how many rad guitar solos does J.Mascis pop on average per day?
 
a quick calculation leaves me with an average (over the course of a year) of 62.5

any raise on that?

also I just figured out that 50 cent is the sylvester stallone of rap, get rich or die tryin being his Rocky and the massacre being rambo, doesn't bode well for fiddy.

he will do more than that, but some won't be released and some will suck.

therealglenstyler 06.29.2007 08:43 AM

yeah I didn't include any fluffed or just average solos in my workings out, just rad.

say two point five solos per song (average)
a touring repertoire of twenty/twenty-five songs of which twenty two might be played on any given day.
if soundcheck = three total songs (gross)
and you accept that a touring day represents a useful 'mean' day for J. and represents a rough mid-point between say a rehearsal day when he might pop many more solos than average and a day when he pops no solos at all (assuming there is such a thing).

then i believe that comes to 62.5 solos a day.

can anybody corroborate this?

How many guitar solos does it take to make J Mascis pick up his guitar? None, he just has to think about having a wank.

ah ah ah !!!
I really imagine him thinking about a wank while doing a guitar solo...
 
Ahhhh... that's gooood...

does he have a daughter named Samara?

i don't really understand what makes a "good" guitar solo? i mean, maybe i do... when i listen to necrophagist, i am like "oh that solo is really melodic but complex. good solo!" i mean, most death metal bands have killed solos. but then i hear j's solos get praised and i'm like "hmm.."

certainly, a lot of j's are tolerable, but... i dunno. i never really "got" long solos. and i probably couldn't differentiate a "good" solo from a "bad" solo, because any solo that goes over 30 seconds is probably bad.

so yeah. i dunno.

i just usually hate guitar solos.. especially greg ginn's and the slayer dudes'.

On that picture he looks like he's performing fellatio on himself.

HECKLER SPRAY 06.29.2007 09:12 AM

Yeah, I'd like to cut his hair on this pic to see what he's really doing...

No matter how many, it will always be less than the number of simultaneous Dino threads going on this board at any given time.

therealglenstyler 06.29.2007 09:37 AM

are you saying that J.Mascis cracks one off roughly 62.5 times a day? my nuts are aching just thinking about it.

see, J's solos are so amazing because they're imrovised and not too technical. he never plays the same thing twice and they all sound so raw.

but anyways he doesnt practice every day, so it should be per week which i would say 28.

J mascis asks fro nothing and gives everything
he speaks little and sayds everything
he is the Slack GOD and you better cower before him
You better not look upon him with your naked eye (buttholes!)
He will show you children the error of your ways.



and REIGN IN BLOOD is the greatest thrash metal song ever

and answering the thread, judging by the beyond, he can't pop rad guitar solos anymore. dude's dry as a well.

king_buzzo 06.29.2007 10:59 AM

i think that opening solo on almost ready is pretty rad.

Everyneurotic 06.29.2007 11:05 AM
