I got a song idea in my head last night cause of all this. It's been awhile since I've really wanted to write, but I think I'm gonna get back into it. Gets my mind off of a lot of the bad stuff, at least.

I know there's a bunch of singers here, but does anyone play instruments? Looking for drums, bass, maybe another guitarist or keyboardist.

	Depends on the kind of music. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Why, what kind are you into? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Progressive viking death metal. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Seems kind of oxymoronic for viking stuff to be called progressive. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I can neither confirm nor deny the possibility of throwing a bunch of random words together to make a genre. But if viking death metal exists I'm excited to hear it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Apparently it does. "Viking metal is a subgenre of heavy metal music characterised by its galloping pace, keyboard-rich anthemic sound, bleakness and dramatic emphasis on Norse mythology, Norse paganism, and the Viking Age." It also describes the keyboarding as "sorrowful" and "bombastic". Can't find any bands coming to the city that play it though. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Bombastic? That's awesome. I wonder if that's kinda like the weird Christmas metal band? I can't really play guitar for shit anymore. But if being a drummer means beating the shit out of something in any kind of rhythm I think I'd be amazing. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Here, Valhall awaits you. I think I'm too skinny for that kind of music, but I bet I could make my voice do that crazy growl thing. I've never tried to teach drums before, but I bet I could show you how. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	THIS IS AMAZING! That is also amazing. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	I didn't know you wrote songs. That's really cool. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	pinkeffingwings 2009-05-07 01:10 pm UTC (link)
	Yeah, I used to do it a lot ~~until~~. Had to leave my band to come here though. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	You know, now that I think about it you kinda do look like a musician. I can't play any instruments but I promise to come to the first gig that you get. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Oh yeah? Is it the hair? Thanks, that'd be cool. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Will you be offended if I say yes? Well I have to make sure you remember me somehow when you get rich and famous. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Got your writing muse back? ~~That's a good sign,isn't it~~ Think there's at least a handful of musical folks around here. Can't say I'm one of em, but you shouldn't have too much trouble getting em to come outta the woodwork. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	pinkeffingwings 2009-05-07 02:22 pm UTC (link)
	Yeah, kinda. It's a good outlet, at least. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	I don't think I can offer you any help music wise. ~~Because I play a real instrument.~~ But between helping Vea and some of the guys at school with setup stuff I'm getting pretty good with sound equipment. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Thanks Matt. I need to look into some places to buy cheap stuff, do you know of any? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	march_hare_ 2009-05-08 02:03 am UTC (link)
	I think I remember them talking about a few pawn shops that tend to have stuff like that a lot or are really good to check. I'll ask and find out which ones. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	I used to play piano? I mean, I still do, I can still read music. I don't know if you'd want someone better or not but ~~I owe y~~ I can try to help. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	pinkeffingwings 2009-05-07 02:25 pm UTC (link)
	I think you'll be fine, just as long as you don't shove the piano out the window during practice. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I think I have my next Halloween costume figured out. Hey, if RDJ did it for Tropic Thunder, it must be sort of less bad now, right? (Reply to this) (Parent)

	I play guitar if you still need someone for that, and I know Luce plays as well. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Still looking for a rhythm guitarist right now, I didn't know this many people knew how to play. I guess we should all get together and see what comes out? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	madadh 2009-05-07 04:12 pm UTC (link)
	Sure, that's a good idea. I always forget how many musicians there are here until someone makes a post like this. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	I can play any of those but I'm probably best on guitar. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	pinkeffingwings 2009-05-07 03:16 pm UTC (link)
	Think I could grab you for bass? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	worthathousand 2009-05-07 04:19 pm UTC (link)
	I'd be happy to. (Reply to this) (Parent)
