LiveMusic Posted September 22, 2001 Share Posted September 22, 2001 I was replying to the favorite poster thread but decided to start another one. I had said "I couldn't vote for just one; there are many favorite posters. All have been very helpful to me. I don't understand why this forum isn't more active than it is (although it's pretty active). I don't go to others (I don't know the links... hint) but I wish this one were more active. Great stuff here." And it struck me... I would think that guitarists outnumber keyboard players and recording engineers, etc. by a huge margin yet this guitar forum is less active than those. Why do you think that is? Do lots of guitarists have an attitude? ------------------ Duke > > > [ Live! ] < < < Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tedster Posted September 22, 2001 Share Posted September 22, 2001 No, we're just busy making music while those other guys are sitting in front of their computers. 'Cept me and a few others, of course... "Cisco Kid, was a friend of mine" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sbrock1san.rr.com Posted September 22, 2001 Share Posted September 22, 2001 I spend a lot of time at The Keyboard Corner and Craigs Forum. There's always plenty of discussion on recording and keyboard forums because they are gear-intensive arts and things change rapidly because of technological advances. While they are busy pondering dither rates and physical modeling we are asking "whats your favorite pick ?". At most guitar forums people like to talk about famous guitarists. This one is great....no that one sucks...kind of mindless banter that can get on your nerves. You post some some of the more interesting questions Duke, so don't be discouraged and just keep 'um coming. If we had streaming video conferencing can you imagine how amazing this forum would be. We could share techniques and chord progressions, we could get together for nightly jam sessions. I want the future NOW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heehee... good one. Actually, I got something out of that one! I used to go to another site... I have totally forgotten what it was. But it was visited by a lot of teens. Man, what a waste of bandwidth. I would sometimes get something useful there but I had to wade through gobs of senseless b.s. This forum is among the best I've ever seen on any subject. For an amateur like me who isn't afraid to ask any question, it's a godsend. You guys probably roll your eyes at some of my questions. http://www.musicplayer.com/ubb/wink.gif Hey, you get a chance to show off with your brilliance! Actually, it's evidence of the power of the internet. That streaming video thing you mentioned, that is likely coming someday. That will be just too cool. Sites like these, if you are willing to ask questions, can save you a LOT of work wondering and searching for an answer to something. It's having a herd of professional guitarists from all over the globe on retainer. ------------------ Duke > > > [ Live! ] < < < Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is more than enough know how here to get into guitar related topics on recording, live playing, song writing and production to name a few. Just my 0.2pence worth Simon http://www.musicplayer.com/ubb/smile.gif ...remember there is absolutely no point in talking about someone behind their back unless they get to hear about it...
