned flat i remember the verse, i'll get back with the chorus tomorrow. verse F# E D slide the D chord up to the ninth fret that was it. again, i'll get back to you on the chorus, i'm in my underwear and my guitar is on the other side of the house.

nah. though it was a fucking fantastic show. it was also nice to get him to sign a couple copies of the Brock Press article i'd written on him. so check the front page of the Press this week for a photo and a brief concert review, i think it's only around 100 words.

come on, folks. let's spread some love to one another. since there are some of us who like the new arrangements of songs this tour, and kind of want to learn them, we should all help each other out. i've got a bunch figured out, so if you're looking for something, just ask, someone's gotta know how to play it. i'm mostly looking for symbolistic white walls and sort of a protest song. any help?

third listen, and i can't believe how fucking good some of it is. as a whole, the album is awesome, but there are certain parts, or songs that just blow me away every time.

best. comment. ever. !

it's pretty. any idea on the chords?

is it a messenger bag? got any pics of it, besides the computerized one he did?

some of my favs have been mentioned, but i must say, the greatest all time: The Tony Danza Tap Dance Extravaganza and i do like You Say Party! We Say Die!

depeche mode cover, "enjoy the silence". "all i ever wanted all i ever needed is here in my arms"

just because a song wasn't a single doesn't mean they wouldn't have heard it. people do buy records and listen to the other 9 songs too, at least once.

anyone remember before AoB tracklisting was confirmed when matt posted 11 songs that were to be AoB? none of them were real. i can only remember a few, like "D-Cup", "Blunder Bus", Winds of the Samarai", and "Orgasmi".

shade, you watched family guy today, didn't you? quagmire's cross-cuntry tour "uh... doesn't country have an 'o' in it?" "nope!"

it's relaxed... i like it, but don't love it. i'll agree with "it's cute" - mostly because it's fun to say. come on, try it. "it's cute".

go from picking to strumming i assume.

i hope it's b. because if it's a, it may take awhile to get used to.
