1. Went to watch a local band last night.

2. Their drummer used to play for us and told us 6 months ago they were into doing "better music".

3. Their set list is eerily similar to the one we had 10 years ago.....



Now for some USEFUL facts.

1. Never, ever do the national anthem as a guitar solo, even if you're doing Jimi Hendrix's version, because it's just hokey these days.

2. Don't ever do it as the intro to a BRITISH song, either. Nothing wrong with Britain, but you're kinda stupid if you you don't see the problem there.

3. If you insist on doing the National anthem as a guitar solo, and leading into a British song with it.....at least don't butcher the shit out of it. (god that was bad)

4. If you are in a band that has a guitar player that breaks ALL of those rules.....have the 'nads to tell him it sux and he really shouldn't play it in front of....well.....ANYONE.

Actually, Ken, on a LOT of the songs they did, the guitar player was pretty good. He hit a large majority of the leads correctly, and the drummer is bad-ass.

 

I can't fault the guys ability, as i know practically EVERY song they did.

Had I played those songs as well as he did most of the night, i would have been fairly happy about it.

 

I just think when it came to the Jimi Hendrix National Anthem.....He made some bad choices. REALLY bad choices.

 

And 4 other guys in that band didn't tell him....dude....scratch that...

 

It's ok, though.....I did.

1. Dragonflies can live up to seven years.

 

2. Al Capone's business card said he was a used furniture dealer.

 

3. The Planck instant 10 ^-43 seconds (the time it would take a photon to cross a proton) is the smallest instant the universe recognizes.

 

The universe may well be digital.

 

The Planck instant is actually eternally large, because within that instant of time the entire universe can stop.

Ahh, okay. I know when I gave up the music side of things, it was really tough for me to see the one guy I'd been in every band with, play with a new bass player. And awhile ago I read Manson say that when he saw Twiggy play with APC it was like watching an ex make out with a new guy. I thought that summed up the feeling I had had years earlier. Almost more of a jealousy thing. laugh.gif Musical partnerships can be just as strong.

 

As for the national anthem thing... i don't think ANYONE should have ever done it. I hated Jimi's version too. For me i think it's too big of a song to be loaded with feedback and all that crap. I basically hate hearing anyone do it without the full reverance it deserves. I'll stop now before this gets bumped to that other forum. laugh.gif

I feel ya all the way Necro yes.gif I went over spring break and watched my old band with a new drummer, and it wasn't easy at all! Especially considering the fact that my best friend and I started this band together and put so much time and energy into it. But it all came to a halt when I ended up in the hospital having surgery, and everything changed. Still, it's hard for me to hear someone else playing songs I wrote the drum parts for! Oh well, I try my best to be a good sport trink39.gif
