Yes, I know it's censored. I didn't censor it. I still think it's fucking funny. See? I can write fuck.
There was a horrible accident where the bus a band was in went over the side of a cliff. 4 musicians and 1 drummer died.
Hey. You be nice to drummers. And remember that if you air drum to Def Leppard and you use both arms, you're an asshole.
What the fuck did I read??
Suspicious contempt for the rhythm section here.
Are you saying the drummer is a little wuss that can't fight? Because get that fucker out here in the parking lot.
We'll beat him like a kettle drum.
Me, at the opener for Bright Eyes
You have just said “I like GG Alin.” and called it a day.
Whoa. He didn't say anything about getting pissed or shit on.
fight the drummer?!
Dude. Everyone knows it’s FUCK the drummer! (They’re always the crazy one)
Plus, drummer is always more fit than the rest cause of the effort required to play. Seems like a bad idea all around.
Really knows how to give a pounding
What, i was always told the bassist is the crazy one and i can confirm as i used to be the bassist.
I've always thought that the bassist was the hottest member of the band i feel like a drummer is kind of unpredictable
Used to play in bands. Still do but I used to too.
In the one I was in in high school, some drunk ass old man ran on stage, unplugged our guitarists guitar, got behind him and started pretending he was playing it and humping him. Supported us real good
I played trumpet in a ska band in the 00s. This one time, in a small bar, things got a little rowdy and a guy ran into my trumpet while I was playing it. Hurt like a motherfucker. I spit out blood and it loosened a tooth. The other fans saw me spit out blood and started kicking the shit out of the guy on the ground. Then one dude bought me a beer to wash the blood down
Good times.
Support local bands.
I was in a punk band when I was younger. We were mid set in a shitty bar. My amp started to spaz out. Like cutting in and out every few min. This old dude jumped on stage and kicked it really hard. Patted me on the back, handed me a shot, and jumped down (all mid song). Never had a problem with that amp again. Used it for years after. Old punk rocker magic. Nothing to laugh at.r
Got any videos from these days? Always down for ska
Sorry for the shitty link, but wasn't sure how else to share it online for free, anonymously.
I've been seriously considering picking up a trumpet and starting a ska band with some of my other middle aged friends just for shits and giggles. Seems like a lot of fun.
I played trumpet in a ska band in the 00s. This one time, at band camp.
I used to sing in a post punk band. We had a drum machine. In the middle of one gig, the drum machine spazzed out and deleted all the internal memory, and started a 600bpm bossa nova loop. We played right through to the end.
i don't understand what that means but it sounds hype as fuck.
For the drum machine, definitely! But we largely kept to our tempo or maybe double. It was a free gig and we were getting paid in beers. I think it was pretty funny for the audience too. Great night.
Support more obscure artists in general, doesn't have to be local. Bandcamp is great.
This. Normally I pirate all of my music because I actually don't want to be forced to have an Internet connection to listen to stuff but I'm actually considering buying some of the stuff I pirated because the artists deserve the money.
I just buy the things that I can't pirate. I save money and end up supporting small artists.
I was a local bassist and I support this message.
I used to love big arena shows until I saw a famous band do a three night stand at a small bar/club style venue. After that, I started going to shows of bands/performers I hadn't heard of. Changing how I thought of shows, where before I thought of it as an event like going to see a theatre play, to thinking about them similarly to how I'd think of going to the movie theater made the whole live scene seem more accessible and more fun. I hope when my kids are older we can start going to more shows again.
I read an article that said being in a band is less appealing to kids these days and that being an influencer is more popular than wanting to be a Rockstar. I hope it's just "old man yells at clouds" because I feel like there is always room for more local acts. Support your neighbors, go dance!
What’s a three night stand?? One night stand times three?
Pretty much, they play at the same club for three nights
I always buy merch as it's worth more than any amount a band earns from streaming. I wish more bands have shirts that aren't just black though. I'd estimate only a quarter of the artists I've seen have shirts of a different color.
Funny. Because I am a messy person, I tend to prefer black shirts and I hate it when a band only has white ones.
If you listen to the right bands they always have black shirts ;)
Yeah, white would really be the wrong alternative.
Depending on the complexity of the details, gimmie reds, blues, orange or pink...
+1 because you can say fuck.
Sounds like a great night out!
Could you not write fuck so much please?
But seriously, support local in general.
“Thanks a lot you shit-brained, fuck-faced, ball breaking, duck fucking pain in the ass.”
This is almost as good as an average curse youd say in hungarian or polish.
Could you not write fuck so much please?
Good memories, I regret nothing.
This is how I met my first wife.
Was she the drummer?
fuckfuckfuckfuckfuckfuck fucking fucking myself
I used to throw back nickels at them.
So this is all your fault then
