Bass players,
sometimes you gotta have em.


LOL amen to that.

But if I can figure a way to get that nice broad spectral range and driving beat without one, there is a certain someone I know who is gonna be doing his posing and late-showing-up-if-at-all-and-then-maybe-if-we’re-lucky-sober routine back in the basement.

And don’t get me started on drummers. I’m convinced people play drums to mask the voices in their head.

Oh... my... God... how did I miss them?

I just downloaded Design Your Universe from Amazon.

Mind = Blown

They aren’t very popular in the US so I gotta always bring them up every chance I get. They are working on a new studio album now due to release early next year.

In the mean time, check out MaYaN. Members of Epica, Kamelot and Sons of Seasons got together mid-tour to put together a pretty awesome band.

Thanks mnehring! I’m all about new music. Had Sevendust’s latest on constant rotation lately, but now Lajon has to share time with Simone!

as far as GWAR is concerned, they were very tongue in cheek

Totally. I saw an interview with them some time ago. The interviewer mentioned how astonished he was that they were nice, clean-cut young men (and a woman, if I remember right).

The lead singer said, approximately, "What, do you think we sleep in our stage gear? It's an ACT, dumba$$!"

Never been to one of their shows. Struck me as a spectacle to be seen, albeit from a distance.

Thank you

That was really cool. I’d never seen Apocalyptica before.

“Actually, it was....and I offer Keith Richards as my evidence.”

Actually, you’re wrong. Only God knows why Keith Richards is still alive after all the drugs and booze. The guy had his Senior Discount Card at McDonalds in 1985.

A real mystery.

Ah,,, Thunderfingers. He is missed.

It’s probably a bad idea to do coke when you’re at heart attack age.

Ain’t Metal, but try this:

Too Funny! I remember watching Liberace playing the same tune, many years ago. :)

“Oops just realized you are a drummer.”

Yea, I can’t decide on whether to use my 5 piece TriAxis
or my 3 piece Marshall. I guess I could use my Fender Twin
trap set. Just got a new Ibanez Premium high hat to go with
my old Gibson LesPaul and Fender strat mounted roto toms.
Do they even make roto toms any more?
