I liked Jon when he was still underground.

― Dom Passantino (Dom Passantino), Sunday, 16 May 2004 22:44 (twenty-two years ago)

― strongo hulkington (dubplatestyle), Sunday, 16 May 2004 22:45 (twenty-two years ago)

― strongo hulkington (dubplatestyle), Sunday, 16 May 2004 22:45 (twenty-two years ago)

can i be a roadie for the band? i need some life-on-the-road experience before i start my own band that will blow y'all's asses out of the water.

― latebloomer (latebloomer), Sunday, 16 May 2004 22:48 (twenty-two years ago)

My band name The Ladyfest Planning Committee still hasn't been taken by anyone.

― scott seward (scott seward), Sunday, 16 May 2004 22:48 (twenty-two years ago)

U NERDS JUST BE BASHFUL WHEN JON IS TALKIN BOUT CHICKS

― deanomgwtf!!!p%3Fmsgid%3D4581997 (deangulberry), Sunday, 16 May 2004 22:53 (twenty-two years ago)

i wouldn't mind having a drummer like doorag..

― chris andrews (fraew), Sunday, 16 May 2004 22:53 (twenty-two years ago)

I can scream good. I also have extensive experience in throwing things at people in the audience due to my involvement with Bunny Brains.

― scott seward (scott seward), Sunday, 16 May 2004 23:00 (twenty-two years ago)

Let me in the band. I can play air banjo and the electric hookah.

― o. nate (onate), Sunday, 16 May 2004 23:01 (twenty-two years ago)

I was to be in a band with two more of myself because I can't play the melodica while I am messing with loops and pedals.

― deanomgwtf!!!p%3Fmsgid%3D4581997 (deangulberry), Sunday, 16 May 2004 23:03 (twenty-two years ago)

I can chime in with a kazoo if necessary.

I can get a good deal on studio time here on the Vineyard. These dudes I know have a studio and they use James Taylor's mixing-board.

― scott seward (scott seward), Sunday, 16 May 2004 23:05 (twenty-two years ago)

Guitar, bass, ukelele, keyboard here

5 year bass veteran..

― chris andrews (fraew), Sunday, 16 May 2004 23:12 (twenty-two years ago)

My fantasy band with Jel and Lucy Lurex would need a drummer (I play guitar but would happily switch to bass to accomodate those two six-stringers) so if you'd be willing to play pop-metal you can be in it too, Roxymuzak.

― Anthony Miccio (Anthony Miccio), Sunday, 16 May 2004 23:13 (twenty-two years ago)

I hear that Ladyfest Black Mambazo is also still available.

or Aerosmith Black Mambazo.

― stockholm cindy (Jody Beth Rosen), Sunday, 16 May 2004 23:15 (twenty-two years ago)

― Sonny A. (Keiko), Sunday, 16 May 2004 23:15 (twenty-two years ago)

Oh, they don't like Neu 75? Count me out.

― roxymuzak (roxymuzak), Sunday, 16 May 2004 23:20 (twenty-two years ago)

i like anthony's idea of a band with me and jel, and i would happily be the drummer. as long as no-one minds that i have not yet mastered the foot pedals, am liberal with cymbals and pretend the floor tom is the kick.

― The Lady Ms Lurex (lucylurex), Sunday, 16 May 2004 23:21 (twenty-two years ago)

Percussion will be performed by a 3 pop cans inside a dryer set on TOWELS.

― jack cole (jackcole), Sunday, 16 May 2004 23:21 (twenty-two years ago)

Are you Meg White?

― deanomgwtf!!!p%3Fmsgid%3D4581997 (deangulberry), Sunday, 16 May 2004 23:23 (twenty-two years ago)

No, she's Meg Tucker! And we'd be the Velvet Underground of pop metal!

― Anthony Miccio (Anthony Miccio), Sunday, 16 May 2004 23:24 (twenty-two years ago)

Meg Tucker!

― roxymuzak (roxymuzak), Sunday, 16 May 2004 23:24 (twenty-two years ago)

di would eat meg up and spit out her bones

― the surface noise of psychotic badassery (electricsound), Sunday, 16 May 2004 23:24 (twenty-two years ago)

Moe Tucker, I mean.

― Anthony Miccio (Anthony Miccio), Sunday, 16 May 2004 23:24 (twenty-two years ago)

I thought it was some crazy hybrid.

― roxymuzak (roxymuzak), Sunday, 16 May 2004 23:25 (twenty-two years ago)

― Anthony Miccio (Anthony Miccio), Sunday, 16 May 2004 23:27 (twenty-two years ago)

Aerosmith Black Mambazo.

omg

― gabbneb (gabbneb), Sunday, 16 May 2004 23:28 (twenty-two years ago)

i'm not actively primitive like meg, i just haven't had enough practice.

― The Lady Ms Lurex (lucylurex), Sunday, 16 May 2004 23:32 (twenty-two years ago)

(i've only drummed on two songs in my life)

― The Lady Ms Lurex (lucylurex), Sunday, 16 May 2004 23:32 (twenty-two years ago)

If Lucy is on drums and Anthony is on bass, can I be the other guitarist?

― sundar subramanian (sundar), Sunday, 16 May 2004 23:33 (twenty-two years ago)

I can be an occasional vocalist too, for songs that require high notes but not much talent.

― sundar subramanian (sundar), Sunday, 16 May 2004 23:34 (twenty-two years ago)

as long as you don't go all Alex Lifeson on us, sure!

And wow, each member of the quartet would be from a different country!

I think we'd all switch off vocals Sloan/Beatles-style.

― Anthony Miccio (Anthony Miccio), Sunday, 16 May 2004 23:35 (twenty-two years ago)

Does being the VU of pop-metal mean that we do or don't play in key/time?

― sundar subramanian (sundar), Sunday, 16 May 2004 23:36 (twenty-two years ago)

depends on the album

― Begs2Differ (Begs2Differ), Tuesday, 18 May 2004 03:15 (twenty-two years ago)

VU-wise, Julio should be our Angus MacLise.

-- Anthony Miccio (anthonymicci...), May 17th, 2004. (later)

since he was the best VU member, I accept.

― Julio Desouza (jdesouza), Tuesday, 18 May 2004 11:07 (twenty-two years ago)

― Pashmina (Pashmina), Tuesday, 18 May 2004 11:17 (twenty-two years ago)

[hipster] I really don't bother with VU after white light/white heat, and then only interested in metal machine music [/hipster]

― Julio Desouza (jdesouza), Tuesday, 18 May 2004 11:19 (twenty-two years ago)

[hipsterer than thou] actually, the only vu worth bothering with is this totally unlistenable demo rehearsal tape I have from before they cut the "andy warhol" album [/hipsterer than thou]

― Pashmina (Pashmina), Tuesday, 18 May 2004 11:25 (twenty-two years ago)

― Pashmina (Pashmina), Tuesday, 18 May 2004 11:38 (twenty-two years ago)

It's what hipsters do............. come out with stuff like that

― Dadaismus (Dada), Tuesday, 18 May 2004 11:39 (twenty-two years ago)

let's be honest: the best VU album is the s/t one.

― Ian Johnson (orion), Tuesday, 18 May 2004 14:46 (twenty-two years ago)

lets be honest, the best VU album would be a combination of the first two, certain songs cut.

― jack cole (jackcole), Tuesday, 18 May 2004 14:47 (twenty-two years ago)

Let's be honest, the best VU album is Metal Machine Music, with Desertshore a close second.

― 24 hours with the King of Snake. (SNAKE!) (ex machina), Tuesday, 18 May 2004 14:49 (twenty-two years ago)

my goldfish hates Metal Machine Music.
