Berk 04-04-2006 04:34 PM

White 04-04-2006 05:02 PM

ummm My guess is BB, Ohil, Or jim. But who is it?????????????? hahah Im jk don't worry. congrats.

spirit 04-04-2006 05:10 PM

Thanks. I'm well cheesing.* I can just imagine Billy Ward tossing a load of hand percussion at the crowd and saying "Play along". He probably won't, but one can dream.


*Scottish colloquialism: I'm quite pleased.

White 04-04-2006 05:15 PM

ya. Not gonna happen haha

spirit 04-04-2006 05:20 PM

[QUOTE=White]ya. Not gonna happen haha[/QUOTE]

Actually, that's a more Dom Famularo thing to do.

"Try it for yourself, have fun with it!" :D

hey, guys who have made/know someone who's made an e-kit, how much (within $100) would it cost me to make a fairly low-budget e-kit. everything included.

me and my friends were talking about moving out, and since i'm most likely moving into a duplex with 4-5 other guys, i'm not going to have much time to play on my current kit.

so instead of investing in a new acoustic kit, i figure i might as well spend some money on making an e-kit (assuming it's a fair bit cheaper than buying one) and then buying a nice acoustic kit when i move into a different place.

Futuro 04-04-2006 05:26 PM

So I just called Gc and got a free pair of 5bs today.

Sequal to best selling novel "I broke a pair of 5Bs today"

You realise when they see the saw marks, they're not giving you free sticks, right?

It depends which way you want to go about it. There's different ways - Making it from scratch using shallow keller shells, converting an old kit, making one out of a practice pad kit, or even making one using mouse pads, etc.

Win A Rabbit 04-04-2006 05:45 PM

i was planning on going with practice pads or mouse pads. pretty much whatever i can get the lowest price on while still being quiet as possible.

i've been checking ebay though, and some of these are going for my price range anyways. i'll have to check a few of these out and get my dad to bid on them for me later tonight if all goes well.

White 04-04-2006 05:55 PM

Ya. could some one explain to me the steps in making an E-kit, im thinking about making one in the far future.

Ming-a-Ling 04-04-2006 06:09 PM

Well, I'm off to the Deadboy concert. All of my friends ditched me, and my babysitter cancelled on me so I'm going stag tonight. I'm pretty excited for it though. It'll be my first concert in like 3 years.

It's okay. I find going places by yourself is funner than with other people.

But all the kids at school laught at me when I said I went to see go Crash with my mum.

Or when I took the city bus by myself to the Mall and didn't meet anybody there.

Oh well. Have a grand old time, to whatever you're going to. A Concert it is. Well have fun at that. But didn't your babysitter cancel?

Janeway 04-04-2006 06:29 PM

What the hell?
Why does everyone always have to be pissed at me?!
I don't [U]do[/U] anything. I just want to be left alone, but noo.
We can't let Pespi be happy. Nope. We've got to nag and nag and nag and make her feel like a useless pile of congealed sh[B]i[/B]t every waking hour of the day!!!
God!
I'm so sick of everybody. I'm sick of crying. I'm sick of mumbling how much I hate myself everytime somebody treats me like an a[B]s[/B]shole. I'm sick of being under so much stress over stupid little things that I'm about to die.
Why can't I just sit by myself and play video games and finger myself all day?
Why?! It isn't hurting anything or anyone. I'm happy doing it! I enjoy it! So what the hell is wrong with me being happy?
What the f[B]u[/B]ck does it matter of society gets one more useless maggot? Sh[B]i[/B]t.








If she wants me to take the garbage out, why didn't she ASK ME?!
WHY IN GOD'S NAME WOULD YOU EXPECT ME TO PAY ATTENTION TO EVERYTHING YOU DO WHEN YOU'VE DONE NOTHING BUT SCREAM AT ME FOR THE LAST WEEK AND A HALF! I'm the f[B]u[/B]cking useless little rug muncher child. I don't even compare to the eldest GODDESS, do I?!
NOPE! WHY THE HELL CAN'T YOU JUST COME OUT AND SAY IT!
F[B]U[/B]CK!

We_Love_Lime 04-04-2006 06:30 PM

Hmmm...

I always thought your name was Pepsi.

Win A Rabbit 04-04-2006 06:31 PM

i did too, for the first year or so that i was here.

We_Love_Lime 04-04-2006 06:32 PM

Lol Yeah.

But she seems angry, Maybe we should ask her what's wrong?

Win A Rabbit 04-04-2006 06:35 PM

she just wants to masturbate. but hey, who doesn't?

Janeway 04-04-2006 06:35 PM

She's not even treating me like her daughter.
My stupid band teacher sent home a copy of the referral and theres a note at the bottom that said, "I spoke with *Pespi* and her parents on the night of 3/28 about her making up the lessons, and again I was treated with much disrespect" and my mother thinks that he's talking about her.
Yeah.
Okay mom. They're so going to send you a letter where they're scolding the child's parents.
It's not like I don't regret it. I do, actually, feel somewhat bad about the entire incident, but for some god forsaken reason, she just can't let it drop. She can't let me get over it and she's hell bent on making me feel like a misreble little peeon for the rest of the school year.
It's the FIRST day of the 4th quarter and she's already screaming at me about make up work and my grades. She's f[B]u[/B]cking lucky I just don't drop out...or drink a bottle of Drain-O. She likes to watch autopsies.
I'm sure she'd be overjoyed to get to look at me with my chest ripped open and my insides piles of semi-liquid-y mush.

We_Love_Lime 04-04-2006 06:37 PM

[QUOTE=sic]she just wants to masturbate. but hey, who doesn't?[/QUOTE]

I don't. It hurts.

Win A Rabbit 04-04-2006 06:39 PM

my cousin drank something similar to drain-o once. they rushed him to the hospital and he was in there for a long long time. he was like 5 at the time.
