Life on The Brightside with The Killers

Most of you probably know that I love The Killers. I find myself listening to their songs every day…for the past 2 years I would say. There is just a special connection & energy with them or something.

 

The Killers

Does anyone else have a band that you feel this way about? I’m talking about admitting that you think about it way too much… I remember switching back n’ forth between Jay Leno and David Letterman one night on TV, and I saw the Killers perform “Somebody Told Me” on Letterman. By the way, I never watch any bands or singers perform, mostly because I don’t care, or if I do catch a glimpse I don’t like their music. But I saw them perform and that song is so catchy. I was hooked. The music and the look just reeled me in. Plus some say I kind of look like Brandon (lead singer) - maybe a little , but I’m honored :lol: He pretty much is just like me. I’ve seen him in person (within 20 feet) two times, but didn’t get a chance to talk with him (I did talk at him lol). It’s like he is a small guy who is typically very quiet but he can light up on stage and become unattainable. He actually is about 2 inches shorter than me. I like that he doesn’t talk much on stage, and rarely off either, but I do enjoy the quick interview I can find on youtube so I can see what he thinks. Again, I find a connection there.

What Do the Readers Want?

IdeaHey everyone - Ryan here…I’ve got a few articles coming along that will help many people. One of which is a video showing how I record my keyboard audio through my computer with great quality. That is how I make my piano mp3 files. I will show you how to do it, and you may only need a couple of materials that cost less than $10. I think videos are sometimes better than words so I’ll show many lessons with my keyboard rather than writing about it. Read the rest of this entry »

I think I need to work on this one myself. :lol: To learn about these different chords, I will have a video post showing examples of all of these below. You can then practice playing them yourself to get a feel for it; then try this game below!

Piano Mp3 of Ice Box by Omarion as seen on Youtube

This is the exact recording that was on youtube, so it includes my improvising. Also, the recording on youtube was slowed down by 2 seconds to match up with the video, but this is the uneditied version so it doesn’t sound dreamy like it did on youtube…hope that makes sense. Enjoy.
