Whew!!!! Just wanted to make sure, now I feel like an idiot. Anyway, we should develop some kind of "council" that would include a whole bunch of people that would critique and rate cover songs that people post, and just make one big post with everyones in it. I dunno if this would really happen, but it could be kinda cool. But, everyone in this "council" would have to write critiques in order to ensure people being heard. Just a thought....Peace

not a good idea because i feel that everyone should be able to give an opinion and would not feel comfortable being in or being rejected from said "council"BigSpeen3436 wrote:Whew!!!!

Please note: there was a tasteless joke in here that I chose to remove because I felt it was too rude. Please note the next, more politically correct, joke. Of course this comes at the expense of humour.BigSpeen3436 wrote:He's got a point.gravedigger wrote:I like hot chicks

I'm just really confused and not yet mad because I think there is a misunderstanding. But, I'm trying to figure out how someone is pointing their finger at me like cave said. I have only said positive things on this site in all cases, except for talking about me being retarded or something. If anyone can help explain whats up that'd be cool..... Peace allcave_cricket wrote:Yeah but that was one response out of how many that have been made? THere will always be someone that will make one bad remark at an inapproprate time.

I agree with what you have been saying but I feel that, for the most part, it has been done that way. OH well.
Peace,But, my original point came from the thread " My first 2 covers..please be nice". Check out the response by BigSpeen.
Peace,

Whats the deal?????? Theres no way the two songs I just posted can be better than his. I have only been playing a year and a half also. And if anyone gave him bad feedback then they are idiots. It takes a lot of time to get good. I sound like I just started playing. If people gave him bad feedback then they have huuuuuuuge egos or have never picked up a guitar in their lifetime. So everyone needs to layoff, because listening to others is what makes all of us better, because we realize we have a lot of the same mistakes in common. So common James, lets hear em!!!!!
I'm not shouting my following response (the all-caps thing)....it was a typo error when edited.
Actually BigSpeen, I did have the right person. Lets not make a big deal out of this, but you totally got all bent because the guy got a critique or two that wasn't all hugs and kisses. The first review was a dickhead one( "I'm not gonna touch this one"), but the next one from gregplaysguitar was a solid review, even though it was pointing out many mistakes made by the guy who posted the song. I never heard the posts, he took them down after the first 2 reviews came in. But don't you think saying "anyone who gave him bad feedback is an idiot....and must have huuuuuuuge egos or never picked up a guitar before" is a bit over the top? I've heard greg before and he knows how to play. I've read other reviews by Greg and he's not one to bash for the hell of it. He gave a good critique....I see no problem with it. I'm willing to bet the guy who posted the songs probably took a step back and re-evaluated his abilities. Hopefully he's practicing more and this will have all been something he needed. Again, I've never heard him playand have no idea how good or bad he is, I'm just going by the reviews that were given.
If I somehow misinterpreted what you had said, then let me know.
