Sorry, Trace, there is no class in this thread unfortunately. I'm taking full advantage of a sad situation and trying to inject a little humor into it. Of course pimping my band as well ;)

I wish you the best though :)

This is the funniest thread Ive read in a long time on here and sure beats the hell out of POLITICS.

I think my motto applies to just about every situation mentioned in this thread:

Adapt, overcome OR step aside.

Auditions are this Wednesday and next week. We'll add more if needed.

Did I mention this is a cool gig? Ladies and gents get in touch.

Happy Holidays to you all.

Jeff,

Peter Jogo does some impressive work. He will shoot you straight, give you a fair assessment and whether he can do it or not.

Thats too bad about your guitar...must have been a sick feeling. Hope you can get it fixed.

State College Band: Keys or interesting instrument/combo

A newly formed State College band is looking for a keyboard player or possibly a multi-instrumentalist. It would be easier to say what we will NOT be playing, instead of what we WILL be playing: We ARE NOT a pop, pop/rock, hip-hop or anything remotely heavy or metal. We are former members of the ol...

Fantastic! Great, great news. Glad you got your gear back and doubly glad the guy was caught. I hope they throw the book at him.

Another musician? *shakes head* Thats about as low as it gets.

Pretty sweet snare there. Hows it sound compared to your wood snares? How'd you close the seam? Thanks, Rob. The seam is welded. Its a total "players" drum. I have stainless, brass, copper and titanium snares and now this aluminum. The shell is extremely thin ~3/32 so there is a nice warm...

A few more custom drum builds

I had some time to make these over the holidays - a 6.5 x 14 aluminum snare and a stainless steel set of hi hats. The snare turned out exceptionally well: Drawing the shell: http://c3.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/images02/146/l_3738fd25096847f68864f9ec4ffd64e2.jpg All the parts before assembly: http://c...

Re: Show us your prized musical posession!

I was a Led Zeppelin fan and always wanted a Ludwig 3 ply maple green sparkle Bonham kit from the early seventies identical to his famous recording kit that produced so many classic tunes. With a little luck, I got my wish. It sounds huge and is a complete blast to play. How about you? That kit is ...

Contracts kiddies! Verbal agreements mean nothing in today's struggling music market. It used to be as simple as a handshake and a verbal confirmation.
