Conversation Between Cz and Meat Puppet

  1. I was never too good with changing keys. I know how important it is but the whole thing is... really just so ominous to me. I tried to understand it by reading as much as I could find off the internet, but I still can’t get a very strong grasp on it.
    I mean, it’s like it is something someone has to be smart to do. It just confuses me so much, and everyone else makes it out as being so easy. Gragh!

    I do think I have a slight idea of it, however. Is it something like... if you were playing a D in the key of A, it would become a G in the key of D? Or is it anything remotely similar?!

    I kind of do the same thing with A barre. Though my fingures aren’t really pudgy. It’s easier on electric guitar because I am usually able to just change it into a power chord—a 5th I think is what they are called *isn’t too sure*—and it ends up sounding much the same, but on acoustic guitar those chords just sound so... boring.
    Though, for some reason, I find the A barre easier on the higher frets... perhaps from 5-10 on my acoustic (not cuts )

    There are people that could have helped me with this stuff, but I’m just so embarrassed to ask them. Last time I asked something and they were like NOOB but not with that word but a similar word.
  2. I was thinking of the note, but I must admit that I have never felt too comfortable with the C# chord or its variants. If I had a choice, I'd go for the C barre shape, but often I find the high F to be too low in pitch for the melody I wish to play, so I must play one of the more difficult versions instead. The A barre is particularly irritating because I have pudgy fingers and I often mute the high G# note and the whole thing sounds muffled and horrible. Sometimes I get so angry that I just play the song in another key to spite the C# chord. It doesn't seem to care, but it makes me feel better.
  3. That’s what I was taught when it came to the barbecue. But apparently I am wrong. Apparently that is the “redneck” way to doing it. Now I find out that what I thought was more of a grill is actually a barbecue. What I thought was a barbecue is actually... well, I don’t know yet. The person correcting me didn’t actually have a name for it. But he assured me that I was wrong.
    Ugh. I hate relearning things.
  4. C# really ticks me off at times.
  5. Indirect heat. Barbecue. Indirect heat.
  6. Well, then I am totally screwed. Way to ruin my career Meat Puppet.
  7. Yeah, that must be what he meant. This heat must be confusing the poor boy.
  8. As creativity goes, that was pretty creative I guess.
  9. Man, I got a really bad headache when I came into your user notes. Well, not right when I came in I mean like I loaded them and started reading them for a minute or two and then BAM so fast I almost yelped I did but I felt a simple moan would do the diggy thingy.
  10. Prawn island is named prawn island because it sounds like pr0n.
