Members Lee Flier Posted July 22, 2005 Members Share Posted July 22, 2005 Greetings fellow band members! If you play in a band, this is the place to discuss all those things that are unique to bands - from finding the right personnel, to developing your own sound, crazy gig stories, advice on getting along with your bandmates, where you can find a muzzle for your lead singer's girlfriend, pretty much the whole gamut. Whether you're a weekend bar band veteran, an original indie band, just starting your first band or have been together forever... we've all probably got a lot to talk about! I also hope to eventually turn this forum into a resource that will help bands promote themselves. Down the road, I'd like to put together a gig calendar and other things that will be helpful in getting the word out about all of our respective bands. So stay tuned for more on that. A bit about me... I play guitar and am a co-writer in an independent rock band called What The...? We've been together for 4 years and feel really fortunate to have gotten together, as we get along great both musically and personally. More on that later too, I'm sure. As far as forum "rules," let's just stick with the obvious stuff: no posting porn, spam or flooding, and no personal attacks. Let's just show some basic respect for each other, and it'll all be good. Let's also keep things more or less focused on the topic! Looking forward to getting to know all of you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Caevan O'Sh!te Posted July 25, 2005 Members Share Posted July 25, 2005 A "Backstage With the Band"-Forum? What the... ? "Backstage With the Band"? Where's Robbie Robertson? Are they backing Dylan tanight? Seriously (as if all that wasn't seriously bad enough), hi and how are you today, Miss Flier? How's things with your band? I hope that Erik makes some appearances over here, he'll likely make a great addition with his road-reports and updatish threads... Not to mention that it might come in handy to have someone who can speak, read, and write Blickum around... and, hey, he hates smilies! ehr, I mean, -cool- I need to get a band of my own, so that I'm not just crashing the party here... !

Drummers are such flakes sometimes. " How do you get a drummer off your front porch? Pay him for the PIZZA! You can sub bass player or lead vocalist as well. LOL.
