it only happened once but in our old practice space i was talking with my hands like i always do and pointed at a cd player that was playing with the volume all way down and it started playing over my amp. i had no contact with the cd player whatsoever. I still have no idea how it did it and...

i almost always have drinks before i go on stage, but then again i play punk rock so if i screw up it doesnt really matter

Right away i want to say that this was VERY dumb on my part. i was with my old band and we played a house/barn party. when we got there i found out we were third so i decided its time to start drinkin. normally i can handle my drink pretty well. but this time by the time i got on stage i was...

I've had the same question a thousand times (why does yours only have four strings) to which i usually respond "I only need four strings to sound cool, unlike other tards" (pointing at my guitarist)

i think most people missed the point of the orignal post, this was a beatles cover band in what sounds like a metal type bar. then the guy was bitchin about not makin much money. I dont think he was really bashin on cover bands (even though i would personally) The owner books any band no...

I played with a band a couple weeks ago called moonshine missile (excellent band, hillbilly punk) anyway the entire band went over to their bass players house for burritos before the show, when they got to the venue the guitar player was lleaking some nasty gas. the rest of the band made shure...

Count me in on this fun.... but i make stupid faces no matter what i'm doing

"dude, you are way to drunk to go onstage right now" So what?? I'm a bass player. "good point, but we'd better turn his amp off again"

good point, a band has to know wher they fit and where they dont. I play in a punk band, so i try not to book shows a jazz bars. when i was in a metal band i didnt book shows at top 40 bars. you gotta know where to draw the line. i mean a show is a show, but you cant expect everyone to like you...

I once tried to throw my bass behind me and the wireless pack i was using got caught on my shirt. my bass smacked me right in the back of the head, i almost passed out onstage. i didnt notice until after our set that i had a lot of blood on the side of my facee/neck and all down the back of my...

I'm a lefty but i play right because when i learned i was to lazy to switch the strings around. glad to see there's other leftys like me

i filed down the nut on mine and put a 5 string set on it, thats when i was playing in drop b (BABG) but in this band i use standard tuning. But with those thicker gauge strings i get an ultra beefy tone out of it.

I'd probably jump on that deal if i didnt just buy a t-bird two weeks ago. even though i'd hate to say it, rent is slightly more important. only slightly.

Roto 77s on a t-bird you say? I may try that, on my t-bird to be precise. thanks for the input

lookin all stupid and scraggly here
