Musicians Thread

I like the picture its really funny especially the trolls with beer its like a troll moshpit thats cool maybe they could come to the gig when Folktroll play their debut show

Oh yes and I could do that dancing stuff on the stage then? And then stagedive into the troll horde this Folktroll thingie is gonna be a huge success

^Of course you can that sounds great its going to be totally wild have you thought about what songs your going to record for your cd? as well as dead by xmas you could do a metal version A Fairytale of New York by the pogues have you got a band or are you doing it by yourself?

No its only going to be two or three songs. No band atm, I used to do some stuff with my ex boyfriend who is a really good musician.
But I think practicing in that heavy santa costume will cost me too much energy and time to ever record that X-mas song. - pooooh that fluffy red dress is really warm and it smells sort of chemical...........

I've been playing guitar on and off since I turned 15. Some things here and there, maybe I am at hiatus because of Depression.

@ Amalaith what sort of music did your old band play? did you play live and record? and your right santa outfits are strange ive heard a number of stories about them smelling odd it must be something in the material its going to be a lively show by the sounds of it

@WickedRock when you play what sort stuff do play and have you been in any bands?

He had a prog metal band and we did a little side project. Im not very much into prog any more though..... I have no recordings at home, gotta ask him next time I speak to him. And I do a lot of singing (or trying to ) at home just for me. But I have never had a live performance though, I am just no stage-person. But as long as singing is fun, its fun....

That sounds pretty good Ive never played live either im more into writing stuff practicing it and then recording it and sending it out to people I know and occasionally sending it to metal mags who review demos got reviewed in Terrorizer once about fours years ago which was good I mainly play as a hobby and im really into metal so playing is fun

My vocals I wouldnt call singing gruff growly stuff as its black metal what I play dont think id like playing live im to much of a coward

Same with me, I'd probably be so nervous that I'd fall off from stage or so (if I would ever enter the stage at all, probably rather hide in some closet before a gig)

Id probably be sick and freeze my throat would dry up and and couldnt speak and play a whole load of bum notes or feign some illness before a gig, I think the best way I could do a sort of gig would be too film me playing against a blue screen then add the audience

for the virtual band what about a violin player? we could all film ourselves playing on blue screen edit cut and paste instant gig
