So who's in a band?

[PHOENIX]

I play guitar in a band called the Treehouse Monks. We play classic rock covers in my garage and these are guys i've been hanging out with since we were teens.

[Coyote]

I have seven month stand-in gig coming up in April, in a group called Coverdrive.

AFAIK, no original tunes.

[VAiN]

I had a band called Shine Box a few years back.... the rock scene down in S.Florida is pretty dead. Now I use my Mac to record new song ideas. I'd love to get back into playing out though...

[Reverberator]

I've played for years in the midlands of England with various shite cover bands.

Not doing anything at the moment though.

[PHOENIX]

Do any of you guys ever feel like ramming your singers mic up his ass?

[Coyote]

Do any of you guys ever feel like ramming your singers mic up his ass?

Hard to say. Haven't met her yet...

Ya having problems?

[LoungeMachine]

What's with the anal fixation today, P?

:confused:

[PHOENIX]

What's with the anal fixation today, P?

:confused:

Ever since i saw that Jennifer Aniston pic i've been having ideas.

[jhale667]

I'm not in a band at the moment, and it's pissing me off...;)

[PHOENIX]

Sort of. They are all prima donnas. Maybe i should buy him some fairy wings.

[GAR]

My last singer died of AIDS, and the one before that I last seen at Hollywood Memorial funeral for some glamrock drummer we knew.

He still dresses like like he's going on a Faster Pussycat audition. Same clothes probably, too. I have many fond memories of us stumbling down Sunset and trying to keep him from begging money off people for booze to keep his high going.

[GAR]

I'm not in a band at the moment, and it's pissing me off...;)

Being in a band is easy if you got a station wagon or a van, and wanna drive around picking up everybody then pay for rehearsals out of your own pocket.

I won't do that anymore.. like these fuckers have the world owing them a favor and they deserve patronage.

My number one bitch about being in a band is watching your band drink or order pizza then stiff you on gas money or rehearsal "aw come on dude" fuck that!

:wow2:

[jhale667]

Yeah, the not kicking in thing isn't cool. My last singer couldn't understand why we wouldn't let him have his cheat-sheets on a $8 children's music stand with the floodlight they sell for the elderly to attach to their books onstage...Fuck that...:rolleyes:

[jackassrock]

Ha, for my last band I had to drive 800 miles to NYC for rehersals. The tours were grueling (45 shows in 47 days), and the bass player kept all monies for the sale of merchandise (featuring images of his brother who died in '93). I didn't even get my picture on the fliers for the first year.

Did I mention that the drummer was nearly always naked, and always schizophrenic.

[Coyote]

:rofl: Oh, shit...

[Coyote]

Practical jokes and almost-subtle sarcasm oughta get him thinking...

[Coyote]

But what do you with a singer who's female, bacteriophobic and a bit of a bitch?

[Matt White]

No band...jam with friends once in a blue moon..........

[jhale667]

I'm going nuts over here, need to get something going. Playing that thing in July just aggravated/reinforced it.
The drummer from my last cover band and I are in the initial stages of throwing a new one together...bouncing basic set lists around and looking for a bassist and singer...hopefully one without a music stand with a floodlight :Loser: this time....



please, lord... :angel:

:guitar:

[GAR]

That drummer from the fest, he's incredibly good. I checked those myspace videos from the band in the 80's and I don't get the whole "bill" thing.

They should be celebrating the drummer! And he's still alive..

[Fuct Jup]

I play guitar in a acoustic band right now (2 guitars and a singer). We are great friends and have been playing together for years. We have a great time!

[THEDOCTOR]

I get with a few buddies here and there and show them songs Ive been writing and singing and they help me put music and record them . I call my little nonexistent band Mr Slamdawg. Its all for fun, may do some internet shit with it someday. Got tired of dealing with a band,and some asshole who is tone deaf trying to tell me how to sing,takeing away the joy I feel from doing just that.Or "you can't play that,it doesn't fit our 'style'."
Its better to just get with someone you can trust and elimnate factor asshole from your music.

[ZahZoo]

I'm still a member of Mountain Wood, a southern rock band from the SF Bay area... although we went on a short break back in July of 1985 after 3+ years of touring/club performances 7 days a week... we still haven't decided we've had enough time away from it yet. We'll be back bigger and better than before...

I jam here and there & do some engineering projects/live sound here and there. Not really interested in doing any full time work with a band anymore. Don't have the patience or tolerance to deal with a bunch of childish adults/artists... I'd rather spend that energy on my kids...

Thanks for the confession. Stop spamming good threads with this shit.

Somehow,that doesn't surprise me...:hee:

[Diamondjimi]

Yeah, I play in a band. We've released 1 album(cd) and we're in pre-production for our second one right now.
My singer (who fortunately doesn't suffer from L.S.D.) and myself are the principal songwriters for the band. I also handle the production & engineering and mixing in our own studio.

[jhale667]

And it sounds pretty damn good, I can attest. :baaa:

[Diamondjimi]

Thanks Brutha!
Wait 'til ya hear the next one. It kicks twice as much ass!!! ;)

Unfortunately, he didn't get Cubase.

There will be no "drums."

[jhale667]

That's genuinely a cute wish-think statement.

Doubting you've heard his stuff yet, so you're likely not qualified to make that statement. I have, and the dude knows what he's doing.
But since you're stalking him now too, imagine you'll hear it for yourself soon enough...



I bet you're a fun guy in real-life once you leave your Internet RockARTIST persona logged off!

Conversely, one imagines your Internet DOUCHEbag persona carries over to real life...:rolleyes:

You don't have a "band."

Yeah....I've seen one his band's vids, btw. Nice try.

How's the weather in Bitterville today? :lmao:

[GAR]

Over the last couple years, I've seen like the first 20 seconds as a courtesy-view of everyone's band or demo thing you guys have posted.

I don't recall him having done anything. So fail me for that one like I give a shit to even do a search on his posts of what you're talking about Jay.

[jhale667]

But if you haven't, you clearly don't know what the fuck you're talking about, do you? So yeah, once again you fail.

[Blackflag]

What is this? My imaginary poseur fag band is better than your imaginary poseur fag band? You all need to grow up.

[GAR]

I do. I fail to give a shit if you are going to contradict me while denying any proof.

Again, I have nothing to proove: you are the one saying "oh yeah, he's got a band I heard it."

You didn't save it to your favorites? I'm offended. But that's right, you've moved on to stalking DJ. Forgot for a sec.

Yeah, and since YOU brought it up, how many shows were you asked to fly in to play this year (and next), jerkoff? Could you even make it through 'Mary had a little lamb' without rehearsal?

That sucks, sorry to hear that, dude. :(
I popped a metacarpal in my right hand a few years back. The docs told me if they casted it, I was going to lose a lot of mobility in my pinky, which was not an option, as I use it for volume swells - so I refused to let them put a cast on my hand.

Splinted it for the whole 6 weeks, taking it off every few days and using it to ensure I retained mobility. Which hurt like hell! :pullinghair: Fortunately it healed almost perfectly, except that knuckle is now pretty much flat as a pancake...still works though!

:biggrin:

[letsrock]

How?..

While stationed in Phoenix we went up to Flagstaff for a winter break one weekend. We got stupid trashed and still went sledding at 1am. Well everythign turned to ice. I went down and hit a tree. I had put my left hand out (stupid) and busted my hand to shreds, wrist, and elbow.

Lesson learned: never try to stop your body weight moving at a fast speed with your hand. The tree one.

But on a side note, the Jack Daniels numbed the pain, and the next day my left hand was 3 times its normal size.

The Air Force basically told me that it was the only option. So i was fucked either way. I had the mobility afterwards, but now over the years, it just doesnt work. Heck even working with small parts like screws for a laptop is a chore. The dexterity in that hand is not what it once was.

[Blackflag]

That's fucked up.

[jhale667]

Yeah, once-broken bones do seem to get arthritic more quickly, even prematurely. Unfortunately, that's probably why you're losing dexterity over time, as bad as that break was....:( Again, my condolences, dude.

But I can totally see how that'd happen -the busted pinky still hurts occasionally, and an ankle I broke when I was 19 still bothers the shit out of me occasionally. Sucks.

[hideyoursheep]

That's fucked up.


You're right....

Oh man I feel for you. Have you looked into the Arthritis Foundation to see if they can help? I don't have arthritis (yet) but my hands swell after playing 2 and 3 nights in a row on top of all the regular rehearsing.

I have my solo thing that is mainly recording right now. Danny Isaacs Band plays 4 hour nights almost every weekend. On top of that, my other band (Album Cover) is playing Queensryche's Operation Mindcrime in it's entirety in a few weeks. Rehearsals are long and there is a lot of homework for it too. Most nights, my wife has 2 small buckets of ice water waiting on me when I get home. I sit there from 4-5 a.m. soaking my hands, drinking beer and laughing at Rev. Kerney Thomas on BET. Hands usually still hurt on Sunday though.

Here is a version of Mr. Brownstone DIB recorded for shits and giggles: MEGAUPLOAD - The leading online storage and file delivery service (http://www.megaupload.com/?d=5EJPYL25)

I'm in a band !

Quit the Murder junkies last year and am writing and recording demos for a new record with my old band Jackass (yes, we were called that before the tv show and no, we're not that rotten awful stinking shitty band from LA*).

Here's some MJs videos.

In this clip, you'll not here much in the way of vocals, but the guitar is pretty decent sounding for cam audio. Also, when I do finally make the frame you'll see me using the one handed tapping technique I learned from J. Hale and Gar back when they used to be in love. They were my parents, and I'm just all tore up inside about all this fighting. Can't you guys just get along for once, for me ? It's my birthday next week.

[Diamondjimi]

Can't you guys just get along for once, for me ? It's my birthday next week.



Pure comedy, right there!

[jhale667]

Hey, and it's my birthday this week! (Same day as DLR, btw!)

I'm from the Cincy area and I say it's baaaaad.

I've never heard of you guys, jackassrock. Where did you play?

[hideyoursheep]

Where are you now?

[jackassrock]

Jackass was around from about 2000 till 2005 when I joined the Murder Junkies. We played the Clifton and Downtown bars, the fireworks, Oktoberfest, and the like. We did a little midwest/east coast touring, and released a CD in '03 that did pretty well for an indie lable (my own, Mulepower). We also were the default opener for 80s metal bands back then and did gigs at Top Cats, Southgate House, and Sudsy's with the likes of Faster Pussycat, Every Mother's Nightmare, Pretty Boy Floyd, Kings X, etc. and newer rock acts like The Datsuns, Buckethead, and McKlusky.

Joining the MJs put a stop to that though. With the fairly constant touring it was hard keeping it together at home, playing music was tough to organize, as was finding work for short periods in between tours, so I got out.

Jackass is back, in a matter of speaking, we're playing, but I'm looking for a second guitarist who plays slide to replace the guy on lap steel that we had previously. He just couldn't keep up on the guitar when the steel wasn't in use. I'm looking for a traditional "lead guitar player" to handle different voicings, fills and licks during the vocal, and that sort of thing while I sing. So far the search is going slow.

Meanwhile, I'm writing and recording for a new record to be released in the spring. Here's a brand new one that I recorded in the practice spot with Pro Tools 7LE. The bass player sings it cause it's more his style vocally than mine, except the choruses... moi. I'd say it's a pretty good demo anyway, but the finished product should rock pretty hard. Here's a link to a soundclick page where I hosted the tune, if you are so inclined to listen.

It's hard enough to keep 4 or 5 guys focused for long periods of time. Outside bullshit from wives and girlfriends are kryptonite to bands.

Maybe you've been looking in the wrong places? What are you doing that you want slide work done?

Not going to download anything, sorry. Are you back in Cincy now?

[letsrock]

HYS,

Question. Is the Cincy area supportive of more R&R or country?
I know the Cleveland area has a raging hard on for classic rock.
What is the support for a good rock band like in Cincy?

John

[jackassrock]

Yeah, I'm back in Cincinnati.

The scene here really is about the indie, garage thing with a helping of country and roots rock. Bands like The Buffalo Killers, Wussy, The Chocolate Horse, The Heartless Bastards (recently relocated in Austin) are cincy based and doing pretty well for themselves.

Of course there's a little bit of everything going on, but hard rock and metal are not the most popular genres in town.

Do you have to download that track ? I thought you could listen to it there.

[rocknrolldork]

Wussy

Mark Messerly is in that band yes? Are Dave Purcell and the guys from Pike 27 still around?

[jackassrock]

Yeah, Mark is still with them, but they got a new drummer. I haven't heard about Pike 27 in a few years, but they played some gigs with us back 5 years or so ago. I remember that band.

[VanHalenFan5150]

I'm in a band that I started this year in high-school. It's called MSA-5150.

Right now it's just me on lead guitar and backing vocals and my friend Jon on bass and backing vocals.

I'm an idiot.:0

Yes, you can listen there....which I will in a few..

John Depends on where you go, I guess. I haven't done the club thing since......fuck, I can't remember exactly. 3 or 4 years?

If you have a diverse setlist, you can go anywhere. Or nowhere if you so desire. If you stick with one style, you'd better find a booking agent and be willing to travel. The difference is how much scratch you keep at the end of the night/weekend/week or whatever. You'd do it for free at first, then....$$$$$$$$$.

[hideyoursheep]

It's really all about what the club owner wants.

I hate country, but I've played it. Never exclusively. Always room for some SRV and shit like that.;)

[hideyoursheep]

Yeah, I'm back in Cincinnati.


Then we're neighbors.:D

[jackassrock]

Then we're neighbors.:D

Do you play slide ?

[Nitro Express]

Ever since i saw that Jennifer Aniston pic i've been having ideas.

The Rolling Stone cover. Who could forget! If a geni popped out of a bottle and said "Who do you want to fuck?" My first choice would be Jen.

[hideyoursheep]

Do you play slide ?:umm:

Maybe...
