http://www.guitargrimoire.com/ theres a couple different editions of this book: The Guitar Grimoire - Scales and Modes The Guitar Grimoire - Chords and Voicings The Guitar Grimoire - Progressions and Improvisation The Guitar Grimoire - Chord Encyclopedia The Guitar Grimoire - A Notated Intervallic Study of Scales The Guitar Grimoire - The Exercise Book The Guitar Grimoire - The Fingerpicking Book The Guitar Grimoire - The Rhythm Guitar Book

bar chords are probably the easiest chords next to open ones. once you start getting into more complex voicings of chords like inverted chords and jazz chords... that shit will make you want to break your fingers just so they go in the proper fret. yeah, knowing basic chords and what goes well together is cool, but music theory itself is what opens up new doors. for instance, playing a diminished 2nd or a tritone by themselves sound gross. but implementing them in a chord will bring so much color into your playing. if you only rely on your ear to get you by, chromatics will never sound good to you. learn as many scales and modes as you can.

Periphery's self titled instrumental edition.

fart mic.

penises.

so DGD, had to cancel their show in vegas because the venue couldn't afford all the bands' guarantees. my friend sergio who is filling in for hail the sun on the tour got word of this and but together a last minute show in less than 24 hours. the line up was as follows Oranges (my band): http://orangesmusic.bandcamp.com/ Amarionette: http://amarionette.bandcamp.com/ Alaska:http://alaskanv.bandcamp.com/ and the supporting bands from the tour hail the sun and a lot like birds. i had a ethan moment with joe the drummer from a lot like birds. we talked drums the whole time pretty much. it was great. i will post videos. i am uploading them now.
