ROCKPAGE

I was at Classic Attitudes this past Wednesday for ALL AGE show. Five new talent bands played and had a decent showing. Maybe hopefully this can be something to take off with. I am not sure who to get a hold of for bands to get in. Hopefully this can be a weekly thing to help new bands out and get o...

we had just missed it, but i guess 2 members from disturbed hit up finch right before they went on...ended up in like a 30 person brawl, but i dont think anybody was hurt..bad....but i would assume disturbed looked and came out on top, Dave went off during their set about kickin their ass again and ...

I just came back from the Rolling Rock Town Fair, and it was pretty damn fun! and the show was excellent too. This is a little review/experience summary. First, it was muddy!!! There was a HUGE mud slide and everybody was flingin mudd and stuff, so, hopefully you weren't wearing anything good! Typic...

holy smokes! thats a lot to take in, i appreciate all the effort....looks like its s question that had more of a complicated response then i thought...thanks all for the responses!

ahhh how many drunken times have hit ALL the wrong buttons and ended up with a meatball sub with ranch dressing, bacon, olives, chili sauce, bbq sauce, and of course, pickles.

OK, i have been trying to figure this whole key thing out, and i dont seem to get it.... if i am playing any series of chords, how on earth do i figure the key, i heard its the root note of the main chord, but how do you know what the main chord is? any suggestions?

Ron makes an excellent point, if no drums, no real need for 15s. Of course you always want to hear them first, but speakers are only as good as you make them. $1500 can sound like crap if you dont use them correctly, and $100 speakers can sound like a dream if done correct. When you listen to them, ...

All are good choices, but soundtracks we gotta say are the two to DAZED AND CONFUSED, kick ass movie, and awesome soundtracks, com'on the beginning with that badass GTO and sweet emotion (which isnt on the soundtracks, go figure that out) whats better? hahahah

I must say, some of the best "hot" wings i have had are at the whistle stop, #3 definately have some zip to them. Also, Dave at the Club Car makes some tasty wings. If you are traveling to Indiana, Boomerang's definately has it, the Lousiana Lover's Sauce is delicious! Definately worth try...

hey anybody got great sites for guitar tuturials and lessons with midi files and such to play along with ? looking for some shred/scales/soloing stuff to help me out some more.....thankx

maybe it has something to do with charter, i had some weird message when it moved about using charter..something with the domains... who knows.... maybe its all connected

Actually right now i have the Oysterhead CD in, good listenin'. New Blink CD, very good, and some SoundGarden Downthe upside, good stuff to make you pick up your instrument and play!

Well, figured everybody just moved on....Hey maybe you can get a gig at Louie's Coral Lounge, heard they are looking for people?

i am remaining neutral, but for another point, its not the club's (in general) responsibility to provide for the production nor should it be held against them because the band paid for it. that was THEIR CHOICE to spend the money for production. Nor do i remember them signing a contract. Obviously t...

i dont mean to be hostile or anything but i am very neutral in everything, but is this the whole story? i go to the club car consistantly and have never had a bad thing happen there, its a clean nice atmosphere...and pretty cheap...i am sorry you had a bad experience, but did you sign a contract and...

When you are an opening band, do you think you should see the headliners setlist adn see what songs they are playing so you dont play a song they are doing? Do you play it anyways? or try to fit something else? What if the opening band plays a song you are going to do as the headliner? Do you do the...

i would definately have to say lights make a difference...its the difference between seeing a "band" and seeing a "performance" lights make the attitude, feeling, and environment at a show...and besides that it adds professionalism and flavor to the artist performing...

i personally use a hughes and kettner triamp through a carvin cab.. i get the sound I WANT....gear i agree is half of the battle....but gear wise, try out some line 6, johnson, and Hughes and Kettner stuff...i am partial to the H & K myself....amazing what you can do with them.....

depends if you want to go rack mount or pod system....but you can get a mounting kit for a pod to fit in a rack... the pods are much cheaper...i have a nady uhf pod system, it was $250...probably cheaper now, and works fine, no problems..goes 40yards with no delay..but if you go rack mount, samson a...

thanks for the hint, i had check boxes to select recording, and it was selected on wave output mix, i selected it to my input, i shall try it tomorrow since its late.. but i bet that was the problem...thanks!

well i am not expert, but make sure that the 2nd thingy is running from the 1st thingy and that you have a program thing that adjusts the two things together, but in case that your 1st thing is smaller thatn the 2nd thing you have to use a different program thing to cancel the effect of the 2nd thin...

well, thats the thing, i am trying to do it myself, with no drummer...and i was just seeing which one sounded more realistic, drum machine or fruity loops..and i am having a problem with cakewalk, when i record my first track it comes out fine, but then when i lay the second track ,it records the 1s...

i notice the noise i get on the volume meter, and that the trim increases it as i increase the trim, so i am guessing you want the trim low to lower the noise? Then the volume is the overall volume of the track and the volume at the very bottom is the overall master mix volume? I am guessing that yo...

OK, well i see the MIDI thing work out, I tried that fruity loops thing, everything sounds good but the cymbols, i guess it's the closest thing i can get besides having a kit... NOW.. my problem is with cakewalk that when i record one track, then i go to record a lead over the track.. it records the...

ok, so when would i use a midi track vs an audio track? Does cakewalk have drums built in, i see sample drums tracks, but couldnt find the drum machine, how do i get into it if there is one?
