Guitar tuning where the E string is tuned to D. This allows a guitarist to play power chords with ease and speed. Many people tend to think that drop D tuinng is used simply by beginners, but if that's what you think then you are probably not a very good guitarist yourself. People who play extremely technical guitar often use this tuning simply for being able to have a huge range of what they can play without sacrificing great speed.

On the other end of the spectrum, drop d is used acoustically for a lot of blues music.
songs that I hate in drop D:
"Ode" by Creed
"Never Again" by Nickelback

Fantastic Songs in Drop D:
Most Pain of Salvation songs
Opeth - Demon of the Fall, Blackwater Park
Rush - Between the Wheels and Stick it Out
Live - Lakini's Juice
drop d by Cleve January 14, 2008
The difference of drop D from standard tuning allows for the three bass strings to form a D5 power chord, which can be shifted up or down the fretboard with a single finger (usually the index) to produce any power chord quickly and easily. Drop-D also enables the guitarist to play a step lower than in standard tuning, and many artists value this deeper, fuller sound.

Dropped D tuning is perhaps most widely used in heavy metal or rock music as they take full advantage of the easier power chord transitions needed for extremely fast playing. However, the tuning has also been used in many other types of music, including blues, country, and folk. Most modern metal guitarists use or have used Drop D tuning.

This tuning may be the most prominent tuning in modern rock and metal, but it is not uncommon for these guitarists to play in E-flat tuning/down tuning or dropped C tuning.

Drop D also allows fingerpickers to play chord shapes higher up the neck while maintaining an alternating bass.
Drop D is for people who are actually capable of playing the guitar FAST.
DROP D by autorian January 14, 2008
A guitar tuning in which you tune the low e string to d. Often used as a crutch, but many bands use it well (see Led Zeppelin's "10 Years Gone"). But seriously, you could step on a guitar tuned to drop D and it would sound good.
Drop D is really useful if your just beginning to write, but as you advance, you should tune to something else to avoid your riffs getting old.

Drop D dickhead music 

The majority of modern heavy metal. Music which is thrashy for the sake of thrashy and usualy played by complete idiots.

Usualy played in drop D (a guitar tunning acheived by by loosening the low E until it is a D) as the name would sugest, but can be played in any drop tunning.

Most riffs will consist of 2 to 4 bars of beefy low end crunch, followed by a quick Dime squeel. Lyrics will either be growled or sang in a wingy moany fashion similar to crying. Drummer will usualy play with a double bass pedal and a chineese ride symbol.

Common characteristics include: Not being able to tell riffs apart from each other, not being able to tell songs apart from each other, not being able to tell bands apart from each other.
Dickhead in boiler suit: "Are you going to download festival this year?".
Classic metaler: "No".
Dickhead in boiler suit: "Why not?"
Classic metaler: "coz it's all drop D dickhead music".
Dickhead in boiler suit:(begins to winge like a bitch)
Achieved by tuning the low E guitar string to a D, in order to make power chords playable with a single bar on the bottom 3 strings (or bottom 2). Drop D is mainly used for playing power chords extremely quickly. If not, then it is used by talentless artists. Bands such as the Beatles and Led Zeppelin have used Drop D tuning in their music. A common misinterpretation is that metal artists use drop D. Usually, drop D is for heavy rock. Metal bands tend to use drop C or B.

Bands who commonly play in:
Drop D: Nickelback, Billy Talent, various hard rock/alternative
Drop Db: Linkin Park, Disturbed, various hard rock/alternative/metal
Drop C: System of a Down, Three Days Grace, various heavy metal
Drop B: Slipknot, various death metal
People who think that drop D and talent can't be used in the same sentence are fools. They are thinking of drop C.

Back when I lived in upstate new york 

A meaningless, unimpressive, self-serving introduction. An indicator that the story about to be shared will be pointless and dumb.
Back when I lived in upstate new york, I also had to park on the street - on two occasions, we got enough snow, mixed with just the right plowing, that my car was lifted off the ground from so much snow being jammed underneath it.

Sister: This meeting was to discuss the rough draft of my essay, where we discussed the subsidiary questions I added in my rough draft. We also discussed the relationship between my main title and the real-life situations I chose to use in my essay. We discussed the structure of my essay as well, specifically the Math AOK section and how it relates to the contradiction of the title. This second meeting was particularly helpful in discussing the implications of my essay claims and how to apply the title across various areas of knowledge. There were many sections of the essay that could have been cut down in wordiness and the ways of knowing required further and more in-depth analysis.
