What is your problem? :evil: I only searched for the photos of Steve with it. I learned about the Ebow after my first OLP show with Steve in 2002 cause I was interested in what was hanging from his stand and asked? Plus I have friends who play in bands who I ask things about.

you know too bad I don't play guitar cause all the shows I was watching Steve and even Mike I could pick up the chords from watching them.

I feel love, I feel a power. It comes to me in the darkest hour. And I want to feel it again

Why? Do you think you are the only person on the face of the planet who knows how to read or repeat something they saw. You know I usually just ignore things, but you are really starting to piss me off with your attitude.

I know alot of people who play, and I always ask them things cause I wanted to play for the longest time.

I didn't say I would know ever chord, but trust me you watch someone do things enough times you can pick it up.

That is like you saying to someone who said I can recite a story cause I read it several times, then you say you doubt that.

You shouldn't be so quick to judge people.

playing an instrument is not at all like repeating a story.

Since Johnathan plays, he should know.

Goodbye you liar,
Well you sipped from the cup but you don't own up to anything
Then you think you will inspire
Take apart your head
(and I wish I could inspire)
Take apart your demons, then you add it to the list.

Johnathan is not the only person on the face of the planet who plays-so he shouldn't judge people. That is what is pissing me off. All I said is If I knew chords-from watching Mike and Steve play I could pick up some. I am a very good observer. Plus being smack in front of them watching doesn't hurt either. I always watch guitar players play when I am in the front row. Also I have friends who play guitar, drums, piano and sing.

obviously you guys have never watched anything and picked it up from watching a person.

How would you explain people learning to play from just listening to something?

So, you can honeslty say that you can remember every note and every chord used in every song?

I think the way some of these posts were written were kind of written the wrong way and may seem offensive, and have been taken out of context. Let's just end the convo now instead of arguing for no good reason. It won't lead to a positive outcome, so it's pointless.

this whole argument was based off whether or not Gail knew what an ebow was. People need to relax

I know what an elbow is and I have two of them.

I can't believe people argue over these kinds of things!

SHEESH! It's a freaking body part!!!
