Nobody ever respects the writers! I write stories for speculative fiction magazines. I can't remember how many times some dipshit would ask to use something I created in an anthology or collection or whatever for free. (Nevermind the fact that they would be making money from it.) Some people think t...

There was somebody on Youtube claiming that, the night before the accident, Andrew Aycock met up with an old friend who was testing out some airplane equipment. Andrew said that he'd be stopping by a friend's house the next morning and that he would fly around to help with whatever it was the guy wa...

Most of you are older. What the hell happened to my generation?! Lol younger people could benefit by lear...

Do they have anybody giving guitar lessons at Musonia?

Just curious.

I actually think that the first VH album is their darkest.

It's easier to start with jazz and other forms of music with no distortion. When trying to figure out harmony, start with quality of the chord (major, minor, etc.), then listen to the bass note. (If you figure out the key first, you'll have an easier time figuring out the chords if you know how chor...

Eddie uses his pinky all the time!
