[QUOTE=JonG]I play guitar. I used to play saxophone. It got boring quick.[/QUOTE]

I wanna learn alto sax simply to learn the Taxi Driver theme.

[QUOTE=PinkFreud]i was. not anymore, i quit and we went to college. i DID jam with magicbus a couple weeks ago though.[/QUOTE]
That's pretty sweet, how was the Jam?

I'm in a band, I don't know what will happen when we're finished highschool in a year an a half but I think most of us will be sticking around here for another year so we'll see.

That'd be pretty sweet jamming with someone in this thread :p

np: Death Cab for Cutie - Title and Registration

Only song I've heard by them. I like it.

Imagine an mx classic rock band!

I play guitar, bass, and ukulele sometimes. In my band, we doubletrack a lot of stuff, because I'm better at bass than our bassist, and so I write most of the bass riffs.

I want to hear some of your guys' bands' original material.

Ask the user Fnnrqwin next time he's around. (That is, if he's ever around) We've basically recorded every session we've done so he has tons of mp3s of jams and songs. We're trying to piece together our first LP right now. (That's right, we don't bother with that EP sissy crap) I'll tell him to upload our cover of Knockin' On Heaven's Door next time he's online. It's pretty cool.

I'd be down for this. You know what the FF thread regulars are doing with their band, basically recording layers in Audacity and then sending it to each other? I think we can do this if enough people have a mic. We could submit it for the cover contest as "The CR thread regulars"!

I'm a beginner guitarist, so it's gonna be a while before I can play any classic rock songs. Only song I know so far is "Malaguena Rhumba" and that was from my instruction booklet.

[QUOTE=HazMan]Yeah i think they are amazing. Their guitarist often plays the strangest riffs as well. Flamenco influenced or something.[/QUOTE]
Listen to Spanish Caravan. That's flamenco. Krieger was fond of it.

Cool.

That would be pretty sweet, too bad I don't have the equipment it would require :(

[QUOTE=PinkFreud]no, we live somewhat close to ech other though.[/QUOTE]

Hmm... what part of Michigan do you live at?

/carries on from last page...

I play guitar and viola. I can also play bass and drums, but I dont those instruments. I [I]really[/I] wanna learn keyboard someday...

I play guitar, keyboards, and cello :)

I play guitar and I'm getting used to playin' bass.

I haven't even tried rounding up a band though. Drummers are almost impossible to find, everyone plays guitar...

I play guitar, and I am pretty good at bass although I don't actually have a bass at my house. I also played piano for several years, I still mess around on the organ a lot but it's mostly experimental stuff. I also play harmonica.

I've played in bands before, but everyone I jam with has such a different idea of what kind of music they want to make. My music is too "out there" for most of the people I've jammed with.

My dad's friend has a recording studio and he always asks me to come record, I think after highschool (not too far away!) I'm going to record an album. I have enough decent songs to record a full length album, but it would basically just be a collection of random folk, rock, and blues songs and I can't imagine it sounding very great as one album. I'm gonna wait and record an album with all new songs, or maybe just one really long song...that would be cool. When I record something, if we all still visit this site, I'll post it!

That's pretty cool. My bass teacher has a studio at his house, so twice a year he runs a camp where each student pick a song they want to learn and he'll teach to a couple people on each instrument. Then, we go over to his house and over the course of two days record and mix the songs. I may try and post some of my stuff from the latest camp after I get the CD.

I play guitar. I don't own a bass but I can play it well cause I often borrow my friends' bass. I started playing harmonica a few weeks ago. I used to play clarinet and trumpet for school band, haha..

Yeah drummers are very hard to find, there are about 2 or 3 in my school. I would love to start a band but too few people play what I play. When I have jammed with people and I start with the guitar solo after about 30 or 45 seconds they say I've been playing for too long. Long jams have become a lost art in my school hopefully I'll meet some more open minded people in collage.

i live in farmington hills. its like 30 minutes from detroit.

the jam went well. he's a good guitarist.

I guess i lucked out, one of my best friends is a drummer who likes almost every single band i do, we share the same idea that we want in a band, its pretty awesome.

I love classic rock... ive been listeing to bands like lynyrd skynyrd moody blues, beatles, kinks, van halen, steve miller, and so on for all my life.. it is jus cool **** to be listing to

tremendous revelation right there. thanks for that.

:lol: :lol: ^

Does anybody like the Genesis i sent out? cause im bored, and ill do some more.

Genisis is alright... 70's is a kick *** era..i can listen to about almost any rock back then..

I'm lucky I don't have the drummer problem.... because I am one :p.

My brother plays drums...although he prefers hand drumming (or whatever). He plays the djembe in a band, they are pretty good. They sound kinda like Sublime, but with more of a reggae type rhythm. I know lots of drummers, but they are all too closeminded, currently in a band, or are jackasses.

Ya it might just be because I am a drummer but I do know alot of drummers. However I wouldn't nessecarily reccomend them to someone looking to start a band.

Hand drums are cool. I'd get some if I could afford them, we have some congas and bognos at school, but no djembes or anything.

Death Cab For Cutie is pretty sweet, as someone said on the last page.

Got some cds out of the libarry today:

New Order - Substance
John Mayall & The Bluesbreakers - Road Dogs
Jackie Wilson - 20 Greatest Hits
Mott The Hoople - All The Young Dudes

I love Mott The Hoople

np: Iron Maiden - 2 Minutes To Midnight

What album do you suggest I get from Death Cab?

My copy of Road Dogs is signed my the man himself :)

I've heard their new one, Plans, is quite good.

I only have the Forbidden Love EP.

I really like the idea of that forum band - I'm really keen to participate on guitar. I can also sing a bit but im not very good at it... I can though
