I'm not dogging you at all. If I were in a bar and you got up and started singing PJ songs I would enjoy it because you do have a good cover voice.

i understand. when i play solo, i sound a lot like ed in some ways. most of the original stuff i work on is haeavy stuff like sepultura, slipknot, pantera...mainly because it relesaes more negative energy. i don't cover them. i write my own. i have one i need to post that i'm pretty proud of.

One thing I've noticed is that when you play out and there are 10 other performers, everybody goes out of their way to say nice things to everybody instead of saying nothing at all if they sucked. They encourage you. But here, you get a few that just like to put your shit down. But I'll bet lyrically, on a ballad type song, my song is better than any ballad daytimedilemma could put together. Put it on here and prove me wrong. If I'm wrong, I'll say I'm wrong. If not, then why the fucking hate. It's not like I fucked your mom.

Far from it my friend.

I picked it up too late. Been playing from 6 years. Very sporatically.

Wow. Get over yourself.

Explain coherently just what the fuck that means.

Who cares if you can sing or if people think you stink. Do what you do, and to hell with everything else. Don't mope about perceived slights. Get over yourself. It's not a contest.

See that's just it. Hear me out. I feel like the people that criticize you are too afraid to post their own shit. So that makes me wonder why bother criticizing something you can't beat. I'm sure they have bands and that's fine. I just want to hear the music (individually) of the people talking shit to see if I have a legitimate gripe or is this just message board pussy shit. It's actually pretty simple. If you're better, prove it. If not, leave the negativity at home. It all comes down to be being curious. There's nothing wrong with that is there?I think my offer was pretty simple. Accept it or not. But if you don't show us what you got, then why be a pussy and say something sucks if you can't back it.

Get over yourself is an overused term that has no meaning. If you're that much better, show me. That's all. You, a guitar, and your voice. Simple as that.

Something tangible ends all debates.

See where I coming from?

Wow. Who cares? I'm just drunk and laughing at it all. Get a guitar? Get a clue. Be your best you (OK, I think I just gagged when I wrote that). Is there really some sort of band war going on here? Worst. Fight. Ever. Notice how those are one-word sentences. That makes each word seem more important.

You didn't play sports past the high school level did you? If at all. It's all about competition. I thrive on it. I do it in business too. I don't like to be told somebody's better. I want to be shown. This isn't a fight. It's a open contest. A fight would be my ape like knuckles draggin across the face of a smart ass pussy boy who think Wolfmother is better than Black Sabbath or whatever.

This doesn't really involve you anyway. Either post your shit or bow out. There's no band war going on here. I just like logging on here and making jokes and having peace...not having to deal with 10 different sissies who are so insecure in their own skin that they can't show us what they've got. Wouldn't that make for an interesting thread? I thought so. So why fuck with it. Drink 3 more and pass out.

I had no idea Bronson Arroyo posted on the PJ board. Did you really just bring up prep sports, Bronson? Two to go and I pass out.

I did because I figured you didn't play college ball and I know goddamn well you didn't play pro.

You give up too easy. You don't know how to compete. Simple as that. I doubt you played high school ball.

Hi Cory,

I usually post in the musicians forum and i don't recall seeing any of your work there. I try to check most things but i may have missed it. Do you ever post your tunes in that forum? The people are really cool and very appreciative of other peoples work, and the only criticism is constructive. They are good people. You should post some of your things there because there may be some like me who don't wander over in here too often. (and that's for no other reason than there are always too many god damn posts to read! , you folks are good people too! )

Don't worry about people being nasty. Some people just can't help themselves. I'm a musician and i'm happy with what i put out there. I'm don't want to be in competition with anyone else nor do i look to be, because what i play, i play for me. I don't play to make other people happy. I do it to make me happy. Music shouldn't be about making other people happy. If you are feeling it and it's feeling good with you, then that's all that matters.

Stay proud of your work and don't worry about the negativity. Who cares what they think.

I appreciate that. And for the most part, the feedback has been awesome. I think the guitar "virtuosos" are the ones I have faults with. They're obviously taking some of their own shortcomings out on people like me who play live once every 6 months for about 20 minutes. I'm just sharing what I did. I'm not looking for a Grammy. But I'm also not looking for a dude in his early 30's who's never gonna be shit to tell me I'm not shit. But you're right, I don't play for them anyway so fuck 'em. Thanks for the kind words.

Basketball? Football? Baseball? What kind of ball are you talking about? And what does that have to do with playing competitive guitar? And what does that have to do with anything, anyway? You can do this; I can do that; we can both agree that American Idol lets too many people think they're talented. No Pit-on-Pit crime!

I'm offering you a competition and you're continually sidestepping it. Either post your shit if you're competitive or don't and prove my theory.

We'll do the same song.

What'll it be?

There's your fucking competition.

cory

I'll wait for your answer in the morning. I'm gonna try to go to sleep.

Hope to hear from you.

I warn you, my voice is panty throwing worthy;)
