Yep, but that video cutout is not actually the music that's playing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members bonscottvocals Posted August 21, 2006 Members Share Posted August 21, 2006 I use 2. I first heard "Iron Maiden" around 1980, I was big into Rush. Harris really didn't stand out until "Number of the Beast", and when I heard the title track, that was it for me. I sat down and learned how to sing and play it. It wasn't until later that I found out that Harris was also a major lyricist in the group. After having played Priest, AC/DC, Scorpions, Van Halen, and Sabbath, the driving bass lines, changing time signatures and blazing licks were the prog of metal for me. At first, I used a pick, but I sat and used 2 fingers at slower speed until I could play at full speed. If anyone asks me about how to get faster, I tell them that the only real way to get there is to start slowly. Just because you can't run a 5 min mile today doesn't mean that you can't run it. If you run every day, you'll get faster - that's it. Do your best now and you'll get better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
