How're your wedding plans coming along?

(, Mon 28 Mar 2011, 15:37, Reply)
most stuff is sorted
don't know what people complain about. Organising a wedding is a piece of piss. And that's not because my mrs is doing everything.

I've got to make some invitations at some point and get my suit tailored next. Need to get in touch with the band and get them to learn a song or two as well.

Don't they know any songs?
What kind of a band are they?!! AHAHAHAHAHHA

to continue with your comical misunderstanding
a band that doesn't know any songs = a band like mine

That was always my problem with Electric Head Funk.
No actual songs at all, just psychedelic noodling based on a few staple riffs. It's amazing how we got away with it, to be honest.

that's an accepted way of performing though
we try and write songs and then our singer forgets them and plays them wrong and mashes them together and the rest of us have to try and keep up.

We've been doing it for 3 years or so, and I still don't believe anyone when they tell me that they think we are good and they like our music. I'm all "were you actually listening at all?"

It is amazing
how different it sounds being in a band/DJing/whatever from being in the audience. Even mixtapes I've done which I think are appalling are actually well-liked by the people who got copies. This reminds me I did a pretty good film soundtracks mix a few years ago...wonder where that is.

The other point is that 90% of people
don't listen to music from a musician's point of view - and with a live band there a several musicans playing so you can confuse people into not noticing your errors - this is harder with DJing.

+ especially when you've only got two records, both of which are the same song.

(, Mon 28 Mar 2011, 16:02, Reply)
Fucking right.
If you fuck up a beat juggle there's nowhere to hide. I am
a) choosing not to pour scorn on you for your pitiful ignorance of the sphere of technical DJing and
b) also pretending not to notice your dismal attempt at some form of mockery

the good thing with playing the guitar is that if you cock up
you can repeat the same mistake three times and then claim it is jazz

Hahahah so true

Actually I saw a good band last night and they were playing "Rebel Rebel"
and obviously forgot to go into the chorus at one point, but within a bar everyone had realised and switched and none of the none musicians I was with noticed.
(, Mon 28 Mar 2011, 16:03, Reply)
you both raise some good points..
I think part of the problem is that I listen to quite different stuff to that which we play, so often think that our stuff is too simple.

Those 'none musicians' can be so stupid.

That's what's so shit
she called it off on account of the beard.
(, Mon 28 Mar 2011, 15:38, Reply)
She told me it was his hair,
but that opinions were divided about this.
(, Mon 28 Mar 2011, 15:40, Reply)
Most people would have thought it was the hair
but she's not shallow. The issue is a practical one. The problem with the beard is that when he was going down on her, it was tickling her arsehole.
(, Mon 28 Mar 2011, 15:42, Reply)
He then ended up with a musky beard, which was most offputting at the dinner table.
That might not be true, but that's what she told me.
(, Mon 28 Mar 2011, 15:44, Reply)
It would be like an anal pan scourer

(, Mon 28 Mar 2011, 15:46, Reply)
I just heard that his thighs were too short

(, Mon 28 Mar 2011, 15:58, Reply)
that is not a problem with which I suffer
