Did Damien throw his plectrum into crowd at Wembley gig - Page 2

Inuit · 11-02-2007, 03:53 AM

from what I remember reading these forums, damien doesn't even use picks that much, if at all.

Chuck Norris doesn't use picks while playing a guitar. He uses Damien Rice.

9,000 posts?

I hear he picks with his erection poking out of his trousers. It at least explains the faces he makes:

why not? you gear heads always talk about all of his other fancy schmancy equipment, his rat and his dl6 and his ak47 mic, etc. how come we never talk about picks and strings? it's the only equipment some of us can afford ;p

no he does. he looks like his index finger has been amputated when he's fingerpicking because he uses his thumb, 3, 4 and 5th fingers and holds the pick with his index. then he whips out the pick when he strums. it's the oddest technique i've ever seen, but it seems to work well

Yes, i have been a complete idiot by buying the pick. Just been back on ebay to see if any more Damien picks are being sold and an orange dunlop one is being sold, by a different seller but the description is exactly the same as the one i bought. Can't believe i've been so stupid!!!!

I can't find the orange one from yesterday, i don't know if it has been purchased or if it has been taken off, but the link is here for the one i bought, if you click on it then just scroll down. The other one said exactly the same accept it was an orange pick not green.

Has to be fake unless he did an instore signing somewhere..

I don't think that he uses plectrum at all, I've never seen him playing with a plectrum.

RonjaGirl · 11-19-2007, 12:08 PM

Yes, he uses a plectrum...for example in "I remember".
If you look at this video he starts without one and at about 3:22 when the angry part of the song starts he taks the plectrum, which was lying on the guitare.

He probably uses on in oter songs too, but this is just one where you can see it pretty good.
