13 minute Shotgun on piano

About halfway through I put in some of my own stuff... I may have gotten a bit carried away with the time.

Either way... I hope I didn't ruin the song for anyone!

Hey Pez, nice work, as always. Always good to hear a fellow pianist on this board that, for some bizarre reason, has been overrun by guitarists. :lol:

*raises hand* Guilty. I also play guitar. DAMMIT!!! :thumbsup:

Can I pay you to come play for me when I'm working on a paper or something, lol. Great, I loved it, you have a gift for just being able to go so many places with songs and not sound like crap. The only thing I would change that I didn't like was the beginning were you started out and would totaly pause for a second. I would pause real hard on the high notes, but on the bass ones I would keep them going. Once you started going with it it sounded great though. I know you were trying to pause like dave did, but I still think you need something to carry in the background. Didn't sound bad the way you did it, I just would of liked it to carry more.

Dave pauses too? I didn't know that... when I record these I just sit down and play whatever... nothing's planned in advance.

But thanks for the critique!

I don't know how to explaine that part so I'll just pull up the guitar tab quick...

Capo 5

D---------------------------2------------------------3--3--

E----------------------------------------------------------

after each time he plays the 3 0 1 2 0 1 part he pauses right before hitting an actual chord. Do you know what I'm talking about now? lol it's so annoying trying to talk about stuff like this when you are not face to face...
