Ok so remember Eric's thread about cover videos?
I think it would be fun and educational if we would make "puzzles of the week", that is, one dude uploads a vid of him on utube or somewhere else playing a technical/good sounding/badassly written/insanely talented - lick or a riff.
It shouldnt then be very long, its good if its repetitive, and then everyone active here will make a vid / rec of him playing that stuff to a set tempo.
Doesn't have to be very technical, more like entertaining and educational.
The next week another dude records a riff / lick and others try to play it.
It shouldnt be all about tone, more technique. So if you have a wallmart 5$ Pc mic you will be good to go.
So what do you say? How many here are up for this?

I'd be up for that. Sounds fun. Should be videos, though. And we'll ramp up the difficulty as we go along, so those of us following it will have to work harder and improve.
Edit: We shouldn't make it a set tempo. We'll all just record it at the fastest we can play it cleanly. Sloppy fucks will be disqualified by popular vote.

I will start: Kinda easy riff with string skipping and drone note: played in triplets, and my guitar tuned down 2 full steps (you can use whatever tuning you want): And here is the vid: www.youtube.com/watch?v=FoY0NdGQTSw

YES ! Kev arp was dos as fuck sounds cool... but nothin special. I used to be good at it... Im warming up and practicing it again. I added a 6th to it for flavor..... thus why Im practicing. It used to be easy as hell to play.... guess my suck gauge went up. Going back in the studio and disecting this bitch. I promised a vid and I will deliver. Stef is the only one on here thats seen me play in person. Ive been on this board for shit.... 4 or 5 years now.............. bout time I stepped the fuck up. Host is gonna be a private photobucket account. I fuckin hate youtube.
