FINALLY! After a couple months with no permanent bass player (we got rid of ours a while back), we have finally found a great replacement! Not easy to find an ass kickin' hard rockin' down tuned dedicated bottom end around here, but we finally did!

does this mean I'm moving?!?
Hey, I already offered you the spot, but you were too lazy to travel to IL. at least twice a week!
BUT, if it does mean you are MOVING, then I guess the new guy will have to find another gig! [img]wink.gif[/img]

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">LOL, shit, tonight was the first time he jammed with us, so he still needs to learn the songs. Hopefully soon though!Quote:

We DID recently record a few tracks with our bud that was "filling in" for us for a bit, but who knows if we will even bother using them now. Gotta see how they turned out, because they are un-mixed and sitting in our buds computer right now.
well, get it together!
I'd like to check it out.
lol, easier said than done, when it comes to that guy! He is super slacker extremo!
I have some old ones we recorded, but they are with our old bass player, and they didn't turn out too well. Not sure I want to pass them on, because we have progressed a hell of a lot since then. [img]graemlins/thinking.gif[/img]
well, maybe I'll make a deal with ya...
details to come... [img]graemlins/devil.gif[/img] [img]wink.gif[/img]
I am uploading a track now. [img]smile.gif[/img]
Ok, here is an old crusty recording of a tune...

saved.
will check it later, as my PC doesn't like to do much all at once... [img]redface.gif[/img]
be on the lookout for a PM in the next few days, with some super-secret, ultra-rare info. [img]wink.gif[/img] [img]cool.gif[/img]
Groovy. If you like it at all, let me know, and I will send you the other 2 I have.
will do!
hey, you know how I can transfer stuff from a cassette to my PC?
I have a shitload of old demos and stuff that I'd like to burn to cd....
Hmmm, well, I haven't tried that, but you should be able to plug your tape deck into the computer and record it with any recording software. Not sure what plug you would use if you don't have a special board for it installed in your computer, but it might work through the mic input, with the right cord.
hmmm, I should look into that.
I know there are plaes I can take my tapes to have this done, but if I can do it cheap(read:free), all the better.
I have this old jam tape of a band I sang & played lead guitar in, back in the late 80's-early 90's.
kinda speedmetal-ish, I guess...
you could hear a tiny bit of Kreator influence, I think.
I really wanna get it onto a cd, as it's the LAST remaining copy of that tape.
if I can get it done, I'll hook you up.
we do a kickass cover of The Hammer, from Motorhead.

and some of the solo's I pull off just hurt to hear now, as I can't play like that anymore (read: don't practice).
we did stuff based on Stephen King, and Bugs Bunny's visit to Transylvania (abra-ca-pocus [img]wink.gif[/img] ).
Sounds like some killer stuff man! Hope you can get it transfered so I can run it through my ear drums!
I should clarify...
the King stuff was not the same tune as the Bugs Bunny one... [img]tongue.gif[/img]
the Bugs one was called "Now I Crush You".
great tune, except for the drum solo in the middle.
1 time our drummer used double bass...he got the kit that very day.
he didn't do too badly, considering, but he was no Lombardo... [img]wink.gif[/img]
LOL, I understand man. i have known many drummers that think they are double bass kings and suck ass. It is a tough thing to master if you are using it in a metal band. Just look at Lars. [img]tongue.gif[/img]
Of course, I shouldn't say much, considering i don't play double bass.
I can actually do it pretty well, if I don't have to change tempo, or add in any fills... [img]tongue.gif[/img]
just checked out that tune.
KICKASS!
me, I WANT MORE! [img]graemlins/thumbs_up.gif[/img]
Thanks man, I need to transfer the other two from wavs to MP3, I will do that tomorrow, but now I am off to crash right now.
And like I said, that recording is pretty old. Hopefully we will have some better stuff recorded soon. [img]smile.gif[/img]
sounds good, bro!
see ya tomorrow. [img]graemlins/beer.gif[/img]
Peeker, and anyone else who may be interested, I just uploaded another old track...
