because.... i didnt even put the right video in my post yesterday. The riff i had in place yesterday was actually the part that happens right before the solo. Its a cool part that is actually sort of easy, but man, kinda hard to do cleanly and smoothly. I played for a few minutes, to warm up and to try and get it down. I dont even remember when i got that moment of me playing it halfway decently. It came out ok though, and that part was meant to be a Clean sounding part, no distortion.

Now, the solo I been talkin about is with more of a distortion sound, maybe some Chorus if you want to be specific, im just using some reverb on this amp. And that is the video that is going up for sure today. Its in standard tuning EADGBE...i think is the correct way to spell it.

Im just so rusty too, so there is a lot of room for improvement. For the 20 years or so, that ive been playing, i really havent put in so much time practicing. It has come and gone. Cycles of it....

like crypto (drum roll)

... but good moment for a reminder that this a Metallica song called Fade to Black. Still one of my favorite songs. I have already done a few other riffs from this same song on prior posts. Its probably a 6 minute long song, im guessing a bit, and uploading videos is still new to me, especially here. Reminds me that i would love to improve my production quality, cuz im just doin it ya know. Plenty room for improvement there too. I watch so many videos, i can see what makes a nice setup. But for now, this will do.

So lets Rock. Mess around with that play button, the video should play, but its tricky sometimes.

1st solo, about 20 seconds into the song, after and acoustic/clean intro (riff from last video)

Even while getting this one uploaded there was just a slight hiccup. I feel like when it uploads and starts to encode, the app is a little touchy, so i had to redo it. I had to cancel the upload, to restart it and make sure things were less busy. I shut off youtube and let the app just sit there and do its thing. When it encoded, it said it was ready, and boom.

So yeah, lets move on to better and brighter days and keep rockin.

We takin steps up this mountain. Lets keep ROCKIN 🎸
