I like the little kids jumping around personally. :)

That little blue guy was teh hXc tr00 grim n3cro black metal.

I've heard this is an awesome film. Did you like it?
I heard similar things about it. It was pretty disappointing though. Average.

So, on Sunday night I saw Okkervil River. They were awesome. Then I got wasted. Then I took a sick day on Monday. :cool:

Well, I'm off to bed. Peace out homies.

Hello, everyone. Pardon the interruption.

I have a little proposition for those interested:

R&M is running a song cover competition that, at first, was going to encompass only rock and metal (before, it was only a metal competition).

However, after some deliberation and also to try to reach out to the other genre forums, I'd like to extend the invitation to you guys as well.

The rules and guidelines are in the first post of that thread, right here (http://www.musicianforums.com/forums/showthread.php?t=420804).

So, if you guys have recording equipment and would like to submit an entry, by all means, please do so. It would be nice to have numerous entries from the different forums.

If not, then sorry for the interruption, and carry on. If you have any questions or anything, please e-mail me at my MX address or post in the thread.

[pikester]

I'll be doing some recording over christmas break. I'll totally submit a song or 2 when they're done.

[Jom]

One song per user, though. Sorry :)

[Zmev]

I can submit my Ween cover of I'm in a Mood to Move, yay.

[Happymeal]

Will The Fit-Out collaborate with your band Zach? If so that would be awesome.


Murs is performing on Saturday and I can't go =/

So I just found out that a chick I know's dad may be Nick Sheppard, guitarist for The Clash from 1983-1985.

I need to hook in with this chick to get to her dad.

Come on A+I people, don't let Buckley lose in the R+M vocalist poll thingy.

I'd click on your link but the man in the announcement told me not to.


EDIT: also, when you say 'Buckey loose,' do you mean 'Buckley lose?'

Should we all know what Timbits are?

If you're Canadian. And especially if you work at Tim Hortons.

That's like working at a ski shop and you turn to your co-worker and ask them what ski poles are.

That's interesting, I definitely prefer the later seasons to the first few. The first few seasons are still enjoyable but I find more to appreciate in the later episodes.

My favorite bits are (I think it's the first series) where they have the interview with Matt Stone and Trey Parker before each episode, it's hillarious when they keep stroking the dog "old scratch".

Nah, in retrospect the first two seasons were really lame. The animation was horrible and the only creativity went into how many ways they could kill Kenny. I think the show was great when they moved the focus away from all the Kenny-killing, but before they laid on the social commentary too thick.

That's why I've really enjoyed the most recent batch of episodes. The whale one last week, or the one with the gingers. Not so topical that they become dated after a month, but keeping with the show's evolving sense of humor.

I have an unhealthy obsession with the New York Dolls.

Everyone's gotta start somewhere, and I'm really really into "Heart of the Sunrise" and "South Side of the Sky" right now. The latter because it's cold here :( Close to the Edge is next.

But I don't know what Husker Du album to get. I'm sure Zen Arcade would be the logical starting point, but I'm guessing that New Day Rising has the songs I would like more on it. I've only heard one song from each (Pink Turns to Blue and Girl Who Lives on Heaven Hill), so I'm sure neither one would be "bad."

You can go wrong with neither. Zen Arcade is longer, so it's more Husker for your dollar. Still, they're both really great.

If it's a 2005 album you're planning to buy for her, I'd say Dead Meadow - Feathers, My Morning Jacket - Z (she'd probably like "It Beats for You" a lot), or The Woods. But those are just my preferences.

I saw Calvin Johnson last night and it was pretty fun. The best thing about seeing guys like Johnson perform is that they've got stories. And some sense of wisdom. He had a question and answer portion of the show where he discussed Stevie Martin, Black Flag and Henry Rollins, Family Guy, String Theory, The 5000 Fingers of Dr. T, Dusty Springfield, and my town, which he affectionately referred to as "Saccademento." He talked about other stuff and played acoustic versions of songs from his new album. He had to stand like two feet away from the mic so that he wouldn't implode the building with his voluminous voice.

I've never been to the Glass House, how is it?

EDIT: I've always assumed it was really far from me, but it's only about a half hour drive on a good day (according to Mapquest). I should start going there, they have some good groups come through once in a while.

[JonM]

Dude Iron & Wine/Calexico this Friday. And that's in the ATL. In other words, before the week is out, I will be home. That is hot.

[EightMilesHigh]

August is better cuz it's when my birthday is. In fact, by some curious, momentary lack of a social life, my join date was my 16th birthday.

Admit it. No-one came to your birthday party, so you discovered the internet.


And one thing kinda led to another :eek:

np: Barenaked Ladies - Lovers In A Dangerous Time

[JonM]

Admit it. No-one came to your birthday party, so you discovered the internet.
The funny thing is that I can't remember what I did for my birthday that summer. Like, the way you said it might really have been the way things went down.

[Wanker]

Dude Iron & Wine/Calexico this Friday.

Oh god, I wish I were seeing that.

:mad:



edit: on a side note, I found out that when someone gets hanged, they crap and ejaculate their pants as a result.

Seeing Wynton Marsalis and the Lincoln Center Jazz Orchestra tonight.

Save our college radio station. We may just play top 40 Alt/Pop (Kelly Clarkson, Nickelback, Seether, etc) but we used to have specialty shows where individuals could select the music. This was the only good quality about our station - and now they're trying to take it away.

Please sign it, we need many, many signatures. It would be most appreciated.

Cool Stuff.

I've just got Common near the end of the month, possibly Bear vs Shark supporting Limbeck/The Honorary Title (possibly because I don't really like those headliners) and maybe Tiger Army in February, and Every Time I Die/BTBAM/Bleeding Through in April.


Cave In is playing here tonight, I haven't heard them, only heard of them. Are they any good?

[superpeer]

I wanna see Tiger Army. :(

[pikester]

Seeing Wynton Marsalis and the Lincoln Center Jazz Orchestra tonight.

Niiiice.

I've got nothing coming up as far as gigs go.

[biografiend]

Yesterday was hawwwt. I went to go see So Many Dynamos, which were a-m-a-zing and another local band called the Arch, who were fronted by a 30-something yr old, chubby man with a combover who also played the trumpet. They played this sweet cover of Domo Ariogato, and had maybe a 5-song set, the last song being around 30 minutes long. I was somewhat crunk'd at this point on rum and cranberry juice and blackberry merlot, and decided to drink more so I could be even more crunk'd for So Many Dynamos, and was a ****ing freak on the dance floor. Afterwards, we did some hanging out with the bands and went home. Good times.

[EightMilesHigh]

I finished all my Christmas shopping today. I feel good.

[Anxious]

I have no obligation to buy gifts. I feel good.

[I Was A Kaleidoscope]

So Many Dynamos are good.
I don't really buy Christmas presents, I buy birthday presents.

[YDload]

I just buy Christmas presents for my two brothers. I'm a music jerk now so I am going to buy them CDs of bands they are unfamiliar with but I will assert that they like :evil:

[The NPC]

Nerds.

Nerds.

We all still hail to you, King Dweeb of Dork Mountain.

Nerds.

If loving Star Wars is wrong, I don't wanna be right.

I'm no king. Besides, I'd never want to be apart of your Nerd Society. You in fact make me sick. I can't view your user name without wanting to bash your face in or vomit on it. I can't stand it.

If loving Star Wars is wrong, I don't wanna be right.

I don't like Star Wars.

[br3ad_man]

The Kills
Les Savy Fav
Broken Social Scene
Behemoth
A number of Tapey's gigs
The Shins
Deerhoof


ghey

My friend's birthday party was real nice last night. She is the most innocent person I know, so seeing her drink alcohol was probably the wierdest thing I've seen all year.

[Zappa]

I played some ska today. 6 of us, three of which are named "Ben" got together and basically jammed in the key of G for two hours. I played trumpet, of course.

It actualy wasn't bad.

Neat.

I decided to just go back to what I've always done best, experimental crap, and I started a band with other bassist and a drummer. I think we'll just keep it with two bassists and drummer and just make our song really short with alot of extra noise-odd crap mixed in.

[I Was A Kaleidoscope]

I really REALLY want to see BSS and Sigur Ros.
Sigur Ros are expanding from Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane this year, to Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane and Perth next year.
Why did they decide to go to Perth and miss Adelaide? And why are BSS missing Adelaide too? Everyone always misses Adelaide, all the time. I want to see bands I actually like, dammit.

[br3ad_man]

Same here. The only difference is that I actually will be able to see bands I like in about 10 months. I'm going to Blues and Roots to see Sigur Ros, unless their Brisbane show turns out to be all ages, which it won't.

EDIT: I just might be able to see Antony and the Johnsons. That would be great.

[Happymeal]

Ahh, Chinese buffet night:smoke:

[Dave de Sylvia]

I'm spoiled for choice with bands around here, but money screws me over, and the fact none of my friends like the same less well known music as me.

[biografiend]

So Many Dynamos are good.
I don't really buy Christmas presents, I buy birthday presents.
So Many Dynamos are good. They are really good friends with some of my friends, whatevz, so we chilled out with Norm (the drummer) and talked to Aaron and Nathan for awhile after the show and Griffin stayed at a friend's house with us. I feel like I know famous people.

[EightMilesHigh]

I don't like Star Wars.

Seriously, how do you not like Star Wars? It's an awesome action/adventure story.

Ahh, Chinese buffet night:smoke:

Oh man. There's a Chinese buffet a little ways away from my house, and it's awesome. For, like, eight bucks, you get an evening of awesome food.

np: Sufjan Stevens - The Black Hawk War

They're pretty famous if I like them, seeing as I live in Australia.

[EightMilesHigh]

Since I don't have enough money for presents, I'm writing some of my friends songs for Christmas.

[I Was A Kaleidoscope]

Ahh I just had like an eargasm or something while listening to On Fire by Lightning Bolt.

Why aren't you on watch in the pit miss pit mod?

A spam thread slipped through your mod grasp for about an hour, and I had to give Relmar and Noonward Race 2 weeks each for spam.

Holy crap. I totally remember it. With the going back in time song with the pocket watch.

Living in a major city is awesome.

Living one hour from a major city is awesome because the excitement of wherever we go builds on the way there and on the way home we get to excitedly discuss what we did.

But it's not very often :(

[Liberi Fatali]

I can never get a straight answer when I come in here. :-/

Hey I just closed a thread, plus I knew the answer.

Thank god the plays over.

[YDload]

I finished buying CDs for my brothers for Christmas. The first one likes The Fall of Troy but doesn't have a way to get their self-titled album, so I got him that. The second one is one of those kids who would sit in Guitar Center and fumble through the intro to Stairway all day, so I got him a Cream greatest hits album.

I got Fragile and Zen Arcade for myself :)

[Zmev]

The NiN Fragile or some other Fragile?

[YDload]

The good fragile, with Roundabout and such :)

[Zmev]

But the Nine Inch Nails one has about 5 good songs spread out on 2 cds.

[YDload]

I don't like Nine Inch Nails.

[I Was A Kaleidoscope]

The Beck remix album of Guero [Guerolito] is so so much better than Guero.

[RedMorningLight]

Wow I haven't posted on MX in so long, well I figured I'd post this little question here as alt/indie people seem to have the most open taste. Can anyone recommend me any new bands/artists along the lines of the following, funky/punky/rock, style similar to incubus in azwethinkweiz, are you in?, sink beneath the line, stellar etc, fun, beachy, summery music? I probabally sound a bit crazy and wont get any response, thanks in advance!! Im pretty open so as long as they kinda fit i'll give it a try.

You signed up in August.

That gives you a max. of about two months of not posting.

Don't lie, tool.

It's always Christmas in Sweden.

Incredible show, got an Oasis setlist as well.

:eek: Me too!

[biografiend]

I have two mixtapes to make for Christmas. One of them is for the boy, and I'm thinkng will be another post-rock eargasm mix or just some nice acoustic stuff, and the other one is for one of my friends who is alot more hip than I and said that he would make me a mix. I feel somewhat intimidated by the last mix. I think it will be challenging.

[Zappa]

Mixes are always hard. That's why I never make them.

[biografiend]

They're usually pretty hard for me to make, too. I associate music and songs with colors and sometimes textures, and when I make mixtapes, the some songs can't be by others because the colors are to different and don't blend together (a song that is red can't be by blue, but is okay by purple and green). I'm in the mood to make a few though, and they are cheaper and more personal gifts.

I feel like a wierdo.

[EightMilesHigh]

:eek: Me too!

I was just looking around on imdb and I saw a link for it. I realized I hadn't seen it since....a long time.

I have to make a mixtape for a kid with downs syndrome. This should be interesting.

np: Buzzcocks - Orgasm Addict

[JonM]

Oh man, I'm totally gonna make people mixes! I haven't done that in years, but it really is such a good present! Many thanks for the inspiration and whatnot.

[Zappa]

Maybe it's time to pull this trick myself. I haven't given Christmas gifts much in the past.

[EightMilesHigh]

I have no clue what I want for Christmas. I got pretty much everything I wanted for my birthday a few weeks ago.

np: Gary Jules - Mad World. I hate to get all "omfgDonnieDarko" on you, but I like this song.

[Zappa]

My gift requests this year were a South African thumb-piano (Kalimba) and a DD-6 Digital delay pedal.

I love the whole Donnie Darko score. Michael Andrews is great.

[JonM]

I have the DD-6. It got me through my Korn/Limp Bizkit days, that's for sure. I haven't used it in about four years, but I have it at school with
me.

Yeah, I talked about Limp Bizkit again. I think I better change my avatar.

I want to use it for looping keyboard lines for solo performance.

[JonM]

It's excellent for that. The "hold" feature is clutch.

[Zappa]

Yay, I made a good decision.

[EightMilesHigh]

I'm glad you're over your Limp Bizkit phase, JonM. What would come next? An ICP avatar? :eek:

np: Modest Mouse - Float On

[JonM]

I ****ing hate ICP, I always have, and I always will.

[Wanker]

Good. It should always be that way.


On a side note, alchi-balls suck.

[JonM]

What are those?

[Zmev]

Can't be any worse than the huge rash on my leg.
