[Double Bass Jim]

[Futuro]

Yea I did, I messed around with it. hows about given me those extra 20,000 you have just "laying around" :)

[Seafroggys]

Completly off the topic discussion, but....

You guys should check out the game Hardwar. Its an older game that you can download for free off The Underdogs, but my brother and I are having a ball playing it.

[Josiah]

Hey... monday is free money day! Yes!


And be sure to vote for Walkin in '08!

[-TheGlassPrison-]

No new cymbal tonight.:(

[styler]

lol thats the sucks TGP, its my bday in a few days, mother came across some money a few days weeks ago through a divorce. so. im getting a small tom, floor tom, my choice of cymbals stands and etc. im thinkin paiste rude, noise works, and maybe a sabian paragon or two. and when i say money, i mean lots..so theres really not many boundaries...lol this question is kind of odd...but if you had a large amount of money what would you buy?drumwise

[The Fiction We Live]

Paiste Signatures.. no question.


oooo and maybe some new stands and a couple of snares... there's endless amount of stuff I would buy... :chug:

[Epiphender]

I've got a bit of a ride fetish so I'd probably get the Sabian 22" Manhattan and maybe the AAX dry ride. I'd also get myself a larger crash but I haven't got any in mind, and the 17" or 19" Sabian devastation chinese.

There's quite a few things I could blow money on haha. But if I had some extra I'd sooner spend it on some nice stompboxes for my guitar.

[-TheGlassPrison-]

But i did get 5 cool posters and a Rush Special Edition October 1st, 1992 shirt:)
Which is cool

[spike9908]

Hey... monday is free money day! Yes!


And be sure to vote for Walkin in '08!

No not today I didn't have time haha. I went to get a new suit from Jos. A Banks today and then went to best buy to look at mp3 players. Next I went for my hour long drum lesson. Then I went to dinner with my sister for her 19th birthday. After dinner I went to a late pick-up hockey game with a couple friends... the day was gone before I knew it! So I'm gonna do it tomorrow when I wake up.

Jim gettin any ideas??? :naughty:

[Half Life]

Haha, nice. Jim could probably have those guys running for the hills though, being(as I said before)the freaking mountain man he is :rolleyes:

[Win A Rabbit]

man, i went shopping today and i got my dixon pencils. i made a big scene until we found the dixon pencils. dixon is by far the best pencil company out there. there's just no comparison. :lol:

then we went to some lady's clothes stores, and they modeled some jeans for me... :naughty: then i did the hitler leg walk for about an hour, it was quite fun. then i actually caused one mom to leave the store with her kid because i was talking about how i could take the bottoms of a bikini, turn them around, and totally fit my package in there while making it seem like a thong bikini. (that was inspired by them daring me to try it on) i saw people i knew at every store we went to. "last day before school" shopping is insane.

and other than that, we were about to drink tonight, i don't know why, but it would have been fun, but then it started pouring rain, and we didn't wanna hang around town looking for a boot. so we gave up and watched tv with my friend's mom, and talked about things such as "dominatrixes, bondage, and breast lumps" you get the picture. so now i'm waiting for myself to get tired.

and then i think i'm going to tell my friends i'm quitting the band tomorrow, because all it is now is an after school thing, and no one put any effort in all summer break. we got together no more than 5 times, and no one improved on anything.

[Ill Mitch]

Sic, your posts in this thread all always freaking long. Anyway, it sucks your quitting the band, bands are always fun.

[Win A Rabbit]

i like long posts, i like to sum everything in one post. oh well.

well i wouldn't really say i'm quitting, i'm just going to tell them that i'm fed up, and if they don't want to dedicate some of their time to it, then don't bother keeping your amps at my house. it's a 99% chance that they'll wake up and realize that they need to improve, but if not, hopefully they can see the difference between "bandmates" and "friends" and realize that i don't hate them.

I got these thick *** "ENCORE" pencils, they're twice as thick as any regular pencil, they go in the big hole of the pencil sharpeners. If you're ever wondering, "Hey, why is this big hole here in my pencil sharpener for, it's far to big for my pencil?" You now know. The lead is really thick too and NEVER wears down, it's really thick and dark lead. So good.

[Half Life]

Pencils suck. I prefer a good ol' ink pen :cool:

EDIT: Oh wow, MF just contacted me and told me they'd replace my faulty 12" Coated G2(it came with an indentation and worn patch on the coating)for free! Haha awesome, that just made my night. MF is such a great site. I love those guys :D

[Seafroggys]

Pencils are god.

But the mother of God are Sharpies. Those have saved my life plenty of times, and I'm not completly kidding when I said saved my life.

[Double Bass Jim]

Awww man nice!

Good customer service.

[Half Life]

Yeah, aint that the truth Jim. I wrote the guy back a thank you reply and he emailed me back like 5 minutes later(apparently he's having a slow night :lol: )saying he was once a customer that now worked there and said he treats people how he likes to be treated :cool:

[PowerStamp]

Evergreen Terrace was killer tonight.
Andrew (singer) said they thought my band's CD was badass, and I told him we're playing 2 shows at El Torreon soon and are keeping their song "No Donnie These Men are Nihilists" in our set, he said I should record it and send it out to them.
:D

[Double Bass Jim]

Thats great to hear, I love hearin about stuff like that.

EDIT: To HL

[-TheGlassPrison-]

ok how the hell did this get on the 2nd page?

And sic... ahahahahahahahahaha

[Drum Phil]

what would i rather do? Drum every weekday and keep my kit or Work every weekday and buy a new kit?

[-TheGlassPrison-]

how long do you have to work?

[-Obscurity-]

what would i rather do? Drum every weekday and keep my kit or Work every weekday and buy a new kit?

Rob a bank, then buy a new kit AND drum every weekday. Or get 30 years in prison. It's a gamble.

[Drum Phil]

:lol: I spose i better work and pay my rent.... :upset:

[Voodoo Rabbit]

A pretty big gamble, methinks...

Ugh, I am SO tired...
But I can't go to sleep because there is a man coming to the house to drop off some vegtables and I have to pay him...
I am going to go play 'Morrowind', Or Phone someone...


Also - Sabian cymbals - AAX Studio or Stage Hi-Hats?...

[Drum Phil]

HHX Power hats :D

[-TheGlassPrison-]

Paragons:D

[Drum Phil]

BAH! Theres a stoopid storm! I HATE THUNDER

[Voodoo Rabbit]

I'm not made of money!...

Oh, but an HHX 21" Groove Ride would be nice...

*I think we're about to have a Storm here...It's been REALLY cloudy, like, all day...and it's very Stuffy and Humid outside...*

[-TheGlassPrison-]

IF theres thunder, you MIGHT wanna shut down your computers... you dont want a power surge to **** up your computer.

[-TheGlassPrison-]

Sic Talk To Me On Msn! I Forget Your Email And I Have So Many People I Dont Know Who You Are:(:(:(

[Voodoo Rabbit]

So, the Vegtable delivering man came and went, so I can go to sleep...
Thank god...

But not before a quick drum practice...And something to eat...

[spike9908]

IF theres thunder, you MIGHT wanna shut down your computers... you dont want a power surge to **** up your computer.

i only do that when it gets really bad.

i think i might be getting whats left of that hurricane today, its been really windy since last night, and i though it was going to rain really bad, but like, nothing happend.

[Drum Phil]

IF theres thunder, you MIGHT wanna shut down your computers... you dont want a power surge to **** up your computer.

[Voodoo Rabbit]

PunkLoserKid - That's what the weather has been like here, although it's stuck around all day...

[Drum Phil]

:lol: Haven't you kids ever heard of mechanical pencils?? :lol:

[Voodoo Rabbit]

^The ones that break and then you can't get any lead out of them?...

So damn annoying...

[KWG]

nono its all about the "magnum" its a sharpy thats tip is an inch wide

[xgretschx]

^ hell yeh man. best one ever. but the thing about sharpies is they bleed through everwhere. that's why i like these mechanical pencils that you twist the top and the led comes out. but you can only use them once but there my favorite pencils.

[spike9908]

every mechanical pencil i have ever used ended up breaking. i have caluses(sp) on my fingers though, so wood pencils dont bother me unless i use them for like an hour straight which wont happen because periods are only 50 min. long and my english class is split with lunch in between.

[Voodoo Rabbit]

Hah ^ Class only lasts for 40 minutes for me...
Unless it's a double period, or a triple...

[KWG]

ours are at least an hour, double block is before and after lunch so 2 hours

[spike9908]

Hah ^ Class only lasts for 40 minutes for me...
Unless it's a double period, or a triple...

how many periods do you have a day. we have 7. i already have my grad project all figured out. im going to order drum shells and lugs and stuff, and put it together. its that easy. i dont even have to do it right, just take 20 pics. of it and do a 3-5 page report or something

[Voodoo Rabbit]

how many periods do you have a day.


Eight...


Period 1
Period 2
Period 3

-Break-

Period 4

[Futuro]

[KWG]

[Voodoo Rabbit]

^

School starts at 'Registration' - 8.55AM
School Finishes at 3.40 PM

First period is at 9.10 (am)...

*If that made sense*

[KWG]

hmm we have 5 periods, starts at 8:30 ends at 3:04 except fridays which start at 9:30 and get out round 2:20

[Voodoo Rabbit]

When I was in Primary School in Edinburgh, we used to get out at 12PM on a Friday...

Ahh, Good times...

[Epiphender]

^The ones that break and then you can't get any lead out of them?...

So damn annoying...

Haha you're incompetent.

Get the ones that take .9mm leads then. Not about to translate for you American folk but they're thick leads.

[Voodoo Rabbit]

No, I mean when they break and you can't move the twist-y thing around, meaning you can't move the lead up or down...

Yeah - Thanks for calling me Incompetent...

[The Fiction We Live]

Haha you're incompetent.

Get the ones that take .9mm leads then. Not about to translate for you American folk but they're thick leads.

We use .5mm, .7mm, and .9mm measurements thank you very much!

[Epiphender]

Haha sorry about that Voodoo. No get the ones that click then.

[Voodoo Rabbit]

:p...
I prefer pens anyway...

[xgretschx]

i got to start eating food period.....voodoo when do you start/finish school?

me to i havent eaten since yesterday's breakfast and im not hungry.

voodoo you get a break?!! what grade are you in?!

[Voodoo Rabbit]

I don't know about grades, I'm from the UK...

S5, or 5th year of high school...

[gastery6]

I only go to highschool for 4 years. So far I have completed one

[MapleX]

How old r u Voodoo?

[KWG]

he,she,it is in grade 12 then i believe......i get a break too, its only 15 mins..pfft thats how long it takes to get from one building to the other grab your **** then come back..usually we get 5 mins inbetween classes which makes people on the third floor of one building who have to get to the third on the other really late

[spike9908]

i never understood why some schools have multipul 3 floor buildings. why not just make one big 3 floor building. it would save so much space.

[poppinfresh]

they probably built one and then ealized that they had more students.

[stabbinspaghetti]

hah i know schools like that, its pointless, mine is just one big three story school though

http://www.musiciansfriend.com/srs7/g=home/search/detail/base_pid/443719/

there what do you think, no one will answer in the gear and media, im leaning toward these, since they are free rides and cheap

fiona apple-sleep to dream

[Plan B.]

:lol: Haven't you kids ever heard of mechanical pencils?? :lol:

Are you kidding me?! Those are worse than pens!

When I see people using then in class I go right up to their desk and BREAK THEM, right infront of them.

[Josiah]

It's all about the use of pens.


When you guys get to college, you'll learn. Pen on everything. Blue or Black.

Then you can have a cool pen collection and use a different rad pen every day.


I'm so academia, I work at a highschool school and go to college. Though I get hit on a lot at the highschool, always good for the ego.

[KWG]

they probably built one and then ealized that they had more students.

one used to be the junior high and the other the senior...then they joined them together so everybody shaers each building which is good becasue one has the good gym,autoshop/ tech rooms,science wing and the other has the theater, music, art and english/socials type stuff

yep. professors wont accept work if its in pencil. only in pen. i broke out of using pencils my soph year in highschool. i hate pencils now. i dont even jot down a single note in pencil...it has to be pen.

[KWG]

but with pencil you have so much more controll!!!!

[Epiphender]

Haven't you guys handed anything in to your math teacher before? They won't even look at it if it's in pen.

[poppinfresh]

haha even when i use pencil i cross everything out, it doesnt matter anymore.

[KWG]

yea and when using scantron test dealy things you can only use pencil cause the machine won't read pen........plus you can draw better pictures with pencil!!!

[TheClash6412]

those scantrons piss me off

[Double Bass Jim]

You guys know that trick with mechanical pencils?

You put a little bit of the lead out and put your thumbnail right on it with some pressure, I used to shoot those things into peoples necks in class all the time :lol:

[The Fiction We Live]

Hahahahaha I see you sitting in the back of a classroom right now being 22 and shooting lead at kid's necks. :lol:

Teacher: "Double Bass Jim WHAT DID I TELL YOU?!?! GET OUT NOW!"

[TTTSNB]

Haven't you guys handed anything in to your math teacher before? They won't even look at it if it's in pen.
Yeah its pretty retarded. Same with the proffesser thing.

[TheClash6412]

my teacher last year accepted pen, that was nice

[The Fiction We Live]

haha even when i use pencil i cross everything out, it doesnt matter anymore.

Same... my english teacher stopped giving out papers that could be hand written last year... but it gave me more time to do it so it helped us more than it hurt.

[The Fiction We Live]

yea and when using scantron test dealy things you can only use pencil cause the machine won't read pen........plus you can draw better pictures with pencil!!!

You can actually use pen for ours... the whole pencil thing is BS... we tested it last year.

Bwahahaha, I just end up picking off bits of eraser and throwing it at people.

[TheClash6412]

yea me too

[Seafroggys]

Mechanical Pencils are my favorite personally. My main one is one I've had for 12 years!

[The Fiction We Live]

I love mechanical pencils.. regular ones suck... all that sharpening.

Does anyone else write in all caps?? Like this:

DREAM THEARTER - ENDLESS SACRIFICE

[poppinfresh]

You guys know that trick with mechanical pencils?

You put a little bit of the lead out and put your thumbnail right on it with some pressure, I used to shoot those things into peoples necks in class all the time :lol:
theres also that bic pencil thing. If you take off the ends where the lead comes out theres that little thing that pushes the lead out. You take that open it up by pushing on the top end then you put a half folded staple in it and that jams the thing so to shoot you just pull on the clicky part on the end. we used to do that to peoples legs, its painful thoguh and a little dangerous.

[KWG]

no no, the best pencils are the mars lunagraphic (blue with black on the top) drafting pencils, i've had 1 for three years and its still half its original size.

[stabbinspaghetti]

well thanks everyone for answering my question, as if i didnt already have a bad day

[KWG]

whooa wait a min, someone has to inform me step by step on how to shoot this lead, i got to get those bastards that i hate

[The Fiction We Live]

well thanks everyone for answering my question, as if i didnt already have a bad day

I know nothing about bongos... sorry. The reviews are good though. 3 people liked them a lot...

[Double Bass Jim]

Hahahahaha I see you sitting in the back of a classroom right now being 22 and shooting lead at kid's necks. :lol:

Yeah, they're German made.

[stabbinspaghetti]

I know nothing about bongos... sorry.

thanks for trying

[TheClash6412]

get some lp's

[stabbinspaghetti]

well, be more specific, i want them to be around the 100 or less range

[Plan B.]

Are you not going into a store to try them out anyway?

[TheClash6412]

[stabbinspaghetti]

my local stores dont have like any percussion, drums yes, percussion no

[KWG]

i could get away with anything last year. no one thought i was a bad kid cause i was in all the advanced classes. hell, people thought it was strange when i told a dirty joke. apparentally im not the kind of person who tells dirty jokes.

[TheClash6412]

**** I gotta call up for jury duty monday :(

If they happen to pull my number I know just how to get out of it, in a 100% honest way too.

[poppinfresh]

how? i must know.

[Double Bass Jim]

Well if you know anything about the judicial system you'll know it's FULLA crap, more often then not tons of vital evidence is withheld that could convict the criminal. The system caters to the criminal by doing so.

And if I get that far into the pick thats exactly what im going to say.

[The Fiction We Live]

Or just keep telling them your name is Double Bass Jim... you'll get thrown out in no time!

"Sir... what is your real name?!"
"DOUBLE BASS JIM!!! WOO!"

[Double Bass Jim]

Hahahaha

[The Fiction We Live]

My dad loves jury duty. He's been twice. It is interesting dinner table conversation.

[styler]

lol sounds interesting

"hey dad how was your day??"
"oh nothing son..had jury duty...put a guy on death row..guy at work that was covering for me a is a wad..im gonna have loads of work when i go back on monday, how bout you?"
"oh nothing"

[Win A Rabbit]

well i had my first day of grade 12 today... it didn't hit me that i was back in school for another 8 months or whatever until about 5 minutes into first class, right between the time she read out the "student expectations" and the "student guidelines" out of the agendas that are mandatory to buy ($8) and no one uses them.

but luckily, my english class will be amazingly easy. last year, the english 20-2 (the lowest english class) got divided up into the smarter half and the dumber half, and i was in the smart half. the dumb half would watch episodes of family guy and seinfeld, and write about the plot, irony, etc. instead of reading books/stories. so now i'm in the stupid half this year, and we convinced the teacher (brand new to the school) that we'd actually pay attention to family guy and seinfeld, because obviously someone in the stupidest 1/20th of grade 12 english doesn't want to read some boring a'ss short stories.

then my social class, i have a teacher that has acid flashbacks. picture mr. fargas from family guy, with one of those crazy mustaches a few pages back. he told us, and i quote, "i'm not going to candy-coat this, because then you could eat it for dessert, but social studies should not be eaten for dessert, because it is a course, not a dessert. so i'm not going to candy coat this: this class (social 33, also the lowest class) is (start slowing words down) designed... for... people... like... you... to... be... able... to... pass... ittttttttttt." i probably missed a few words in there, but that was what i remember from it, the best i can remember the wording.

[The Fiction We Live]

Freshman year my english teacher had acid flashbacks... we came back from lunch one day to find her huddling under her desk.

[KWG]

it seems like all english teachers are somewhat insane

[The Fiction We Live]

Yeah... I'll get into it tomorrow cause I'm going to bed but my 10th grade english teacher was nuts too...

Small YAY for 700th post

[Voodoo Rabbit]

i never understood why some schools have multipul 3 floor buildings. why not just make one big 3 floor building. it would save so much space.


We've got a three-storey building...
But I doin't have to even go up one flight of stairs anymore, as nearly all my classes are in the other building...

How old r u Voodoo?


Nosey Nosey... :p ...

[Double Bass Jim]

Hahahahaha ^

Good ole brasco.

[PowerStamp]

hm
I'm lost.

Anyways.
Is anybody else very pissed off about the new style of popups and ****?

The new popups that appear ON your browser page and follow it down?! And what about the commercials on the internet, like the one that just started playing at the top of this page.
RIDICULOUS.


Anyways, last night Gamespot.com listed Grand Theft Auto: Liberty City Stories as coming out on PSP tomorrow (today..the 1st) which surprised me, but then today (yesterday, 31st) they relisted it to the end of October lol

[Double Bass Jim]

Donnie brasco man.

Great movie.

[spike9908]

but luckily, my english class will be amazingly easy. last year, the english 20-2 (the lowest english class)...

seeing as were talking about teachers, my history teacher is the most hated teacher in the school. he is seriously dumber than a retarded monkey (thats probably why he teaches history). he talks in the 3rd person half the time, and says he was in everything you learn about(civil war, WW1/2, etc.).


and anyone who wants to see a weird movie, go get "donnie darko". the weirdest movie i have ever seen, but it was pretty good.

"tell me, how does one suck a ****"

strangest line i have ever heard in a movie.

[Josiah]

Donnie Darko is rad.. one of my favorite movies.

The whole Smurf speech is awesome, and true. Great lines form the movie..

"Donnie Darko? What the hell kind of name is that? It's like some sort
of superhero or something."
"What makes you think I'm not?


Now you have to figure it out.

http://www.donniedarko.com/


Oh it's the first day of school. This should be much fun.. I haven't been to highschool in years.

[Voodoo Rabbit]

^ Donnie Darko is awfully boring if you've watched it more than once...

*Although, that website was fun...*

[Chris]

Donnie Darko is rad.. one of my favorite movies.

The whole Smurf speech is awesome, and true. Great lines form the movie..

Sean Smith: Beer and *****. That's all I need.
Ronald Fisher: We gotta find ourselves a Smurfette.
Sean Smith: Smurfette?
Ronald Fisher: Yeah, not some tight-*** Middlesex chick, right? Like this cute little blonde that will get down and dirty with the guys. Like Smurfette does.
Donnie: Smurfette doesn't f**k.
Ronald Fisher: That's bull****. Smurfette ****s all the other Smurfs. Why do you think Papa Smurf made her? Because all the other Smurfs were getting too horny.
Sean Smith: No, no, no, not Vanity. I heard he was a homosexual.
Ronald Fisher: Okay, then, you know what? She ****s them and Vanity watches. Okay?
Sean Smith: What about Papa Smurf? I mean, he must get in on all the action.
Ronald Fisher: Yeah, what he does, he films the gang-bang, and he beats off to the tape.
Donnie: [shouts] First of all, Papa Smurf didn't create Smurfette. Gargamel did. She was sent in as Gargamel's evil spy with the intention of destroying the Smurf village. But the overwhelming goodness of the Smurf way of life transformed her. And as for the whole gang-bang scenario, well, it just couldn't happen. Smurfs are asexual. They don't even have... reproductive organs under those tiny, white pants. It's just so illogical, about being a Smurf, you know? I mean, what's the point of living... if you don't have a dick?
Sean Smith: [pause] Dammit, Donnie. Why you gotta get all smart on us?
:lol:

It is one of my favorate films.

[Voodoo Rabbit]

The website is awesome...

Go to it now!...

[Chris]

The website is awesome...

Hey what's up everyone.

What are people up to tonight?

[Jbdrummin4u]

Freshman football game just got done. YOu?

[poppinfresh]

i just found out that steve gadd is coming in october.

[billdrum]

He's doing another clinic tour?

[Juicy_Forlorn]

Hmm I have just returned from my first soccer practice, and I now have a HUGE blister from my stupid new cleats. It totally sucks. And also I had a dentist appointment today, and despite all my best efforts of brushing and flossing everyday, I still had a cavity. I have to go get a filling next month after harvest is done. :upset:

But surprisingly, I'm actually in not too bad of a mood. I had jazz band practice today, and I also rehearsed with my "band", which actually just consists of me and my keyboardist friend. I was in quite a drummish mood today.

So anyway, how is everyone else?

[poppinfresh]

you need jomas.

my friend got a blister about a quarter of his foot. so he sewed an upside down black cross in it it was pretty gross.

[billdrum]

I just visited Gadd's website. He's doing a west coast tour including Colorado, Arizona, Utah, California, and Washington. He'll also be at PASIC in Columbus in November.

[Jbdrummin4u]

He'll also be at PASIC in Columbus in November.
I am soooo going.

[Double Bass Jim]

I did somthin different today, I actually shaved most of my beard! It's been about 2 years since i've done so.

[Double Bass Jim]

Haha im sure I live in Indiana! :lol:

[GhostGrooveMike]

I don't man. I think I went to your barbeque.

[Win A Rabbit]

i feel terrible. i was laying down while my band was trying to write a song, then when i got up i got a huge head rush, and since then i've had the worst headache. i tried to take some advil to get rid of some of it, but it did nothing for the headache and instead, just made me feel sick. now i'm talking to one of my friends who's turned super christian, and she's trying to push her beliefs on me hardcore, i think it's about time to shut her up. i can't stand people who force their ideas on you.

[GhostGrooveMike]

Haha. I hate those people too

Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus,

[Win A Rabbit]

wow i shut her up quickly. she was forcing it on me, then i asked her if she wanted to hear my views on it all. she said she didn't even want to bother because she knew she was right, and nothing could change that. i told her i had no intentions on changing her beliefs, but i wanted to change her urge to tell everyone how to live. not wanting to force anything on her, i asked her multiple times to listen to my side, and finally she agreed. i told her the first of many parts of my side, and she comes up with "stop right now. i have to do bio notes and i'm really tired so i think i'm going to bed right away. i can't talk now." :lol: i love doing that.

[Seafroggys]

Heh. You know how to shut her up?

Make that unicorn shirt and wear it.

Actually, come to think of it, that'll make it worse :lol:

[Win A Rabbit]

i would kill for a unicorn shirt like this.

[Massik Kretal]

Dam New Orleans is a disaster.....

Its sad....

[Double Bass Jim]

Yea no kiddin, pretty unreal situation down there.

[xgretschx]

^ jim you should not trim your beard for months then take a pic and show us whens it hudge

[rockindrummer]

That'd be sweet.

I agree with whoever said that they wouldn't want to run into you in a dark alley, man your huge and have a sweet beard :thumb:

[Double Bass Jim]

Hahah thanks man. :thumb:

[rockindrummer]

any time for the jimster. :cool:

[Jezen]

Hi guys. Im in Roma :D

Going home tonight too.

[Drum Phil]

BB... Gear & Media..... My hardware thread.... your opinion is need :thumb:

[spike9908]

Yea no kiddin, pretty unreal situation down there.

yeah, its pretty bad down there. the one thing that bugs me about it is that every time you turn on the news you hear the same thing as the day before. and my parents are insistant on watching it because they like to talk about how bad of a job they are doing on getting them out of the city. its really annoying.

EDIT:what is everyone paying for gas now? in the past week our prices have gone up like $.70 to $3.20 a gallon. its getting out of control.

[GhostGrooveMike]

Why is this on the second page. This posy will bring it back!

[Voodoo Rabbit]

^ I was thinking that as well, but didn't want to post.

Well, I have been looking forward to coming home ALL DAY.
An evening of Drums and Movies lies ahead...

[Double Bass Jim]

Sounds like good times to me.

[Voodoo Rabbit]

Damn straight...

[gastery6]

What movies??

[GhostGrooveMike]

i still haven't 40 year old virgin what do you guys think of it

[Voodoo Rabbit]

^ Looks like another attempt by Media Bosses to try and increase the population and encourage people's thinking of Virginity as a 'Socially Unacceptable' thing...


What movies??


Probably some old Zombie movies.

I LOVE old horror movies. Plus I'll have a lot of time to kill.

[gastery6]

It seems as you do. Sounds like a funny night. Just make sure you dont run out of pop and popcorn/chip. I find that eating something during a movie makes it that much better

[Voodoo Rabbit]

Dude, I've eaten so much crap today, I'll probably be sitting there watching the movie eating a carrot.

[GhostGrooveMike]

How does everyone like my new avatar

[GhostGrooveMike]

Jack dejohnette is the man

[rockindrummer]

i still haven't 40 year old virgin what do you guys think of it

I heard that it was really funny, havn't seen it yet either though.

[Drum Phil]

I think i'll be watching American History X and Scum tonight. I bought a hi-hat tambourine today =D

[GhostGrooveMike]

Dam I want a hi-hat tambourine so bad. It's such a cool novelty

[billdrum]

That's something I've wanted to try as well. One of these days......

[-Obscurity-]

I have a mounted tambourine, it works out great. The thing about the hi-hat tambourines are you can't really stop them from going off everytime you use the hats.

[Drum Phil]

Then i take it off and mount it somewhere else

[GhostGrooveMike]

wait do you play punk? I don't see how how you could use that much in punk.

[rockindrummer]

You don't have to. You can take it off and when you play other things through it back on.

[Drum Phil]

Yes i play punk. But i like to spice things up. I always click my hats when im riding, so it goes on there and i can click the tamb instead of the hats. I like to use extra percussion and stuff.

[rockindrummer]

Extra percussion is sweet.

[red n black]

I believe it's called a jingle ring. JB used it alot.

[spike9908]

I believe it's called a jingle ring. JB used it alot.

ching ring, and yeah bonham used his all the time.

[red n black]

http://www.music123.com/LP-Cyclops-Jingle-Ring-i12031.music

You stand corrected.

[spike9908]

whatever.

[red n black]

whatever.

Scumbag.

[spike9908]

Scumbag.

why, because i dont care when someone corrects me. because i dont mind being wrong some of the time.

[red n black]

whatever.

[styler]

anybody hear of ayotte snares?thinkin of pickin one up soon..feedback?

[spike9908]

ayotte make amazing drums. they are very expensive, but if you have the money, it will be worth it.

[billdrum]

They're supposed to be top notch. Better have a good job!

[Win A Rabbit]

whoo hoo. 3 day weekend. and you know what that means... :lol: i love long weekends.

[Double Bass Jim]

Ahh man I got some good news finally, I didnt get picked for jury duty! Man im happy about that.

[poppinfresh]
