Guitar finger exercises-Most players need them

For starters I am not a writer. I am a guitar player and you probably are too. So if you moonlight as an English professor please don't contact me with corrections. That being said let's talk about finger exercises. For this article when I refer to finger exercises I am talking about the 2,3, or 4-finger chromatic type exercise.

It seems like there are two schools of thought when it comes to finger exercises. One is that they are totally necessary when learning. In 10 years of teaching guitar I find this to be about 95% true. The students who work hard on this area of their playing always do better than those who don't.

The other school of thought is that they are totally useless. For some players who absolutely tear it up on guitar, this is true. They became amazing players without doing any finger exercises but for the most part, players need them. I have read interviews with Yngwie Malmsteen where he mentioned that he didn't practice this kind of stuff. (Like his playing or not the guy can throw down with anybody.) There are always exceptions.

Steve Vai has reported to have practiced finger exercises as much as 3 hours a day. They were that important to him. Robin Trower is said to have practiced them "religiously" for a year. I have read articles with B.B.King, Zakk Wylde, Tom Morello and a boatload of other players who all worked on their technique using exercises. I personally know jazz players, classical players, country players and metal players all who completely tear it up and still work on exercises everyday.

Think about this. How much have you improved as a player over the last week, month or year? If it's been a lot, great! Keep doing what you are doing. If you are not where you want to be as a player, grab a metronome, finger exercise book and your guitar and spend some time trying these out. You will see results. Go slow and keep track of your metronome settings. Only increase the metronome by one or two clicks each day. It may not sound like a lot but after few months you will have sped up quite a bit. Also by tracking your progress will keep yourself motivated because you will be able see your results. This in turn will make you want to work harder. One of the reasons some people give up on guitar is because they can't see the results of their practicing. So make sure to do this.

It's very important to remember that this is only one part of playing guitar. There are so many other areas to address but if you aren't happy with your fingers better start here.

Anyway, Thank you for listening.

The Death-Defying Warehouse Party Life

About an entire local music industry that's rarely heard from, briefly navigated by a remote being that coalesces, rarely, around music scenes and their absurd atrocities; published by "The Stranger" weekly newspaper of Seattle, WA.

Sonny Chelf is the orneriest house party producer I know who hails from Tacoma. In fact, he's the only such producer I know from Tacoma. Most of those kinds of guys hang about the Seattle area, drifting back and forth in their musical skeins and ongoing search for monetary angles.

Jason Alley's from Issaquah. They both operate forklifts in warehouses for their real livings. And I met them over coffee awhile ago at Starbucks on Broadway for a happy, peppy interview with two of the greater Seattle area's own warehouse party producers.

Sonny, casual, relaxed and vivacious, wore "Portuguese" golden earrings; Jason, soft-spoken and shy, wore a diamond-blue ball cap over his sweet blue eyes and blond hair. Sonny is fair and Black, but doesn't sound that way until you press him, and then a trickle of southern Blacklish begins to filter in, conversationally speaking.

How long have you been involved in the warehouse game, I suddenly asked.

Sonny: The first part of this took place in 1981. That was in Germany. Parties in Germany used more hype. Parties here seem to be more about money and competition.

Jason: I joined TUF Productions for the last party. I joined with another party than ours...some producers have a different agenda than others...(indicating Sonny, giggling.)

What is your agenda? I asked the cute black dude.

Sonny: First we sit there and have a headache. Nah, usually I like to find a space first. That's kind of a last minute thing you have to do.

Jason: There's been a lot of problems with the city. The city is pushing hard to shut the shows down.

Sonny: There was a battle over permits being in order.

Jason: The city would threaten to take the house over.

Sonny: Yeah.

Jason: The city would intimate that a party would be through. The owners of the building would refuse to rent to those who produced shows, for fear their properties would have police action taken against them.

These statements led to general murmurings amongst us.

So, whatever is your "agenda" now, I softly inquired.

Sonny: (About) the agenda? Line up the DJs!!! They come from everywhere, basically. When we produce a flyer, we try to promote it (the party) day in and day out. During that time, we finish producing the rest of the show. Lights, sound, security, permits, "etcetera." And then it's showtime! I like to get in a building at noon, but it never happens. Just to fine-tune the building! (He laughed, sliding slowly backwards in his seat.)

Jason: If we have decorations, some people put up fences. (I never found out what "fences" are.) It needs all completed. The sound system usually arrives in the middle of things.

We joked around about the house movement...."Yeah, the houses are moving!!!" as I'm not much of a raver m'self, yet. The joints do indeed jump.

What message to others, anyway, do you guys have to impart?

Jason: Positive energy.

Sonny: Peace, love, joining one another together. But after the party comes the teardown. I hate it, but it has to be done.

I asked Sonny if that's his real name. Yes, it is. He was wearing a hunting cap, Polynesian earrings, and he vaguely resembled a certain letter of the alphabet due to his glasses.

Jason's blue ball cap was fastidiously reversed. Two more either-bread and mayonnaise guys could not be found, but they were definitely having to skirt the law.

I finally found out what happened last spring, which had been the current House Party Mystery Scenario.

Sonny: A dividing of the whole scene here occurred. There were occurrences of two parties being thrown on the same night. Something had to stop. Seattle's not that big. It's not that good here, we need more party room. Evolution (back in October, and partially run by a close relative of mine named Joachim, incidentally) just had 1500 people. It was over 15 (hundred), really.

Jason: We had over 1200. But Seattle is not really a good indicator. In LA (what doesn't begin, end, and stall out in LA?) they have BIG huge parties, with a couple hundred thousand people, easily.

A couple...what? I stupifiedly intoned, slurping my Starbucks. That couldn't be real, I thought, they'd need a football stadium...which they have, somewhere.

I dreamed to myself, the party interview vortex has been reentered. I've been being told that everyone and no one ever interviews these warehouse party guys. Now I see why. No one ever believes them when they talk about the party sizes.

Sonny then said he begged in on things with Jason through a mutual friend of theirs named Tim. On Tim, Sonny said, "we've talked to Tim. How're you?" This, referring to my earlier interview more on the Seattle end of things, with Joachim. Tim, there, is not a part of the company anymore. I guess that's the party vortex for you.

Sonny next managed to imitate the world's blandest, meekest expression, which was already on Jason's wan, pink face.

Jason: All I have to say is we hope people keep supporting the shows.

Sonny: I'm the quiet person of all this. I like to come in like the wind and leave...like...the wind...

Jason: I like to be around the people. I like to be around the friends. (I always got the impression this is a tightly-knit, hard-to-enter crowd. But I asked them about making a living at it.)

Sonny: I like to be around this for the money. If I didn't do this for the money, I wouldn't do it.

It feels like I've learned, after several interviews with Seattle/Tacoma's warehouse partying folks, that there's no money in this, really. Off the last shows, they don't seem to have made a dime.

PeaceFrog's Civilization party in November barely broke even, in fact losing at least $200. One of the PeaceFrog producers told me only about half the people coming in even paid. I don't think Joachim got his cut at all. But their group is still plugging away at making the lively, eventful, and appreciably loud parties continue to happen.

Sonny said, the way I feel...it might make the WRONG money...(I think he meant the probably drug revenues from hangers-on selling at the parties.) Me, I broke in with: But, what if you were, say, normal?

Jason: Good point.

Sonny: What if everybody else was like what's on the street, already there. (Recall that Sonny's Black, please.) You're gonna get 'em "thowed in jay-al." I've done two (parties) in Tacoma (an infamously Black establishment, in some ways.) There's a problem with that. Seattle people don't travel. The Dome is too commercial. This isn't...a commercial event...that I do.

Go to shows, Sonny said. I have a real job. I work, in a warehouse, driving forklifts. I'm a laborer. Saturday nights are my date. That's the party date. (He pretty much implied this is his social life. I am forced to think both Sonny and Jason are house-devoted, maximally.)

After this pleasant, caring interview time was spent, one happy writer left those two fine, unrude, music-bestrewed dudes to hit their next appointment in town. The memory lingers, but the music is fortunately elsewhere, waiting for the next party to begin. From the sound of things, I would suggest checking out LA, if I were you.

Record Labels galore at New Music Label.com –

Toronto, ON March 18, 2007 - The music industry has changed more in the past five years than it has in the past 20 years. The time between the introduction of the CD and the introduction of sites such as Napster were rosy indeed. Few expected the changes that have occurred in the past few years. Album sales are down while marketing costs are high. The bottom line - industry professionals are searching for the next big thing.

Television programs such as "Rock Star: Supernova" and "American Idol" prove that there is a wealth of talented musicians in the world. Most however, haven't been able to find the necessary tools and resources to help make their dreams a reality. While one aspiring talent may have been fortunate to meet some label representatives at a recent gig - has that turned into a career? Many musicians are not familiar enough with the business of music to be able to negotiate a deal that is beneficial for all parties? Some are unsure what it is they should be looking for - marketing support, studio time and most importantly the mentorship.

The answers to these questions are but a click away. An innovative new website, http://www.newmusiclabel.com enables its members to connect with industry professionals who are looking to manage, promote, book, market and be part of the next wave of the music scene. From opportunities to have your music heard at festivals to finding the right management representative whose goals are concurrent with yours - find everything you are looking for to launch your band in one spot, right from your desktop.

There has never been a better time for aspiring musicians - the industry is hungry for new talent and is keen to promote the next superstar. With the right tools and connections, that dream could become reality for many.

Outsource to the Philippines using new online International Job search site for Employers and Jobseekers
Toronto, ON April 11, 2007 - Outsourcing has become a reality of doing business today in the global economy. Cutting costs while increasing revenue to compete in a vastly changing global marketplace is at the forefront of the minds of those running both small business and international organizations. A new online International Job search site for Employers and Jobseekers in on the web at http://www.philippinesoffshoring.com
Offshoring, the process of relocating business processes from one country to another, has become the new buzzword in boardrooms around the world. The growth of offshoring can be traced to the incredible explosion of telecom and internet services experienced over the past 10 years. Moving the production or manufacturing sector of a business from one country to another can now be made seamlessly. This coupled with the vast amount of available labour in many financially appealing locations makes offshoring a sound business solution.
The Philippines is rapidly becoming one of the top offshoring destinations due largely to its large pool of technical resources. Safeway, a prominent retail chain started offshoring its IT in the Philippines in 2003. Its original staff has grown six times since its inception. And this is but one example.
Whether you are an employer seeking talented and experienced individuals to hire or are looking for new and challenging opportunities, registering with http://www.philippinesoffshoring.com is logical first step. A one-stop solution, the site is win-win for both parties - with a few clicks, employers can find the individual possessing the skills and training required to meet their business objectives. And jobseekers put their resume in front of decision makers.
About PhilippinesOffshoring.com:
Philippinesoffshoring.com seeks to assist companies in the US and Canada to relocate their production, manufacturing, or services to the Philippines. It is also a top job search site for career-minded Filipinos seeking employment.

There had recently been a battle between musicians and recording companies with several websites that were offering music downloads illegally. However, since then there has been a dramatic decrease of music piracy. If you still think getting music downloads illegally is still the best way to go there are a few things you need to consider. When you get music downloads you are also most definitely downloading viruses, malicious code and spyware onto your computer. In addition, if that happens there goes your music player.

The Internet police are still looking out for rouge music downloading. Have you heard of the 12 year old kid that was sought after and sued by music industry giants for downloading and selling copyright music? No one is immune to the law, so beware of rogue sites. There is also a moral issue here. Downloading music without paying for it is stealing from the music artists who work so hard to create quality songs for their fans.

Downloading music legally is both secure and free of viruses and spyware. While the artists receive their hard earn cut of the money also. Everybody wins with legal music downloads.

No more going to music stores or retail stores fishing through thousands of CD's to find the song you want by the original artist. All you need to do is go to a legal music download website and download until your heart's content. You can even preview a song or an album before you download it. No being stuck with a lot of songs you don't want just because you wanted the main song on the CD.

With music stores, there is the time constraint issue. Download music any time of the day or day of the week, 24/7 without limits. There are hundreds; maybe even thousands of music downloads services online offering music of all genres. These music genre specific sites offer styles like yoga, Christian, meditation, Rap and country. This type of variety gives you many choices to choose from.

The majority of music download websites require you to become a member and pay a membership fee. There are some websites that require members to pay for each download and others where the member pays weekly or monthly for unlimited downloads.

When you get music downloads you can burn CD's and create your own special mix of your favorite songs to create CD's for that special someone, music to work out with or for a special holiday or anniversary.

Isaiah Henry is a guru in the music industry; he has written such reviews on Rhapsody review. Go to Any Music Downloads for unlimited download music.

Music Billboard features New Artists

New Music Billboard allows the public to listen to music for free from their favorite Indie Artist. Traditional Billboards cover mostly mainstream music, but New Music Billboards features new and up and coming Singers and Bands.

New Music Billboards features music that runs along side more mainstream or commercial music and has frequently used the term Indie music. Small labels or individuals marketing their own music often participate in the Indie Music scene. It is important to uncover unknown bands because there is so much music talent out there who simply lack ample marketing.

During the 1990s, Indie music became widespread and answered an increasingly larger market of people who were looking for alternatives to the mainstream music institutions. In the same way that "alternative" was used before it became an actual genre of mainstream music, Indie is sometimes used in place of "underground" as a term to describe music.

There are many places online where you can download Indie music for free. One of the better resources is our site at http://www.newmusicbillboard.com

Becoming involved in the Indie music scene typically, and sometimes still does, require one to move to a city or town where there's an active Indie music scene. Traditionally, hooking up with other artists and fans was a way to build your career as a new artist.

Seasoned musicians and new artists now have the opportunity to record and publish their music from the comfort of their own studio. Income can be made from building a fan base and by selling merchandise, concert tickets and traditional CDs.

Some Indie groups are now picked up by Indie record labels or even major record labels. A good resource to find Indie Music Labels is http://www.newmusiclabel.com

While Indie music is still considered off from mainstream music scene, it is a place where new artists can build a fan base and begin many of the marketing components that they are going to need to be success in the longer term.
