Guitar Video Log 9 - Overkill (Motorhead)
59My attempt to play Overkill by Motorhead. This video should probably come with a government health warning but for all my efforts I don't seem to be getting any better. I've spent over a week on it so I figured I'd run through it once more and post it no matter what it sounds like. I've got some consolation that it's better than the only other cover I could find on youtube at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xdUseDAVkL0 since I'm at least trying to play the right notes. I was tempted to sing after hearing Spinnyfuck's post with Anton Maiden but luckily for anyone watching this I don't have a decent mike.
The trick to listening to this would be to play it so loud you can't hear the notes and recreate the experience of being at a Motorhead gig. My hearings never been the same since I saw them at Wolverhampton Civic Hall where they managed to pack the sort of speaker system you would use for a gig at an outdoor stadium into a room not much bigger than your average pub. Didn't put me off seeing them again in Leeds though......
