Are there any b3ta musicians out there?
Just curious is all.

Cheers.

Yup. I can sing actually. I'm going for my grade five music exam in August. Like I need another exam.

But yes its fun. I haven't recorded though. :( I would like to but I can't play guitar to save my life and I don't know anyone who would back me. :(

Well I'm actually looking for a vocalist,
but it seems you live quite a distance away.
I'm a "musician", but not a very good singer.
Although The Postal Service never seemed to have a problem.

Define musician?
I may throw my hand in to some such ring though, as I feel I probably can class myself as such. VC can tell you so.

Musician as in
someone who plays music.
Could you stretch to that?
(TheColonel, Tue 7 Apr 2009, 0:28, Reply)

Well in that case
I will definitely go for a yes then.

And yes, I could stretch to that. Am in a ceilidh band, and record stuff on my own, and attempt to write stuff too.

He's very good!
I have one of his songs on my iPod. Probably better then the original version IMHO.

And yeah I am a tad far away but keep a space for me - I'll come have a jam with you when I get there. I'm already going to go have a jam with Podders. Maybe we'll all jam together?

@Penguin
Link?
(TheColonel, Tue 7 Apr 2009, 0:36, Reply)

No online stuff I'm afraid Mr Colonel
We are having a ceilidh band group recording sessions soon, and most of my own recording still needs finished. I e-mailed the song to VC as she asked nicely for it, and said nice things.
(PenguinOfDeath is Scottish, and most likely angry, Tue 7 Apr 2009, 0:42, Reply)

@VC
Yeah cool, would be fun.
When you over?
Although I don't know where Podders lives :S.

ahaha I'll be in Cambridge
Mid to late november next year. I need to find out when end of year exams are - then I'm booking my tickets for a couple of days after. Pretty much going to finish school and jump on a plane out of here. :D

EDIT: When I say I'll be in cambridge - it means I'll very likely be unavailable for at least a few weeks.
(Poppet some assembly required., Tue 7 Apr 2009, 0:44, Reply)

Aha!
My location is unknown. Mwahahaha.

Also, I'm in Scotland.
(PenguinOfDeath is Scottish, and most likely angry, Tue 7 Apr 2009, 0:50, Reply)

Ahhh,
One of my good friends lives in Cambridge, I shall have to conveniently schedule a trip down and we shall take Cambs by storm.
Or summat.
(TheColonel, Tue 7 Apr 2009, 0:51, Reply)

ahaha
If I come up for air while you're down in Cambridge (god had to word that carefully!) then by all means. I'm staying with a fellow b3tan though - so may just ignore your first call if I'm otherwise "occupied".
(Poppet some assembly required., Tue 7 Apr 2009, 0:53, Reply)

I play guitar...
sing, play a bit of percussion, and I can write pretty much anything on my 'puter.

If you're looking for a vocalist, put notices up in local music shops, newsagents, studios, clubs etc.

Good luck!

I play guitar in a band
and am working on a new project with my drummer too

my band is here www.myspace.com/dumberthantheaveragebear

not got anything up from the new project yet though.

I've been thinking that a touring b3ta jam would be good. go round visiting all the musicians and see what they add to the mix. Discovered there's at least one drummer on here yesterday which might help.

Was that me, V?
If not, then there are 2.
(PenguinOfDeath is Scottish, and most likely angry, Tue 7 Apr 2009, 8:27, Reply)

didn't realise you were a drummer PoD
it was someone else whose user name now escapes me

no it doesn't, Davydd Grimm. freelance black metal drummer :-)

Tour sounds like it could be interesting.
The B3ta Band.



Too obvious?
(TheColonel, Tue 7 Apr 2009, 9:23, Reply)

Er...
I'm a singer/bass player.

Few b3tans have heard me play.

Pooflake and Captain Placid are in a fantastic covers band.

that was my idea for the name too :-)

I really like Kaol's voice. it reminds me of the Cramps or someone (not the kids tv show)

Hey, don't forget.........................
The Belmers!*

Our reviews contain such gems as:-

"Get out of my pub you talentless bastards"
"Fuck me, YOU again! I thought we threw you out last time"
"Great gig but cut the swearing"
"Belmers? Never heard of them!"



*Laziest, least talented band** in Christendom.


**I say band, but it's just Pooflake and me.
(Captain Placid 24/7 ball gags, brownie mix and clown porn, Tue 7 Apr 2009, 9:30, Reply)

Pffft,
I didn't forget, see my above post!

The Belmers manage to be a great sing-along-covers band and shit-yourself hilarious at the same time.

They're not half bad for old people.

EDIT: Thanks Vipros!

I'm a musician!
Singer. Classical, and therefore possibly not what you're looking for.

Empress
I'd still like to work with you.

my drummer and I are putting together some stuff that at the moment sounds like a cross between massive attack and pink floyd. might you be interested at some point down the line?
