    how to tell the drummer??????

    this^^^^ I think in the long run you will be better served by making this about both of you rather than just him. The two of you getting together will make you a stronger unit and the whole band will benefit from that.

    lead vocals on drums

    The Eagles and Genesis/Phil Collins have made it work. I see what you are saying though, a good front man can really make a band.

    Thinking about leave my praise/worship band

    I would leave the band. Play what makes you happy and you can influence people by the way the way you live your life.

    Nerves...how do you deal with them

    It definitely gets easier the more you play. When I first started gigging I stared at my feet all night and after the 5th or 6th gig I started to get more comfortable. Keep gigging and you'll be fine.

    Too Loud?

    If the person paying you says it's too loud then you are too loud. Other's opinions don't matter as much to me.

    what to do?

    I'm not sure I fully understand what you're asking here but with a passive DI you will plug your instrument cable into the input and then run a mic cable from the xlr output on the DI to the input on the mixing board. You should also be able to use the 1/4" output to go to your amp if you also...

    HUGE Gig Coming Up, Possibly Going on Tour

    Good luck! I hope it works out for you. I'm in the DC area too so let us know if you get the tour. I'd like to show some support to a fellow TB'er.

    Van Halen without Michael Anthony

    I think Eddie is a marketing genius. He is going to make soooo much more money in about 5 years when the "real" reunion with MA, Sammy and Dave takes place. This tour was just a teaser and my guess is that MA and Sammy are in on the whole thing. They all want to keep the money train...

    From the outside this doesn't sound so bad. If you join the band now you can have some input on the new drummer.

    Would you be open to the idea of being in a band with a member of your family ?

    Ampeg SVT-15E

    I just recently picked up one of these cabs and I love it. I use mine with a SVTIII Pro and it sounds great. I like it better than my Aguilar 212. I'm looking for another one to pair up with it.

    Have you ever played on a roof top ?

    Yep. Played a gig in DC on a rooftop that overlooked the White House. We had to get background checks ahead of time and there were Secret Service guys on the buildings around us. It was pretty cool.

    Sounds good! I just might do that, I live a little over an hour from there and it would be an easy drive. I'd like to see a fellow TB'er throw it down! I'll let you know either way what's going on.

    why is it panned to the right :/

    DWBass has it right. Your adapter is 1/4" stereo to 1/8" stereo. You will still need a 1/4" mono to 1/4" stereo adapter or you may even be able to find a 1/4" mono to 1/8" stereo adapter. I'm not sure if you live near a Radio Shack but they usually have adapters of all kinds.

    Mistakes bands make......

    Not starting a mailing list at the first gig...well, maybe not the biggest mistake but one that could cost you money and gigs down the road. Especially for a cover band. Getting a good turn-out is critical to getting good gigs and making money. I've seen a bunch of average bands that get the...

    How do you rise above the other bands?

    I'm with you on this one! There was a band around here that sounded EXACTLY the same on every song. It was hard for me to tell when one song ended and the next one started. Needless to say, I didn't stay very long.

    Need advice please. How to break the news that I'm quitting...

    Honesty is usually the best policy. Just tell them you enjoyed your time with them but have decided to move on. They might be a little upset at first but I'm sure they will respect you more if you're honest.
