Doing the Wrong Thing and a little solo

virgult — Thu, 09 Jul 2009 14:30:15 GMT

Hi guys! It's nice to see that there is an unofficial Kaki King forum made by fans and enthusiasts alike. I'd like to share with you a couple of videos I recently made. Any kind of comments will be really appreciated! I'm sorry if you think this is just spam... if so, I'm ready to remove this stuff from the forum. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iBW750DR8ps This is my cover of Kaki King's Doing the Wrong Thing. I know it's not very precise (I'm still learning fingerpicking) but I'd be glad ...

The Dresden Dolls/Amanda Palmer

plunk666 — Mon, 16 Feb 2009 14:40:02 GMT

Okey, I've been meaning to do this for a long time but because we've been kinda talking about Amanda Palmer on another segment on this forum I never posted this, so here it finally is. The Dresden Dolls are an Punk-Cabaret group, the singer is Amanda Palmer. She just released her first solo record, it's called Who killed Amanda Palmer. I've seen her 4 times in 4 different country's and every time she blew me away. For people who haven't heard/listend to the dresden dolls yet I would ...

TOP five. BOTTOM five

.jamesAdmin — Tue, 06 May 2008 02:00:07 GMT

Every artist has those few songs where you just skip when they come on, so what are your top five you like to listened to, and your bottom five that u may even like, you just dont go out of your way to listen. (must be on an album or an albums bonus track) Here I Go: Top: Air and Kilometers Joi I Need a Girl Who Knows a Map Soft Shoulder Lies Bottom: Frame The ...

How i see "Junior"

Mythbuster9 — Fri, 26 Mar 2010 00:58:28 GMT

I hated it at first, i could not believe it was KAKI KING, my mind was not used to the idea of listening that genre while knowing it was her. I know artists and their style evolve but still i didn't quite like it. But then as i was listening to it while driving (as i hear most of the music i'm interested at the moment) what i think was kaki's intention with the CD it struck me: it is in fact a movie less soundtrack to a Bourne-esque type of movie, i could feel the characters in "The ...

Junior Layout

amanda.went.away — Thu, 08 Apr 2010 14:07:13 GMT

Hey guys, working on the Junior layout now. There are a lot of new changes which you guys can already see. If you guys have suggestions this is the place to talk about it! Also, Jorge is agreeing to help with the banner. If you guys also have ideas for the banner these are the specs: -Must be 800x200 px -Stay within the Junior idea. I'll post back here once I'm completely done with changing the layout. -Probably going to change the menu buttons again.

Adamas announces official Kaki King signature model guitar!

FlySig — Thu, 26 Nov 2009 20:18:56 GMT

The top Adamas dealer is Al Pepiak, of Lostartvintage dot com. I have no relationship to him other than having purchased several guitars from him. He's well known amongst Ovation and Adamas fans as having the best prices and the best customer service, bar none. From his post on the Ovationfanclub dot com forum yesterday: " It's official there will be a new signature series Adamas and it is the Kaki King model. similar to her's with the same sound holes single epaulet and shade ...

The Fillmore (SF) 5/21/10

VideoKid — Sat, 22 May 2010 17:25:24 GMT

WOW! This was one of the best shows I have ever seen. I am a fairly new fan and didn't know all the songs that were played. I was wondering if anyone who attended knew the song that made Kaki cry. It was such a beautiful song and I can't seem to find it. It was all instrumental and she played it right before Goby. The crowd literally cheered for minutes after she played the song. If anyone can help that would be so awesome. Also does anyone know where a setlist can be found of this show? Setlist.com ...

A Constructively Critical View of Kaki's New Lineup

josephzacker — Fri, 14 May 2010 23:21:44 GMT

So, I caught Kaki when she came to Colorado for 2 nights (one in Boulder, one in Denver). I just wanted to get some feedback on what I thought... First of all, why no bass? I chatted with Dan after the Boulder show, and he mentioned he's using Apple MainStage to do bass tracks and a few other things, on a loop, so basically, they're playing along to the computer. Not necessarily a bad thing, but in my opinion, Jordan seems to get kind of isolated holding down the low end without a live ...

Within The Blossom

josephzacker — Sat, 15 May 2010 11:20:12 GMT

How can I determine the depths, to know the self that is inseparable, yet not my own? At the epicenter of this chaotic soul-searching, I know only this; I will not sacrifice even such a paradoxical aspect, even if it means denying the masses what they desire. It means the future is written, yet unknown. It means that I cannot offer a placebo. It means that our wayward stewards will tighten their grip in madness. Be as sand; slip through their fingers, as the notes we offer to that which ...

How do you record your music?

humpmastajoe — Mon, 08 Feb 2010 14:54:22 GMT

Hey what's up everyone? I would really like to record some music and put it up on youtube, but I don't have a camera. I don't really care if I have a video, I just want to get the audio. Does anyone know what kind of equpiment I would need or can anyone think of an inexpensive way to do this that will also produce good sound quality? I'd appreciate any help I can get. thanks.

Well...There are lots of us out there, who either are guitarists or play other instruments. I realized that we don't have a topic specialized in questions related to music theory, harmony, instrument playing and technical support, and I decided to start this topic. I'll be more than happy to share my thoughts and tips with you and I'd loooove to participate in all kinds of conversations. So, c'mon people, give it a shot

Nails&guitar

_Untitled_ — Mon, 08 Feb 2010 22:49:09 GMT

Hi everyone! I hope this is the right section to post this topic.
Do you use your own nails to play fingerpicking style? If so, how do you "take care" of them? I mean, using particular kind of nail polish or things like that..
My nails are sooooo weak, and they easly get damaged.
Suggestions?
