Well unless you are coming up with new songs etc, what songs are you learning on your electric banjos (aka guitars), basses and/or drums.

I am learning, or rather re-learning Welcome Home - King Diamond.

All the lead work from Testament's Alone In The Dark. People may not like them (i do) but Alex Skolnick is a fucking god at writing/playing solos...

Great riff. I was playing around one day and it just came to me. It was great.

I'm just learning band stuff and Jeff Loomis stuff.

Aye it is good practice for a shitty player like me. Alternate picking, Hammers Ons it is a good practice track.

Plus it is a awesome song.

I decided "Hey I know, why not learn an Avenged Sevenfold song" so I picked up my bass, brought up the tab to Beast and the Harlot...took about 30 seconds to get the whole song down. Lazy twat bassist

I'm in too much of a good mood, so I might try and play some Primus to anger myself.

Mainly classical stuff.

Toccata in D Minor atm.

Ive been meaning to learn a lot more classical stuff... any recommendations?

Paganini's 24th Caprice - Try and get the acoustic Jason Becker version, its proper good and stuff

Forget classical rubbish. ROCK N ROOOOOOOOOOLL!!!111

I may invest in a cheap as fuck slide and learn some George Thorogood tracks actually.

Actually i have decided to learn all of Come To The Sabbath, not just the riffs i like

Darkness Descends.

Dark Angel. Great band.

The only songs I've learned lately, (other than stuff I've written myself) is Staring Through the Eyes of the Dead by Cannibal Corpse because my band said they'd grow some balls and cover it, ACDC's back in black because I had to teach it to a bunch of kids at a music school (£13 an hour! WHOOO)
and Slave New World, Chaos AD and Roots Bloody Roots, so I could help out more music students (again, for £13 an hour! hahaha).

Roots Bloody Roots is easily the shittest song ever written. I can't believe I used to like it.
