OT Happy Birthday LaPrune!

Welcome to our community

Be a part of something great, join today!

I have zero experience playing any instruments, my rhythm makes Navin R. Johnson look like Gregory Hines, and I couldn't carry a tune in a bucket.

But I do like to get a buzz and laugh, so let me know if that's enough of a resume...
Haha. Not trying to recreate Chris and The Ponies. You would have fit in well with that project. Download my last album that I wrote, played guitar, keys, percussion, sang lead and backup vocals, and helped engineer. It's a free download. Get back to me if you think you can contribute ..hehe

Wow, I really like that.

But it needs more cowbell.

I can contribute. Not to the content (although I do have a knack for rephrasing bits of lyrics so they fit rhythms better), but to the tone of the general atmosphere.

Especially if there's free beer.

Wookee plays a mean acoustic belch and when he's really drunk the electric fart.

That's one of the only perks of being in an underrated band; free drinks anytime you play a show. I think Doug Fir is the most dangerous/generous with that. They have about 100 beers waiting in the green room for all bands. Dangerous.
 
Older Civics are about as good as you can get. I bought an 89' hatchback about a decade ago. Replaced the muffler and thats it. 5 years later sold it for $500 more than I paid for it. Civics are hot items amongst do it yourself mechanics.
And car thieves.

Prunetang: I got both CDs BTW. Thanks!

Glad they got there in a decent time frame. Just remember what I said about the EP. It was our first foray into the recording world.
 
Thanks man. It will take some time to get a new band up and running, but I'm looking forward to building something new and formidable.

Not to prod you into doing an Unecessary Cover but since your voice has such a likeness to Ray Davies...... "God''s Children" is THE great lost Kink's song. Far be it from to direct you to a song with so much potential and that has brought personal enjoyment to me. I mean.... I'm not... but I am.... I'm just kidding.... or am I? (Wink Wink.... Nudge Nudge.... Say No More!)

I will look that up. Like right now. I'm kind of waiting for a hurricane to hit, so I have nothing but time.

And just so you know, the Kinks are one of my favorite bands of all time. They have two albums in my top 20: Village Green Preservation Society and Arthur. I had never put the vocal likeness together until @riverman mentioned it. And I have no problem with that.

That one song you linked on here I thought you sounded a bit like Gordon Sumner.

I have a habit of writing songs a little bit higher in the register than I would prefer. But not trying to put a Sting vibe out there. Now, the drummer for the Police is one of the best that has ever hit the skins.

I never figured out how he got from that to Sting? And Bono supposedly chose his name from an eye glass shop..... What kind of of connections are you trying to make? At least Meatloaf makes sense. And Madonna is a pretty good stage name too. Maybe Americans are better at renaming themselves as pop icons.

He gained his nickname after his habit of wearing a black and yellow sweater with hooped stripes with the Phoenix Jazzmen. Bandleader Gordon Solomon thought he looked like a bee, which prompted the name "Sting".

I'm still trying to figure out Slypokerdog...that's lot of syllables

I figured it would like that. I wish Neil Young has changed his name to what his friends call him..... Shakey. Because you know--that's him to a tee.
