Monday Morning Piano Moment: My Chemical Romance - Cancer

This is a great song with a great message. I am glad that My Chemical Romance wrote a song like this. It is a nice departure from some of their other music (which I also like). Their live shows are apparently very good. They have a distinct image that brands them (hence the face-paint in this video).

Breaking the Girl [Red Hot Chili Peppers] - Tristan Clopet

Love this song! It is one of the fewer-played RHCP songs. This version does justice to an under-appreciated song. Thanks for sharing Tristan. Oh, for more info about this artist, www.tristanclopet.com

Guitar Thrill Thursday: 38 Years Old - The Tragically Hip

One of the most popular bands in Canada, The Tragically Hip has proven to be an awesome force in my appreciation of rock music. They are underappreciated in the U.S. Hopefully, a taste of this song will help you all get to know them. Guitarist Rob Baker has an original style that makes my fingers feel like feathers in a funnel. Anyway, enjoy the solo at the end of this song. He uses a slide for the whole thing and plays a PRS—a winner in my book.
