Festival Fashion - What to Wear at a Music Festival

The summer months in Britain offer a deluge of music festivals, which are often the saving grace for anyone who can't find the time or money to organise a trip abroad.

The music - and the general campsite experience - will always deliver the opportunity for a great time; but small details, such as wearing unsuitable clothing, can often put a blot on an otherwise enjoyable occasion. A little planning beforehand should ensure that everything runs smoothly, allowing you to fully embrace the festival spirit.

Checking a weather forecast before packing is always advisable. If it's going to be a weekend of searing heat you'll have no use for a stack of jumpers, while if it's going to be wet the whole time there may be no real need for flip-flops or beach shorts. Packing light is advisable but taking more underwear and socks than you think you'll need is a good idea, especially if rain is forecast.

Festival Fashion - What to Wear at a Music Festival

Suitable footwear is also vital. Most likely, you're going to be spending all day in the same pair, so buying new shoes that haven't been broken in yet isn't recommended. Obviously, if you're expecting a lot of rain and mud, wellies are the logical choice.

Looking your best is always important, even at a festival. If you're camping, you won't have full length mirrors to check out your style and being able to make a quick getaway from the campsite to the stage is important if you want a good spot at the front. That means having a pre-planned look - either something you've worn before or something you've bought specially - can give you a head start. With the constant threat of muddy, slippery fields doubled with the inevitable liquids being drank - and thrown - by members of the crowd, your clothes are always at risk. Wearing dark or colourful clothes will help hide any stains that you pick up along the way.

Wearing a hat can help protect you from wet projectiles in the crowd and can also shield you from the elements; whether it's rain or the sun beating down on you, standing outside all day can leave you open to attack. If hot weather is predicted, it's always best to also wear suntan lotion and sunglasses. Sporting sunburn is not only uncomfortable, it can also dangerous to your health.

If it is sunny, a T-shirt and a pair of shorts should suffice; but at colder - or wetter - times, wearing additional clothing is required. A light, waterproof jacket is useful but if you forget one then most campsites will sell ponchos. Combat trousers have many pockets, which is handy for storing your festival essentials while taking a jumper to wear at night makes the campsite a bit more comfortable.

Wearing the right festival wear [http://www.topman.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/CategoryDisplay?catalogId=17551&storeId=12555&categoryId=127910&langId=-1&top=Y] can often make a big difference to your enjoyment of an event; whether that involves swimming in mud, or baking in the sunshine.

Bishop G E Patterson Singing The Old Time Way Gospel Music CD Review

Singing The Old Time Way is the latest release from Gospel Artist Bishop G.E. Patterson, and is another winner from this talented musician.

I wish it weren't the case but, it's not everyday that I get a CD from an artist that I can just pop in and comfortably listen to from beginning to end. There is usually a song or two that I just can't force myself to get through. Not at all the case with Singing The Old Time Way. Every track is enjoyable and was pretty easy for me to listen to from start to finish.

Music - What Makes Some Songs Hits and Others Ordinary?

Growing up as a child who loved music I was amazed by the fact that no matter what happened there were always new songs playing on the radio. Some exciting and some boring. Some would go straight to number one on the charts and stay there for weeks and everyone wanted to have that record in their collection, whilst other songs were soon forgotten. I began to quiz and question why it is like that. Is it the architecture of the song or the financing behind it? Is it the brilliance of the singer or something else?

I came up with ten things that go into a song that will become a hit.

Music

1. It is usually simple but with a good hook to it that you will not forget. I often find that hit songs are sometimes songs that little children can catch and sing along to.
2. It doesn't matter how good the natural talent of the singer is, if he or she doesn't get directed and produced properly, they will become ordinary. A good producer takes the raw talent and music and adds his touch to it and you have better music. There are producers who are known as hit makers because they have the flair that produces a hit song
3. The band must play skillfully and creatively in order to bring out the best arrangement that is pleasing to the ear.
4. Money and resources. Does money make the world go round? It plays its part in making the world go round and it enables talent to find expression. One of the biggest costs in the music industry is the promotional cost, the staging of live events, launches, and buying media space to promote the product, that is the music. Most good artists who do not make it to the top do not do so because they are underfunded. On their team they need to have a strong fundraiser who knows how to marshal resources on behalf of the musician
5.You do not know everything and being open to suggestions from others who may have travelled that path before will save you a lot of time and trouble and years in obscurity
6. You must be sure that you love what you are doing, have the talent for it and you are organized enough to succeed. Success is not about luck, neither does it come by accident. You can plan the success of your next project.
7.. Your song will be a hit if you have tested the market, understood its tastes and preferences and you produce a sound that satisfies that palate.
8. Media contributes to success in the music in a big way. You need to network, create relationships and ensure that your music is where it is supposed to be. Create good rapport with radio and television stations, get interviews and be seen in a positive light by members of the public who buy the music and provide listenership
9. You cannot make music to satisfy everyone. Be deliberate about your genre, the issues you tackle in your music, if it's done excellently according ton what the listeners want, it will be popular
10. Music as an expression of one's passion does wonders because there's no pressure to conform to what has previously been accepted or acceptable. You might be holding onto a music idea that is a breakthrough in your career.

The Charango - What Is A Charango?

When Spanish and Portuguese travellers set off to discover lands in the new world in the early 19th Century, they took with them their musical instruments. The most popular and most portable instruments at the time were small lute type instruments such as the vihuela, and the machete. In Europe, these instruments developed into the guitar, in Hawaii they developed into the ukulele and in Bolivia they developed in the charango.

Size

Music

The charango is about the size of a ukulele (but with a much wider neck). The average length of a charango is sixty six centimetres with the played part of the string (the scale length) being around thirty three centimetres.

The Charango - What Is A Charango?

Legend has it that the charango is small as the Spanish had outlawed the traditional music of Bolivia. The native Bolivians developed the charango so it could be easily hidden beneath a poncho should any Spanish soldiers arrive.

The Strings

The charango has ten strings. These strings are divided into groups of two. The string order, starting nearest your head, is G, C, E, A, E. The strings are in unison with the exception of the first set of E strings where one string is tuned an octave lower. This tuning is very similar to the ukulele (with only the high E strings being different).

Materials

Traditionally, the body of the charango has been made from the shell of an armadillo. This makes the instrument very individual. However, in recent years, there have been some environmental concerns over the use of armadillo shells and they are now produced from wood more often - particularly the high quality ones. Also, armadillo shells are much less durable than ones made of wood.

Playing the Charango

If you know how to play the guitar or the ukulele, you have a big advantage when it comes to learning to play the charango. The GCEA strings of the charango are exactly the same as a ukulele, or the top four strings of a guitar capoed at the fifth fret. Just use the chord shapes you are already familiar with. As for the top E string, the easiest option is to just double what you are playing on the other E string. If you are playing that E string open, do the same for the top E string. If you are playing that E string at the third fret, play the top E string at the third fret and so on.

The charango is a great instrument for anyone who already plays a fretted instrument to pick up. It will be instantly familiar yet present you with a whole range of new sounds and note combinations.

Guitar Scales For Country Music

The trick with music theory is to break everything down into
baby-step i.e., guitar scales for country music, guitar scales
for bluegrass music, guitar scales for jazz music, guitar scales
for rock music.

Let's say your primary style of music is country music. We could
subdivide the subject of music theory into: what guitar scales
for country, what chord progressions for country, what style of
country music, what guitar techniques for country.

Music

What guitar scales for country:

Guitar Scales For Country Music

major pentatonic, major diatonic, cascading scales ...

What chord progressions for country:

two chord songs, three chord songs, four chord songs ...

What style of country music:

Traditional country, modern country, country rock ... What guitar techniques for country:

Hammer-on's, pull-off's, bends, slides ...

As you zero in on the specific skills you need to learn the
complex subject of music theory becomes a lot less stressful
and much more achievable.

By dividing and sub diving any complex subject you also learn how
to accelerate your progress on guitar. The scales you would
learn for country guitar would be determined by what style of
country music you intended to play.

Instead of just saying "I want to play country guitar", if you
are prepared to dig a little deeper, you will decrease the amount
of information and skills you need to acquire by looking at each
area of country guitar playing i.e., chord progressions, if you
predominately played three chord songs in the keys of G and D,
you would only have to learn four chord shapes.

Three chord songs in key of G: G - C - D

Three chord songs in key of D: D - G - A

Although country guitar has spawned no shortage of modern greats
(Albert Lee, Ray Flacke, Danny Gatton, and the Hellecasters come
quickly to mind, although there are many others) in general,
however the music buying public doesn't really know how hip and
entertaining instrumental country guitar is.

Here's ten top country guitarists to get listening for specific
country guitar playing techniques.

1. Chet Atkins

2. Merle Travis

3. Jerry Reed

4. Roy Clark

5. Hank Garland

6. Albert Lee

7. Maybelle Carter

8. Doc Watson

9. Norman Blake

10. Tony Rice

The classic electric guitar sound for country music is
characterized by the undistorted sound of single-coil guitar
pickups, usually a Fender Telecaster or Fender Stratocaster, and
the employment of fairly undistorted amplification most often a
Fender Twin Reverb 100watt amp.

Guitar scales for country music are: major Pentatonic, major
diatonic, and to a lesser degree the minor pentatonic scale and
the blues scale.

The most popular guitar scales for country music are without
doubt the major pentatonic. the two most common ways of playing
this scale for country music is:

A major pentatonic scale (PATTERN 1)

sixth string, fifth fret, fourth finger

fifth string, second fret, first finger

fifth string, fourth fret, third finger

fourth string, second fret, first finger

fourth string, fourth fret, third finger

third string, second fret, first finger

third string, fourth fret, third finger

second string, second fret, first finger

second string, fifth fret, fourth finger

first string, second fret, first finger

first string, fifth fret, fourth finger

A major pentatonic scale (PATTERN 2)

sixth string, fifth fret, first finger

sixth string, seventh fret, third finger

sixth string, ninth fret, third finger

fifth string, seventh fret, first finger

fifth string, ninth fret, third finger

fourth string, seventh fret, first finger

fourth string, ninth fret, third finger

fourth string, eleventh fret, third finger

third string, ninth fret, first finger

third string, eleventh fret, third finger

second string, tenth fret, second finger

The fingering for the A major pentatonic scale (pattern 2) may
seem a little unusual at first, however with a little practice,
it will work out fine.

Both these patterns feature the same notes in the same
sequence, if you play each scale slowly and listen carefully you
will notice however a tone from certain notes, this is because
the notes are being playing on different strings resulting in a
different tone. Thicker strings produce a more mellow tone.

By learning these guitar scales for country guitar you will soon
be playing your favorite country guitar sounds.
