  1. That's EXACTLY why the Canadian music "scene" has failed. Labels [indie or major] have signed an artist, took them aside and said that they have to axe certain members... The artist is the one that was signed, not "the band".
  2. Funny how a pay cheque can turn a musician into an employee...
  3. So??? Then she should know better by now. I don't yap through my wife's shows. Sorry. I'm kinda grumpy t'day. ;)
  4. :angry: If that was my wife yappin' through a show I'd punch her in the neck. But then she'd probably break my noise...again!!! ;)
  5. So put down the dammed keyboard and go get yer bass!!!!
  6. Oops. my bad. Still though....
  7. Just imagine your fingers are a little kid skipping down the street. ...and BTW It's in Eb. The E is tuned down to D.
  8. ;) Thanx. That really means a lot to me!!! I play like me or I don't play. Does that make sence??? I like to play melodically and I was asked to play straight 8ths...I'm not a robot. In a cover band if it's the bass part yes by all means but new, fresh music...no. I probably would have entertained the idea if I was asked but I was told.
  9. Seriously. We all knew Matt was the talent and we were sidemen. Beautiful Midnight rubbed me the wrong way so I bailed.I was asked to play a certain way that wasn't natural for me and I left. Simple as that.
  10. By quitting. ;)
  11. Matt played the structure and left us up to our own devices.
  12. Wow!!! Thanx!!! As far as us being in touch... he's a series of 1's and 0's on my Myspace.... ;)
  13. I'm neither cool or named Ace so that doesn't apply. ...we should get a room... ;)
  14. Nope. Too cliche...
  15. I'm actually partial to creepers myself...
  16. Weirdo.... :angry: ;)
  17. Why don't you just comb my back hair over the top of my bald ass melon, wipe the drool off my chin and throw on some orthopedics...I'd be one hot bitch!!!!
  18. Oh come on now, you've seen me. I'd make a pretty piss poor tranny!!! ;)
  19. I'm not "bi" anything... ;)
  20. Mmmm maybe "This place sux. I wanna dance to a pre-programed robotic beat whacked outta my skull on some home made chemical that I got from a tranny in the bathroom and pee myself in the cab on the way home." ...or something like that. ;)
  21. I asked Matt to give me a call....Hell, I'm in like Flynn as soon as he picks up the phone.
  22. Ian was almost always "on".I think I can count on 1 finger the times he wasn't!!! ;) We clicked right off the bat...haven't spoken to him since I left really. Monitor guys use to scratch their heads when I told them all I needed was Ians kick. No vocal no me no nuthin'...just Ians kick.
  23. ...it's because I wrote the bass part. In my time I've played "Brown Eyed Girl" a million times...I didn't write it.Therefore no passion. I'm gonna say something that makes me REALLY uncomfortable... I'm a pretty unique bass player. Not too many people "get" what I've played. It's not a boast, it's a fact.I'm a weirdo. ;)
  24. Very nice indeed. Too bad the punters couldn't shut up long enough to listen to you. I hate when they do that. "Oh' there's a BAND???" Good job. ;)
  25. Well all I needed in my monitors was Ians kick.... ...In the words of Geddy Lee "Well, I'm a professional, eh". Bonus points if you know where that's from... ;)
