i love mmos and i love wow been playing it for 3 years now

D/Ling the new patches right now

Yeah but dick cancer.

Dude, have you seen the trailer for Cataclysm, the next WoW expansion?

**** looks so ****ed up, now.

I have seen the trailer for James Cameron's new film Avatar; looks spectacular.

'Sup gents.

Good day to you sirs.

What's going on?

Not much. Pretty wired on lack of sleep. Watching the cricket test NZ v Pakistan, drinking one of the giant V's, doing some work, all kinds of crap.

You?

I'm sitting on my butt waiting for band practice.

How is that?

I'm arranging for my splendid thanksgiving feast next weekend. Wanna come?

Cool man. What's the story, what's your line-up, gigs, EP, album?

It's decent. Mostly boring.

I gotta house sit for someone next weekend who is going away for the weekend, so I gotta stick around the city.

Well, we were two guys who've been writing our own songs for a couple of years now, and eventually transitioned from instrumentals to vocals. Wrote 7-8 songs and decided that we were going to put together a band. We're shooting to be a four piece:

Guitar/vocals
Guitar/backing vox
Bass/backing vox
Drums

Gigs are almost a guarantee as soon as we get a drummer. Since Jeremy and I wrote all of the songs, we're already pretty tight musically, and the new guy on guitar (a friend of ours) is a fast learner, so we're hoping to have everything live-ready in a couple of months. Working on a full-length, as well, but it's involving a lot of recording and re-recording. We need to get some real drums in before we can seriously contemplate pressing or or anything.

You've probably seen me whore this out before. Some of the vocals are a bit sketch (mostly on Design / The Shallows), but they've since been recorded, but just not re-upoaded.

This band is probably my best shot at actually pursuing music as more than just a hobby. Not sure I really want to do a life of music, but if I could get out and play and see some stuff for a year or two, that'd be really ideal. I don't give a f[size=2]uck[/size] about making money, as long as I've got enough to give me a place to sleep and food for my stomach.

I want a band to actually come together. Wouldn't that be nice?

Oh you're Hearth & Salamander.

Cool man, hope it takes off :).

Can I call you guys Sally & The H? That should be your undercover name plus you could do breakfast and/or drive-time radio.

Yesterday was a ridiculous day.

My friend and I bought a Presonus Firebox so we can record at place.
And I bought a Custom Shop Telecaster. I picked it up at the store and it melted me. The neck is a lot thinner than the American Standard (which was my big problem), it's the Crimson Transparent color that I wanted, and, well, it's so fu[size=2]cking[/size] gangster.

$1500 though... :(

BUT, back on the bright side of this, I'll never need another guitar again. I just want to replace the pickup in my Ibanez and I'll be golden.


Be prepared for so much music coming from me (and my friend/bassist for H that I'll be making it with).

Beaut stuff dude.

I love my bargain of a lifetime PRS but I think I'll get an American Standard Strat or something eventually. I only specifically say that model because my mate has one and I played it one time and I just sounded so much nicer than usual through it, it was beautiful.

It was on sale, too. Normally, it would've been $1600+tax, instead it was $1300+tax, which brought it to just under $1500.

Must see. I love Teles and yours sounds like a winner.

I won't let Jeremy record with anything but his Tele.

I'll try and get some family shots of my sexy instruments.

Fender Tele
Ibanez ORM
Ibanez SR-506

Of course I still have my bass!

ORM is what exactly? Omar's?

I don't get why all prices there are x + tax. Why can't prices just be tax inclusive like here?

[QUOTE=funkyhoney;17549270]I don't get why all prices there are x + tax. Why can't prices just be tax inclusive like here?[/QUOTE]

because then they look cheaper which is a good marketing tool for getting people to buy stuff

Are these depressingly long IM chat log times?

[QUOTE=gaslight;17549269]ORM is what exactly? Omar's?[/QUOTE]

Yeah, the Omar Rodriguez-Lopez sig guitar. I still love it even though I got my Tele. It's an amazing-feeling guitar, I just want a better pickup in it.

God damn it I don't post that much :angry:.

I think you do :p

Anyway, I'm going to try and sleep.

sup guys, haven't been in here in a while.

Custom Shop Tele? Cool. Pics pics pics. I'm about to finish my "custom shop" Fender (MIM Jazz). Should be done by the end of next week unless I decide to put a preamp in it.

What's up, Cas?

Today in sports: Everyone I want to win loses.

In other news: Chillin.

I check in all the time, just mainly to lurk. Been pretty bored with life so it's time to MX it up.


Life's a'ight; school and work are just kinda there.

Yousir?

And did they seriously delete the beginner forum? wtf?

Nothing basswise, can't seem to find a vocalist or guitarist that actually gives a **** and doesn't suck. Other than that the whole work/school thing. I'm broke because I didn't work for three months and live pretty far from most of the people I know, so my life has gotten pretty lame. I either just watch DVDs or walk around downtown, but I got a job so I can start wasting money again.

Definitely haven't been getting amazing sex, either, haha.

Just finished Deathly Hallows.
