There was a horrible accident where the bus a band was in went over the side of a cliff. 4 musicians and 1 drummer died.

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 2 points 4 hours ago

Hey. You be nice to drummers. And remember that if you air drum to Def Leppard and you use both arms, you're an asshole.

[–] Guilherme@lemm.ee 2 points 4 hours ago

What the fuck did I read??

[–] MadBob@feddit.nl 4 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

Suspicious contempt for the rhythm section here.

[–] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 2 points 5 hours ago* (last edited 5 hours ago) (1 children)

Are you saying the drummer is a little wuss that can't fight? Because get that fucker out here in the parking lot.

[–] ikidd@lemmy.world 3 points 5 hours ago

We'll beat him like a kettle drum.

[–] don@lemm.ee 4 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

You have just said “I like GG Alin.” and called it a day.

[–] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 1 points 5 hours ago

Whoa. He didn't say anything about getting pissed or shit on.

[–] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 2 points 5 hours ago

Me, at the opener for Bright Eyes

[–] beefbot@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 7 hours ago (4 children)

fight the drummer?!

Dude. Everyone knows it’s FUCK the drummer! (They’re always the crazy one)

[–] nyctre@lemmy.world 6 points 6 hours ago

Plus, drummer is always more fit than the rest cause of the effort required to play. Seems like a bad idea all around.

[–] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 2 points 5 hours ago

Really knows how to give a pounding

[–] Fiat126@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 7 hours ago

I've always thought that the bassist was the hottest member of the band i feel like a drummer is kind of unpredictable

[–] CrowAirbrush@lemmy.world 1 points 6 hours ago

What, i was always told the bassist is the crazy one and i can confirm as i used to be the bassist.

[–] HelluvaKick@lemmy.world 17 points 10 hours ago

Used to play in bands. Still do but I used to too.

In the one I was in in high school, some drunk ass old man ran on stage, unplugged our guitarists guitar, got behind him and started pretending he was playing it and humping him. Supported us real good

I played trumpet in a ska band in the 00s. This one time, in a small bar, things got a little rowdy and a guy ran into my trumpet while I was playing it. Hurt like a motherfucker. I spit out blood and it loosened a tooth. The other fans saw me spit out blood and started kicking the shit out of the guy on the ground. Then one dude bought me a beer to wash the blood down

Good times.

Support local bands.

[–] afox@lemmy.world 39 points 1 day ago

I was in a punk band when I was younger. We were mid set in a shitty bar. My amp started to spaz out. Like cutting in and out every few min. This old dude jumped on stage and kicked it really hard. Patted me on the back, handed me a shot, and jumped down (all mid song). Never had a problem with that amp again. Used it for years after. Old punk rocker magic. Nothing to laugh at.r

[–] ViperActual@sh.itjust.works 10 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Got any videos from these days? Always down for ska

[–] tabularasa@lemmy.ca 5 points 7 hours ago

Sorry for the shitty link, but wasn't sure how else to share it online for free, anonymously.

Sadly, no, they were up on our MySpace page. I can upload some music though. Give me some time

I used to sing in a post punk band. We had a drum machine. In the middle of one gig, the drum machine spazzed out and deleted all the internal memory, and started a 600bpm bossa nova loop. We played right through to the end.

[–] glitchdx@lemmy.world 13 points 23 hours ago (1 children)

i don't understand what that means but it sounds hype as fuck.

[–] redwattlebird@lemmings.world 12 points 22 hours ago

For the drum machine, definitely! But we largely kept to our tempo or maybe double. It was a free gig and we were getting paid in beers. I think it was pretty funny for the audience too. Great night.

[–] Emerald@lemmy.world 13 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

Support more obscure artists in general, doesn't have to be local. Bandcamp is great.

[–] cows_are_underrated@feddit.org 1 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

This. Normally I pirate all of my music because I actually don't want to be forced to have an Internet connection to listen to stuff but I'm actually considering buying some of the stuff I pirated because the artists deserve the money.

[–] Emerald@lemmy.world 1 points 5 hours ago

I just buy the things that I can't pirate. I save money and end up supporting small artists.

[–] Sanctus@lemmy.world 75 points 1 day ago (6 children)

I was a local bassist and I support this message.

[–] sneezycat@sopuli.xyz 32 points 1 day ago (8 children)

I unplugged the bassist but noone noticed

They forgot to say spill beer on their amps

[–] darkpanda@lemmy.ca 9 points 1 day ago (3 children)

Don’t forget to yell out “Free Bird” you clever bastards.

[–] BobbyNevada@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

That or "Simple Man!". My bassist friend hates when I yell it out.

[–] darkpanda@lemmy.ca 1 points 4 hours ago

Or “Wagpn Wheel”.

I used to love big arena shows until I saw a famous band do a three night stand at a small bar/club style venue. After that, I started going to shows of bands/performers I hadn't heard of. Changing how I thought of shows, where before I thought of it as an event like going to see a theatre play, to thinking about them similarly to how I'd think of going to the movie theater made the whole live scene seem more accessible and more fun. I hope when my kids are older we can start going to more shows again.

I read an article that said being in a band is less appealing to kids these days and that being an influencer is more popular than wanting to be a Rockstar. I hope it's just "old man yells at clouds" because I feel like there is always room for more local acts. Support your neighbors, go dance!

I always buy merch as it's worth more than any amount a band earns from streaming. I wish more bands have shirts that aren't just black though. I'd estimate only a quarter of the artists I've seen have shirts of a different color.
