Billy Idol - Jump

Yes, the Van Halen "Jump"

Cubase 6


Just went out and bought the new Cubase 6. I had to update as my old Cubase 4 would not run in Windows 7. Supercool program. It's gonna cost me hours and hours of time alone and late nights. I can't wait. I might post some recordings soon.

Gotye - Somebody That I Used To Know

Okay, it all started with the original song/video by Gotye from Belgium/Australia. A cool little song.



Then along comes Walk Off The Earth, a band from Burlington, Ontario. A great sounding cover and cool video.



Ahhh, but they tried to trick us into thinking they did this all on one guitar. LIARS!! Maybe they are capable, but this is obviously a studio recording in which they lip synched. Seriously, is it possible to double your own voice live?

But the best is yet to come. A comedy vocal group of YouTube fame did yet another cover, sort of. It's a parody of the Walk Off The Earth video. Funny as hell. Check it out

Guitars

I love 'em. Old ones, new ones. Electric, acoustic. It doesn't matter. Here's a few strange acoustic guitars .
The first one, I don't know much about it. I can't imagine tuning it


This next one is a Dean acoustic. Classic Flying "V" style in an acoustic. Gotta be a bitch to play while sitting down.


I don't know much about this one either but I love the woodwork done on it. Simply gorgeous.

Hawksley Workman - Jealous Of Your Cigarette

Saw this guy live last year. Amazing musician, storyteller and songwriter. My fave song by him.
