I don't know why it has to be the bass player in this guy's 'Modest Proposal'. Here's the link.

Gosh I bet he gets LOTS of calls.

 

[Phalex]

If I lived closer I'd give it a shot. It's not like I have a lot on my plate for the next few years. A change of scenery might do me good.

 

[4 stringed fury]

That was amazing.

 

[Bardley]

Sounds fun.

Who's calling first?

 

[Zooberwerx]

Its okay by me provided we don't do covers.

Actually, that smacks loudly of the typical "musicians wanted" ads in our local CraigsList.

Riis

 

[GreggBummer]

Thats Really funny.

Vote that "BEST OF" on CraigsList...

Intriguing... What was the number again?

I'm too old, I guess. I personally wince to think anyone's childhood was shaped by Green Day, let alone that Husker Du is under-appreciated or that Molly Hatchet is ironic.

that's what i was thinking too!

hey, maybe he is being metaphorical? i have been in bands that didn't go much better than that....

 

[capnsandwich]

Someone was creative and bored at the same time.

Pre-1992 Green Day not only shaped my childhood (and young adulthood), but a whole generation of East Bay kids' as well.

They were pretty hot before they sold out...

But now I guess I'M the old one...

 

[Spinal Tapper]

Amazing. Simply amazing. Perhaps this guy should be a writer instead of a musician...

 

[HashbrownCOBM]

Yeah, dude needs to write a book.
Oh and off topic, how did green day sell out? All the seven inches, lp's, cd's they did up until what ever the record after dookie was (didn't buy it) sounded exactly the same. The only difference was better production. When I put the needle down on Kerplunk me and my buddy laughed our azzez off cuz we couldn't tell the difference between that and 1000 Smoothed out slappy hours (cd). Selling out is changing your music for money. They're stuff stayed exactly the same for over ten years till they got into their thirties and of course the music is gonna change. They're old like us.

Course, that's not always the case. I started out playin punk, then wuss punk like soul asylum/doughboys, then sludge rock, then into hip hop, now i'm goin back into rock and some hip hop still. But I was thinkin of startin a tribute band where everyone dresses in drag and would call it Drag Queens of the Stone Age.

Sounds like a talkbass member trying to get votes to hit the Craigslist Best Of to me

 

[Rattman]

Whoaaaa!!! That guy is pretty talented... as a SciFi or Mystery writer. .. Some pretty strange symbolisms there thou.. I don't think I'd want to hang out in his basement alone thats for sure.

 

[Mr_Sore_Fingerz]

i was reading this going "is this the classifieds for musicians or 'person seeking to fulfill secret fantasy'?" lol

 

[MEKer]

I like the "BAM" part. Joke'll be on him though cuz I'll wear my iron face over to his house and he'll bust his knuckles, black out from the pain, and then HE will spend 7 long years at my secret camp in the mountains until he accidentally strangles on a G string (hmmm, that sounds bad, better make it a D string).

Then again I'll probably not contact that psycho at all.
