Playing guitar, With Fire

Posted by yadwb on July 20, 2009

It’s late and I’m going to bed soon, so I’ll be short. Don’t have that much to say anyway.

Today I mostly wasted my time because every time I looked at my books I couldn’t find a decent reason for studying. So I’ve done more interesting stuff I guess, but I mostly forgot about what I’ve been doing. I remember of playing around with Ruby Mechanize to see if I could use it to post comments on blogs, and indeed it can be done. But I was trying to comment on a blog where comments were disabled so it was a waste of time after all. But it surely made me remember how much my memory suck, because I’ve almost forgot how to code in Ruby. Well, fuck that, I no more get angry because of that, it’s just pointless to get angry at all, it just adds to my mental and physical stress.

Fortunately, my musical memory is reliable to the extent I can still dream one day I’ll be able to play guitar at the Speed of Light (reference for metalheads). I say that because today I’ve started to learn some pieces of “Playing With Fire” by Stratovarius, and I just LOVE that diad-based riff. I’m also playing around with the intro of “Pull Me Under” by Dream Theater, and realized how kick ass of an effect chorus is. One day I will own one, but for now the one embedded in my amp will do.

That’s all for tonight, I’ll try to make up for my laziness tomorrow, maybe with a new Flashback entry.
