I see you are a man of taste. Summers and Townshend are two of my faves. Don't know Stewart Squires though, or do you mean John Squire of the Stone Roses?
Originally posted by Old Man Whirly!Yeah John Squire is pretty incredible, I'd actually say he's underrated as a guitarist, tbh. He was genuinely original, and massively influential to Blur / Pulp / Suede, etc.

Originally posted by Old Man Whirly!Oh for sure, I listen to some stupidly obscure music that I can't find on there. But, to their credit, they also have quite a few bands that I didn't expect them to have, as well as quite a lot of esoteric '60s stuff that's really hard to find otherwise
I use spotify too, but it has gaps. I wanted to listen to uncle dysfunktional be the Mondays today. Not there. 🙁

I can't do it. Same with some of Metallica and Slayer's down-picking palm-muting stuff. Wrist cramps up to **** after like ten seconds, and that's not even at near to their speed
i gave up on slayer a long time ago, same for post-kill em all metallica. i used to learn bits of this song and that, but whats the point of that.
i can play a mean rythm for jump in the fire. also fast alternate strumming for punk, which is just as fun as it looks

Originally posted by Bashar TegI can do punk. Idk if I mentioned but I was in a punk band, it was a lot of fun, but paying money to travel to gigs that you don't get paid to play, and nobody's there, and you're on when everyone who is there is shitfaced and they're not even listening to you and just moshing to whatever's going, ended up jading me to the whole thing. Fun whilst it lasted tho
