He immediately came in, and I credit Marv with the chorus and starting to tie together the storyline. He came in and started developing what came from me sitting on my porch hungover.
We weren't worried about boundaries at that point in time. We were able to write it however we wanted to write it. It really freed us up and allowed the process to really start flowing. It kind of brings you in before it starts punching.
It starts out kind of soft and swampy, then by the time you get to the chorus, it's hammering you pretty good. Then it kind of creeps out that way. I like the way, not only is the title 'Creepin',' but it does actually creep in and creep out. I always would prefer to see and hear a banjo being played in one of the more traditional ways, but to keep yourself from good music just because of the style of the banjo work or how many strings it has seems like a situation where you could sell yourself short.
This is supposed to be a progressive song. SH September 18, pm. September 25, pm. Thanks for posting the video of Eric Church playing this song live the song sucks by the way.
Now if his banjo is tuned like a guitar, and most 6-string banjo players do tune them that way, he seems to be playing a D chord most of the time and sometimes a G. So how does he do it? My guess is that one of his backup musicians goes backstage and watches the song on a screen, only playing when Eric actually puts his hands back on the banjo. Jukebox September 18, pm. Certainly not anyone who has ever picked up an instrument before. The fact it has 1 more string?
It has 3 less strings and a heck of a lot less frets. It is no less or more difficult to learn than a 6 string guitar.
Master squareneck Dobro player Mike Auldridge found that playing the 8 string Dobro was much easier than playing a 6. You know that 10, hour expert rule? The rule is 10, for anything, period. Gotta love fake expertise. BCM, I would disagree with you here. As with anything it depends how intricate you are with your style and how good your are at it. As a banjo player, I have always held 6 string varieties in contempt.
About 2 years ago I wanted a guitar sound without having to learn guitar so I thought that perhaps I should just string a guitar differently.
I was committing the sin I hated. Those guys made those 6 strings wail and I was completely astounded and had a new respect for people who mastered that instrument and treated it as its own instrument.
A guy I admire so much talks directly about this. And many of his followers are completely blind to all of this. BCM September 19, am. Bigfoot is Real seriously September 19, am. Please know it involves swapping the low E, A, D, and G wound strings for lighter gauge strings and tuning them an octave higher so check the Google machine for complete details and gauges yes I am guilty of doing research. It seems like that would do the trick in making it sound less like a lackadaisical hybrid instrument and give it the twang it needs.
But I doubt Eric Church puts his in a special tuning or uses light gauge strings. Gatorhawk September 17, pm. Trophy Bulls September 17, pm. Do grown-ups actually watch music videos?
Also, the reviewer makes a good point about rock not being a knock on a country song. To your comment yes adults watch music videos. I feel they can be good and bad. Sometimes by using visual images they can really portray the message or explain the story further than what the song itself can do.
Sometimes they can just be silly fun videos that stimulate. I can see where they can be bad as well, because those who are musicians nitpick everything they do, even though most times when videos are made no one is actually singing or playing only mimicking in order to get editing correct.
I agree with you. The Triggerman September 19, am. This is the thing about videos: Like them or not they are positively essential these days to promoting music, more essential then they have ever been. Everyone wants to embrace Shooter Jennings as the new savior of country music, but look at the filth that is his last video with Bucky Covington. Now, couple that with the theory that when folks want to discover music, the first thing they do is go to YouTube.
And what sort of impression do you think those people are going to walk away with? Tim September 26, am. Or are you just not a Shooter fan anyway, shape or form. Eric Church might be cutting a few good tunes, but lets not forget he tries to compare his career to Hank Sr.
The Triggerman September 26, am. Shooter is no underground artist, and never has been. And the fact that he is trying to pass himself off as such, and others are attempting to parade him around as such, is at the core of the reason he is dividing the underground and causing general dissension amongst its ranks. Tim September 27, am. Your the one parading him around as an alleged country music savior and you keep bringing up the fucking underground thing.
Jesus man?!!?!?! He even promotes some mainstream acts oh god, hang him for that. What thershold of financial success is underground and what is mainstream?
What record label is to big for artist to be with to be considered underground? Do you have to wear certain clothes to be underground? Seems to me you get pissed off when anyone but you gets some credit for promoting bands like Hank3 Hellbound Glory Whitey Morgan Jason Eady to name a few, because you think somehow you shined on a light on them first? Ego man, ego…check it. The Triggerman September 27, am. Creepin' song meanings.
