How about you try opening you eyes before making a stupid, trolling comment.
Oh, *reported*


This, also, there are vids of his band on Youtube.
And yeah, John's a damn' good player.

Dark, I never saw that Thierry post. Its funny that he is so ignorant. Good job reporting it.

Last post on a page in a big thread often gets missed, lucky Christle caught it.

yeah, not to be snide, but it's amazing what you can do with a decent job, or, if necessary, two, especially if you have solid priorities.

if you want to have a career as a musician, that kind of financial planning (i.e. figuring out how to make the kind of money you need to get the kind of gear/equipment you want) is essential - eventually instead of gear you'll need to do the same thing except to hire folks to help out, whether it be in the recording process, or the live performance aspect.

besides, you'd be amazed at how much gear you can buy if you get a decent job and stick to a budget. for most of the time that i put together my collection (and my recording studio, which isn't as glamourous but was just as expensive) i was making less than $40 k a year, and had a mortgage to take care of too.

Tis why JT is the man.

I am an unemployed 16 year old who somehow got everyhint in my sig throughout a 2 year time. I worked any odd job I could, saved al money from allowance/report cards/birthdays/Christmas, etc.

It was worth it.

now take that kind of dedication and couple it with an actual job or two - even mcd's like you said, and you've got yourself serious dough in just a few months time.
