Hi kids. Noob here. Have been playing in bands for almost 25 years. Currently in 2 bands, one plays original punk rock and roll (think Ramones/Pistols/Buzzcocks/Dolls, etc.). I'm the "singer" and lead guitarist in that'un. The side band plays roots rock (think Tom Petty/Neil Young/'lectric Dylan) written/sung by the lead singer, who's a buddy of mine from work. I'm the lead player and do the occasional backing vocal in that one. I also played guitar and bass in church for about a decade but recently switched churches and am not doing that at the new place, which is not nearly so hard-up for guitarists.
I post on a bunch of other guitar/bass boards, so some of y'all may have the misfortune of already knowing me.
I have an exceedingly motley batch of guitars and a couple basses, the only thing in common they have is that I got some good deals (sometimes outrageously so) on them. Here's a pic:
I have a batch of amps too, again nothing expensive, but most of it works anyhow.
I'll try and play nice.

Oh yeah, I know High Springs, one of my college buddies lives up there. I went to UF too (Go Gators!). Twice in fact, undergrad and grad. Never left. Some people never grow up.
Btw, I am one of the distinct minority of people who already know that that green LP Special is spearmint.

Oh yeah, Terraplane have been around forever. The side band (that plays roots rock, Hoyt and the HotHeads) is playing Saturday June 9 at a great little Irish bar called the Shamrock. I may be playing bass at that one rather than my usual lead since iirc our basist will be on tour with his other band that night.Originally Posted by warren0728
My punk rocknroll band is in the midst of (yet another!) drummer search so we don't have anything going on.
Cheers,
BK

Welcome Krashpad, it'll be fun having you here. Interesting collection of axes there. What's that odd looking blue one?
I pick a moon dog.

No worries, we have a new guy jamming with us at practice Sunday night, and another in the wings. But I'm one of those guys if he doesn't gig in a couple months starts to get antsy. I used to have a weekly church gig that was great, but unfortunately the pastor decided to move on and the people that assumed control went in a direction we didn't like so I'm at a new church and not playing weekly in church any more. Which is too bad, because I'd gotten to the point where I could just come in, run though the one song I'd never played before right before the service, and go. That was fun and fulfilling in a way that playing in bars (as much as I love playing in bars!) could never be.Originally Posted by warren0728
Fortunately last week an old buddy of mine came into town to play a benefit for a mutual acquaintance of ours, and I got to sit in with his band on bass (on one day-of-show practice!):
That should hold me until my side band plays in June, but just barely.

Hahahahahaah! No hate here. It's a very relaxed and mature place. We could learn to like lawyers.
Play your guitar daily!
Well let's start out with punk rockers and have 'em work up to lawyers.
One day at a time, sweet Jesus!

Oh no! Two lawyers on the Fret?
Does this mean we can slander Madonna and get away with it?
