Members BlueStrat Posted March 31, 2006 Members Posted March 31, 2006 I hope you don't write the copy for your website. But seriously, why would you make a CD you don't intend to promote with a band? :confused:

Dude, ease up, that was a joke (hence the use of the icon). Your original post was a bit scattered and hard to read, that's all. You must be a drummer, since you apparently don't seem to get jokes or posess a sense of humor, very typical of a guy who isn't a musician at all but merely sits on stage with them trying to keep up. (That was a joke, too. Since you'e a drummer, I thought I'd better explain it.)
Members Beachbum Posted April 1, 2006 Members Posted April 1, 2006 Welcome to the board, Haltonhills. You're new so kind of like Bluestrat said, don't take things too personally. This place can be a lot like a self-cleaning oven. A lot of people will turn on you when you first arrive, but just wait awhile and they'll eventually turn on each other. They're just having fun. Have fun here too!
