Bass Pro Shops

piano, bass, and guitar are the instruments that I play. The one that I will be talking about most is bass because I spend the most time on it, and it is currently my favorite to play. This spring, I bought a bass guitar from a guy who lived in Wichita. When I did this, it opened up a lot of things in my bass playing. I went from only having a standup bass at school to having a guitar at home. That is when I started learning many new things. One of the techniques I started to learn on the bass…

My interest in the musical genre of Jazz begins with an introduction to the song So What by Miles Davis from the Kind of Blue album []. At the time, my musical taste were more volume driven like bands such as Black Flag, Metallica, and Slayer where the only requirement was to increase the volume to match their intense sound. As I sat down and listen to the first minute of “So What”, my first immediate reaction was the realization of how soft and desolated the song felt with barely any…

In an ever changing world, there are some things that will forever seem to be the same; the sky has been and shall be blue, people have and will constantly fall in and out of love, the fear of the unknown has been experienced by many, and many more will experience such a feeling, and an orchestra has always been seated that way it has - string instruments in the front with brass, woodwinds, and percussion in the back. Various things that function in a certain way, and continue to function in…

From Room 93 to Badlands, much had changed in artist Halsey’s career. For over nine months in 2014, the singer only had one single called “Ghost,” a song about loving someone who was toxic to you. In early October, she released a five track EP called Room 93, which told the experiences of a few youth that affected their day-to-day lives. It only took a year, from sleeping at her manager’s parents’ house to having her own apartment in L.A., for her to be inspired to make this album. On August 28,…

Gibson vs Fender the top two biggest guitar brands in the world. A huge debate is which one is the best or better. I will be telling you about 1 model of each brand. The Fender “Stratocastor” and Gibson “Les Paul”. I have a 1980 Les Paul and a 2007 Startocastor; and use both quite often. Let's start off with the tone. The Gibson has more of a thick, creamy tone all around, it can also scream if you want it to. Fender can have multiple tones because of the more options on the pickup selector,…

Name of singer and instruments played. The singer I will be doing my assessment on is J.cole, J.cole was highly influenced by more electronic artists so most of his instruments are equipment like beat pads, the keyboard and of course his voice. Just because his music is mainly loops and sounds doesn’t mean there are no drums and such involved, he often uses drum loops, guitar samples etc… Brief Biography. J.cole, also known as Jermaine Cole has had an extremely tragic life, he was born at a US…

Typically, this low- pitched instrument mostly played a supporting part towards the drummer in setting the rhythm and beat of a audio. But through the years, it became widely acknowledged in numerous styles of music. This musical instrument that frequently leads to your heart to beat actual quick is really being played as being a…

Legend of the “Hanging Judge” While in search of a piece of Arkansas history I came across a familiar name when research brought me to Judge Isaac Parker. Remembered today as the “Hanging Judge”, Isaac C. Parker had an impressive thirty-five year career in public service. He became a frontier attorney, later served as a city attorney, state judge, a two year term representative to Congress, and his most notable legacy as a federal district judge in Fort Smith, Arkansas for twenty-one years.…

Introduction The social sciences, the study of human in society and the relationships between humans, connect with how humans interact with each other. Especially how they treat each other after problematic issues, like when their goodness is at stake impacts human behavior. Thus, leading to the expression “throwing someone under the bus” and causing distress to both parties of this situation. The first example is a classic Christmas film, Elf. The second example is an episode from a popular TV…
