I learned to play "Why are we here?" by ear. AC-DC tab should be easy to find though.



Jesse

"Why Are We Here?" is pretty easy. Great song though. "Thunderstruck" by AC-DC is easy, but sound cool.


Jesse

I stand corrected, I havent heard Octavarium yet. When I commented that I thought they were getting ahead of themselves, I was thinking mainly of Six Degrees of Inner Turbulence. There are some great spots on those CD's to be sure, but there are a few stinkers too. Petrucci has a different style tha...

Dream Theater's good songs are great, but their bad songs are just that. I like Dream Theater, but I can't just throw most of their CD's on and let it rip from start to finish the way I can with say, Stratovarius or Sonata. My opinion is that Dream Theater, recently has gotten too far ahead of it's ...

I'll second that, Carmen Electra is a major hottie. Dave Navarro is one lucky bastard!!



Jesse

Happy Birthday!!!

That show started back in 1989, when I was in 8th grade, and it's still going strong. Amazing. I don't watch it like I used to, but the show is very funny. Futurerama was funny too.


Jesse

I'm not saying it should be taken lightly. Death threats are serious. All I'm saying is that IF you pulled that kid aside, and IF you notified the kids parents, sat them down in the principal's office WITH the kid, SHOWED the parents the website, INFORMED them of what they can expect if their kids t...

The school overstepped it's bounds. What a kid does on his or her own time is the business of themselves and their parents. If the threat is known to have existed, the student should be pulled aside, questioned, parents notified, etc. If the threat turns to action, the kid would be bounced from the ...

I like Jack Daniels. Wild Turkey is good too. You know what is cool? Take a shot of Jack, or Turkey, and drop it in your beer of choice, in a mug. It's called a Boilermaker. Slam at least three or four of these and get totally shithouse drunk.


Jagermister and Red Bull is good too.



Jesse

I keep a close circle. I love my friends like family. They are all like brothers and sisters to me. I would do anything for them, and they for me. I am friendly towards strangers. Hold doors open for women, girls, watch the swearing around small children. Normally I won't start a conversation with a...

Beer!

My favorites. Miller High Life, Becks, Guinness, Amber Bock, Rolling Rock, Lowenbrau, Red Stripe, Coors Light, Michelob Light (in a pinch).


I dislike Budweiser.


Jesse

My roommate beat Doom 3 tonight, just as I got home from work. I got "Destroy All Humans" today for the Xbox. That game is awesome. So funny! Need for Speed Underground 2, and Winning Eleven:9, have been in heavy rotation also. Both on Xbox as well.


Jesse

Happy Birthday!!!


Jesse

As you all know my first love is football (American), I also really enjoy soccer. Hockey is cool too. I am sad the Olympics are over. I feel that it is humanity at it's best. Music and sports unite people, politics divide people. I like unity. We have the World Cup coming up though, and that will be...

I must admit, I do enjoy Starbucks coffee, every time I go to Barnes and Noble. I get the large frozen mocha frappuchino w/ whipped cream and chocolate syrup!!!! Yummm!

I can kill a few hours at B and N, it's like a library, but better.




Jesse

Neorave, don't get me started on the BCS!! It's a fucking popularity contest. I was so glad to see USC get beat in the Rose Bowl. Back to skating. I think the U.S. has the same ambition every other country has, and thats to win. Last time I checked that was called competition. Doing a little more re...

I'm not a big fan of these designs because I feel that the shape of the F-50 could confine you, and restrict you into a specific type of music. Also, I'm not big on ESP, but they do make a nice guitar. I haven't really enjoyed any of the necks on the ESP's I've tried. Timo Tolkki, and George Lynch a...

Honestly, I'm not wild about either. The local music store has a surplus of the F-50. I am bit of a traditionalist though so I am biased. I have one of these, although I have a reverse headstock on mine http://www.music123.com/Jackson-Soloist-SL1-BLK--i233744.music Mine is also blue. A great guitar....

I just bought a couple new games for the Xbox. I got Need for Speed Underground- 2, Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic, Winning 11- 9, and of course, Tiger Woods PGA Tour 2006.


These are all great games and a lot of fun.



Jesse

I want to buy a yacht, a big yacht. Invite like 5 of my closest friends with me. Travel the world, by sea.


That would be cool.


Jesse

Born June 15th 1975, makes me 30 years old.



Jesse

Yeah, it is a tough situation. I just turned 30 years old, so I guess, age wise I should be ready for a family. I am but I don't trust myself. The last relationship I was in I was engaged, but I got bored of things. I thought it would pass. The relationship started out on fire, as most relationships...

Yeah this is the broken hearts club Stratolily, LOL! Actually there is a girl I am kind of getting friendly with. I really don't know how to approach it though. She is 26 years old, widowed, her husband died in Iraq while she was pregnant with their daughter. Quite a complicated situation. The obvio...

The last Valentines Day I had with my fiancee (now ex) I took her to Bucca Di Beppo (Italian restaurant) for dinner, then I got us a room at the Hard Rock Hotel, gave her some chocolates, and some lingerie. You can guess what went on that night, but as for material gifts she got me a couple of nice ...

Just to clear this up for the rest of you. The Universe was a seven string guitar made originally for little Stevie Vai back in the late 80's, early 90's. Made by Ibanez, it was available in either black or the really cool multi-color swirl. No two swirl paint jobs were exactly alike, making each on...

My roommate like Godsmack. He bought a live DVD of them and to humor him I sat through it because I am a nice guy. Seriously though, does EVERY SINGLE SONG THEY DO SOUND EXACTLY THE SAME, LOL!!! :lol: Then they did this thing where the vocalist got behind a drum kit and started banging away with the...

I feel blessed and lucky for all that God has given me. My family, although greatly shortened over the past 6 years due to 4 key members passing away, is strong. I recently gained one member back though, my younger brother and I have began to talk again after 5 years of no communication. My friends....

You know, I have never heard Bush come out and say "We pollute as much as we want". I think it might have been interesting to hear the two sentences that proceeded that statement, as well as the two that followed it. Sounds like someone clipped that sound byte to get it to sound just the way you dep...

Monty Python and The Holy Grail is a classic! Sin City was a great movie as well. I've got both of those on DVD. I loved Munich and will get that one when it comes out too.

I just saw "SAW", and I liked it.
