Sometimes discussion goes on. It was better when more 03'ers and other vets hung out, now it's all the danged 04'ers.

Yeah, everyonce in awhile there will be a senseable discussion but not very often.

[QUOTE=spirit]Unfortunately, no, not 300 USD, but 300 GBP, which equals 575 USD. Still a pretty good deal I feel.[/QUOTE]

No Problem, Thanks for unsticking that thread too.

Make sure to check out all the folders in there as well cause there's plenty more pics.

The crashes are UFiP Roughs 16 and 18.
Hats are crap.
The ride is an old A Zildjian 20" Medium Heavy. (In most pics it's a Sabian B8 Pro)
The China is a Wuhan 18"
and the splash is a 10" Wuhan.

Anyone else ever leave something of their's at a gig?

I just left my Stick Bag with my drop clutch:(.
Luckily I have an extra clutch and sticks laying round.. I'll have to go pick em up sometime, it sucks because the gig was 1 hour away..


And rich,
That acoustic is so hot.. oh man im jelious..

[QUOTE=-TheGlassPrison-]And rich,

Aussie made goodness.

Let's see...
Name's John, been playing for about 6 or 7 years, I'd have to dig out a calendar and see haha
Mapex Pro M with Sabian and Wuhan cymbals.

I play drums for Scuff, KC 4 piece Metal/Hardcore/Metalcore/NWOAHM band with my 2 best friends and our new singerpal Woody haha

Influences PERSONALLY : Buddy Rich, Portnoy, Carey, Bonham, Beauford
Influences AS A BAND : Evergreen Terrace, Unearth, Lamb of God, Shadows Fall, Black Dahlia Murder, Comeback Kid...

My band just put the down payment on a Rehearsal Studio today. 12x24 room, soundproof level of 54db, inhouse Recording Studio ($38 per hour). Rent is $250 a month, only $62.50 for each of the 4 of us.

From the shows I go to and what I mainly listen to you'd call me a Hardcore kid...Walls of Jericho, Comeback Kid, Unearth, Champion, With Honor, Remembering Never, Terror, Throwdown...but I'm not. I'm not Hardcore, Emo, a Metalhead, an Old Schooler, as a band we are none of these. We all are ourselves.

I'm a self made "ladies man", meaning I have many beautiful lady friends, some could be more some won't be, some I want to be, but yeah haha
I work at McDonalds.
Laugh, but it pays.

As do many other jobs that dont envolve saying "you want fries with that?".




I'm Sam, and most people know about what i do.

I'm really lucky to be where i am, but i work da[I]m[/I]n hard to stay there.

I use Yamaha, Brady, Sabian, Ziljdian, Stagg, Pearl, LP, if it makes a nice noise then ill use it.

Im involved with music 7 days a week most of the time, i play drums alot, but dont practice as much as i should, i just love playing with bands.

Ive been with my girlfriend for 2 years now, since yesterday.

I work in halfords- an English shop where we sell mountain bikes and make them etc, i love it, seeing as my other passion is bikes!

Im really extroverted and love attention haha.

I have said "i" way too many times in this thing, i suck at writing these.

Congrats Bro!
Hows the new Brady snare been treating you?


Rich..
That Aussie made guitar is so awsome... any place you know of i could order one?

The snare is gorgeous, my mates got a craviotto and its got nothing on the Brady :cool:

Actually I have never ONCE asked if they want fries with that. I just take their order and leave it at that, letting them order what they want to eat. It goes by quicker and I don't sound like a jackass haha

Dont sound like a jack[I]as[/I]s?

Rethink.

hey I just realized it doesn't censor the word "jackass", I spelled it normally haha!

Let's see...currently making $7 an hour, up for a raise sometime next week. All I have to do is say "how can I help you" and "have a nice day" and then basically stand around for the rest of the day.

And your job would be.... ?

I had the greatest job ever.

During October I was helping this one political group that paid us through 'stipends' (or whatever the term is when you get paid for volunteering so its tax-free). We got paid $40 a day while we worked.

We were supposed to put up signs saying "Vote Early" and stuff like that (as Oregon uses a mail-in voting system). Me and my friend spent a week getting names of people to call up and ask to help us (and we got paid for this, during school!). Then we got people, and for the next week we weren't given any assignments, but still got paid!

So literally I made almost $300 for just driving to the headquarters two or three times, waiting around at my school for the guy to show up to pay us, and to ask around at school for people who want to help :D It was so frickenly easy.

That's how I got my Sabian 18" AA Crash :lol:

I have a £1000 bike and ride alot, so bikes is kinda 2nd in line in my interests after drumming.

So i do what i love, and get paid $10 an hour for it.


Oh would you look at that.

sounds cool. I don't bike as much as I used to, I used to ride all the time but mine broke and I never got a new one haha
Full time?

I'll be applying at both Argosy Casino and Musicians Friend soon though (MF first of course), both starting at about $10.50

Nope i dont do full time.

I go to music college full time, and i get paid £10 a week to do that.
