QUOTE(led_zep_freak @ Jun 29 2006, 01:34 AM) Me too. ah foot tapping! i almost always do that when playing powerchords in a band to keep a certain tempo to myself. but it's not forced, it comes naturally lol without me realising it.  Usually in a band situation I would follow very closely to the drummer, if he screws up the timing, I have to follow too LOL! Anyway in my band my bassist is pretty much locked to the drummer and I usually give certain signals/eye contact when to end/quiet down etc... sometimes the vocalist would do the signal job, depending on which song we play.But yeah, if the drummer isn't playing on a certain part, I would usually tap my foot and headbang a little to keep the timing. I realize that at times your foottapping would be synced to the movement of your picking hand. So the tapping is gonna be confusing if you play some complex rhythm, hence the headbanging.  yeah, we follow very closely to the drummer, if he screws up, we too will screw up because there is not fricking way we can go against the drummer (at least for me, if the drummer slows down, my playing immediately becomes lethargic and slow, that's why i always get mad with my drummer lol!) complex rhythm, i headabang abit only. QUOTE(Bassix @ Jun 29 2006, 04:36 AM) headbanging and foot tapping would work as well. But I've seen some sesat people who headbang to a totally different tempo than what the drummer is playing  ....not easy to headbang out of timing...but they can do it...hahaha. And play all wrong of course. So remember; love your bassist and drummer and they will love you back.....Wait, that sounds sooo wrong...  but they were playing all fine. |

QUOTE(Bassix @ Jun 29 2006, 04:36 AM) in my opinion, playing to tracks can be easier than playing with a live band. Yup, totally agreed. Playing with a band and playing it live is very, very different from playing to backing tracks. Don't say wrong tempo, I've even played with ppl who plays in the wrong key! But all these adds to the fun of playing with a band... if you could get a few band members whom you could work well with (like nerd's family band), I suggest you stick with them no matter how bad they play lol, because they're very hard to come by. » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «  QUOTE(echobrainproject @ Jun 29 2006, 07:19 AM) well bassist and drummers go together(ok, it sounds wrong). in my former band, if the band practices 3 times a week, the bassist and drummer will spend another extra 2 days just the both of them to practice and nail things down tight. Wow, really??? What my band do is we would practise once every week before performance and the band would spend extra time talking crap. QUOTE(blacktrix @ Jun 29 2006, 09:07 AM) just checking in. I bought a Gibson SG guitar for only 69.99$! Only works with my ps2 though! ha ha ha! Guitar Hero Baby!  |

finding a drummer is easy.
whether hes free or not is the question. cos usually he'll be tied to quite a few other bands. finding a vocalist WITH image, now thats hard. oh... SLAYER and uhh iron maiden might be coming to singapore end of this yr. This post has been edited by Everdying: Jun 29 2006, 02:17 PM |

its hard for me to find a vocalist! keyboardist are rare too... especially those like me who wants keyboardist who can play children of bodom, nightwish and even dream theater stuff. lol. ok, maybe i am asking too much.
as for drummers, i have at least 3 drummers whom i know i can rely on to gig for me anytime. these 3 not only play well, but have decent kits too which is a great bonus. (theyre in kuching, not kl) |

Yea, vocalist (who can sing) is very hard to come by. These days, people are aimming for those Malaysian Idol stuff and these kind of singers can't sing rock songs ..... hard to find those who have something like Steven Tyler;s voice. as for drummers, i have at least 3 drummers whom i know i can rely on to gig for me anytime. these 3 not only play well, but have decent kits too which is a great bonus.

My friend, Sanpagan San is organising a gig in his college which is KBU international college. its located in bandar utama damasara near sri pentas TV3. he is looking for bands who are willing to perform on the 21st of July 06 in kbu for the gig.

Dude, iPod you can get it here, anywhere, any time, but once you miss the Les Paul offer, it's either Singapore and never at all. Don't let Steve Jobs brainwash you!!!
