Yeah, that was an awesome song. He went way, way too early.

fatbandit 05-25-2009 07:08 PM

i've been listening to nothing buy Hybrid and Squarepusher recently

gaslight 05-26-2009 12:18 AM

Yeah man, think about the awesome songs he could have gone to record if he'd have had more common sense and/or swimming lessons.

This. Man the forum's been dead for like a couple years now.

We should have some kinda street recruitment drive for the bass forum... Of course that would mean leaving the house. Motorbike has no MOT, am stuck in house till it gets going... christ oh mother ****ing christ I am bored!

So what's new in the world of MX, haven't been around much since like christmas. Last time I checked in Iscariot had a hissy and spammed the bored to high hell with prawn. Anyone fancy taking time out and filling me in on everything since then?

You're looking at it.

karmapavementplan 05-26-2009 09:56 AM

really? Slow times indeed.

Oh I tried earplugs again at practice. My ears were fine but got complained at because I couldn't hear myself too well I was apparently cranking the distortion too high. Think I'm going to have to level up without plugs for 5 mins or so to get **** right. Also found it difficult to distinguish between riffs... that was probably my own inept ears though.

FunkMetalBass 05-26-2009 02:09 PM

So, erm, help?

dsmitty347 05-26-2009 08:35 PM

whys that spiff


while you're answering that, you wanna unban me? i got a two week ban for spaming L&R in community with like 3 posts.


this is Danny if the "347" didnt tip you off



i have my entry done, but im completing another song in the next couple days, idk which one im gonna enter in the comp

Spaceman Spiff 05-26-2009 08:40 PM

Because, apparently (HA!), our dogs bark sometimes when no one is home. And they bark quite loudly. And we live in an apartment, so people complained.

I've learned that they can't legally kick us out over this because they don't have recorded proof, but we're moving anyway. We already found a new place, a house, that's only $100 more than what we're paying here per month. It's going to be sick.

Spaceman Spiff 05-26-2009 08:47 PM

And I've been recording guitar. Hopefully it won't take too much longer to complete.

Gattsu347 05-26-2009 08:54 PM

i just have to choose which i want to enter. one is wordplay underground rap and the other is.....something different, idk what to call it.

Spaceman Spiff 05-26-2009 08:55 PM

Oh, I wasn't talking about the competition, I'm not entering that. I don't have gear to record at home. I'm talking about the new album.

Gattsu347 05-26-2009 08:57 PM

oh sick.


same singer and/or singing style??

Spaceman Spiff 05-26-2009 09:02 PM

We've got this girl singing. We've got a couple live videos on youtube with her, that's all I can show you at the moment.

Cramboli 05-27-2009 12:13 AM

Spiff- Torch the place before you go... Or the old dead possum or any other dead creature in the vents/chicken **** under the carpets... Or just ol' fashion torching...

karmapavementplan 05-28-2009 01:18 AM

Lol, get this...

In my current band only one member has gigged and me, the singer/guitarist and the drummer have never gigged.

So the drummer goes about looking for a gig and says that the slots at this pub are 20 mins on some band night and so 20 mins sounds great, right? Well he decides to have a word with the organiser and despite being unknown and never gigged he manages to swing us the headline spot for the night and an hour slot! LMAO, we only have like 2 riffs we've written and no structure. Let the good times roll.

Cramboli 05-28-2009 02:12 AM

Good luck to you man just bust your *** this could make or break your band... Hell my first gig we didn't even get to play the owner ended up giving our half our to this other band who sounded bloody awful and I'm pretty tolerant of live gigs and such... Hope it all goes well for you...

karmapavementplan 05-28-2009 07:15 AM

thanks man, going to actually have to write a track soon before the gig.

how's life treating you?

FunkMetalBass 05-28-2009 07:21 AM

BULLSH*T BULLSH*T BULLSH*T

My computer crashed last night. :upset: I hope my hard drives are okay, because my power supply is definitely a goner (literally started smoking) and my motherboard wasn't acting normally on startup (didn't recognize the brand of my CPU anymore). Then it just shut off.

karmapavementplan 05-28-2009 09:03 AM

Anything important on there?

Urbreathsmells 05-28-2009 09:35 AM

I'm going to go out today and buy a Sterling by Musicman SB14. It's pure sex

How much is that gonna run ya?

Or rather, how many dollars over the $400 that it's worth

Urbreathsmells 05-28-2009 10:31 AM

Costs $600, the bass is actually really really good.

FunkMetalBass 05-28-2009 01:30 PM

[quote=karmapavementplan;17266275]Anything important on there?[/quote]

Yeah. Quite a bit. I was actually in the process of weeding out the dumb stuff and transferring the important things over to my 1TB external.

About 250gb of music (my personal recordings included - yes, my comp entry too)
A bunch of homework assignments and course notes that I took
All of my bootleg programs
A bunch of pictures of my family and guitars

Effin' A. I need some of that homework too because I failed my class and I want to have it all for fall term when I retake it.

FunkMetalBass 05-28-2009 01:32 PM

[quote=Livewire;17266387]Costs $600, the bass is actually really really good.[/quote]

I've heard that they are good, but I couldn't tell ya. The SamAsh near me has one StingRay and there's no point in trying to form an opinion based on guitars at Guitar Center (with 50-year old dead strings, horrible intonation, ridiculously high action, and lots of kids blaring there versions of "Eruption" in the background.

Moon Flavor 05-28-2009 01:45 PM

I dunno never like stingrays. I mean, they get a nice tone but they don't feel comfortable to play at all imo and they are definitely not worth the $1000+ list price for sure. I'd take a Schecter or especially a Carvin over it any day

Did you just intentionally name my two main bass brands? :p

I'm not much of a 4-string guy, but the tone and feel of the Stingray is phenomenal, IMO. I agree that it's not $1k+ worthy (I rarely find a bass that is), but it's certainly $400 worthy - and that's what I paid.

If you're hated then you must be doing something right. I know how you feel being born in a backward place though, gets easier though... you bend to their ways and start spitting, swearing, being racist... ahhh to be backward!

You in a band?

Was now I'm just kickin around with my old band (me) doing un-generalized techno... Old band didn't like my motivation all they did was jam for like 20mins then smoke themselves retarded and talk about going places and doing things while never moving an inch for a few hours until food was mentioned... Immature blokes the whole lot of them...

Cramboli 05-28-2009 07:56 PM
