Does anyone have any details on Avengeds first show? I take it that that was before Syn even joined?

Right?! @Brian Haner Sr. Can play guitar behind his head. Haven't seen Syn do that yetNot the best guitarist in the family? Come on, Papa, that outro solo on Sidewinder though!Just kidding. But I gotta cover that! I think the problem with music is that it's hard to express it in words, the English language isn't really suited for that sort of thing, it's like explaining the a feeling, hope that makes sense. That's why guys like talking about music/bands in general. I couldn't explain what it is I'm doing on the guitar, all I know is what I like and don't. I mean, if you listen to early A7X, Matt's vocals sound very different to what they do now, that was all about what you said, become what you want to become!
All access. Apparently the band got chirped hard and Matt for into a fight and they got banned for a few years.
Beginner here....I’ve found we don’t get much love in the riffs section. I know personally, I tend to put a disclaimer that I’m a beginner in the title so if someone doesn’t want to want me bomb, I save them a click
hmmm...maybe I need to stop doing that lmao
Let's also not forget those that only post to the riff page and make zero contributions to the forums. This actually annoys me more as these guys are all solid players, who I have no doubt could provide valuable insight on the forums, but only seem to be here for views.

I quite seriously could not agree with you more. On the 1st rendition of the school, there were so many advanced players that I would write comments on their videos and say "you know there's about 200 students that have been posting needing help on the forums and you could really help them out right now." I agree with you. Most of them just seem to be doing it for views and to show off

Yes! You don't need to explain yourself to anyone.

The funny thing about these guys that think they are amazing by doing mindless shredding on the riff page is that Dave Gilmour could destroy all of them with a single bend.
I don't mind see people posting videos of them practicing sweeps at high speed. But if you can play that fast to nothing.. that's kinda fun.
But how does it sound behind a chord progression. Playing scales fast and mindless is fine. I wanna see how you change the scales up to fit the chords. And for more then the 30 seconds or minute Instagram allows.
I'm not impressed really with mindless shredding of sweeps, it kind of reminds me of the whole Steve Morse vs Ritchie Blackmore debate. Steve Morse, from a technical point, there probably isn't anything on the guitar he can't do. But when I hear sweeps I think, well, that's all well and good, but all that tells me is that you practiced the shit out of the guitar, running up and down a scale. After a few minutes of listening to that I start thinking about football actually.

One of the reasons many may not be posting may be the content licence rules.
"You are granting us with a non-exclusive, permanent, irrevocable, unlimited license to use, publish, or re-publish your Content in connection with the Service. You retain copyright over the Content."
So far I've only seen Syn share IG posts on his own IG, nothing else seems to happen with it. The rules are basic. but I can imagine It may hold beginners back.

It's from the all excess dvd. The all exces dvd and the making of the self titled DVDs have some of my favourite clips of Jimmy and Syn, I used to watch those a lot when I felt a little crappyOMFG I have never seen this clip before!!
