Also did a so called Fringe Festival thing somewhere or other, and my "witty" parting shot was..
"if this is a fringe festival, I reckon I've won already.. Thank you an good nite..."
( I'm a card ain't I ..)
Certainly sound good enough to me, for the purpose anyhow. I've had a bit of a scan thru them, interesting stuff
I'll end up trying out some Beatles songs if I'm not careful.. 😁
I'd say probably way more people play predominantly down strokes.
The upstroke malarkey is maybe a bit of a thing among the "started in the punk era" and certainly "never had lessons" mob, of which I'm guilty on both counts.
I can't see that, just a load of adverts andcrap!
I'll see if I can take a pic of mine
OK Dimensions are 4ft at longest point, 16 ins at widest (plus c. half a fingernail in both cases) HTH
If you're coming from being a finger player I guess the fingers are generally doing up strokes by their very nature so it'd make sense.
I've always been mainly a pick player so that's not why I evolved preferring up strokes. I've ever analysed any of this either but interesting anyway, I wonder how many others out there are upstroke - centric?
I'd suggest he just plays like that! I use up strokes all the time, always have done since day one, no doubt it's "wrong" but it seems natural and works for me.
I kind of doubt he's thought "oh I'll use up strokes" as an "effect"
Not problem as such, just that they're (or the stuff I've seen is) very mass produced cheapo parts, quite adequate for a budget build project, but certainly nothing to say "ooh Wilkinson" about 😁
I was pulling your leg again, that's an expression meaning a good natured teasing joke!
Emo is a rock genre kind of distantly related to Goth in a way, probably best to Google it for examples to listen to (tho I doubt you'd be very keen on it!) My Chemical Romance would be one example
