What guitar strings does John Mayer use?
I read that he uses D'Addario XL115 strings for his electrics and D'Addario EXP16 strings for his acoustics. <------------- WRONG!!
John uses Ernie Ball Super Slinkys on his electrics and Ernie Ball Acoustic Coated Slinkys on his acoustics. I don't think that John has ever used D'Addario strings.
Where did rock and roll get its name from?
Rock 'n' roll is about fun, dancing, and teenage angst. I know, I was there.
Actually, back in the 1950's and prior to this the term " Rock and Roll " was used among the African - American as a slang term for sex.
Many R & B songs in the 30's and 40's make reference to this fact, and this is why to this day sex is such a main stream in our popular music, or what we have come to know as ROCK AND ROLL!
What is the theme of the song Living on a prayer by Bon Jovi?
Once upon a time
Not so long ago
Tommy used to work on the docks
Union's been on strike
He's down on his luck...it's tough, so tough
Gina works the diner all day
Working for her man, she brings home her pay
For love - for love
She says we've got to hold on to what we've got
'Cause it doesn't make a difference
If we make it or not
We've got each other and that's a lot
For love - we'll give it a shot
[Chorus:]
Whooah, we're half way there
Livin' on a prayer
Take my hand and we'll make it - I swear
Livin' on a prayer
Tommy's got his six string in hock
Now he's holding in what he used
To make it talk - so tough, it's tough
Gina dreams of running away
When she cries in the night
Tommy whispers baby it's okay, someday
We've got to hold on to what we've got
'Cause it doesn't make a difference
If we make it or not
We've got each other and that's a lot
For love - we'll give it a shot
[Chorus]
We've got to hold on ready or not
You live for the fight when it's all that you've got
[Chorus]
What does the song In the End by Linkin Park mean?
The awesome thing about lyrics, metaphors, poetry, is that they can be interpreted and applied however the listener desires. With some songs they tell stories and those are not up for much interpretation. But with a song like this it is you may decide its meaning for yourself. I encourage you to listen to the lyrics to find meaning for yourself. For me it is a somewhat inspirational song. "I tried so hard, and got so far, but in the end it doesn't really matter." To me the song always reminds me sometimes not take life so seriously, because in the end it doesn't truly matter. It could be pessimistic to say we will all day, but it is also realistic and it is better to be at peace with this. This song makes me happy. Some people may interpret this song negatively, some positively, some may not listen to it, and some may not know what it is. That is the greatness, that music is personal no matter who made it.

Does David lee roth have a son?
Avy Lee Roth the pornstar is his daughter.
David lee Roth has never acknowledged fathering any child. this woman and another came hes their father but its nothing more than that. he was the first rock star noted for having paternity insurance to protect himself from such events. hes never been sued for child support or alimony.
Why is Elton John still remembered today?
If you are asking about him as a person, he is well-known for his charitable work, especially as an advocate for AIDS research and prevention, and for the many times he has performed on behalf of causes he supports (such as organizations that fight child poverty). And if you are asking about him as a performer and artist, Elton John has had an impressive record as a hit-maker over the decades-- nearly sixty of his songs made the top-40 charts, 27 of which went to the top-10, and 9 of which went to number one. Also, he has consistently reinvented himself to remain relevant in the face of changing styles of pop music; and to this day, when he tours, his concerts are sold out.
What is the most played rock song of all time?
Answer:
The below answer is good, but is too vague. I will leave that up because of all the great songs on there, but according to Digital Dream Door, Rock Music List, and Audio Visual Revolution, it is by far, beyond a reasonable doubt that the song Stairway to Heaven by Led Zeppelin is the greatest rock song of all time. Just looking at the evidence of how popular this song is, anybody who would think otherwise I would consider to be unreasonable and ignorant.
Also, Stairway to Heaven is the most replayed song ever made and beats the tar out of any other song, looking at the number of people at the concerts, songs bought, random selection by Genius, and many other credible sources.
Wow... that's a hard one....
Most famous is probably either something by The Beatles (Help, Let it Be, Lucy and the Sky of Diamonds) or something like Walk This Way by Aerosmith
But still there is AC-DC(Highway to Hell, Back in Black, Thunderstruck, For those about to Rock...)
Lynard Skynard with Free Bird and Sweet Home Alabama.
Then there is Gun's n' Roses with Sweet Child of Mine, Paradice City, and Welcome to the Jungle.
Heart with Barracuda
Led Zeppelin with Kashmir, Black Dog, Immigrant Song, and Stairway to Heaven

Pink Floyd with Great Gig in the Sky, Money, and Another Brick in the Wall

U2 with Vertigo, Sunday Bloody Sunday, and Where the Streets have No Name
ZZ Top with La Grange, Sharp Dressed Man, and Cheap Sunglasses
Van Halen with You Really Got Me

How many Grateful Dead bandmates died?
The Grateful Dead released about 20 albums and about 20 singles between 1966 and 1990. That does not include compilations and individual releases by various band members.
But I want to know how many individual songs they recorded...not the number of albums.
Johnny Allen Hendrix was born on November 27 1942 in Seattle Washington to James Allen "Al" Hendrix and Lucille Jeter. At the age of 3 Al Hendrix changed Johnny Allen Hendrix to James Marshall Hendrix, which was the name that stuck until he became famous. Jimi received his first acoustic guitar in the summer of 1958 and it became his constant companion until his death on September 18th, 1970 at the age of 27.
James Marshall "Jimi" Hendrix recorded three studio albums (Are you Experienced?, Axis: Bold as Love, and Electric Ladyland), two live albums (Band of Gypsy's and Historic Performances Recorded at the Monterey International Pop Festival) two compilations (Smash Hits and Electric Jimi Hendrix which has never been released) and twelve singles ("Hey Joe", "Purple Haze", "Wind Cries Mary", "Burning of the Midnight Lamp", "Foxey Lady", "Up from the Skies", "All Along the Watchtower", "Crosstown Traffic", "Stone Free", "Fire", "Stepping Stone"and "Voodoo Child (Slight Return)") during his lifetime.
Twenty-Five Subsequent albums of live and pre-recorded material have been released since his death, the last being in 2010.
Called the Father of Metal, The Father of Modern Rock; Hendrix was what every subsequent guitarist that grew up listening to him would want to be; A Guitar Hero.
His flamboyance in fashion, stage presence, and constant musical experimentation opened the doors for a new breadth of guitar based music. His unpredictable personality and steady diet of recreational drugs made him a mythic figure. But ultimately it was his sudden and inexplicable death from a reaction to a combination of sleeping pills and alcohol that left the greatest mark on his friends and fans.
Jimi Hendrix was the bestest, fastest, craziest, most rockin' guitar player there was.
and will ever be. Could play the guitar insanely with his teeth
Whose richer paul mcartney or sir Elton John?

) is richer than Sir Elton John (£240m
). However, please note that McCartney's figure includes the fortune of his wife, Nancy Shevell.
What is Bruce Springsteen's real name?
Bruce Silverstein. Just kidding! It's Bruce Frederick Joseph Springsteen.
Who was elvis Presleys drummer?
Elvis' drummer from his start till his 60's movie career was DJ Fontana. Buddy Harman a legendary Nashville studio drummer played on some of Elvis' movie sound tracks. When Elvis came back to the stage to play concerts and record records in 1968 Ronnie Tutt played for Elvis on stage and in the studio. Larry Londin filled in a couple of gigs for Ronnie in 1977.
What was the first rock n roll song to hit number 1 on the charts?
The first No. 1 song on the charts (proper rocknroll) is Rock around the clock
by Bill Haley(Apex)
You didn't include the choices, but most sources would say it was Bill Haley and the Comets, with "Rock Around the Clock," which became a huge top-40 hit in 1955.
Why do many of todays parents say rock music is discordant?
Because they're old
These days I don't think they worry so much about them listening to it as they are about some of the places they go to listen to it. Drugs and Alcohol can be good fun but on the other hand they can also turn a young persons life into a pile of crap.
Who originally recorded Bruce Springsteen's song fire?
Springsteen did write a song entitled "Fire", but there are a number of songs with the same one-word title. Hendrix had a monster hit with his own song Fire, and other songs of the same name have been recorded by artists as diverse as the Ohio Players and the Beach Boys.
Springsteen's song was originally written with the idea that Elvis Presley would record it, as Bruce was a huge Elvis fan. However, after it was written, Elvis died in 1977, and Bruce ended up giving the song to Robert Gordon, a rockabilly artist in the New York music scene. Gordon released his version in 1978. Springsteen also recorded the song at this time, during the sessions for his 1978 Darkness on the Edge of Town, but he ended up not releasing his version on that album (that version was just released in later 2010 on his 2 record set The Promise, made up of outtakes from the "Darkness" sessions).
When Springsteen performed the song live, a producer heard it and brought it to the Pointer Sisters, who had a top-5 R&B hit with it in late 1978 or early 1979.
