on my playing skills. You folks realize that I'm not a musician. I don't get around with my buddies and jam for hours. I don't write songs everyday. Fuck, I've never had a lesson. Then I get this shit "Post some more of your lame ass 3 chord songs" and all that shit which is hilarious because most of your great songs are just that. 3 or 4 chord songs that move people. Look, I suck on guitar. But, I can probably sing better than most of you. youtube it and prove me wrong. I'll do the same. But I'm sick of the guys who have great skill on the guitar but couldn't sing a corpse to sleep. Stop hating bitches. You don't like what I post, post something better. Maybe we should have a board contest of who can sing and playing Whipping, Betterman, Indifference, TYAAM, Master of War, original stuff, or whatever. I'm game. I'm not embarrassed to post some shit on here. And then the people can judge. I'm game. Just let me know. I'd like to put all the smart assed comments to rest. I challenge you all and am willing to accept defeat in grace.

cory sounds like an insecure frat boy beating his chest about how much better he is than everyone else and crying when someone disagrees. Do you really need people to stroke your ego that bad? Yawn. :rolleyes:

bottom line is - once you have decided to release your work in a public forum, you are inviting ANYONE and EVERYONE to critique it. Some may be qualified to judge, some may not be. But everyone has an opinion, and if you are not prepared to take the good with the bad (regardless of whether you feel someone is worthy enough of judging you), then perhaps you shouldn't post your work until you can comfortably decipher qualified critical comments from people just wanting to troll you.

all of that thought that went into your post, yet you forgot one thing.....your fucking clip. all i'm saying is criticize all you'd like but let's hear the talent of the criticizers. i think that's pretty fair. go ahead....we're all ears.

indeed.
and since when must one actually BE a musician, an artist, a film director, a chef, etc...before they are allowed to offer an opinion and/or critique? it seems if the critique is all good/positive/glowing....that's a-ok, but to offer any negative feedback is a no-no? opinions are just that, opinions. now, there are more educated/informed opinions....people who 'know/understand/practice' a particular thing, and then there are those who know much without actually participating, but listen/read/learn/appreciate...so thus have a lot of knowledge. and sure, those who know jack shite but enjoy spouting off none the less. one should learn to differentiate such, and take such comments accordingly. ANYthing one puts out there....ANY one is free to comment, good or bad...learned or ignorant comments.......such is life!

Rhinocerous Surprise

Quick, innocent question: before starting to play guitar 6 years ago, would Cory have been shy about expressing an opinion about someone's music?

Ok fine, you want a competition? You got one.

Pit people, you be the judge.

i am.
what exactly about my post makes you think otherwise?
especially since i mention my HUSBAND in my post here? hahahaha.
but more importantly...i honeslty do not get the importance of someone's gender here for conversation? here's a thought...i remember on RM, some guy posed as a girl...for about a year! hahaha. and good on that really. so many people are not 'real' here, truly themselves....they 'play a character' so what difference does what gender they are mean, unless you're flirting of course.


anyhoooooooo...totally off topic. mea culpa. point is, as a musician, an artist....the only 'opinions' that should matter are those of your fellow musicians, whom you respect...who can help you grow/improve...offer honest assement and constructive criticism. the rest, let'sd face it...all in fun and feels good to be told how 'great' you are...and may sting a bit if someone says 'you suck'....but unless from someone you care about and/or respect...really doesn't matter in the least. and as i've said, i am no musician, but an artist....and after grad school, you just learn to toughen up and learn/accept the good and the bad critiques. it's how we grow/learn/improve.

sorry about that!

damn, missed the post that mentioned your husband....

you dont need to do this? why bother.... lift middle finger and extend it to them.

Eddie gets called shit all the time on youtube but i doubt he could give one fuck about it.. and neither should you.. if you post on youtube then some idiot is gonna bash you.. its the nature of the game.. play a small gig in their hometown and i bet they wouldnt say a word to you... the internet makes men of mice.. i like that phrase and i must use it in conversation more often.

for what its worth, i thought your voice was really really good

well said dunkula......btw, how's the head today (well tonight for you)? :D

chadwick

i personally won't be voting on who's the better guitarist/singer.
wouldn't it be just funny as hell if nobody gave an opinion on who's
the better musician?

it actually is quite ridiculous.
as artists/musicians shouldn't you folks support each others talents?
constructive criticism is always welcomed.
arguing and whatnot like school children is pritty fuckin weak.

their is something else going on behind the guitar/singing scenes here.
i suspect attitudes have been clashing for awhile now.
