Yes, I know it’s censored. I didn’t censor it. I still think it’s fucking funny. See? I can write fuck.
I was a local bassist and I support this message.

The drummer def. noticed the lack of sb playing with ½bar delay

It wasn’t unplugged, but Sid Vicious used his bass as a bat against Brian Faltin in Texas.

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!

What’s a three night stand?? One night stand times three?
swab148@lemm.ee 3 days ago
Pretty much, they play at the same club for three nights
HelluvaKick@lemmy.world 2 days 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 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 2 days ago
i don’t understand what that means but it sounds hype as fuck.
redwattlebird@lemmings.world 2 days 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.

Don’t forget to yell out “Free Bird” you clever bastards.
BobbyNevada@discuss.tchncs.de 2 days ago
That or “Simple Man!”. My bassist friend hates when I yell it out.

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.
FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 3 days ago
Funny. Because I am a messy person, I tend to prefer black shirts and I hate it when a band only has white ones.
some_guy@lemmy.sdf.org 3 days ago
As a person with cats, I prefer anything but black because their hair is highly visible. But sometimes you gotta settle with what’s available.
flambonkscious@sh.itjust.works 3 days ago
Yeah, white would really be the wrong alternative.
Depending on the complexity of the details, gimmie reds, blues, orange or pink…
synae@lemmy.sdf.org 2 days ago
If you listen to the right bands they always have black shirts ;)

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 days 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.
Emerald@lemmy.world 2 days ago
Support small artists in general, doesn’t have to be local. Bandcamp is great.
cows_are_underrated@feddit.org 2 days ago
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 2 days ago
I just buy the things that I can’t pirate. I save money and end up supporting small artists.

Dude. Everyone knows it’s FUCK the drummer! (They’re always the crazy one)
nyctre@lemmy.world 2 days 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 days ago
Really knows how to give a pounding
CrowAirbrush@lemmy.world 2 days ago
What, i was always told the bassist is the crazy one and i can confirm as i used to be the bassist.
Fiat126@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 days ago
I’ve always thought that the bassist was the hottest member of the band i feel like a drummer is kind of unpredictable

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

Man I used to go to live, small wrestling shows at little clubs. We used to abuse those poor wrestlers, pick on anything about them and everyone in the crowd could hear each other so we were ruthless and making each other laugh. One guy got destroyed over his backne and another cause he had angel wing tattoos.

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 2 days 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

I’ve been seriously considering picking up a trumpet and starting a ska band with some of my other middle aged friends just for shits and giggles. Seems like a lot of fun.
