"No, I'm not turning my guitar down! Just crank the ^#$%ing monitors up..."
"Hey, rules are rules ... no chicks in the green room with their shirts on..."
Q: "Why did you ask the cocktail waitress for a SODA pop?"
A: "I just wanted a straw, man."
...Ahhh, the good old club circuit...

 

[teddancin]

No No, seriously guys, my drums are WAY too low in the mix.... Oh yeah, being that we're all here recording anyway, I think it's a good time to go over some of the songs I wrote on my spare time.... no, I'm not KIDDING! This isn't funny...... There's no need for that type of language here guys...... (gunshot)... (sweet silence)

 

[llornkcor]

ahhh yes, the ole club scene...

I havent played live in a club for some years, I guess I just had too much of drunk frat boys spilling beers into the monitors and knockin' the mic/stand into my mouth while I'm singing... playing right next to the drums, crammed up against the guitar amp, cause there's no other room for anything, being careful not to swing the head of my bass guitar to far to the left, cause it would knock the drum cymbal stand over...

hmmm.. I do miss all the chicks, tho...


peace-

Ahh, so this is where you guys are hiding....okay, remember the agreement, if you come back to the room and there's a towel by the door, then I got lucky and you get the van. If I come back and there's a towel by the.....

lol....I remember the roadie days...
If there was a girl in the room...YOU SHARED!! lmao!

Roadies had fun waving the backstage pass around...getting all the offers of "I'll do anything for that pass" and us saying "I bet you would"

yeah O, a little access for a little access. the barter system.

 

[algorhythm]

Here's where I admit I was never a roadie. I was da bass player....

 

[llornkcor]

I was actually a bit of everything.. mostly bass player/sound engineer/roadie.

I do not miss having to run sound at the same time as playing bass...
