  • AI, TikTok and Automation threaten both the livelihood and attention span of musicians. But hopefully live music will endure. And it may be thanks to this song and these four chords

    Rory Gallagher was the best to come out of Ireland, his live shows were even better than his albums which is indeed a rare thing

    The "7 Nation Army" riff by The White Stripes could have been played on the 1st guitars 3,000 yrs. ago, jamming at Giza for the Pharaohs! 🎸😎

    Whilst my opinion may be unpopular I’d rather listen to music recorded on an 8 track. I’m fed up with this big machine .
    Also your English is first class but the term you keep missing in this video is “wing it”

    This and creep were the only song I refused to hear during my jobs as rehearsal studio attendant.
    Even more then wunderwall. Tbh most guitarist don’t even play wunderwall properly.
    Most of the band that rehearsed here were into hardcore and metal
    Even then I don’t mind them
    Until someone decided to play both of this song.
    Creep - I ain’t find the storytelling tasteful and the music were flat af
    Zombie - if your vocalist can’t hit the darn note don’t insist on playing it in the original tuning. Most of you guys don’t even know what this song is truly about. Truly a genuine showcase of ignorance.

    Ironically, the I-V-vi-IV in C will save live music. At least for cover bands. CGAmF

    That’s so funny! That’s why I went back to guitar too. Nirvana. Now when I pass I will have a bunch of gear no one wants. My hobby is imitating artists that were relevant back in the late sixties and early seventies. I have to have a good sense of humor when I take my own inventory.

    Totally relate to all of this; Kurt is the reason I picked up an electric guitar when I was 13, I made a video about him and how he inspired me on my channel. One of my go-to open mic night songs is by the Cranberries, it’s Linger rather than Zombie but agree that the song is a great vehicle for enabling a relatively inexperienced group of musicians to perform live ❤❤❤

      Yes they have quite the repertoire. One of my side projects started with a rendition of 'Animal Instinct'

    K.I.S.S. principle applies to music. I am not a pro but have played a lot of open mic stages. Never played in a band. One guitar, one or more voices. My favorite times are when someone else is enjoying what I am doing enough to get up and sing at the mic next to me. I love open mics because the people are there for the music and to hang with other players and singers.
