At least I can say that my band WRITES AND PLAYS OUR OWN SONGS(We have a rule...no more than 2 cover songs per night). The songs that your band plays Bucky....how many of those did you guys write?


FYI...i am in a band that does write it's own tunes, and i have written several myself....how many beer belly tunes have you composed?

you just wait till you hear our first single, "green irish hills"....it's so damn good it will make you want to spit.

My band was invited to play at a 3 day festival over Labor Day. It's called the "Rroll Over Dover Music & Arts Festival". Some place called Dover TN. It's a rather large affair, with over 15,000 tickets sold last year.

From what we've been told so far, we can expect to play all 3 days. Friday and Saturday on the small side stages, and Sunday we play the big stage as one of the openers for The Black Keys. The main stage will have a live streaming simulcast all 3 days.

It ain't Bonnaroo, but it doesn't suck either!

Where have I seen this before?

hardly. i don't see any major flame wars developing here. SS and i are far too professional for that to happen.

besides...he's left the board!

meanwhile, i continue rockin' to the music of the man whose playing i model myself after...


and SS will do the same!

>dude...you shake a tambourine!<

Not for that gig I won't. I'll be playing the full kit. We'll also have a lead guitar player and a piano player. Everyone will be plugged in for this gig, so I can play actual drums.

Funny that you don't understand dynamics. We play acoustic country blues. If I played my drums when we play acoustic, that is all you'd hear....my drums. And that would suck. So I bang on a tambourine and shake shakers. I do that because that is what the songs need to be heard, and musically speaking, it fits in better with the musical style we play.

If you want to be a dick just to be a dick...that's fine with me. At least I can say that my band WRITES AND PLAYS OUR OWN SONGS(We have a rule...no more than 2 cover songs per night). The songs that your band plays Bucky....how many of those did you guys write? Oh yeah, none. I suppose if you can't write good songs, pretending to be The Beatles, who did write good songs, is a good way to go.

I'd rather do what I do, than be in a dime a dozen "tribute" cover band.

You wanna keep being a dickhead, or do you want stop it now?





I think the Stones should cover "The Night They Drove ole' Dixie down....

hmmmm....i'll have to think on that one.

you seem to be missing the point of my "being a dickhead", so i'll elaborate. first of all, the fact that i am in a tribute band, and a beatles one at that, is something that i put forth not to toot my own horn, but as a way of self deprication. there are some talented and creative people on these boards, and sometimes the best form of fun is to make fun of each other...some of the other regulars have made me wet my pants at the anti beatle stuff they come up with. it's hilarious, and its at my expense, which makes it even funnier. at the end of the day, however, i'm still in a tribute band...i'm not out to change the world. you guys, on the other hand, are an original band, and a good one at that. so me making fun of you is a bit of an oxymoron, isn't it? similar to, say winslow ripping on the steelers, or joey praising his own posting abilities, perhaps?

the thing i take issue with is your departure and the way it was handled. i have always thought that those who have made the "i'm leaving and never coming back" post and then do come back are lame...you have done it, but yet you still come back and post from time to time, which is lame in and of itself. however, whenever you do come back, the only reason you come is either to let us know how well your band is doing or to let us know how much poo tang you're getting, which is even lamer. are you back, or are you not? are the stones your boys, or have they betrayed you? most importantly, do you love us enough to reclaim your spot on the throne of C10, or do you only want us around to fluff your ego when you need a boost?

make up your mind, man! and stop being lame. if you're home to stay, pull up a chair and post. if not, take a lesson from fleabit, who i still miss but respect greatly for having a classic meltdown but yet sticking to his guns and staying away....
