Friday 10/9 Diamond Quest Rewards (actual cards)
-
Brother, I’m 71 years old and didn’t play since 23 and only got 26 on September 1st when it was free. I haven’t spent a dime and have an all 99 team and $1M in stubs. If I can do DQ with ease, so can you. If you can play Conquest on Legend or even HOF you will get better at hitting. You need patience at the plate. Just gotta quit playing on Rookie and Veteran. Now just do it.
While I appreciate the advice and recognize that you are absolutely correct, that if I practiced more on the harder difficulties then I would indeed get better and be more successful with this mode.
The problem is that when I play the game I just want to have some fun. If I want to spend productive time practicing to get better at something then I would break out my guitars, which have been ignored far too long.

Brother you can earn packs and cards playing Conquest on a harder level and still have fun getting better. And while we are on the subject, I’m practicing on my Les Paul through a vintage Fender Tube Amp right now. Do both. Never regret what you can do now that you can’t do when you too old to. -
Okay, if you guys are really guitar players then what are the first 6 chords in Free Bird?
️ -
Man I never learned it fully but I am pretty sure the solo section is just G, Bb and C
The intro is like G, ??, Em
The second chord just lowers the bass note to F# or something but I am not sure if the chord name?
My guitars are tucked away in their cases so I can't work it out right now

Honestly I like Freebird a lot but I play and or learn early Allman Brothers Band stuff and Blues. Didn’t say I was great but love playing. I do have a Korina Explorer and a Firebird because I liked Allen Collins so much. My Les Paul and SG are because of Duane and Dickey and what they played on Fillmore East. -

Jack is probably one of the best unknown guitarists there is. And he plays mostly cheap Squire guitars. However he is so good, any guitar he plays he sounds awesome on. I saw a video of him playing Duane Allman’s SG and he was awestruck. Did you know that Dickey gave his SG to Duane because he didn’t like to wait on Duane to retune during live shows on his Les Paul? That was after Fillmore and not long before Duane died. Duane has been my favorite guitarist since 1971 when I was 16. -
@Texas10pt_MLBTS Jack is also just an incredibly humble and nice guy.
Go to YouTube and find a video of Jack and Tommy Emmanuel playing Avalon together on two acoustics. I am the one who filmed that.

Tried the DQ. Won every moment/showdown. Got Springer.
Played the second stadium game. Set it on veteran because I didnt want to risk itFirst inning, single, stole second and third. Ground ball > thrown out at home.
Second inning: single. stole second and third with 1 out. perfect perfect line out
Third inning: perfect perfect fly ball to deep center (with the exit velo perk and 102 power)
fourth inning: another thrown runner out at home, and another perfect perfect fly out
fifth inning two run homer
bottom of the fifth: 2 run homerwon game in seventh. did not get card. At least I didnt lose Springer, but I think I am done with the game for the year

Hi Guys, ha ha. That second chord is just D with the F# bass note on top. That Beatles All You Need is Love little downward riff. And yup - G, Bb, C. I remember right before I left home for college, yelling the chord changes to my Dad who was feeling no pain and talking to one of his Army Buddies on the phone. Oh my God. The Fillmore East album came out when I was 4 and my parents wore out their copy. They were both in their late teens when I came along and always seemed to be fighting when Whipping Post was playing. My Dad was a bass player mostly. As the song goes, I know all the chords but I’m strictly rhythm, I never made it cry or sing.
-
I'm kinda embarrassed that I did not recognize the D chord even after knowing that the F# was in the bass.

Tommy is a fellow Aussie so I was lucky enough to see him live many a time in my youth.I saw Tommy and Slava Grigoryan many times, despite largely growing up an emo/hardcore music fan in the early 2000s.
