I've been to good concerts.


I've seen the Allman brothers several times, the Dead, Lynrd Skynrd, Galactic, Sammy Hagar, Bob Dylan. All of those were great, with the exception of Bob Dylan who sounded like a constricted duck but was still worthwhile, but still not a wholly pleasant experience.

Seafroggys 12-16-2006 10:12 PM

Concerts are way too expensive these days, you can mostly blame ticketmaster for that. Also, when bands decide not to use corperate sponsorship, that raises ticket prices drastically (hence why the Who were over $200 for floor), which is sad, because they shouldn't need corperate sponsorship. Woodstock was only $16, which according to inflation is like $96, which is nothing for 3 days of music.

Support your local bands (good ones that is) because by doing so will only encourage more good local bands. None of this DJ dance club ****.

Oi.

DJ dance club **** is cool.

At least the techno stuff is.

Hard House and Happy Hardcore FTW <3

Inkstar 12-16-2006 10:27 PM

Sup.

Janeway 12-16-2006 10:29 PM

Most local bands I would like play in 21+ places. But those, I don't mind. It's rarely ever above $5 and the shows are generally very good. Eh.




I like a lot of industrial, and stuff like Shpongle and Squarepusher, but I listen to it on my mp3 player. I would never go see it live, or even fathom setting foot into a club or dance party.

Raves kick [B]a[/B]ss, mans.

And you don't even have to be on drugs to enjoy them.

Janeway 12-16-2006 10:55 PM

All it is is flashy lights and loud, crapulent music. You NEED drugs to enjoy it.




I don't know what to ask for for Christmas.
I can get a new mouthpiece for my saxophone. Either a Vandoren Optimum, or a Selmer Larry Teal, and probably a new lig and a few different types of reeds. I've got a very bright jazz alto sound, and it isn't so well for classical playing.
That would really mellow my sound down a lot.

I really don't feel like saxophone at the moment, though.

There isn't anything I really want at the moment. I download all of my movies and music, I hate clothes, and I alreadee have a ton of sh[B]i[/B]t. This was easier when I was younger.



I think the 'alreadee' is a nice touch.

Janeway 12-16-2006 10:58 PM

I'm tired.



And going to bed.


Good night.

green242 12-16-2006 11:53 PM

I hope to get some extra moolah over the christmas holiday. get some extra hours at work and hopefully be able to get that set of cymbals I have been hopin to replace..

TheBigMachine 12-16-2006 11:55 PM

Man I need a job so bad.

green242 12-17-2006 12:01 AM

u can't get one? man, around here.. all ya need is like, a gr. 5 education and u can get a job. But I guess even tho, there are still unemployed people.
I go to school, but work on the side for my gas money to get to school basically. But now that I'm on christmas holiday, I can get like 70 extra hours... and finally maby get my cymbals I need...

TheBigMachine 12-17-2006 12:13 AM

Yeah, I can, i just havent lately because I've been flat out with sport and music. Mainly sport though. I play sport every single day of the week. Now it's holidays, I dont, and I could get a job, but Im going away very soon so there's not too much use in it.

green242 12-17-2006 12:15 AM

ahhh, yah. decisions, decisions

TheBigMachine 12-17-2006 12:15 AM

Yeah I know
Decisions suck

Inkstar 12-17-2006 12:28 AM

Ordered a new 18" HH Medium crash yesterday. :thumb:

TheBigMachine 12-17-2006 12:29 AM

Nice, nice.
Is that going to go out the back, over your floor tom?

[QUOTE=TheBigMachine;13832497]Nice, nice.

Most probably. However I've got an 18" China there atm, so I've gotta decide where to put that. Maybe directly over my ride, and higher than one of my 16" crashes, so it's half overlapping the crash and china. Make sense?

TheBigMachine 12-17-2006 01:00 AM

Yeah I get it. You could put the china really low to the ground, like level with the floor tom, just beside it. Or something. Im just toying with idea's.

maniac0796 12-17-2006 03:07 AM

I just found the most insane thrash song ever.

My last words by Megadeth.

One Groovin Clown 12-17-2006 03:10 AM

So my drummer and I get along really well. :p

Who do you guys enjoy playing with most: Guitarists or Bassists?

This is only if you have a preferred preference of course. :p

maniac0796 12-17-2006 03:12 AM

Neither, they're both assholes, but if i had to choose, bassist.

I drank too much whiskey last night...

One Groovin Clown 12-17-2006 03:13 AM

I've been drunk the last 4 nights. :p

Semester break is pretty damn sweet.

Aw true man.. that'd be sweet. I'll try it out. I've seen setups similar to that. Thanks :thumb:

The only beer/lager i like is stella, and no one had any.... They were all drinking carling which was like, luke warm.

But i'm a man of sophistication, so i drank the scotch whiskey. And then my lead guitarist kept buying me JD and coke.

Was a good night. Few punk bands playing and stuff. Got to see some people i ain't seen in a while.

Corkofski 12-17-2006 04:54 AM

maniac, i love you

carling is literally goats piss...

stella however...

maniac0796 12-17-2006 05:35 AM

Corkofski 12-17-2006 05:42 AM
