Strings can cut your knuckles or the skin right next to the nail, especially if you're really banging on them. That hurts. And bleeds.

Thank you! Someone else bothered by that. If he's playing with a pick, that's not going to make your fingers bleed. Fretting hand maybe, but

You had tickets to an epic rock show and instead you stayed with your pregnant wife. Dave Grohl would buy you a beer, you know he would.

Wish he was less dismissive of electronic music. Yeah, it's not the same as physically playing something, but it still requires talent.

9 years ago | Likes 16 Dislikes 2

Iirc, he was playing w/ Deadmau5 around when he said that and later said electronic music has that same human element in its composition

9 years ago | Likes 5 Dislikes 0

I think he generalizes electronic music that is just finding samples and putting them together and calling it "original"

9 years ago | Likes 13 Dislikes 0

Yeah, but just like rock, the first YouTube searches for "mix" isn't exactly indicative of the entire genre lol

I've listened to a avant garde electronic music (as early as the 1930's) and it can be very complex when the proper thought is put into it
