I need driving lessons goddammit. I hate busses. On the upside, 105 days till my birthday.

Josiah 09-20-2005 04:37 PM

Driving lessons are fun...

Least the ones I took for my motorcycle and car were. They cost a bit but were through the local high way patrol. You can look into seeing if your area has something like that.

Drum Phil 09-20-2005 04:46 PM

In england you dont have to have lessons. You get a temporary license while you learn to drive and a proper one when you pass a test. You dont have to pay for an instructor but its better to.

RushHourSoul 09-20-2005 04:51 PM

Yeah, not being able to drive sucks. Especially when all your friends have passed. I've got my provisional licence but still havn't had a lesson or anything, although I had a go in one of my mates cars, man its so much harder than it looks.

Win A Rabbit 09-20-2005 04:51 PM

in canada you can get your learner's when you're 14, and your driver's when you're 16. you have to have your learner's for atleast a year, and the only restriction is you need to drive with a parent when you have your learner's. i still don't have my learner's, i have no interest in paying insurance yet, since i'd barely ever use my car anyways (after i buy a car of course)

well today in english class, i wrote another rant, but this one was on feminists. she gave us 45 minutes to write it, and i got a good 3/4 of a page in there. i'll post it when i get it back. i liked this one alot more than the other one i did.

Jezen 09-20-2005 05:00 PM

I wrote a 2 page rant within a space of 45 mins on the topic of over-burdening students with homework.

Drum Phil 09-20-2005 05:08 PM

Ah it feels weird not being a student anymore

Jezen 09-20-2005 05:09 PM

By weird you mean good.

Drum Phil 09-20-2005 05:22 PM

Yeah. But i gotta get a job now an that sucks

Futuro 09-20-2005 06:03 PM

Double Bass Jim 09-20-2005 06:06 PM

chances are 99% of the names you'll think of have been used before. think of how many bands are in your town alone. now multiply that by every other town in north america. yea, that's alot of bands. the way i think of it is just pick something that means something to you, and isn't the name of a famous band, and hope you get recognized before a band with the same name as you does. hell, it'll give you some good inspiration too. :lol:

Futuro 09-20-2005 07:05 PM

[QUOTE]How about "Vital signs"

Be a nice nod to rush.[/QUOTE] Yeah that would be a cool name.

@SIC: Yeah you have a point, Im going to be setting up recording gear for this show over the weekend....expect to hear alot in the Gear and media section in the coming week.

poppinfresh 09-20-2005 07:10 PM

i think you should call your band "the mason five"

i just got back from the dmv for my driving test. I wait for an hour and i pull forward after the three cars in front of me left. I was realived that i didnt get the asian guy sho couldnt speak engligh but i got the lady. She walks up to me and asks for the registration because the sticker was expired. And my mom forgot to pay the registration, so now i have to wait another two weeks until oct 4.

Futuro 09-20-2005 07:15 PM

[QUOTE]i think you should call your band "the mason five"[/QUOTE] But we have 4 people.... :confused:

Oh and the DMV sucks man :)

Ethan. 09-20-2005 07:15 PM

What a coincedence; I need a band name too. We do classic rock and blues (the doors, yardbirds, beatles, and zeppelin all mixed together is a good example.)

poppinfresh 09-20-2005 07:17 PM

[QUOTE=faith+1]But we have 4 people.... :confused:

so did we, it doesnt matter.

But one person didnt like the name and unfortunetly for us he was in chrage of the flyers so he got our crap name back up.

FockerTheLopper 09-20-2005 07:53 PM

So, I don't deserve this deserves a thread but it does deserve attention. Do you think that if I suggest a Pink Floyd song in jazz band the teacher will go for it? One like shine on you crazy Diamond with a sax solo, or like any jazzy ones. I really love them but I can't cover them with my band due to their 3 second attention spans and we have no key boardist. If he tries to be smart and says I would be we need a guitarist I'll be like HEY! I play guitar! and he'll be like I'm sorry it ain't happening. Thats what I forsee but I'm not really sure how he thinks

poppinfresh 09-20-2005 08:05 PM

you know what else doesnt deserve a thread? asking how to get an avatar.
