Kenan, don't bait the dumb. It's cruel.

Love plus avoidance is a better way.

― Laurel, Thursday, 1 March 2007 16:59 (seventeen years ago) link

I think I'm the victim here.

― kenan, Thursday, 1 March 2007 17:00 (seventeen years ago) link

I am totally in. Nick, are you thinking of recording at your place or piecing together parts recorded elsewhere?

― Jordan, Thursday, 1 March 2007 17:01 (seventeen years ago) link

I want to be on a chilx song, yes.

― kenan, Thursday, 1 March 2007 17:01 (seventeen years ago) link

Of course I'm in.

― jaymc, Thursday, 1 March 2007 17:02 (seventeen years ago) link

if it's in a or d i'll play or if i can borrow a bass which i've never played before i'll figure something out. and it certainly wouldn't be any worse than my guitar playing.

unrelated but yesterday i thought the t-shirt i'd worn for two days in a row was stinky but i was wrong, IT'S MY HOODIE THAT SMELLS. i need to wash this, pronto.

did i srsly just tell a long boring story about a guy who tells long boring stories?

― kenan, Thursday, 1 March 2007 17:10 (seventeen years ago) link

My first idea is that maybe next weekend, the instrumentalists get together at my practice place and we work out something simple and record it. Then we figure out some words and a time and place where everyone who wants to can assemble and chant the vocals gang-stylee. But Jordan, if you want to be involved you can email me something and I'll collage it in somehow.
I imagine Dan = drums, John = keys, me = guitar, Kevin and/or Sarah = bass, everyone = vocals, but I think everyone should be able to do what they want.

THE ROD TORKLESON GUITAR ARMADA FEATURING HERMAN MENDENCHUK.

― chicago kevin, Thursday, 1 March 2007 17:13 (seventeen years ago) link

i think we need some precussion and go-go dancers. i volunteer for both if no one steps up.

― chicago kevin, Thursday, 1 March 2007 17:14 (seventeen years ago) link

i will play spoons.

― kenan, Thursday, 1 March 2007 17:14 (seventeen years ago) link

Eh, I think it would probably be too difficult to work in sequenced beats, I'll leave the drums to Dan.

hell yeah. I am so the spoonman.

DUAL DRUMMERS

(I don't know if I'm good enough for that)

― dan m, Thursday, 1 March 2007 17:16 (seventeen years ago) link

oh man xpost

― dan m, Thursday, 1 March 2007 17:16 (seventeen years ago) link

it's a 29 piece set

― kenan, Thursday, 1 March 2007 17:17 (seventeen years ago) link

I've only got 4. 8 if you count cymbals.

― dan m, Thursday, 1 March 2007 17:17 (seventeen years ago) link

Now I'm trying to remember: Did he have 29 actual drums or did he count cymbals too? At any rate: ridiculous. I played on a double bass, 6 toms, dozen or so cymbal set before and it was just out of hand.

I was singing "Spoonman" in bed the other day.

― jaymc, Thursday, 1 March 2007 17:21 (seventeen years ago) link

Although if I feel like coming to Chicago and hanging out I could play various percussion/drums/whatever.

Dan - you can probably just use Ben's set, if you don't mind using a kind of tiny drum set.
Jordan - it doesn't matter, it's going to sound like chaos. I don't mean you trying to record something that matches up. Just something crazy we can splice in at some point.

― n/a, Thursday, 1 March 2007 17:27 (seventeen years ago) link

OK, I don't really feel like lugging mine anywhere just for a day, anyway.

Thread killed by ambition

look waht it did to dr. frankenstein.

Caeser had a giant photo of the Allman Brothers, too.

― Eazy, Thursday, 1 March 2007 17:48 (seventeen years ago) link

ah, mystery solved

― kenan, Thursday, 1 March 2007 17:49 (seventeen years ago) link

favorite vandalism of the day: there's a white panel truck parked on the west side of western, just south of division, on it someone spray painted "ARREST DALEY" but on two separate lines leaving enough room for someone to scrawl "TYNE" before daley's name.

it made me giggle then it made me think of cagney & lacey so i guess that's a : \

Kitka got into a tail-chasing fit last night. Going in circles, trying to get at it between her legs, doing somersaults, etc. Girl is crazy.

― Jordan, Thursday, 1 March 2007 18:45 (seventeen years ago) link

Oh and I finished Undeclared. As blonde Apatow girls go, Busy Phillips >>> Monica Keena.

― Jordan, Thursday, 1 March 2007 18:52 (seventeen years ago) link

Monica Keena is blonde? You watched the whole series? I thought you just started it the other day...?

― jaymc, Thursday, 1 March 2007 18:56 (seventeen years ago) link

I guess she is kind of blonde...

― jaymc, Thursday, 1 March 2007 18:57 (seventeen years ago) link

Hmm. Submarine Races open for Love of Diagrams at Schuba's tomorrow. But also, Soundbar. I am scared of Soundbar.

― n/a, Thursday, 1 March 2007 18:59 (seventeen years ago) link

I am scared of Soundbar, too!

I'm having dinner at 7 PM tomorrow night at Thai Aroma, near the Sheridan Red Line stop. I guess I'll probably just go back downtown afterwards, hopefully with enough time to capitalize on the free drinks.

― jaymc, Thursday, 1 March 2007 19:02 (seventeen years ago) link

Who is definitely going to Soundbar? I might be too chicken.

― n/a, Thursday, 1 March 2007 19:02 (seventeen years ago) link

if i don't go to milwaukee tomorrow i will definitely go to soundbar and 80% probably go to schubas.

― chicago kevin, Thursday, 1 March 2007 19:03 (seventeen years ago) link

She's blonde enough. I think I started the series on Monday and there's only about six hours of show in the boxset.
