Metallica - Hero Of the Day - Tribute
Influence to:
"Roots of Rock/Metal"
Also this video is dedicated to Joy a very good friend of the Leopard Lounge aka leopardjoy. For making so many musicians out there very happy by supporting our music. Shes a You Tube Hero for musicians! Without people like her doing these great shows for us, would make it really boring! I think that gives us more encouragement to strive forward with our music as well.
Thanks Joy!

Recently uploaded, DreidMusicalX's rendition of Metallica's "Hero Of The Day" is so tight, at first I thought the original recording was overpowering his guitar track. However, after closer inspection, and thanks to some parts in which he plays it differently, it became obvious he wasn't being overpowered... he was just doing the tightest. Cover. Ever... EVER!
Thanks! Im Honored!
Thanks to all who have placed on links and websites around the world!
The reason I do this on this song this way is simple! To match the exact tones of the cd for one! That was the entire reason I did this song this way using Line 6. Not all songs I do on here are this way.There other is not to become a clone of the cd itself, yet to become a 3rd guitar player in it! Thats why I re wrote a little bit of it here and there to not over power the songs sound with double bass notes. That happens allot in recording when 2 guitars play the same bass notes thats distorted. It get so deep it can ruin the song! Only the Bass guitar should accent the guitars and thats really enough already. When 2 guitarist write something allot of the time they play it similar but still differently accenting each other. I wanted to keep this still a cover song but like I said also to keep it as being the 3rd guitar player in Metallica's songs Hero of the Day. So if this was to be played live with 3 guitar player the way have with a band called 6 cylinder that had 3 guitar players it would break off like this.
The rhythm guitar and Bass player would kinda be one half accenting the 2 lead guitars on stage. Its how we did it allot and it came out sounding great! The Bass still plays and accents us all but its the breakup I used.
For better sound live on stage you would have the stage set like this.
Left Side of stage:
Bass and 1 Lead Guitarist amps
Right Side of stage
Rhythm And other Lead guitarist amps
Drums in the Middle LG - BG - Drums - RG - LG
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------This creates a stereo effect and keep it more equal sounding across the room.
For more information on how we did it or on stage setups and more join my website. And if you have other information to help better musicians we are always welcome to have you tells us your ways! We are all here to learn more about music. Well at least I am? lol! We learn new things everyday as musicians no matter how long we have been doing it?
Thanks again and I hope you enjoyed the cover!

Suck ME Cock! LOL! SO funny! Theres people out there who are just jealous or plain retarded. NO LIFE! I happen to take my playing very serious. In the last 3 years NONE of them has EVER had a single video of their own posted being the pro players they claim to be. Although it would be easier for them to go watch some of my own songs that are much harder on my channel DreidMusicalX2 to see I do not fake, or just go to the videos where I teach this song all the way through posted above. lol!

@bezumsteeltjuh Ya VOX amps are nice as well. I almost bought one of them before the Line 6 Flextone IIIXL I had. My dream amp though is still the Vetta II. But you should be able to make it sound warmer as well with any Line 6 amp if you model the tone right. (If the amp gives you complete control of remodeling the tone) Also depending on what speakers you are using. I believe they both L6 & VOX use Celestion speakers? Can't remember if VOX does or not? lol!
