    The Blues

    I think that was Steve Vai Cpl Ledanek, but no quotation marks please :P, they are both equally good

    I used to get goose bumps from that last scene and even taped it.

    Speaking of goose bumps and loosely tied to the subject, anyone else get that little surge listening to a piece that just grabs you or should I keep up with the medicatioin? :unsure:

    The Blues

    I'm just starting to learn the basics of playing the blues. Although I haven't heard a lot of the genre your referring to it has to be the the most emotional form IMHO. I've touched on some bluessgrass that to me is a little happier when you play it. The very basic pieces I'm playing generally follow the standard 12 bar blues structure, but there are so many variances. This is also the best type to jam to. Pick your lick and let someone play over the top and who knows what can happen(ability withstanding)

    @Sgt. Croc. that film is O Brother Where Art Thou by the Coen Brothers, and that had one of the best movie soundtracks I've heard.

    Eyes Of the Eagle

    I finished this book about two weeks ago and promptly ordered Eyes Behind The Lines (may not be the actual title) on Amazon (and Marine Sniper while I was at it)

    I've not read any more emotional book based on fact.

    Basically the first book involves the diary style recollections of Gary Linderer attached to F Company ??? 101st Division(apologies for not relaying the full details but 56th comes to mind) in the first half of his tour in 1968 as an LRRP.

    I realise that Vietnam is a sore point for a lot of people and I have my own views ( as best a 31yo Australian with a non service history can), but this places a lot of perspective on what it was like to be part of a war that wasn't fully supported by those at home. THe fact that he was part of the 101st is icing on the cake.

    Linderer for all intents and purposes is a natural writer and putting this to paper seems to ease the ghosts he carries from the past. The first pages from the 2nd book howver are written in a different style and I'm not sure if I like this or not.

    I guess that I should also apologise if this book has been discussed before.

    Well to say I'm surprised that no-one has read this is an understatement. You should.

    Resolution

    1600*1200*32 and have done for some time. I'm now used to leaning forward and really scanning the terrain for any non-conformity. Although after about 4 hours of this my eyes are stinging. My monitor will handle this resolution @ 85Hz which helps things.

    Frostbite Help

    in GR (PC) - General Discussion

    The 6th mission in Frostbite whose name elludes me has me stumped. I have spent over two hours searching for the intel with no luck. I have the Russian officer in tow and all I need is this bloody intel.

    I don't normally resort to asking for help but I have faith enough in my own ability to know when I'm beat :wall:

    Of course I may not have the correct mission number above, but it's after Blue Ghost and has the castle and the bunkers which have to be knocked out first.

    I love this mod enough to leave it and let it go and if it comes back...
