Perfect band to join via Craigslist

[I am Soma]

I agree with some of what he says about practice and no excuses and family issues. But it is easier to say if you are looking to make music your life and this has been your life time goal then..... When I had my original band in the 80's I surround myself with like minded musicians who carried no baggages and could pick-up and go at a moments notice and we did.

no. no. no one should agree with anything this dude said at all. ever.

It gets better at 8:47.

^ whoa! This guy could be a member of trailer park boys.. Reminds me of the dude with the bottle glasses!

Trailer Park Boys - you mean BUBBLES? Oh he can't possibly be BUBBLES!

Bubs is someone who would be AWESOME to hang with... OTOH this Craigslist guy is that balding, bloated, doughy unemployed ass clown who shows up at the High School 5 years after he was supposed to graduate so he can show off his bondo-and-spit '78 Camaro, bowie knife, and the scar where a baby alligator almost took off a nipple.

Bubbles on the other hand has NO three drink maximum and well, as far as 420 goes... Plus I bet Bubs is a better shredder any day of the week - he WAS Alex Lifeson's guitar tech ("Liquor and Whores," anyone? and no, that's NOT a trick question.)

Gigadead - death metal for computer geeks/IT people? This epitomizes one of the primary reasons why I TalkBASS: ENTERTAINMENT.

Next thread please...

I always wondered what became of Corkey..

I just learned that John Hinckley (yes, Reagan assassin wanna-be John Hinckley) wants to ROCK!

The timing is perfect! Call me a shadchan, but I see a beautiful relationship between these two, it's positively kismet.

Where do I sign up?

 

[MojoPenguin]

"No Distortion on Bass." Then picks up a Bass and plays with Distortion... And Boy what a tone...

 

[DiabolusInMusic]

That is too funny to be made up.

"Politics are okay, but your lyrics will still be chosen for you, regardless" That's Democracy 101 for you LOL

Also...Gigadead...Megadeath...not too original of a name. I wonder if he wrote a song called "Peace stalls, but who's trying?".

 

[fclefgeoff]

I will name my new band Warfare or Whatever.

I guess heroin/crack/ecstasy/etc. is OK. I can only imagine how Les Claypool feels being dismissed before he even gets a chance to audition. I not even going to bother auditioning. I have that thing he doesn't like, A Life.

okay sorry I take back anything I agreed with

Narrow minded pinhead no talent control freak. Wouldn't last a week in the real world. Counter-culture bubble boy. I would have many more insulting things to say, but it's really not worth the time.

I know his type, have enjoyed twisting them beyond endurance many times over the years. I may just apply for a position with his "band" for the purpose of infuriating him.

I like the alcohol policy

Don't forget: "Urinate before entering. If you're drinking a beer, pee in a bucket."

Awesome, can't wait for the super-serious isolated practice sessions that ends when he says they do where we all pee in buckets.

 

[squirefan]

But...but...it worked for Barry Gordy...

 

[wintremute]

We need to know if the buckets will be provided. He may have a certain type of bucket that his years of experience has determined is the best for beer urination. I'm pretty sure plastic buckets are out, even if they're medical grade, and that metal buckets are in.

There are YouTube videos.

I think I am getting a migrane ...
