Members WhiplashBand Posted May 14, 2014 Members Share Posted May 14, 2014 What happened to it? Where did it end up? Who has/had it last? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Drumstix101 Posted May 14, 2014 Members Share Posted May 14, 2014 Eyehearya was the last person that was supposed to have it. The general thought was, it was gone forever and Race was in the process of starting a new one. But that, along with a lot of members are a distant memory.

Members 1001gear Posted May 15, 2014 Members Share Posted May 15, 2014 He reported back they had to abandon that and that they had to start from scratch out west or something. Hope they're doin' alright. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members fusionfunk Posted May 15, 2014 Members Share Posted May 15, 2014 (edited) Last I remember, Box-O-Rocks was living way north right by the Canadian border. I want to say like Montana, Idaho or Washington state? Edited May 15, 2014 by fusionfunk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members race81 Posted May 15, 2014 Members Share Posted May 15, 2014 The original box died somewhere out in arizona I believe, when a member who I cant remember exactly, said who couldnt afford to ship it somewhere...???? I was going to start a new one, but the lack of members here makes it just more likely to fail. Great idea.....failed by a deadbeat member.

Members Voltan Posted May 16, 2014 Members Share Posted May 16, 2014 i remember that... i never participated but it was a very cool concept... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Dendy Jarrett Posted May 16, 2014 Members Share Posted May 16, 2014 Let's start another!?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Voltan Posted May 16, 2014 Members Share Posted May 16, 2014 it's a thought... but so is relative anonymity... if we did start another one, realistically what kind of shipping/mailing charges are we looking at? and what, if any, were the rools of engagement?

Members race81 Posted May 16, 2014 Members Share Posted May 16, 2014 When the box passed through our house many moons ago, it was nearly 16x14 in size. When I shipped it, it was nearly $20 cost. I would say if you cant afford $30 to ship one somewhere, there is no use in you participating. I got a bottom paiste pst high hat cymbal out of it, packed it back up with a splash that I had modified to be a trash splash, some brackets and odds and ends and sent it on its way. It cost me more to ship it than what I got out of it, but thats never been the point. It was suppose to be a way to help, or give back, until someone ruins it. To many greedy people out there. We could still start one back up, all 5 or 6 of us here could participate....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members WhiplashBand Posted May 17, 2014 Author Members Share Posted May 17, 2014 I'd be down for doing another one. I don't have enough to start it, but could/would contribute if it came my way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Dendy Jarrett Posted May 17, 2014 Members Share Posted May 17, 2014 Look, I'll step this up a notch. You guys see if you can rally some of the old-timers back. Get us about 20 that want to participate and I'll start this with something extra nice. D 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members twosticks Posted May 17, 2014 Members Share Posted May 17, 2014 I was gonna concur with the others about what happened to the old box, it was somewhere out west and the member couldn't afford to ship after a long delay. But For Dendy and helping bring back the "old Crew" I'm in! To get something, you have to give something can be the motto. And yes it should be with members that have no probs with shipping. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Gremson Posted May 18, 2014 Members Share Posted May 18, 2014 That box was a lot of fun. I got a great trashcrash out of it that Mark made. I'd love to be a part of it again if enough people are involved. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members cdawg Posted May 18, 2014 Members Share Posted May 18, 2014 it's a thought... but so is relative anonymity... if we did start another one' date=' realistically what kind of shipping/mailing charges are we looking at? and what, if any, were the rools of engagement?[/quote'] someone made a list of who wanted it and where they were. then, we went down the list, according to distance. that way, my box came from eastern PA and i ended up shipping it to ohio (i'm in west PA.) that way it kept shipping costs down. i think i paid about $10. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
