[QUOTE=Dancin' Man]Ahhh. I remember when we used to have rap conversations and he called Aesop nerd rap. I told him he was stupid because Aesop is awesome.[/QUOTE]

Aesop is awesome and Joe is pissed off big style.

So i go to this gig tonight to play drums, i have all my kit, its all good and we start playing. The house 'bass drum' (use that term losely) had a ring so thin that my DW 5000 series pedal wouldnt clamp to it. Thats right, one of the most expensive pedals on the market WOULDNT clamp to a bass drum.

Then, the bass drum starts moving backwards at an angle, not taking my pedal with it. At this stage, i am shi[u]t[/u] scared considering this is my first gig with this band, and i had only jammed with them once on Friday. To make matters worse, i had to go through a whole song with NO BASS DRUM. NONE. I hate house kits so much now.

:angry: :upset:

Jum did it, I don't think I saw who won though.

[i]Yo...put one up shackle me, not clean logic procreation
I did not invent the wheel I was the crooked spoke adjacent
While the triple sixers lassos keep angels roped in the basement
I walk the block with a halo and a stick poking your patience
Ya'll catch a 30 second flash visual
Dirty cooperative Neptune blue head hurt splits
Ridiculous fathom the splicing of first generation
f**k up or trickle down anti hero smack (Cracking!)
I paste the game to zero all completion green (Splash!)
Took an early retirement pick a dream
American nightmare hogging the screen
I'll hold the door open so you can stumble in
and you would stop following me around the jungle gym
Now it's an honor and I spell it with the 'H' I stole from
heritage
Marry crutch stolen wretched refuge refuse my teaming resonance
I promise temperance storm breed with a leaning conscious
In a credence relax responsive with my sports outsource the
wattage
And I'm sleeping now (Wow!) And the settlers laugh
You won't be laughing when your covered wagons crash
You won't be laughing when the buses drag your brother's flags
into rags
You won't be laughing when your front lawn is spangled with
epitaphs
You won't be laughing
And I hang my boots to rest when I'm impressed
So I triple knot them then I forgot them
This origami dream is beautiful
but man those wings will never leave the ground
Without a feather and a lottery ticket, now settle down

Um, yeah.

I would never use house equipment if I could help it. Ronnie Earl had to use a house amp, an old Fender Twin, when I saw him, and while it sounded decent I think it was a bit shrill and lacking in variety of sound. His own equipment was in another city, by accident.

All i ever wanted was to pick up on the day (?)
Put the pieces back together my way....

Cain - Yeah.... I think I had around 150 posts yesterday. It took me around 5 months to hit 1000 posts.

Joe - Our drummer has never used a house kit. We always asume his is better and to play it safe by bringing his along.

^Pick apart the day

My post count goes up like crazy. I don't even seem to post that much.

Yes i know this, but i had been told the house kit was alright, and i couldnt bring my bass drum, let alone my kit, on the train with me.

[QUOTE=ArrestThisMan]My post count goes up like crazy. I don't even seem to post that much.[/QUOTE]

You post regularly in a lot of different forums though. I usually restrict myself to Politics and R+M. And I usually don't find many threads of interest in either forum. The homosexuality threads of late have been quite stimulating, although Non Sequitur is pissing me off, since I'm deconstructing and destroying his arguments against homosexuality but he goes selectively deaf to the actual points and counters with the same old stuff.

I don't intend to get into a debate about this here, as I know certain people would agree with Non Sequitur, it's just that his method of debate is truly irksome.

Hey sup guys, whats up? I wen't to that Martial Arts compititon yesterday and placed 1st in a few things :thumb: was really cool. I got to meet Bill "superfoot" Wallace. Got pics with him and stuff was awsome.

I bought drum mutes today...I hate them so much :( (but have to use them when I'm not home alone)

[QUOTE=zeppelinfan2k3]I bought drum mutes today...I hate them so much :( (but have to use them when I'm not home alone)[/QUOTE]

That sucks, I hate those things too. I'm lucky because my mom dosen't care that I play them.

I was typing out Night Light and then realized it was taking forever.

[QUOTE=Cain]Yeah, he got it from her AIM profile. :-/

BTW: I love your idea for us to all be in a house together, ATM. That sounds hysterical. I wonder what I would be doing?[/QUOTE]

You'd be the token "Guy who's too normal to be popular on a reality show".

Non Sequitur really pisses me off in the Sports forum...every single NBA-related thread turns into a debate between me and him.

EDIT: $%)*$Y% Vince sighting!

[QUOTE=Silent Death]That sucks, I hate those things too. I'm lucky because my mom dosen't care that I play them.[/QUOTE]
Yeah, if it was just not as loud it'd be fine, but it messes up the balance of the drums, slows technique and changes sound...no fun.

I still remember when Eric posted audio of Zero playing guitar. It was hilarious how he defended himself.

Either that, or please explain the circumstances?

I'm unsure if I should take offense. Probably not. :p

None of these silly n00bs were around to see it though. ;)
At least, I don't think so.

Yea, I guess that's true.

I post in R&M, Alt and Indie, Other Music, and the Pit.

[QUOTE=Cain]I'm unsure if I should take offense. Probably not. :p[/QUOTE]

Oh, it's not meant to be mean. On every reality show (The Real World in particular) there's one guy who's too normal and well-adjusted to stand out. Nothing wrong with that.

That's it, I'm getting an Eddie Hazel avatar.

I'm rocking out so hard to Cosmic Slop right now.

Ah, I see. :p I still think the idea would be funny though. We'd have to import lots of hotties to keep our house from being a retarded sausage-fest though.

[QUOTE=Superpeer]Haha, yeah.

Yeah, madey's obviously not going be enough to suffice (especially because she behaves like a guy most of the time anyway)

A few of the guys (me, ATM, Jelle, I think you, and DM) have girlfriends but we wouldn't bring them into the house...that would just be weird.

"Hey babe, pack your bags. We are going to be on a reality show, where all of the people that hang out in a rock and metal community thread stay together in one giant house for a few weeks/months."

:eek:

[QUOTE=Cain]Got a link?[/QUOTE]
It was in the Mx History thread, but Zero/non seq deleted the thread like a bitch


Superpeer, I demand you to undelete it.

That would be so good. I would bring :

Beer
CS : Source
Manga
Manga
Manga
Guitar

Btw, im working on a Black Metal solo project at the minute, i will post the results in about... 2 weeks.

My girlfriend would probably bitch slap me, and call me a nerd.

And, to answer your other question, Ray, he asked me about blowjobs. Incessantly, and without any discretion or decorum. Creepy bastard. He then proceeded to tell me to relax, he was just seeing how long it would take for me to end the conversation.

I don't know how to block people on AIM :(

That would be weird. It would be especially funny if we didn't really get along so after the stay in the house no one posted at R&M anymore.

Right click and then block.

I looked for it, but I think Zerokewl (non sequitur) might have deleted it.

Oh, I see Gilmour beat me to it. If you can find an easy way to find it, Gilmour, sure I'll undelete it.

I'd be fine because I like both hippie and devil music.
