Musicians

[marcofthebeast]

I am in a Rock/Punk/Metal band called Pair Of Sevens, I play guitar and back up vocals. We are recording and coming out with a demo hopefully by the end of this month.

I'm fairly certain that my very BEING was being modified by Led Zeppelin, since my Mum used to play Led Zeppelin on headphones and hold them to her womb while I was in my SUPER-MEGA-UBER-Formative stages.

Oh... I forgot my band has a myspace page... No music yet we have pics of us lookin' like jackasses

 

[Mr. Thing]

I play Guitar, keyboard, drums, bass...eh, I can pretty much play anything I pick up except stuff like brass.

I had a band, but we split, each of us wanted different things.

I'm like Wilhelm, I live and breathe music. But I don't limit myself to one type of music. I mean, one day I could listen to Metallica and then the next day I could listen to Kraftwerk. Whatever has a good tune, I'm there.

 

[marcofthebeast]

I am the same way with music, however I'm not much into electronica/ techno.

I know there are a lot of equipment ****es out there (me included)
So I'll show you what I play.

Guitars:
Epiphone Les Paul Special II, all stock
Jackson Dinky w/ EMG-81 in the bridge.
BC Rich Platinum Warlock (83') /w Duncan Devastator in bridge
Jackson RR3 Crimson Swirl w/ EMG-81/85 (Zakk Wylde set)

Amplifiers:
Marshall MG10cd, 10 watt practice amp.
Marshall AVT150H, 150 watt amp

The only effects I use is a built in acoustic simulator and I use D'addario 11' strings religiously.

I'm intrested in seeing what everyone else plays.

[The Shape]

I'm a drummer. I love my drum set. DW's own. I have a band called The Armory. We played some big shows, but we're really falling apart right now due to time constraints.

I also play piano.

 

[Bat Attack]

I played the guitar. Quit. I moved on to the Trombone. Quit. Than I tried playing piano. Quit. I have no musical talent whatsoever. I want to try and play the electric guitar again though.

Okay, good.

 

[Iglius]

I play guitar, and I have a friend who plays bass, and we used to have a sick drummer, but he moved away. We're not a very serious band, we just jam. Then I have these other two guys who I'm going to play bass for. I always thought the name The Face Eaters was a cool name, but no one is with me on that. My friend thinks its too Def Metal, or Death Metal, whataver. Well, thats not what we're going for, but I don't think of the name that way. Thoughts?

It was more of a one-off thing, but we managed to get our director let a 4-man (3 guys and a girl, but oh well) all-brass group play excerpts from various ska songs (mostly Reel Big Fish) during football games in the stands (our football team sucked, so the band was most of the entertainmentat times). We could only play certain sections without guitar (we could cover the bass parts well enough), but it was still pretty sick for something we set up on a whim, and we were getting to play for the 150+ people at a time.
