We had a guy try out for singing via youtube because he had stuff he'd written and wanted us to hear. We watched the video and it was so bad it was funny. He wrote lyrics to a song that was one part emo and one part growling ... with no backing music (who knows if he was in tune?!). He recorded...

My dad got me my bass 11 years ago (I was 15 then) because he wanted me to learn the bass and so I would stop playing his custom P. We looked at lots of different ones and came across this beautiful black Kawai RB865A. We both fell in love with it at the store even though we hadn't heard of it...
