my band sucks!

Zappa 08-20-2006 01:18 AM

Me (on synthesizers) and my friend (on electronic drumkit) had a show tonight. 11 songs in about 25 minutes, all completely improvised. We have a lot of nerve.

that sounds interesting.


depending on who was watching the show it could've gone really well or really bad. some people just don't dig that kind of thing
did they dig that kind of thing?

biografiend 08-20-2006 09:54 AM

Interesting indeed.

I miss all my friends at college :(.

Zappa 08-20-2006 12:40 PM

There weren't many people in the audience. We played first on a four band bill, so not a lot of people had showed up yet.

My dad took video of the whole set on a digital camera, but the camera was set to "compact" video, so the images to accompany the music are pretty much useless. I edited all the audio down to just music (without applause, banter, or dead air), though, and it actually sounds really good. Kind of like Miles Davis Electric plus live 60s Zappa plus Sonic Youth plus electronic indie pop.

PECOAE 08-20-2006 12:49 PM

Put it up somewhere!

Let's hear it.

asymm 08-20-2006 01:08 PM

Definitely, I'd love to hear it Zappa.

sexymuffin 08-20-2006 01:10 PM

ugh alex is lying i just heard it.

it sounds like a quadrapalegic smashing his head against the keyboard becuase he's pissed off that he can't cover "Mad World" by gary jules anymore.

asymm 08-20-2006 01:38 PM

that song is by Tears for Fears.

Zappa 08-20-2006 01:45 PM

Tears for Fears is my mom's favorite band. Tears for Fears actually admitted to liking Gary Jules' cover better than their original, which I think is a hugely ballsy move. I respect that.

I never heard that, but yeah, that is quite ballsy. It'd be hard to drop your ego over your work and say something like that.

sexymuffin 08-20-2006 04:22 PM

[QUOTE=asymm]that song is by Tears for Fears.[/QUOTE]

yeah i know but gary jules does it way better so it's his song

although TFF has that cool little tribal drum so i dunno

Little Man being Erased 08-21-2006 01:29 AM

I haven't even heard of any of those artists, except for John Mayer.

Zmev 08-21-2006 01:38 AM

apparently john mayer now makes political songs

uggghhhhh

Little Man being Erased 08-21-2006 01:44 AM

Hahaha. He truly personifies the word "tool."

Zmev 08-21-2006 01:59 AM

his old stuff was decent, and apparently his new stuff would be jazz/funk influenced

Zmev 08-21-2006 02:00 AM

he even got uglier

Otherside 08-21-2006 02:05 AM

Is he trying out for a Tim Burton movie or something?

Tangy zizzle 08-21-2006 02:49 AM

We may mock him, but he's a better axeman and gets more sex than anyone who's posted in this thread. Probably combined.

sr800bkBassist 08-21-2006 02:49 AM

Why does everyone hate that guy so much?

Funny, gaslight came to the same exact conclusion in the Australia forum about two weeks ago.

He was right, of course.

ATM 08-21-2006 09:37 AM

[QUOTE=Zappa]Why does everyone hate that guy so much?[/QUOTE]

He's the type of guy that brings his acoustic guitar to parties to try and get laid.

PinkFreud 08-21-2006 01:30 PM

He's an excellent blues guitarist though. He's also got the very worst guitar faces I've ever seen.

Broken Arrow 08-21-2006 02:01 PM

Ugh, like on Crossroads. I felt embarassed for him when he made some of those faces. His album TRY! was pretty good though.

Little Man being Erased 08-21-2006 03:35 PM

I don't hate him. I even like some of his songs. But he is a mega tool.

Gene Simmons gets more sex than that, and he's a fu[size=2]ckin'[/size] BASSIST. But that's besides the point. The only problem I have with John Mayer is his voice, it's really raspy and annoying. I like his appearance on Chappelle's show, though.

el doctor 08-21-2006 04:47 PM

I like John Mayer because he did this:
