I was the drummer for a jazz/rock/bluegrass band called Blueheart. Before that I was in the Afronauts and Mojo Filter... ahhh the glory of high school rock bands.

does it count if the whole band is in my head? if not... then no.

I am too slow to be in a band. I tend to spent weeks writing songs. and forget every other song that I know... except one. there's always one song.. it's usually 'Wish you were here'. yeah. So while I'm on this tangent ... anybody want icecream?

I had a punk band! in high school, that was fun! Now I just play with myself, in the mornings, and at night.

there... since i wear my pants low, they are always below the piss hole on my boxers... and since my boxers are really cheap and from costco the button always opens. all that reedy saw was my limp dick, and he just wanted to see a raging hard boner so bad that that's what he saw in his mind. word.

We never technically 'wrote' any songs, but we were a jam band and compiled a lot of original tunes... I'd say as Blueheart progressed at our gigs we were playing half original, half cover. We covered stuff like Van Morrison, bluegrass/folksy songs from Oh Brother, Where Art Thou and from Chocolat... let's see, we did a lot of jazz classics, stuff like Autumn Leaves, Black Orpheus, Blue Monk, Satin Doll, All Blues... Herbie Hancock, Miles Davis, Dave Brubeck. A lot of stuff. And then we'd turn right around and play Godsmack.

I play drums in a band called mudslide and have an electronic group called E150.

Bands are the best. Music is just good for you, super fun to play.

Does anybody here play a lot of gigs?

I used to have about two gigs a week with Blueheart, I was rolling in the dough. Then I moved and I haven't played with anyone since.

I'm a part of the Marble Engine. We have 2 different demo CDs and we play about 70% original music, and some covers, everything from Filter, to the Beatles, to Pink Floyd, to the Smashing Pumkins.
