guitar player's most common excuses....kaya hindi daw gumaling

[noto.emo]

work sa weekdays... hawak ng gitara sa weekend... i can't shred pero ok lang...
improvise ang hilig ko... tamad mangapa... depende sa mood... pag bubuo na lang ung band... pero pag hilig... wag hihinto... 

[Perf_De_Castro]

Yeah si Twist ng The Alarm and si Edge of course. Mga guitar heroes. I love them for their innovativeness and knowing how to fit the guitar parts where they belong. Wire Train and The Cult oks din ang guitar parts. Not counting Steve Vai, still none of them  blow me  away. I mean, kung ibang genre siguro naka-lokohan ko nung time na yun (Van Halen) I would have had a loftier goal .

Kaya ka pala mahilig sa efx heheheh

Yung mga kasabayan ko na new wave dati, ang pangarap magka- digital delay at flanger kesa magka-chops 

Nagsimula din ako sa punk at new wave pero ala akong pambili ng efx at nadiskubre kong nadi-distort ang amp pag tinodo ang volume kaya after ng Sex Pistols, Descendents at Stiff Little Fingers napunta na ako sa Poison at GnR hehehe

Overconfidence.
Procrastination.

In relation to this is the famous, 'Now I can't spank my monkey and play the guitar at the same time, can I?'

[el dorko]

In relation to this is the famous, 'Now I can't spank my monkey and play the guitar at the same time, can I?'

but you can do legato exercises with the left hand and do the spanking with the other. parang alternate picking na rin siguro yun 

[gudsgodoy]

eto sakin:
-too busy watching porn
-dota
-walang makajam
-basketball sa c.r.
-sira epeks

[rennaov]

-can't become truly good, took guitar seriously at a late age, hands hard to teach
-uninspired, too much noodling, bored w/ the same pointless licks
-practicing in front of the pc. an hour later, strays to watching porn, afterwards no more urge to practice
-too lazy to pick up the guitar, tired from work(this was before, solved the problem already!  solution: place guitar on sofa so you cant sit without picking it up.  also looks sexy, like a lady doing a sexy pose on the sofa, obliges you to pick it up everytime you come home.  )

sigh... guitarist = guitar + man + porn. tsk. 

[maxi_musikero]

work got in the way.  sleep sounds better than practice if you're deprived of the former. 

[blues2death]

magaling na daw ako e...

so d ko na kailangan mag praktis....hehehehehehehehehehe

[Alchemist0725]

MY common excuses are:
1. busy ako sa work, gabi nko nakakauwi.
2. naghuhugas ksi agad ako ng kamay after magguitar.
3. Nauutusan ako sa bahay kapag praktis time ko na, nawawala tuloy momentum.
4. "wala pa kasi akong ___(my dream rig & guitar) kaya hindi ako makapagpraktis ng maayos."
5. & thingking of na "mukang mas cool maging bassist/drummer kesa guitarist! ang hirap kasi!" 

[rednas]

Nangyari na ba sa inyo to:

"Pagnabili ko na tong (insert guitar or gear here) na to, gaganahan na ko mag practice at tumugtog!" 

Then you end up not practicing, even after getting them....   

[skunkyfunk]

i swear...oops sorry...but

kaya di ako gumaling kasi:

---I spend too much time playing video games

---sobrang pambababae(sabay batok si misis)...buti nga hindi panlalalake e, d ba b?

---I spend too much time watching tv

---i spend too much time posting on philmusic.com....hehehe, but i like it.

Please define 'MAGALING'.

[sidlead66]

me..

-ARAL (Nursing)

-My Son, and my Girlfriend

-Finding the sweetest tone, finding the right guitar,
(ewan ko eh, pero hindrance sa kin pag pangit tone ng fx at ng guitar, parang feeling ko wala akong iiimprove, kahit ok yung gitara at fx sa una, bandang huli feeling mo me mali... though may selection na ko ng gitara)

-Video Games (Emulators)
-Strolling (Motor lang hahaha... Pizza Bike)
-Eating and sleeping (ung bang gusto mo maggitara kaso niyapos mo yung UNAN hahaha)
-Walang gIg (Dito sa province namin kasi puro Dancer at Divas)

OT: Everything is spoonfed na para sa mga aspiring players di tulad namin dati na Rewind, play sa tape... kaya hahaha no excuses allowed!! Joke

d mo alam? ano ba ang magaling sa yo?

[skunkyfunk]

d mo alam? ano ba ang magaling sa yo?

I think Kurt Cobain is magaling.

Jimmy Page is magaling.

Johnny Greenwood is magaling.

Graham Coxon is magaling.

Kim Thayil is magaling.

Shawn Lane is from a different planet though.

All I am saying is, since there are different types of "magaling" players, which doesn't necessitate having a 'schooled' approach to playing, I don't think we should all have to take the same route to being accomplished musicians. 

Pero para sa akin, alam ko kung sino ang hindi magaling.  For me that means someone who doesn't know himself, and cannot play to build a character of his own. 

Don't get me wrong, I listen to 1,207,521 Shrapnel, Magna Carta and Inside Out artists, but doesn't mean I'll give up listening to James Iha or Jack White.

[BlackDiamond]

When i was young this was my reason:

Kaya di ako gumagaling kasi nahihiya ako sa mga gamit ko.

It was a horrible reason believe me.

Bata pa lang may GAS instincts na!
