well once we were about to play live on stage in our home town in front of one of the biggest crowds we've ever had. well, they'd all turned up to see Slayer who we were supporting (coz their other support group dropped out) and Pryce (our drummer) cut his thumb and finger opening a beer can and refused to play. he said, and i quote, '' its an injury, and injuries disrupt my artistic aura, and it hurts like hell dude!''. bullshit i know. especially coming from a guy with dyed red dreadlocks and a tatto of the grim reaper smoking a joint on his shoulder, buts that not the point. anyway we ended up having to go up to Slayer and say that we couldnt play because our drummer was 'hurt', but they refused to let us back out, so we had to go into the crowd and ask if there were any drummers! luckily there were quite a few but he didnt know any of our songs properly, and seeing as we rely on our drummer to keep us in time, we sounded pretty damn bad, and only did 3 songs before Slayer came out early to perform and get us off!
so basically it was down to our wussy drummer that we screwed up our biggest oppurtunity to make the big time.
er, ever thought about joining a new band bloomi???
now THAT sucks.really.me,i'd never give up te chance to perform unless i was crippled or paralysed i love it too much
i dunno it's like...guy drummers are more in demand,ppl think they're better..so...*sigh* when i was 7,i went to ask this teacher to teach me drums n he was like, "i dun teach girls,they shldnt even be thinkin to learing the drums - that's for the guys alone. i was FURIOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! then i learnt by myself,taught myself damn him i dun need him *ranting*
not in a band right now...i used t be in a rock/goth kinda band -we named ourselves 'the vampire lestat' not v original but we all love lestat but we disbanded went our separate ways..my girl friends wanna form a band but it'll be so pop dun hv anyth against it but pop dun allow me to really hv as much fun n dun allow me to hv room to expand on my playing!!*sigh*
cool! i dont see how you can go from goth to pop though. pop drumbeats are also pretty simplistic most of the time so i agree it wouldnt help you much. i play guitar for a mellow rap metal band called Lead Breakfast but we haven't got a permanent drummer at the moment which really sucks.
hey i just realised, this has really taken my mind off 'I think im getting fat''!! thank god 4 the OTF!!!
yeah that's why i don't like to go for pop..but ive auditioned for this role as a drummer in an all-girl rock band in this tv miniseries....hope i get in *fingers crossed* but the filming'll take place for more than 1/2 my sch yr so...not v likely to get that lead role..
ha yeah of course - we drummers (ESP girl drummers) rock hahaha...aww dun worry we love you other players too
oh yeah the OTF rules!!!!
