What about Bluegrass? A lot of folk and accoustic music dosen't have drumming.

There is no such thing as a bad voice as long as it suits the mood of the music.

^So what you're saying is that there IS such a thing as a bad voice, which is when that voice doesn't fit with the mood of the music?
I think maybe the most important instrument in the band is whichever one is being played by the person who kicks everybody else's asses and tells them when what they're playing is crappy music. |

I think many of the best bands are the ones where the ideas of every member contributes to the overall music, it becomes more of a community thing. In short, I prefer bands over backing bands. And if I join a band, its not going to be a backing band. Why play just to satisfy the ego of some assh*le who think he's the next Bob Dylan? Why not do my own thing? A musician as an artist has the right to indulge himself, regardless of what instrument he plays. Well ok, there are some exceptions, I wouldn't recommend letting the triangle player do a solo.

Yeah, it is possible to be goofy and witty at the same time. Zappa discovered that thin line between brilliant and stupid. ![]() |
