RIP tom petty

Just read he was rushed to hospital after heart attack, was hoping it would be on time to save him.

 

[Militant X 1]

My guilty pleasure?



My god this song is SO catchy and addictive.

Such a happy pop song.

So is this one.......

 

[K-Dog]

I swear there must be at least two dozen songs by this guy I could post. He is legendary.
Hit, after hit, after hit, after hit. This is one of my favorites.
I never got to see him live. I gotta get off my ass. I missed opportunites to see Michael, Prince and now Tom Petty.

We just seen him here in July @ Royal Farms Arena. It was a great show.

Jealous.

An iconic original that brought his own unique style. No one around like him, never will be.

RIP Tom.

RIP Tom.

Master of the four chord pop song. Nobody ever did it better than him in that regard.
Yer so bad is one of the best songs ever written

 

[Tank]

He is indeed. Put PRS on the map. Grew up listening to him. As a guy who's been playing guitar for 15 years, he's a massive influence.

But sorry @Tank Jeff Beck helped Stevie Wonder write Superstition, which while I really like Santana, is easily better than anything Santana has ever written... Or most people have written(I'm a sucker for Stevie Wonder. Basically anything with him is automatically in my playlist).

Do you own a PRS guitar?

 

[Tank]

I can play a few chords on the ukulele. @SepticeyePoe. Guitar in college= instant girls. Literally..... I wish I knew why since I'm only decent.


To change the subject. Does anyone have any massive guilty pleasures that they'd like to admit to having...

No... Mine isn't nickeback....

Okay so here goes mine... I'm legit ashamed of some of these.

Hinder- Lips of an angel.
Basically the entire first album by Maroon five.
Half of Taylor Swift's Country Stuff(her pop stuff is total ass. But for whatever reason whenever I bust out an acoustic guitar with my friends they want me to play fucking Taylor Swift... So I at least make it good Taylor Swift).
I want it that way- backstreet boy(I sang this at a wedding once as a joke. Got a kick out of it)
Ed Sheeran-photograph
Ed Sheeran-Castle on the Hill(sometimes. I have to be in the right mood).
Most of Sara Barellis' music. Except for Brave because let's be real: that song sucks. Uncharted is her best album(I have a thing for girls who play the Piano... Sue me). Also Sweet As Whole is one of the best songs ever written
December 1963, The Four Seasons(not gonna lie though. This is one of my favorite songs ever)
Peter Pan-Kelsea Ballerini(if you've ever actually read Peter Pan, this song is actually fucking genius)
Chicken Fried-Zac Brown Band(bigger Garth Brooks fan. Not a fan of other things)
Kenny Loggins.. Just no further explanation needed. He's genius.

Here's a couple that I probably wouldn't normally admit to or that really fit what I normally listen to. lol

one by a local DC band that has a secret, especially fond place in my........heart. lol




another that is etched in my brain from childhood. love it.

Wait, you've been playing the guitar since you were 4 and you're "only decent"?

 

[Tank]

Every weekend or so, my family will get together for dinner with my grandparents, and after dinner we'll play music together. I play the guitar, my mom and brother (and occasionally my uncle) play the ukulele, my grandfather plays the mandolin, and my grandmother sings. We don't usually play anything too difficult, but it's fun playing together.

This is really cool. What a great way to enjoy family time!

 

[Oldfaithful]

Do you own a PRS guitar?

Broke ass college kid. Don't want to waste my life savings lol. I've played my fair share though. They're awesome

Wait, you've been playing the guitar since you were 4 and you're "only decent"?

I mean. You want me to play blues or rock. I'm your man. I can't shred though.

Sorry to hear about Tom Petty. May he RIP. My favorite song by far was "Running Down a Dream". Loved the MTV vid lol. I believe he first started out as a backup band member to Bob Dylan. Learned how to sing thru his nose like him. Also had a chance to see him at either Merriweather or the place in Manassas. Cant remember. Jackson Brown opened up for him.

You gotta be fuckin kidding lol.

I secretly like the ABC song too.

LMAO! Afternoon delight is a great thing, if you get my drift. At least I think it is as far as I remember. Haha!

 

[SepticeyePoe]

I'm learning to play Reptillia and I feel pretty proud that I can play the chorus.

 

[rossihunter2]

That is a great experience, I'm sure.
