Oh, so nobody is guessing the song/artist?

In that case, mine will be "Northern October" by Northern Ontario Black Metal Preservation Society.

Though highly doubt anyone was going to do that. haha

This is my submission for the letter N:

Night Ranger - Don't Tell Me You Love Me

Oops, I went over the one minute mark by 16 seconds. This was recorded with my JB loaded Charvel San Dimas Style 2 2H. I was playing through my Blackstar HT-5 with a TC Electronic G Major in the loop.

I figure since we have a week to do this, I may re-record everything on my Roland VS-1880 DAW and make it sound a hell of alot better.....just for the hell of it.:)


Since this new software will not allow me to post the video of the original song, here is a link to it.:)

First band used to play it. NOFX Bottles To The Ground. It's a fun riff and the song kinda skips beats towards the end. It's really a blast to play.

I dig that Nazareth, too! I believe it's called Hair of the Dog. I play it a bit differently.

Ultrasonics in thar?
 
Re: Game: Riffmaster 2012, volunteers who can record audio/video requested

Yep. A pair of Ref 6s. My video tone sucks, too. It's much bigger in person, obviously, but I don't really have much in the way of recording media...iphone.

For those who have posted, thanks for your quick responses.
Jolly: Yes Nelly Furtado would count under "N"

There are more than enough bands out there that begin with every letter of the alphabet and enough songs to go twice over.

While it is frowned upon, there is nothing wrong with posting clips of the same song but by two different players.
And I do specify "TWO". 3 people resorting to Nazarath is just ridiculous.
Are you guys forgetting Nirvana?

Jolly: Please condense your postings (20-21-22). Otherwise this thread will have 10 million posts by the time it ends.

The whole point of this game is to learn songs in genres you may not usually listen to. It will expand your technique and knowledge.

Re-recordings are allowed as long as they are of the exact song. Please delete your original posting and replace with the new recording.
Please do your best to keep clips under a minute. Speed it up or cut things out. Your choice.

Mine should be up tomorrow.

****IN LOL AT :14!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh...and what is it?
 
Re: Game: Riffmaster 2012, volunteers who can record audio/video requested

I think the fact that you can plainly see I'm only wearing boxers is really the finishing touch.
 
Re: Game: Riffmaster 2012, volunteers who can record audio/video requested

I did notice that but not until watching :14 for the upteenth time.
 
Re: Game: Riffmaster 2012, volunteers who can record audio/video requested

It might be worth exchanging phone calls, as Jolly suggested. He and I did that yesterday to make sure we weren't stepping on each other's toes. Never know-you might be able to get ideas from somebody else. I hadn't played that song in years so it wasn't even in my mind til I googled, "band names that begin with N," and found NOFX. Before yesterday, I hadn't played that in at least 10 years.

See? Already doing some good. I'd forgotten about them, altogether. Fun band.

This is the stupidest rules Ive ever seen. It makes Jollys ridiculous rules look good.

I knew it was only a matter of time before you chimed in with your dumbassery to try and start screwing things up. Like I told you with a PM, go start your own f'n thread with your own f'n rules.

If this were a contest, I think we'd have a winner this week.
Honestly, I didn't know Ibanez RG's were capable of making sounds like that. This S#IT is :banana:
