I'm really excited I've managed to get a day ticket for the Friday (2nd round ballot!) to see Metallica, Megadeth, Slayer & Anthrax.

Never seen Metallica live before - and have really wanted to, so looking forwards to it!

Only found out I'd got the ticket last night, so then had the challenge of finding a hotel that wasn't fully booked, but found one in the end...

I actually don't subscribe to any, I might see stuff on the aol/  msn pages when I'm checking my email, but I don't watch the news or read any papers.

Most of it is somewhat depressing, although it does lead to a few embarrassing moments, when people start discussing events I have no knowledge of, but I can live with that... default/smile

I think I managed to work it out in the end default/smile .. but I still have trouble with the combined D/F#  chord..  your thread about your elbow made me rethink how I was doing it - because hooking my thumb over the top of the neck was really hurting. So now I am up to the stage where I can do the song ok but hesitate on that one chord change...  more practice of the fingering change I guess. default/smile

How long does it take you to master a new song?

Yep - don't ignore pain...

The only thing to do really is sit and practice the change into the d/f and from that to the other chord, and then gradually try and do it a little quicker, it will come, just takes time  default/smile

How long does it take to master a song - well it depends how complex it is... I've been working on 21 guns for a week and its not quite right, its getting closer, but I'm not good enough to play along with it yet... (well I was ok with the simplified version I was doing before my lesson, but I've been given the correct version now!)

My guitar teacher has gone independent and I know need to take my amp with me to my lessons, so I was wondering about getting a small microamp, that I can leave in the car, and just use for lessons.

I'd looked at the orange micro crush, and wondered if anyone had tried one?

I've got 2 Line 6 Spider IV's so don't really want to spend much, just looking for a cheap, portable soln.

thanks
