This is my old band. We were the worst band ever. I don't fault anybody who listens to these songs for 10 seconds each then turns them off in disgust, because I don't think it's very good at all either. However, all these songs are our own material. We wrote them from scratch. Challenge accepted, ball's in your court. Post an actual song you wrote, nobody cares how lovely it is. Just post something original that you made.

Woah. No comment.

I don't think it's lovely, but of course you all will.

It's called Everyman and I wrote it in 1994 but this is the latest version I recorded, sometime in 2003. I did this whole recording myself, using the home-made Strat-style and my lovely old Cort bass. The drums are from an old Roldand DR-5 and the vocals are all me. It was meant to be a kinda heavy King's X style blues:

Well, the guy makes his living by selling "USA MADE" or whatever so you can't expect him to actually admit that a Mexican Strat or an asian Epiphone sounds as good and plays as well as the USA counterpart that costs 3 times as much.

He's appealing to the guitar snob demographic which has a lot of money to blow on guitars.

They fell off pretty hard after becoming guitar hero famous, I'll admit I used to listen to them but Power Metal just doesn't do it for me anymore.

It's cool, GBS poster Valtaherra. I know how scary it is to bare your music to a hostile audience. If you were proud of your music, you'd probably let us hear it, but since it's locked away, I assume it sucks worse than my best efforts. What other conclusion could we draw?

there are several things to consider when deciding whether you should use wood or metal to construct your shelves, and the first is where they are going to go and what they are going to hold. wood can hold a great deal of weight as opposed to it's material weight, but stainless steel can hold even more. stainless steel is also immune to many problems that plagues wood such as rotting and mildewing. These last two problems can be stopped in wood with the use of preventative chemicals that are applied to the product. one thing is certain though, since wood is organic, it will lose strength and integrity as time progresses.

also if faustus wants to chime in with his thoughts please do :)

It's refreshing to finally have someone in the thread who takes his craft seriously. Recently I installed a couple of "floating" shelves in my home. They're a low grade wood, but they're well covered in a heavy laminate which gives them a clean look, and provides adequate friction to prevent objects from sliding off.

The problem is that they aren't sturdy enough to hold all the fat stacks of cash that still roll in from my old record company from time to time. I need something deeper and with more support than a drywall anchor kit can provide. Also maybe some cargo netting mounted beneath to catch the inevitable spillage would be good. Any ideas?
