CLT: Sufferer and the Witness/Appeal to Reason by Rise Against. And a CD of stuff I've never heard, because one of my friends decided only listening to two bands is sad
They're within a relatively close distance, like 40 minute drive. We're visiting family there anyway.
And have fun with the college apartment! What are you majoring in?
Today I get to help my friend's dad setup for his gig then run the lights again. Make a little bit of money.
Then I have to fill out a 23 page application for my license to work. I should be starting in a little over a week.
So question for those of you who are playing with a group: How did you go about finding said group? I mean just posting an ad on craigslist or something isn't an option for me, and I've been asking around but no luck :/
At Gaius: the group that I have played with in the past and am looking to form a band with in the future is 2 friends of mine. I was friends with the one guy who happened to play bass who introduced me to the other guy who played drums. And between the three of us we know several other musicians. We'll probably wind up as a 3 piece until we play some gigs and meet some new people around the music scene. Hopefully pickup a decent guitarist soon after. I've tried the craigslist thing many times and never got any response. Tried joinmyband and got a response and came to a couple practices but flaked out.
The best bet is to start with a friend or two and start reaching out. If you have no friends or at the very least no friends that play instruments, hang out around local music stores. Just hanging around will often create some kid of social interaction with other musicians. Perhaps they have a bulletin board or something with people in your same shoes. Maybe the store owner knows something.
Edit: Just keep in mind most people are dicks. I found that out pretty quickly if you haven't. Especially guitarists. Just don't let that discourage you from finding someone that's a decent person.
So I'm back from my marine camp It was pretty fun even though someone broke their hand, smashed up the side of a boat and someone cracked their head open. At least the water was nice and we could fish...

A band is getting ready to play a huge show, first really big show that could get them noticed. The drummer is setting up his set, and thinking "awesome, just this show and we'll be rich". The guitarist is standing around tuning, and thinking "All we have to do is play this show, then we'll be on the huge tours". The singer is lying on a couch and saying "Finally, someone else to buy my drugs for me..." And the bassist is standing there tuning and muttering "A... G... B... D..."
