OK, you are at a Johnny Cash concert. Johnny comes out and says "Hello.
I'm Johnny Cash." Yeah, he's dead, but stick with me here. The band
starts playing, that archetypal Johnny Cash rhythm;
bum dada dum dada bum dada dum dada
bum dada dum dada bum dada dum dada
for a while, and then, as always, the guitar player play *that*
descending riff on the pentatonic minor scale E D B A G E. You know,
*that* riff.
Here's the problem: I pronounce it "dikka dikka dong dang", while my
wife insists it's "dinka dinka dong doo".
I am at the end of my patience with her, and counseling hasn't helped.
We have agreed to abide by your decision.

There is no "doo" in a Johnny Cash song. Eric Clapton plays "doo".
Most likely it's "dung", not "dang".
And by the way, if it's "weee-yooo-oooo", it's probably Fripp... but if it's
"weee-yooo-YA-aa-aa-aNG" odds are it's Eddie Van Helsing.

I lean toward "dikka dikka dong dang," but I think
that bum dada dum dada is bug-fukka-bug-fukka-bug.
Least ways, we call it "bug fucker" music in these parts.
I'm stuck back in the 60's
That's where I spend my days
Playin' songs by Jefferson Airplane
And Hendrix' Purple Haze
Waitin' for the limo
If the limo doesn't come
I'll just be another
Guitar-playin' bum
'cuz I'm stuck back in the 60's
That's where I spend my days
Playin' songs by Jefferson Airplane
And Hendrix' Purple Haze
bug-fukka-bug-fukka-bug

Leave the bug fuckin' to the country boys.
First, get a distortion pedal and learn to scream on key.
Then tune all your strings down a half step, pick a key, and make up a
couple simple percussive-sounding overdriven hooks with a funky or
bluesy edge. Play those during the intro and verses.
For the chorus, bridge, and last verse, just bang on I-IV-V power chords
as hard as you can, with tons and tons of distortion.
EQ bass down, midrange all the way up, treble in between, gain up all
the way ("this amp has a cutout, right?"). Pure emotion always beats
perfect technique, and never forget: you hate everything that everyone
around you stands for, and you hate yourself for what you see of them in
you.
Lyrics:
waiting for

waiting for

why don't you just drop out
drop out
dying for
the limo
if the limo

dropout fuckin' bum
fuckin' bum
fuckin' bum
fuckin' bum
[incoherent screaming]
goddamn fuckin' bum

OK, OK--
but still, where's the "dikka dikka dong dang" thang?
I think the reference is to the intro to "Folsom Prison" maybe--

Do it at the end of the song after you let everything feed back for a
while. The irony will be almost too much to bear.

I think the term you and Nenslo are both trying to describe is either
"thud" or "dung." In fact, those are your most likely alternatives
when responding to any alt.slack post.
