I'm very new to The Stick myself (I just got mine at the end of March) and so I have my hands... |

That was fun! I'm looking forward to the rest of the series. My only suggestion might be to use a headset mic', or maybe use a mic' positioned closer to your face, just for the sake of better vocal clarity. But that's not to say that what you have now is in any way bad! Keep 'em coming! |

Wow, he actually managed to take one of the most irritating tunes in history (to me) and make it cool.
Behold: the power of The Stick!

Ah, the lone sympathy post is from Brett! :lol: There are two drum-n-bass/breakbeat style loops panned apart. Samples galore, from Bowie, Rush, Styx, and Horowitz. I love Jim's piano solo, too. :) He was in a McCoy Tyner mood for this one. I should also mention that the bass on here is played by ano... |
