It's for music addicts, I'll be the first to do

My name is Kyle and I have a music problem. I purchase on average anywhere form 2-10 cds a week, I have purchased over 300 cds in the last two years, I play the bass two hours a day, I always think about song ideas in my head, my main source of news and wit is a music related forum (RTTP) and I've lost girlfriends because of this music habit.

me too....wait.....

my name is mark, and my problem is that i don't have enough money to purchase anywhere from 2 to 10 cd's per week. i need help. badly.

alright, mark, you've done it. my name is jen, music is one of a very few things to keep me happy and sane, i love going to live shows where i always get my ass kicked at least once per show, it's great. and i play my guitar as much as humanly possable, i have a nice guitar but i sold my amp so i could move to fuckin massachusetts to go to school..man i need an amp.

Yeah my only bills are my car and insurance, so I've got the extra cash to burn, plus I seek out cheap cds and I only buy ten cds when I am in the rare mood, ussually it is just about one or two a week unless they have something really good, but for now I am going to save up for college, because I don't want to take another year off.

Hi, my name is Mike. I've purchased 2 CDs in the last 3 years. I play drums for an average of 1 hour a week. I only go to local shows if Rich Horror is going to be there waving his penis at traffic or loudly insulting minorities in front of elderly women.

my name is ken. i am a faggot, i have aids, and i drink too much.

Hi, my name's Rich. I'm fond of sprinkling a special concoction into young ladies' drinks when they're busy tying their shoes.

so i have noticed rich.....thanks

No, it is me and my penis that thank you.

mike, you need a hug. and some more music.

ma dukes, i feel ya. i've sacrificed my knees to playing heavy metal (dislocated my right knee at a band practice like 4 years ago, dislocated left knee at the last sexcrement show), yet i keep doing it. when my last vehicle died, i got rid of my amp so i could pay for a new one. i wasn't complete for at least a year after that.

i used to buy like 5 or 6 cd's a week, go to 1 or 2 shows every week, sometimes 3, buy merchandise at all shows. now i have to make car payments, pay for car repairs, pay car insurance, health insurance, student loans starting in a few months, as well as gas (a lot of it), rent for my band's space, and credit card payments. this summer is going to be painful!

rich, are you responsible for the girl that got roofied at a umass dartmouth party a few weekends ago? you sly dog.

I am responsible for every rape in the greater New Bedford area since the late seventies.

hahahahaha
now THAT'S an accomplishment

this is why even when dating another musician, you never get rid of any gear you have, cause then they leave and tak the gear with them..goddamnit

I've always felt pride in your own work is of the utmost importance.

my name's mike, and i practice all our songs on an acoustic cuz i never have my electric around or a practice amp to play with...i get ridiculously stoned on a regular basis as well, and have a fondness for wine

rich, that is very true. if i hated my illustration, i could never reach such a high plateau as you have in your pseudo-sexual exploits.

luckily i've never really dated a musician before, ma dukes. and i'm also luckily working a shitload of overtime to update my entire rig this summer. not buying cd's, going to every show i want to go to, and buying band shirts will be the true test.

nice to meet you sac.....i like to practice on acoustic anyways, cause then when you play on electric right after acoustic, you fuckin fly

you make a good point...maybe that's why our songs keep getting faster

i play heavy gage on acoustic, then like 11's on my electric, and it is amazing

i've only changed one string on my acoustic in the last 3 years, so i know the low e is a .56 or something but as for the rest i have no idea(i'm more of a rhythm guitarist anyhow, so the heavier the better)

i also need to revamp my rig...well...buy new cables and a new distortion pedal cuz the jacks on it are all fucked and it's not as clear as it used to be

the pedal thing is easy to fix, ge a soldering iron, wrench, case of beer, and a first aid kit, ohh and some of that air in a can shit works too. cables need to be replaced quite frequently in my experiance

as much fun as i'd have with that project(i.e. doing nothing but drinking beer) it's actually something where the jack doesnt hold the cords in place anymore, like the bendable metal piece that clicks said cord into place lost its response or something(a new one just means it's in perfect condition anyhow and couldn't hurt)

i need new tubes...i'm getting winged-c, which are the same thing as the original svetlana tubes from russia. then i'm hoping to get a mesa cab, but i'll settle for a good marshall. and even though i hated them for the longest time, i'm thinking of getting an 7 string, hopefully an ibanez universe. if you know how to work 7 strings, they can be excellent guitars. plus the ibanez universe has the sickest sound in the world.

you can buy replacment jacks though dude, wicked cheap

you could just get new jacks for around $20

you beat me to it ma

i like the schecter A7 elite, i like schecters, REALLY want a C1 classic

that's good to know....thanks guys

yeah, i used to haaate schecters. they've improved a lot. i played russ from mutilated's 7 string schecter. fucking bad ass. there's something about the neck that makes me more comfortable than a 6 string

my baby:

ESP LTD DV-200(Low-end Dave Mustaine signature series)

MarkFuckingRichards said:

i know what you mean...i have a schecter 7 string(that i never use for anything) but the neck on it is phenomenal...so much easier to play on it

that's pretty nice. my friend niccolai, who posts here, is like the poster boy for LTDs. he keeps telling me that if i don't buy an LTD over a 7 string, he'll disown me, hahaha

you should definitely just give me the schecter, i mean come on....cah'maaaahn...eh? eh?

haha i know what he means...the last guitar i had was an LTD too. it was a lot harder to play but it sounded awesome

will not happen!

yeah. i think it would take me a while to get used to playing any ltd or esp. i'm used to the jackson/ibanez style guitars, but i did play one ltd that was the most badass guitar in the world. too bad it cost more than my life is worth

Sacreligion said:

haha, it was worth a shot.

i need to stop posting here...i'm supposed to be studying for a final. you guys are jerks for taking me away from my oh so important education! i say good day.

My name is Tony and i also have a problem. i cant go into Newbury Comics with money or i am GOING to buy a cd. its an addiction. if i have 10 bucks and my choice is either food or a cd, i will go with the cd. i get stoned on a nightly basis and crave black metal as a smoker craves a cigarette. i survive off of Velveeta and grilled cheese.

as good as cheese is...i don't understand how you can't have any variety in your diet

mmm...grilled cheese, DINNER!!!

yours consists of chicken and fries

grilled cheese + ketchup=dinner

hey man i had baby back ribs and mashed potatoes last night so stuff that in your pipe and smoke it...speaking of which is that roach still intact?
