Jamming that is (what the hell were you thinking? ;) ).
I brought my guitar with me when I left for work yesterday because a buddy of mine (Nick) wanted to go play some songs after work over at his place. Apparently, he is a Bass Guitar player. He has an uber cool Old School Peavey Patriot bass guitar. He takes pride that the bass guitar is as old as the both of us (haha!). He also has this sweet ass sticker on his bass guitar case (Do it in chainmail!).
He also introduced me to his new dog, Teja. I'll add pics on Monday (so I can get the link from him to his web album). Super overly friendly (and most of the times baby-ish) Pitbull/Great Dane mix.
But back to the playing, we kinda winged it but we did make decent progress on Paranoid by Black Sabbath, and Enter Sandman by Metallica. We also did some Come As You are by Nirvana. Apart from that we just played around. Nick played some System of a Down bass lines and various others. I played around with Symphony of Destruction by Megadeth (Mustaine FTW!).
In all it was tons of fun. I enjoyed playing immensely. Though I did take good care of my wrist. ;)
Bass looks so much easier. No fair.. :p
I was all out of sync until Nick had to take Teja out again and I did some quick scales and exercises. By the time he got back, I was already recalling how to play Enter Sandman and my picking and fretting were completely in tune... :P
