Withholding ideas from the band? Someone's got a degree in piano
@dudarino666
@dudarino666 6 жыл бұрын
Its more about people over complicating ideas to the point of killing good rhythm. The end of every 2nd bar doesnt need some black metal hammer on run down. and tremolo picking a melody to death,. And when others like that idea, and its essentially butchered from how you idealized it. It makes you second guess bringing new riffs in. And I could only aspire to achieving a piano degree. im only a lowly piano string technician.

​@@dudarino666 Oh... I have been in those bands. Where you have something you think is really great, but you just know the others arent going to go for it, or they'll bastardize it (Due to experience). The difference for me, was, it was a wakeup call that either I should take those ideas and do a different project with them (Ala Chester/Dead By Sunrise or Andy Biersack/Andy Black) or... that I was in the wrong damn band.

On the subject of “am I too old to make it”, I spent my 20’s dragging my amps through hundreds of seedy live venues. It was a great experience. However, I’m in my fifties and got a gig as a sessions musician for a pretty big recording studio, and it’s been great. Getting paid for my time is an added bonus. Rock on, Glenn!

A little story time regarding Guitar Center In the beginning of July I was in the trip in America with my father - we started out from the LA. So my father, knowing I am a musician, and I like playing around with writing music and instruments (bass guitars to be precise), he scheduled a visit to Amoeba, and Guitar Center - the latter being relevant for this particular story. So I've been going around, looking around some 5 and 6 string basses, and trying them out, my father was sitting on the couch in the first "section" of the shop, which housed a lot of used/vintage gear, and read the book. I only know what transpired later from my father's tale, but I did see a person in question leaving the shop pissed off. What person in question? My father sits comfily, reads a book, and suddenly some old wanker starts yelling at the dumbfounded chap working there, in his mid 20s. He shouts really loud, with an odd accent, and with the general consensus of "HOW FUCKING DARE YOU, I'M A CUSTOMER, I WANT TO SEE THE MANAGER". Father sits there, and watches, as the kid tries to not melt on the fucking spot (kid was like, half a head taller), humiliated as shit. After a minute or two of nonstop barrage of loud screeching, he takes the paperback book, and throws it at the old codger, so it hits him in the arm. The old guy turns immediately, but before he can refer to my old man, the old man tells him a simple "If you don't like it, there's a door, fuck off". Old guy gets angry as shit, but turns on his heel, and stoutly leaves the room, as my father calmly gets up to pick up the book. Here's the conversation that ensued as he was picking the book: Kid: Sir... thanks, but do you know who that was...? Father: Eh? Kid: ...that was Tommy Iommi. Father: So? Kid: Sir, this guy is a legend, Black Sa- Father: I know who Tommy Iommi is, he might've been a legend 20 years ago, minute ago he's been acting like nothing more but a little twat. Have a good day. Well shit.

25 years ago I was teaching a hearing impaired 15 year old boy to play acoustic guitar. He had only about 25% of his hearing left, but actually became quite good at playing. He was able to concentrate really good, and put a lot of effort into rehearsing. A nice little trick we worked out together was a small block of wood, he could place between His chin and the guitar, when he wanted to 'listen' extra carefully to what he was playing - hearing through his jawbone. Just wanted to share....

I recently used a Kemper for 5 songs in a great studio, instead of my Mesa Triaxis. We used all sims that the engineer profiled himself in that studio. All sounded amazing. It made blending tones incredibly quick and easy. We laid down a great 1st tone, then found a 2nd guitar/sim combination that worked well with it. This saved us so much time and still got us sounds that were unique to the combination of me, the engineer, the guitars, the amps, and the studio.

At 4:26 I can relate to some degree, but there's a limit to tolerance. Musically, this band I was in was incredibly generic. I was on board as long as I got to play drums my way on the new material I recorded with them. Little later I found out they wanted my drums chopped up and aligned right on the grid, in addition to using autotuned vocals and even quantizing the bass guitar. Left the day I found out. Saddest aspect of all this? They considered themselves pop "punk".

I say Bugera is the way to go. Avoid GEN 1 lots of issues, (blue lights on power and standby) they’re pretty close to the amp they’re cloning, (JSX=333XL) I would ask you do look into these for the guys that can’t afford a 5150, triple rectifier etc. I recorded on the Bugera 6262 with a v30 cab. Pretty solid tones.

1. Bugera makes some great sounding amps, there might be some relaibility issues but nothing that makes recording worse. 2. If you feel that you shouldn't share ideas with your band you serriously need to find another. 3. Glenn is right! As for 4x12, not the cheap ones from HB, it's Vintage series, there are good options from other brands at that pricepoint too, it depends on Ohm/Watt and prefered sound from the speakers with the amp that is used with them. Some buy the cheapest 4x12 HB's and install the speakers they like the best in them. Palmer makes makes some great empty open/closed-back 2x12 cabs too, they discontinued 4x12, probably because there wasn't a big enough market for that particular size.

My band won a Battle of the Bands last year after we had the power cut out right in the middle of our "gotcha" tune. Our drummer is a stud and kept pounding away and our instrument power came back up within about 10 seconds so it wasn't a real big deal. The problem was that our mics stayed down but our vocalist just kept screaming at the top of his lungs. There is a long, brutal scream that comes out of a bridge and he put his fucking soul into it. The entire crowd was screaming along with him the whole time. It gave me goosebumps. We won that shit hands down. One of the other bands were the sons of lifelong friends of mine and they really killed that night. If they had won I would have been perfectly happy with the result. They deserve some love. They came to us after and complimented us on how we dealt with the stumble and were impressed with how we dealt with it. I told them that you just act like you meant to do that shit like it's part of the the show.😂 Literally one of the best nights of my life.

I've definitely witheld song ideas from bands that weren't up to par, but not the way that fella was talking about. if a band doesn't practice often, or seems undedicated i'm probably not going to bring any songs i've previously written to them. it has nothing to do with whether or not i think they can do the songs justice. i'm always more than willing to create new songs and music with any band i'm playing with though. i'm not going to hold back ideas, riffs, lyrics, or vocal melodies just because i don't think my band can't play it. i'd rather challenge them to play it and add to it. see what develops. that's how a band should work. blending ideas and abilities together. the only bands i wouldn't share ideas with are the ones that just aren't willing to work together at all, or people are just super premadonna's about their songs. but i probably won't stay in those bands very long, unless i'm very specifically brought in as a 'hired gun' to just do what i'm told. i mean, if you're the latest Megadeth lead guitarist, you don't tell Dave Mustaine how to write rhtyhm riffs! if you're all-in for your band, you should be sharing ideas with them to develop them to their fullest. if you're not all-in for your band, either because of your attitude,or because of theirs, you shouldn't be in that band assuming it's not temporary normal band relationship ebb and flow. for me, it's never about musical ability or proficiency as to whether i play in a band. it's about how much work, and how willing to work together the members are. not if they sound like me. in fact, i look for musicians that don't sound like me to play with. always have.

You described it better than I did. Its not about band member skills so much as it is trying to make everything sound blacker or darker for the sake of just being so. So tacking on littler hammer on temelo pick runs every few bars and it kills a good steady rhythm. The idea starts out a little thrashy and ends up porn grind. So it makes me hesitant to bring in new ideas, I dont wanna see them get altered so heavily. So I started recording my ideas for myself and building songs and structures myself. Maybe that will eliminate so much over development. Thats kinda why I asked the question. To see if other people are dealing with these same thoughts. And if they had good results with either way. I play as a "hired gun" for another band where i just fill in guitars. But my main band is far less experienced and some would rather play more shows over practice songs. Its a kinda fame/passion vibe for me. Id rather write something satisfying to myself than let other people shred that idea into something that sounds brutal and like everyone else. This whole thing kinda makes me think I just need to start my own thing. That way I can only blame myself for short comings. Haha.

Bradley, ahh i see. that makes sense. yeah, i think a part of the mutual respect of playing in a band is to let people mess with your riffs every once in a while. adding your own riffs is always a better route than modifying a riff that isn't yours to begin with though. mods this should be suggested super rarely, and held in your pocket for when you have a really great mod to a riff, or alteration. it would be frustrating to see every riff you bring in get modded the same stale way every time. maybe suggest they leave your riffs alone, but instead add their own? or make up a separate variant version to play after as a compromise. if they're changing everything you're doing, they're not embracing the dynamics that will make the band unique and original. i think there's a difference between writing a song together, and bringing a completed song to a band. but i don't think anyone in a band should be constantly changing other member's riffs. that's too nit-picky, unless you are super bro's and just have that creative relationship and can feed off of each other's ideas at the microscopic level. but any relationship takes time to build, and some people won't be capable of it no matter how long you play with them. periphery writes music in a really unusual way i recently realized. it seems like the drummer doesn't write his own parts, but interprets them to his playing, the singer hardly even meets with the band recording at his own home, and other unusual stuff. i'm willing to bet it took them a while to develop this very unique system that i assume works for everyone involved. check out thier making of blah, blah blah, album video on youtube. (i'm not actually a periphery fan, so i don't remember the name of the album). i quite a band i really enjoyed for somewhat similar reasons. after about two years i realized they weren't going to learn any of my riffs/songs, nor be able (emotionally/socially) to write songs creatively together as a team. it was just one person bringing in completed songs. to be honest, i don't mind this setup, and have worked as a hired gun guitarist before, but that wasn't what this band talked about and agreed upon. it was the opposite. and for me, that's a no-go. i can't work with people who consistently say one thing and consistently do the exact opposite. unfotunately it was the same for the business and recording side too. i'm hyper flexible and believe in adapting, but in my experience that's a personality trait in people that is not going to change, so it was time to go.

11:24 I just checked the shipping costs for a Harley Benton 4x12 cab to the United States. It's saying only $34.38, but on the shipping info page it says that anything exceeding 31 kg (which this definitely does) is subject to extra charges. I was able to go through the checkout process up to the payment screen with the standard shipping rate active, so you might be able to snag it cheap.

About not "wasting musical ideas", I also have a very specific vision for how I want the music I hear in my head to sound in real life, and I have this suggestion for anyone in the same boat. Do like Tom Scholz and Jeff Lynne did: PLAY IT YOURSELF!!! If a musician Jeff Lynne hired couldn't play the part he wrote better than he could, Jeff recorded it himself. Tom Scholz recorded most of the instruments on the first Boston record. I have a lot of respect for these musicians because of this, because it shows musical integrity, or being true to the idea that you're trying to bring to life. If the music is worth it to you, people's egos be damned. If they can't play it, YOU play it. If you have the opportunity to that is. Jump on that opportunity though sooner rather than later. Cheers and good luck! P.S. Don't diss your bandmates though

We came in with a song we wrote lyrics and all and to be fair we’re very young and we were used to playing in a college DIY studio and doing all ourselves but this producer turned our songs into this master piece he went over vocal melodies and changed some instrumentals for us although we didn’t like being dependent on him (our fault we should be more open minded to that) i am extremely grateful that he shared his ideas and that we tried them because now we have an epic single!

Really impressed by the question about visually-impaired sound engineers. I've got some visual acuity limitations, but I'm not legally blind. Even so, small text on a screen is extremely frustrating for me to read. I use a secondary monitor with my laptop in my office, which really helps with some of that smaller text, but it also forces me to use my ears more. You're absolutely right, too, about the other senses picking up the slack when one isn't functioning properly. I got into live sound while I was in school (not studying sound), and even starting out people were pretty impressed by how good bands sounded when I was behind the desk. Working with good musicians who aren't assholes with egos the size of Alaska is helpful, too. Anyway, some of that experience from live has carried over to working with the recordings from those shows, and again people are impressed. Wanted to share those things with you, as someone who is visually impaired. Thanks Glenn.

I am surrounded by WAY more talented youngsters than myself, especially being so close to Berklee school of music. But I find that I naturally possess skills and the mentality of the old school that these younger people have to learn and catch up on. So my point is, forget age. You may bring a lot to the table that younger people simply can't through experience and progression. And what you grew up on and love may just be back in full swing popularity.

I've been catching up on the channel the last days as I felt I needed to relax a bit... I always looked forward to VC and Stupid Musician's Texts videos. I got into a QA Automation Engineering job, so, sadly, between that and finishing college and the fact that my DAW stopped working, my music production 'career' has been put on hold for a long, long, long time. I'm really looking forward to the next college break so that I can finish a project. Although, before I started working, the vocalists that were 'involved' never made time to work on it. Hopefully this year will be different! I'm a big advocate of working around the vocalist instead of riffing a song in 2 minutes and then him/her not being able to do anything other than yelling over a single pitch. Also, a good vocal melody trumps lyrics almost every time. Working the other way around I feel like you're just putting the vocalist on a tiny cage he/she will have a hard time getting out of. Better save that cage for the lead guitarist (stop soloing over the vocals all the time you as******) Anyway, I can tell you that the Bob Rock thing works even better on a keyboard as you can *easily* add the chord progression / harmony reference as well.

Hey Glenn, regarding the Bugera thing: I've had this 1990 (non-infinium version), that is more or less like a JCM 800 copy. Awesome sounding amp but it came with a bit of trouble, it arrived with a broken power tube and it suddenly cut any output for a couple seconds then return to channel 1. It turns out it had some overheating issues because of the way it was designed so my tech added a heat diffusor on the back and replaced the broken tube with a set of Sovteks 6L6s. Tone wise it asked for nothing to a JCM2000 and if I would've kept it it would make for a great studio amp, there is a very old video in my channel trying to reamp a DI tack if it serves any purpose of knowing that specific amp. Now the whole "bugera sucks" thing took off because of this kind of detail but all in all they can be great amps as far as my experience goes. Cheers from Mexico.

Glenn i think you touched on this subject recently regarding everyone using the same gear and things beginning to sound all the same. My two cents is that i think it would be very healthy for us to beginning freshening up with different gear. I just don't subscribe to the thinking that "such n' such" formula is the only thing that sounds good. My setup is fairly weird just from not having much frame of reference when i built it, but i'm pretty happy with it. Its tonally versatile. Its a blend of working with what i have and buying a couple expensive pedals. Bugera 333, peavey valve king 4x12(stock), orange jim root 2x12(stock), zakk wylde wah (kinda hate it), keeley 4 knob, keeley katana clean boost, mxr chorus, ts9, joe bonamassa mini fuzz, mesa throttle box, mxr full bore metal (lol). I run everything through the clean channel only on the bugera while sometimes using the amp's reverb. Keep in mind it is expensive when all put together, but i built it over the past 5 years. Also its built around versatility because i was in a cover band that played everything from 50's music to modern metal. (that's why i have so many distortions and OD's.) I didn't want to be twisting knobs on stage.

Man I hate that people are feeling like I hold myself superior. TBH our bass player is probably our best guitarist. Hes a just a great musician. However. Its more about seeing what i feel are good ideas turned to mush...like when Yngwie plays a cover song with someone. Its great, but somehow its too busy and look at me in places. My ideas were/are becoming over complex and non musical and it just makes me wanna hold them back. Or just bring them ideas i feel suit their style.

As a knuckle dragging, mouth breathing bass player who's opinion shouldn't matter... the Bugera Veyron Mosfet bass head is KILLER. It has replaced my USA made amps such as Hartke, Peavey, SWR, and others. Can't speak for the guitar stuff, but the bass heads are fantastic.

As far as withholding ideas from the band, that was how The Police worked and Stewart Copeland explains it well in interviews. It was less about an ego and more about not showing all your ideas at once.

Hey, Glenn, to your fan in Pakistan: I have a friend who aspired his entire life to be a full-time musician. He has been in bands which seemed to fall apart at the last possible second, such as the day OF recording their debut album after having gotten some local notoriety putting on small shows. Finally, at 43, he met some people and put a band together. They immediately started turning heads in their city. It's never too late! Also, don't forget about death metal grandma!
