the cockbook is badass...


ooops

yeah...I started at the beginning on the easy ones... I'm trying to get each one down before moving to the next.

I have a marching snare (got it for free, the ex-friend who "lent" it to me forgot about it and moved away. That or she hated me enough that she didn't want to call me up to ask for her older brother's snare drum back. I'd say both situations are equally likely.), but I can't get it to sound like a normal marching snare. Just like a really deep snare drum.

I don't really play on it alot. I use it more as a riser to put my pad on when I practice standing up.

marching heads, gotta crank em good.

have you ever played marching bongos?

Yay, I love my brother. I wanted so badly to go to a boxing day party before I leave during the holidays, and now my brother says he wants to have one here. This is excellent, because it's like I'm having a party, and I don't have to drive anywhere, but he has all the responsibility :cool:.

Probably no one but canadians knows what the hell boxing day is.

I'm sad though, because a friend I haven't seen in a while, who is so fun to party with and just generally awesome, can't come :upset:. I wanna party with him :(

It's got some real old marching heads on it (he played this back in the early 90's, so they've been on a good 10 years), and I tried cranking them once before. It was a really dead sound, but not the kind of dead that proper marchign snare drums have. More of a "pushing your whole palm into a rack tom and hitting it" kind of dead. Just a "ploonk" kind of sound.

I love onomatopeia.


Oh god. James Brown is coming to town on the 9th. But tickets start at $49.50 + service charges, and it's probably sold out. :(

hmm ya why not sploodge for some marching heads?

I've been half-a[size=2]ss[/size]edly looking for some, but the main store I go to doesn't carry them and I hate asking my parents to drive me way out to the only store that actually has SOME drum stuff. If I ever go out there again, I'll probably pick some up, assuming they're not too expensive.


Do you think a dollar store would sell a little kit that teaches you how to knit? I'm going to be around town tomorrow, I may stop in to see if they've got anything. I want to learn how to knit, but I don't want to have to find a guide on the internet and sit in this chair learning.

Knitting :rolleyes:
I here it passes time well.

I want a clarinet...


Yeah. I'll probably have enough to buy one after christmas.


I kind of want a soprano sax too, but they sound very similar. Clarinets are a little less nasal-y.

I want a tenor sax. Really badly.

I have all these solos and melodies in my head...but I don't have the proper instrument to play them on. They are sax solos. Not piano solos, not drum solos, and definitely not harp solos.

And plus saxes are just so cool.

Mmm...Mmmmm.....


What's that?

A Selmer Reference 36?

THE tenor sax to end all tenor saxes?




And what else?! An Ottolink STM to boot?

AND Vandoren Java 3.5's?!



If only I wasn't the only one who cared.

So smooth

Omg no fair, I want it :upset:

It looks so nice...
But I dont know how to play sax.
But it looks so nice...

Yeah. It only cost me $3,500 too.

:amaze:

Yeah, well my harp is worth $6000 >_>


Except I only rent it :upset:

My teacher has one that's worth $80 000.

$80k?

Jesus.


Christ.

Yep, its a huge gold plated pedal harp.
It sits in the studio where I have my lessons, and I really want to play it, but somehow I doubt I'd be allowed to.

I'm pretty sure she's extremely rich. Her husband apparantly belongs to a yacht club too.

It just sits in a studio? =/

Well she plays it, I just meant it's always sitting there when I have my lesson. She has a whole crapload of harps there actually.

She plays the big one mostly with a symphony orchestra though.

Harp is such a nice instrument.

You know? I play a pretty bitchin bong.

whats smokin' jos?

I'm a master of the skin-flute.

So the dog just took a **** in my bedroom.
There is no way im cleaning it up.

Are you going to step around it all day?

My friend's dog laid a nice log right in the middle of his little sister's pillow once. Was one of the funniest things I had ever seen.

the one in black with all the metal on her mouth is pretty hot IMO

My pornos still have an hour to go.


I'm tired as sin, though.
