Re: Nighttime guitar playing
tangerine is a nice easy song to play, the only problem is to play along with the recording you have to be tuned down 1/2 step.
I have a guitar tuned down a whole step (I play a lot of ben harper) so I can capo 1 and play that and patience, which is nice.

[img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] I have Pioneer CDJ-1000 CD players, so one thing I do to practice when playing along with tracks that were recorded tuned down 1/2 step is to pitch them up by 5.95% or so, which turns out to be almost exactly 1/2 step. This is much easier than fiddling with re-tuning the guitar all the time. You could do this if you have a CD player with pitch adjust, or, if not, you could pitch up the wav or mp3 by 5.95% in a sound editor, too.

Re: Nighttime guitar playing
yeah I play a lot of Dave (way too much actually) and then a lot of Ben Harper, Dispatch, and Zeppelin.
Some other acoustic stuff like Jack Johnson, Mayer, Martin Sexton, Etc. Lately I'm really digging Coldplay and The Shins. And then just random rock/alternative stuff from the 90's-00's, more on the chill side (Save Tonight, Everlong, etc)

Oh, and Tim Reynolds = God. [/ QUOTE ] Tim Pic after a solo show Group Pic Met him a few times. He's amazing. Completely down to earth, very cool, very short. First pic is of him signing my girlfriend's wristband (we had nothing else to get signed). My ugly head is in the upper right. Second pic is a group shot. I'm roughly 6'1", girlfriend is 5'0". I had to bend way over. He's a complete badass, regardless.

Re: Nighttime guitar playing
A song you might like (or possibly hate, I'm not sure) is Annabella's song by Everclear. Should be easy to play. Here are the lyrics:
I see you roll your eyes You know it makes me smile You are like the sun to me Bright as liquid fire I feel so powerless To hold you up above the world You are quite a lot of trouble Such a pretty little girl Such a pretty little girl You know I'm never home I'm always miles and miles away I feel I'm runnin' out of time Say the things I need to say Call you on the telephone You will not talk to me Yeah you just don't understand You are my everything Anna, Anna Tell me what you want Tell me what you need Anna, Anna, you are never alone You are never alone Anna, Anna Tell me what you want Tell me what you need Anna, Anna, you are never alone You are never alone I like to watch you play When you don't know I'm there See you in your sleep at night Reach out and touch your hair I wanna make this world Be just how you want it to be Yeah you just don't understand You're my everything Anna, Anna Tell me what you want Tell me what you need Anna, Anna, you are never alone You are never alone

Re: Nighttime guitar playing
My oldest daughter's 8th birthday was today. We had the party at Chuck E. Cheese, then came back here as it's my weekend with the kids. It was pretty much a "by request" guitar night; since it was my 8 year old's birthday, I played whatever songs she called out, until she was out like a light after about the third song, at which time my 4 year old continued making requests. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]
Here's tonight's setlist: Ants Marching - Dave Matthews Polly - Nirvana Jenny Dreamed Of Trains - Vince Gill The Man Who Sold The World - David Bowie (Nirvana Unplugged style) Mad World - Gary Jules Yoshimi Battles The Pink Robots - The Flaming Lips Blue Railroad Train - Doc & Merle Watson Fast Car - Tracy Chapman Patience - Guns 'N Roses Land Of Confusion - Genesis Two Step - Dave Matthews I still need to learn some Zep (other than Stairway). I did get a hold of Houses Of The Holy. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
