eeeee. Am band hunting again. I need to get into a gigging band badly. I mean I have a gig comin up with one band but they're more of a hobby band.

Why is it so hard to find a band lol

ace76543 04-09-2008 08:17 PM

fishbulb 04-09-2008 08:24 PM

[quote=Win A Rabbit;16208655]to the first question: why does someone have to advertise the fact that they got drunk on the weekend?

i'm not saying they have to, i was just saying that if he was gonna pull the "dont push your lifestyle on me" for having it in his usertitle thing, which seems to happen alot, there's sooooo much more discussion about drug/alcohol use lifestyles in these threads. that's all i was saying. for people to not be like "OMG STFU PLZ I DONT WANT TO HEAR ABOUT YOUR LIFESTYLE CHOICES OBTW I GOT SO HIGH AND DRUNK LAST WEEKENDLOL"[/quote]
That would be just as immature, I never said it was. To be honest, broadcasting your views about anything is kind of immature unless it is done in a manner which might actually change something, like a protest.

Chippy569 04-09-2008 10:28 PM

opinions are like as[size=2]s[/size]holes; don't share yours with just anyone.

bobby__johnny 04-09-2008 10:29 PM

so i was drunk last night.... First time tequila :confused:

but it was at an Eagles tribute show...awesome covers btw :thumb:

fishbulb 04-09-2008 10:51 PM

Tequila isn't all that great.

I'd rather take a few brews than hard liquor any day.

stevensonmat2 04-09-2008 11:09 PM

your not a real man

i'm not trying to go with the "only mature smart kids are sXe" thing. i'm just saying that advertising your lifestyle, using or avoiding drugs, is equal, and was trying to tell people not to rag on people over the internet for abstaining, because nobody rags on people over the internet for using.

i never intended for this to be a multiple-post discussion.

A Dead Modernist 04-09-2008 11:48 PM

why do people care about peoples lifestyle choices so much?

Win A Rabbit 04-09-2008 11:51 PM

what do you guys think of this poster?

LoneStarDrummer 04-09-2008 11:53 PM

why are the proceeds going to [I]Yamaha Enhanced Sustain System (YESS)?
[/I]

Win A Rabbit 04-09-2008 11:54 PM

sry, Youth Emergency Shelter Society.

like, if that was in a town close to you, is that all the info you'd need? anything else i should add?

LoneStarDrummer 04-10-2008 12:02 AM

it's not bad at all, but you must remember that the average person is very stupid. it needs to say exactly what it is, that way people realize that those are the acts preforming.

also since people are generally dumb, it should say doors [B][I]open at[/I][/B] 1:30, instead of just doors 1:30. they may think the doors are preforming at 1:30. that could be a big let down for some. i personally would be pleased if the doors didn't play, but that's just me.

Panopticon 04-10-2008 12:36 AM

i dont think people are really THAT stupid.

Panopticon 04-10-2008 12:47 AM

so i went to the pub near my work and got pretty drunk and all my managers from work were there. It was vv awkward. My dept. manager is leaving and his last shift is tomorrow. Last time i'll ever see him and i was drunk lol

Seafroggys 04-10-2008 02:04 AM

so, like, not ONE of my friends that said they would go to my show ended up going. My mom, dad, and brother went, as well as a co-worker of my mom's, plus all the people that the rest of the bandmates brought.

Pretty good gig, first gig was more exciting because our crowd was bigger. Most people left after the first set, leaving us with 8 people actually watching us and another 10 at the bar.

Win A Rabbit 04-10-2008 02:12 AM

the last gig my band played, the guitarist went around to his coworkers and said "hey do you want to come see my band? here, you owe me $10" and handed them a ticket. they all paid him for it, but like only half of them actually came out to see us.

Seafroggys 04-10-2008 02:14 AM

^^^Those gigs are so stupid and lame.

This was a bar gig, they're guaranteed a crowd anyway.

The Mites 04-10-2008 03:15 AM

I want a new kit.

How much difference is there between Gretsch Catalina Maple and Renown Maple?

TheEndOfAllThingsToCome 04-10-2008 03:40 AM

[QUOTE]How much difference is there between Gretsch Catalina Maple and Renown Maple?[/QUOTE]

I know the renown maple has 30 degree bearing edges, where as the Catalina maple has 45. Although having different edges is more a matter of preference than a difference in quality. The renown also has "the Gretsch Silver Sealer inside all drums", although I have no idea what difference that makes to the sound.

What's up dudes and dudettes I was drinkin' some Hard A the other night and boy did I get really smashed. Don't worry I'm a big strong man and I can handle all my booze. Yeah I went drunk driving :cool:

what are ya'll up to

CasB 04-10-2008 03:59 AM

Drunk driving is for losers...

an_original_name 04-10-2008 04:02 AM

A mate of mine had a girlfriend who got hit by a drunk driver. She died in hospital 3 hours after he hit her.

Think about that next time you decide to drink drive.
