I know this is a really wacky question. But as I sit here typing responses to some of the threads on DW, it almost feels like I'm working a drum solo, even crossing over certain fingers to hit keys in a sequence, and with some type of rhythm. It seems that those with dexterity skills would...
I've been at gigs where it takes the band way too long to end one song and start the next one. It can happen for a whole host of reasons, but it's usually due to one of these:
1) Guitarists switching guitars
2) Guitarists tuning guitars
3) Front man trying to talk too much (shout outs to...
I assume this was done in the late 70s. Not a real difficult piece of music, but cool to see all these musicians. BTW - what kind of drums was Bonzo playing?
Guitars: Denny Laine, Laurence Juber, David Gilmour, Hank Marvin, Pete Townshend
Drums: Steve Holley, John Bonham, Kenney Jones
Piano...
Yesterday, my church sponsored a float in the local Memorial Day Parade in NJ. This is the 4th or 5th year we've done this, with our band playing for about two hours. The float was basically a metal trailer pulled by a pickup truck. The parade was very slow moving, with several stops along...
Last night at church the band played without our bass player - we were relegated to singers, lead guitar, rhythm guitar and drums (sax player was also absent). After the service, my wife commented that the band sounded really good and tight. I have to agree, but the question is why? I have...
I was always liked McCartney's song Band on The Run. It was virtually three distinct songs in one, but they all seemed to build upon each other and sound like they fit together. But one song that always bugged me was Lionel Richie's hit 80's song Say You Say Me. The song has a nice mellow...
Actually I think being calm about it and just telling him you weren't involved is the best way to go. If he senses that the accusation got your heart rate up even 1 BPM, it will be like a shark attracted to waters with blood in them. Never stoop to his level. If he continues this nonsense...
My concern over quitting would be that others may think you actually did steal them. If accused, definitely confront him and ask who he thinks stole them. My answer would be "what would I do with two microphones?" Would he think you pawned them for cash?
Also, why did this guy Dan leave...
I'll start this one off:
Caught Up in You - 38 Special
It probably cost them about $100 to make the video. Check out all the bad hair and awkward dancing!

How many artists can you name, that Jeff Porcaro did session work with? Of course, this is only a partial list.

Last night my rock and blues band had their annual gig at a fundraiser for a local fire company. I am not nearly ready yet to play full time, after my cancer treatments and major surgery. But the band wanted me to play a few songs with them, so I agreed. They have had a couple different...
I have this concert DVD. One of the most talented bands I've ever heard and one of my favorite songs. With Simon Philips on drums. Never have I seen such intensity on a bass guiter (Jeff's brother).

I was watching my Led Zeppelin concert DVD last night (one of my all-time favs), and I noticed that at the beginning of Whole Lotta Love, it seems that Bonham came in prematurely (about 7-8 seconds in). He then stops playing and comes back in when he did on the record version. Right...
