QUOTE(Dantrag @ Dec 30 2005, 12:26 AM) Into the Storm by Blind Guardian. It's pretty hard. But I also have the volume on my guitar and the song turned down so I don't wake my parents up. It's hard to hear. Ha! I got it! Except for the solo... It took me awhile to realize that I had to tune my guitar a half-step lower. And here I was wondering why I couldn't get the Eb. -------------------- "Its when murder is justice that martyrs are made"

You could manage it easily, I'm sure. Once you figure out the tuning (
 ) and some of the odd stretches towards the end(Use your damned pinky Dantrag!), it's not so bad, and pretty fun to play. I've just now picked up a song that I was trying to learn about a year ago, and couldn't do; Strange Deja Vu by Dream Theater. Since it's the only Dream Theater song without ridiculous sweepeing solos throughout, I figured it would be easy; I was wrong. It's going more easily than it did back then, but the rythms are so weird. -------------------- "Its when murder is justice that martyrs are made"

Hmm... Ok... I think I'm going to move on to Deepest Blues are Black when I've got the best out of Everlong and also starting on Run with the Devil from Hammerfall, at least see how I can handle it

I've got most of Strange Deja Vu sounding good, but some of the transitions between the melodies still have me stumped.

Well keep practicing Danny, because putting things off never helped anyone. I'm sure you can get it and when you do, record it and put it up here cause' I want to hear your amazing skills.
Anyways, I'm working on Turncoat by Anti-flag, and luckily I have tabs and videos to help me find it out. I', also planning on learning the Immigrant Song just so I can sit down and play the tune for hours. Man, I could never get tired of that song. -------------------- //LEFT ARM PULLS TRIGGER, RIGHT ARM SHRUGS SHOULDER//TRANSMISSION ENDED

I don't think I've heard that song, though. EDIT : I guess this would be the place to post this. Michael Romeo Guitar Solo He's the guitarist from Symphony X, one of my favorites. Really freaking good, too. This post has been edited by Dantrag: Jan 10 2006, 11:33 PM -------------------- "Its when murder is justice that martyrs are made"

After getting Into the Storm and Strange Deja Vu down, I have recently learned the acoustic intro to Dream Theater's "Endless Sacrifice", and Rush's "Spirit of Radio" along with Symphony X's "Accolade II".
Now I'm working on Mirror Mirror by Blind Guardian and Of Sins and Shadows by Symphony X. Both are very challenging, and I suppose that I'll have to come back to them when my skills have advance a little (maybe a lot) more.  -------------------- "Its when murder is justice that martyrs are made"

I'm currently working on Rush's Spirit of Radio.
It's not too hard a song, until you have a guitar teacher that tells you to do it in some really freaking weird chord voicings. -------------------- "Its when murder is justice that martyrs are made"
