QUOTE(Equilibrium777 @ Jul 16 2007, 09:32 PM) ermm practically. . . you take the key for example Key of C: C D E F G A B C I II III IV V VI VII oct then just arrange according to the numbers. . . there are basic set formulas for certain genres of music. . . Jazz uses alot of II-V-I and so on so forth. . . with that you can start to play with modes as each number represents a mode. . . and from there you can expand sommore. . . lol you got any site where to find more arrangement on jazz ?

QUOTE(SweetTooth @ Jul 16 2007, 09:31 PM) i always prefer songs with more guitar playing then singing  something along the lines of opeth? at least as much guitar playing as singing la.. we're just a bunch of beginners, so we can't handle too many guitar solos. n yeah power chord rules!!

To Quote Herman Li:
Everybody thinks we play Dungeons and Dragons because we're called Dragonforce. We don't! Who the heck wants to roll 11 sided dice? We just play video games man.

for the theory. . . look for books that touch on theory only. . . where it be jazz rock metal or whatnot. . . they all revolve around the same formula. . . my knowledge is from reading books. . .
just drop by harmony or something and get a few. . . they have quite a number of good books there that can cover different levels. . .
Warcraft got ripp off DnD also 1 xD
DnD is like the one that started all them fantasy stuff xD

Guitar Grimoire by Adam Kadmon is really great. Should be available everywhere, if not, ask the bookshop to order one for you. It's RM90++.

I always thought BOTBs were popularity contests. Just play the most popular crowd favourite song and you're halfway there. Good luck getting crowd support with original songs bub!

I think it depends on what the judges want, if the marking sheets have "technique" "tightness" "sound balancing", then this BotB should be more focused on the band itself. Saw some BotB that have "audience appeal" "originality" "creativity" "appearance", obviously it is for bands that look good only, with mediocre skills also can win.
