it will be a neck injury, try sleeping without pillows, cut down to 1 then none, all migrains come from the neck

[@ciAMkia]

@daniel hopwood I wish it were that simple. Instead, try between 30 and 40 concussions while serving in combat in the military. I've been working with a new neurologist, so there's new hope. Thank you for your concern!

[@spiritman-em4qr]

I developed epilepsy late in life (caused by multiple concussions from work) and it really affected my playing. I picked up the guitar again after a long break and it's not easy making a comeback. Stay strong!

[@ciAMkia]

@spiritman-em4qr Post-traumatic epilepsy is an extremely difficult challenge to deal with. Presumably, you're taking anti-convulsants? I've had a few good friends who faced seizure disorders and were on those meds. It wasn't at all easy for themselves or their families. I hope that you're handling the transition as well as possible. I'm thankful you shared your story, it's inspiring to know that you've taken the time to assist me. Kindness can seem elusive at times these days, so when people are kind to me I'm so grateful. Thank you very much.

[@spiritman-em4qr]

@@ciAMkia Thank you for your kind words, and thank you for sharing your own story! Yes, I'm on anti-epileptic medications and they come with their own set of side effects that are sometimes difficult to deal with.

There’s untalented musicians in every genre, just like there’s talented musicians in every genre-one type of music isn’t objectively talentless. Go listen to MF DOOM, J Dilla, Madlib, Andre 3000, Lady Gaga, Frank Ocean, Joji, etc. and then try to tell me that hip hop and pop musicians don’t have talent. Don’t generalise one genre and base its entire reputation off its worst artists.

He may have not overdubbed, but there are multiple tracks in there. As with all his other non-live covers I've listened to. He is an amazing player and he is right: all songs are performed on one guitar and by one person. Still, he's an amazing player, but even he can't do all those sounds at once.

[@AlexSpetz]

He uses an octave pedal that only affects the lower strings/frequencies
