Hey guys, I just finished a practice with my band about an hour ago. It was really really fun; we finished up an original and started covering Californication.

Californication is a super fun song to play. The whole groovy feel of it is sooo awesome. I'm excited about it :D :thumb: .

I can't get Fall of Troy outta my Winamp.

Oh my God, they remind me of a hardcore/screamo Mars Volta.

SO GOOD.

sounds good, I love a band practice that goes really well, we had 4 hour practice one time (my old band) where we learned 6 songs, they wernt learned well but it was a good base to start on and then we jst got batter at them and it was wicked

yeah, we only had about 2 hours and fifteen minutes,Yand it still went wicked. Things are going great! I love our new bass player.

theres nothing like a two hour improv, those make me so happy/

i just started the process of refinishing my drums
so far i have taken all the hardware and the wrap off my snare
and i have sand'd it im gonna wait till right before i put the finish i still havent exactly on the finish im going to go with yet but im prolly going with a stain and polyurathane in one step

WHERE IS DJ ANDO

i wouldn't want to be a mod. it's take alot of the freeness and "fun" out of just being a poster. right now i can post when/where/what (to some degree) i want, but being a mod means contributing extra and whatnot. that's just me though.

i just worked an 8 hour shift, had a 2 hour nap, and got my cd burner working. it's been so long since it's been up and working, we had to buy a new one, take the old one out, and install the new one. not too difficult, but it was something i'd never done before. now i'm burning about 30 cd's i've been waiting to burn :lol: looks like i'll be on here a while tonight. just taking it easy, staying home tonight. i'm way too tired to go out, and i'm already in my pj's anyways.

Im in the process of making my sister a pedalboard
she's been playing for 7 years and she's only 15. That and I almost have the cash to get my HHX 18" Stage crash

haha my friend made a pedal board, it was two levels of black shelf type looking wood. And it had chains connecting it, hahaha it was so grim.

Wow, that must drive your parents crazy lol, two kids who paly drums lol, and ya Is your sister hot?? haha, jk, and good luck with the new crash when you get it.

[QUOTE]im gonna make my guitarist a pedal board soon as soon as i now how big its gonna need to be[/QUOTE] I would get one....But I only use 2 pedals. I would get another pedal If I could simulate Eastern instruments, But I dont see this happeneing any time soon.

^ I think he ment a pedal board for guitar.

I had a good jam today, we got a song finished and made a whole new one aswell. Now we only need lyrics for 3 then we will have 12 song and will probally record.

[QUOTE]^ I think he ment a pedal board for guitar.[/QUOTE] Yes I was speaking of guitar as well.

Yeah guitar
I come from a musical background. My dad used to play drums in highschool but he stopped so because I took it up he's getting back into it again. And my grandmother taught music theory and piano in the Philippines

[QUOTE=Jomofo] I love our new bass player.[/QUOTE]
thats awesome dude, nothing better than having a sweet bass player

Very true. We get along incredibly as people; and even better as musicians. It's weird, because I only just met him a month or so ago. So awesome though.

[quote]Yes I was speaking of guitar as well.[/quote]

Ya I know sorry, I was talking to the guy above you but you hadn't posted yet then you posted just before I did.

my band(in the process of forming) needs a bass player.....

i'm sitting here, eating some cold pizza i took home from work, burning cd's, in my pj's. man i'm cool. i've burned 5 so far, about to burn another, possibly some more. i think i'll call it quits after 6, then read in bed for a while and go to sleep. got a big day of school ahead of me tomorrow. sigh.

oh, i have a question for you guys. since i don't drive, and gas prices are so high, am i entitled to pitch in for gas money if i'm just tagging along for the ride, and if i didn't suggest to drive somewhere or buy anything from where ever it is we go? i'm asking because my friends were telling me how angry they were getting at one of my friends who always gets people to drive her places but never pitches in for gas money. so i was wondering how you'd feel about my situation.

[QUOTE=thenewguy515]my band(in the process of forming) needs a bass player.....[/QUOTE]

i think a good bass player is the hardest to find. what kid when they are growing wants to learn bass? its usually guitar or piano, which both make drums easier to learn.

thats exactly how it is with me. I found a fantastic player, hes crazy.

I have the sizes 8x10, 10x12, 12x14, and 16x14, and i'm wondering if a 16x18 would fit this setup. It seems to make sense, as it is all perfect intervals, but I'm curious if anyone thinks that the fusion sized toms may not go so well with such a large drum. Yes, I have considered the option of an 8x8 tom, and I'm also considering it. I like bigger drums anyway, and I have good setup ideas for it all. Anyway, I'm just curious about the future of my setup, and ways I could expand if i want to.

[QUOTE=poppinfresh]thats exactly how it is with me. I found a fantastic player, hes crazy.[/QUOTE]

That's awesome. I don't think there is anything more refreshing than a new bass player. They always help me to continue being creative, and not get stuck in a rut of repeating myself in my beats, fills, etc.

ok so i just did the first coat of danish oil on my snare i chose danish oil ya im currently taking the hardware of my toms as i tyupe

hey puppet why did you get banned?

i accidentally clicked a threadspawn link
