It'll all be melted by tomorrow though.


Wait does that mean it stayed around for all of today? Cool.

Oh god, and you could totally hear the bass player! You're not supposed to hear them unless they are the only one playing, or unless you're Primus.

Um, it's called a bass heavy sound. If you're not familiar with it, listen to every song on every album by Green Day, The Matches, Sublime, Queens of the Stone Age, Queen, etc.

The more bass you hear, the better,

No, we don't.

And Green Day's old stuff is good! What have you against them besides the fact that American Idiot sucks?

I'm going to disagree with you here. Most sane people seem to hate this album. It's just overplayed. The album ispretty decent. Not their best, but definitely not their worst.

I think it's their worst. I really hate it because it made Green Day mainstream beyond reason.

They were already mainstream and had been for ten years since Dookie, which sold (I think) over 15 million copies.

Nobody I knew had heard of them until American Idiot. Maybe I just know ignorant people.

Only if your bass player is actually good, like Les Claypool.

Your "band", on the other hand...

I freaking told you people 4 times, that's the video from the era when we sucked.

Trust me, dude, when we can find a new drummer and vocalist, we'll make another video that displays our current talent. That video is old with all the crappy members in it.

Your bassist's name will be Smokey Joe. He will have a red beard and the raddest sunglasses on the block.

The guitarist will be Kevin the King. He will wear an elegant purple cap and a thorny crown.

Keyboardist will be named Jiggy Bear Thomas and he'll be a cheap imitation of Liberache and Elton John.

Driver will be named Sid Jendrick. He will be morbidly obese with three chidren.

Manager's name will be Barold Bajamma. He will gel his hair and have fake teeth.

Let me explain something, Homerun.

Yes, I am the one on bass. I wasn't kicked out because I worked on my bass playing, and am good at bass now.

The guitarist wasn't kicked out because he worked at it, and is good now.

The drummer's gone because he thought we said negative things about him. (What a freakin' baby)

The vocalist was released because he sucked, always sang too quietly, and never tried to get any better.

There.

Proof plz. And I don't want "oh we don't have a singer" or whatever. I want a recording with either just you or whatever remaining members you have.

No. Just horrible at humor. And I agree with Noid, post some of your instrumental songs on myspace or youtube or something.

We didn't make any instrumental videos. Just CD's.

And I'm not lying. I'm telling the truth.

Ok, you know what I'll do? I'll post a video of me playing all the basslines and grooves (which are the same thing) for all our new songs. They're really basic, but they sound alright.

Just wait.

Oh god, I feel so sick right now.

I havent eaten since last night, I'm light headed, I'm starting to get a fever, and I'm starting to question weather or not I have people that care about me[size=0](inb4 HUGBOX)[/size].

Oh god I feel so horrible right now.

Here's the video.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nPW9DLS4Wak

When I play the slap bassline, you can hear thumping that's almost as loud as what's coming from the amp. It's because of the low quality camera.
And it cuts at a weird time because I ran out of tape after I finished the second bassline.

You're alright. Your playing pretty simple stuff, but it sounds good, which is the important part.

In other words; you don't deserve the crap you're getting.
