[QUOTE=Permanent Solution]Well but the question is, if I'm coming into this band comprised of 2 friends, will I get enough musical say to make it worth sticking out? And how much can I change them from their influences?

I'm not always drunk Kif :([/QUOTE]
Fair enough. Being their friend is an advantage you should play, since it should be easier to say "How about we try blah blah blah", and you give your opinions on it. They may be taking you for granted if you are a better musician, but you can make them better too. Hopefully.

OK, you aren't drunk. Sorry Vince, islu

Haha, the kid said he has been playing guitar 9 years but I might be better than him just because of how much he has limited himself musically :-\ We'll see though, I doubt I've seen the extent of their abilities, they sure haven't seen mine. They don't keep good time though :-\ Guitarists are so bad about taking cues from drums about time.

I'd love to see Cobra just to hear them play "Hollaback Boy" and "Snakes On A Plane (Bring It)". I can't wait for their album.

Because guitarists are never satisfied with what they've written and are always trying to improve their music. Problem is they try to improve it in the middle playing the song, and it doesn't always work out.

And guitarists are forced to play so many boring songs that they get drowsy and offtime.

Jon you're such a fag :)

But when you're playing covers that first point doesn't work and the second is silly because they chose to play it. I had to play straight Punk beats to keep them even close to on :-\ So much for progressive drumming in a Punk setting :p

Or they continously go on playing retarded stuff trying to write a song, and 'cause the rest of the band to go insane. And not even a good insane, it's a bad one. Honestly, I've never met a guitarist that has the ability to just write something good, and not extremely long and boring.

Or it's just more difficult to keep time as a guitarist.

in my band i don't choose to play anything

because youre a dog perhaps

No.

Stew: I do it all the time :shifty:

Nick: Yes you do.

Psh, we play more than a few covers that I really have no desire to play. And even if the song is good doesn't mean it's not an increadibly boring song to play. I add some many octave chords and stuff to the Finch songs we play, and I harmonize a lot more than is supposed to be harmonized in Unholy Confessions.

Your drumming throws off rhythme. Anyone would get off time.

Eh, writing something that just sounds good is way too easy, and it's usually boring to play.

I usually don't write songs [I]with[/I] my band though. They're no help. plus I need more time than they have patience for to write a lead riff I'm satisfied with.

Guitar players think they're a gift from God.

When really, they arent.

[QUOTE=Permanent Solution]No.

actually, i don't

all of my ideas are rejected so i don't bother
