Metallica is perhaps one of the best known metal bands around.
In May of 1951, Lars and James made their first introductions.
This meeting was shortly followed by the formation of Metallica
just five months later.
On April 23rd of 1982 Metallica appeared as a 5 piece band with
Brad Parker on the guitar. After that, Metallica really began to
take off.
The man who needs no introduction, Cliff Burton (or just incase
you've been living on another planet, probably the best bassist
ever!) then had his first rehearsal with Metallica in 1982.
At this point Metallica really began to develop as a band and
their popularity sky rocketed. In 1983 their growing popularity
encouraged their decision (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Five Fingers Same Position Notes Reading Method |
| |
|
There are beginner piano books begin by introducing five notes
i.e. CDEFG in right hand (RH) and CBAGF in left (LH) by using
the same fingers position such as on RH note C played by thumb,
D played by index finger, etc. On LH note C played by thumb, B
played by index finger, so on. I called as "five fingers same
position".
The benefit is before added the new note, beginners have
practiced some similar exercises so they, especially kids will
not confused by rhythm, names and positions of notes.
Because of many exercises that using the same fingers position,
mostly kids tend to read the fingers numbers as notes positions.
For instance, they mean no. 1 on RH is C - always played by

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Darrel Andrews Releases New Album Spider Soul
Shreveport, LA --November 14, 2005-- Darrel Andrews began
his lifelong musical journey in Louisiana playing the Trumpet.
When Andrews was in school music was not a part of the
curriculum and there was no band room so he often found himself
outside with other band members practicing under an oak tree.
That kind of determination and perseverance would pay dividends
in the years to come.
During the 70's, the late great Ray Charles sponsored a
recording session of seven of Andrews' tunes, and two tunes were
recorded by Bobby "Blue" Bland. There would be many more
defining moments in the career of Darrel Andrews and fa (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Things to look for when buying a studio microphone |
| |
|
Studio microphones need to accomplish one thing and one thing
only: to record the best possible voice or musical instrument
sounds. In order to do that, they use advanced technological
methods to filter out unwanted ambient sound, which are present
even in a controlled studio environment. Studio microphones have
to capture the smallest voice subtleties and even the lowest
musical notes. Most studio microphones use the electret model,
in which a thin metal diaphragm receives sound waves and
converts them into electrical current, which can then be
interpreted by various recording devices. The filters used in
the manufacturing of professional studio microphones are well
calibrated, so that any (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Be A Prepared Church Pianist |
| |
|
Playing in front of a congregation each Sunday is no easy feat.
Make sure you are well prepared before giving your best for God
and before others.
1) Practice the piano and more preferably the songs you will be
playing early in the week and often.
2) Sing while you play so you can have a feel for how well your
playing will mesh with the singing.
3) If you use sheet music make sure it is organized and ready to
go. Write up your introductions and endings or make sure the
ones you have used before are the ones you will want to use this
time.
4) If you are accompanying a soloist make sure you set aside
good time to practice.
5) If you are still working on your craft then make sure you are (read full article) |

| Article Title :: What is a church musician |
| |
|
What is a church musician? After being in this position for
several years I have come to my own conclusions as to what this
title means and is all about. First let me say that I think a
lot of church musicians make the mistake of using this as a
means satisfy their own needs. A need to be up front, to
perform, to show off their musical talent etc. But being a
Christian is all about sacrificing self. This does not have to
be a negative thing and in fact can be quite rewarding.
Let's look at some scripture about this. In the Bible we are
commanded to "Sing unto him a new song; play skilfully with a
loud noise." Psalm 33:3 KJV. In first Samuel we see what a
musician can do for a man tormente (read full article) |

| Article Title :: Band Web Sites |
| |
|
Every band should have its own web site! There are very
inexpensive ways to build them. In fact, some are totally free!!
In my opinion, the best solution is the $0 hosting plan from Doteasy.com! They charge
$25/year to renew your domain name and $0/year for basic
hosting. This means that for the total cost of $25/year, you can
have a stand-alone web site with your own URL. You get 100 MB of
storage space, 1 GB of bandwidth each month, and 10 Email
addresses using your chosen URL. This package will NOT handle
PHP, MSQL, and other more sophisticated functions, but for a
basic web site, you can't beat the price! Doteasy.com is the company that
we use for all of our websites.

I recently started watching the Pink Panther movie series ever
since I purchased the whole set on DVD. I figured I was really
into that whole swinging sixties sound popularized by Henry
Mancini as he was responsible for composing the Pink Panther
films as well as many others. I thought the best way to see more
of it was to watch some of Blake Edwards best films including
the original Pink Panther and The Party which is one of my
favorites. After watching the films I figured I'd make a
playlist to listen to once in a while when I want to hear that
sound of a fun bygone era.
I start out the playlist with It Had Better Be Tonight the vocal
version from the Pink Panther Soundtrack. I just lov (read full article) |
