[QUOTE=Jimbobntnr;13564390]how can it [I]start [/I]at 1800 with [I]options[/I]? unless the options are free?[/QUOTE]

Well, options being 'you can choose from X, Y or Z for no additional charge' sort of thing.

I have a fatty bowl packed and ready to be smoked. I just don't want to go outside... but I will in a minute.

Yeah, I reread my post and realized that it wasn't as witty as it felt when I typed it.
nice bass.

Yeah, it is. I've been watching the Stambaugh thread over at TB for quite some time... he makes an astounding instrument.

YOU'RE TOO OLD TO GIG WHEN:



It becomes more important to find a place onstage for your box fan, than your amp.

You refuse to play out of tune.

Your gig clothes make you look like George Burns out for a round of golf.

Your fans have left by 10:30 p.m.

All you want from groupies is a foot massage.

Your after-show party is at the International House of Pancakes.

You love taking the elevator because you can sing along to most of your playlist.

You hire band members for their values instead of their talent.

Instead of a fifth member, your band wants to spring for a roadie.

You've lost the directions to the gig.

You need your glasses to see your amp settings.

You've thrown out your back jumping off the stage.

You're thrilled to have New Year's Eve off.

The waitress is your daughter.

You stop the set because your bottle of Ibuprofen fell behind the speakers

Most of your crowd just sways in their seats.

You find leftover drink tokens from last weekend's gig in your guitar case.

You no longer use a tip jar.

You refuse to play without earplugs.

You ask the club owner if you can start at 8:30 p.m. instead of 9:30 p.m.

You check the TV schedule before booking a gig.

Your gig stool has a back.

You're related to at least one other member of the band.

You need a nap before the gig.

You don't let anyone "sit in."

After the third set, you bug the club owner to let you quit early.

During the breaks, you now go to your van to lay down.

You prefer a music stand with a light.

You insist on having a contract.

You say you double on bass.

You can't remember lyrics you've been singing since the song first came out on vinyl

You don't recover until Tuesday afternoon.

I guess I'm too old to gig.

Az_Holl 11-03-2006 09:44 PM

"Your gig stool has a back."

This should be changed to:

"you have a gig stool"

Man, I thought I was bad, that drummer looks like he's going to explode.

I agree. I have one guitarist with a gig stool. wtf is that?

Az_Holl 11-03-2006 09:49 PM

Gig stools should only be used for acoustic sets imo

BenJammin 11-03-2006 09:49 PM

[QUOTE=Atomicant;13564446]Gig stools should only be used for acoustic sets imo[/QUOTE]

What about those of us who like to play sitting down?

Be a man, no one is going to buy your cds when youve got that attitude Mr.

The Brad 11-03-2006 09:52 PM

But Billy Sheehan's bass is called the attitude and lots of people own those?

I said "that attitude" not "an attitude"

An attitude is a very good thing to own.

I'm inclined to point out that it really depends on what kind of people you are trying to reach.


you made my point for me.

Sitting down is for pussies.

Being a spastic onstage ftw.

I am going to quit attempting humor.
I will take up painting squares like my homeboy Malevich.

Sh[b]i[/b]t, I could play your music and act like I was having a seizure onstage.

Jimbobntnr 11-03-2006 10:00 PM

brad, your humor is on. Where are you failing at it?

Az_Holl 11-03-2006 10:01 PM

Malevich can stick his suprematist sh[I]i[/I]t uo his arse hole.

Hi kids.

Ben, I posted your money today.

Pluperfect_Arson 11-03-2006 10:09 PM

[QUOTE=BenJammin;13564532]Or I'll just kill you and eat your body.[/QUOTE]

That is what Albert Fish did to Grace Budd.

Albert Fish was, clearly, one cool d00d.

[QUOTE=progmegood;13564536]Hi kids.

I kept a CD for you. :p

I've actually made $25 so far, not counting your incoming money and the money from another friend who's going to pay me on Monday.

Efrim 11-03-2006 10:14 PM

I sent you 7$. Keep the change. And a short letter I wrote in the car, so excuse the spinal-disorder writing.

$7? :amaze: :confused:

I love you, Jesse.

And hurrah for the note. I'm excited. And no worries about the handwriting. If you saw mine... bahaha. It's pretty bad. All of my high school teachers told me that instead of pursuing English, I should be a doctor.

Pffbt. A real man's song is Nick Cave's "O'Malley's Bar."

I'd upload it, but I doubt anyone would listen to it. It's fourteen and a half minutes long.
