I'm in the Band

Was wondering if you had ever been or currently are part of a band? If so, what did you play, what were you named? What is your experience with it?

While I play the electroacoustic, without distortion, at church, we aren't really a band, though we'd like to be one. Currently we formed a band at the tech institute, and we'll be playing covers for now, starting with "Nothing Else Matters". No direct name, though we joked about a combination of puns from the two major terms that came after the political coup over here in '09. I'm the second guitarist, playing an electric one.

So, what about you?

I was in a band.

We were called the C***Blockers. I was the lead singer.

I was in a band that had a smallish following in and around Camden London. They went through several names and contacted me to join them... they were called Those Velvet Lips while I was with them. This was 10 years ago. I played and still do play drums but I'm a guitarist first and foremost.

After a year or so I had to give it up due to having financial responsibilities that had to come first. Fun while it lasted but I made a good move since they all moved away from music eventually and the band never left the bar scene around London.

Now I'm working in the marketing side of music industry.

I do a solo thing, nothing more than rough demos so far as I'm lacking the funds for a decent studio. Check the Soundcloud link in my signature if you're curious. PsychoRedFox666

More than being in a band?... No, but I don't hate my current role.
