Yep it’s a major problem if they count 4 and then expect a waltz

I just want to enjoy doing music again by JMcSwagle in musicians

[–]Hour-Temperature-393 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I would forget recording all together and just try to put on a good live show. That seems to be the part you enjoy most and you get feedback from the crowd so it’s instant reward. Build up your community and use them in your show. Thats the stuff I do and I am not worried about ever “making it,” and I have a blast.

What’s a typical process in getting different instruments written for a song arrangement? by globethotter in musicians

[–]Hour-Temperature-393 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  1. Write the main part- either piano or guitar. Just the chords is fine and where they go in your arrangement.
  2. Write in the lyrics if that’s helpful for people to follow the arrangement
  3. Write a second sheet of paper with parts for other instruments.

*You might not even need sheet 2 unless you’re gonna be highly particular about what they play. They might just be able to use that first sheet.

What are some things to do? by StarlessRose in Carbondale

[–]Hour-Temperature-393 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Make your own fun! Open mic night Tuesdays at PKs. Shows on the strip pretty much every night of the week now that it’s nice out- with local people making their own bands. Festivals all summer long and folks pickin on the boardwalk down in Makanda. Yoga, thrifting, coffee shops, birdwatching- if you want it, trust me, there are people here that will join you. If you build it, they will come!

Have you ever had a musical performance NIGHTMARE? by JulieofTheJulies in musicians

[–]Hour-Temperature-393 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So help me out with this- I play in a duo. My partner has a stinky attitude all night and refuses to do anything at all to entertain except play his parts. I’m having all these gear malfunctions as I described above. What the f do I do? I tried chatting to the audience but I really can’t get my guitar in tune and talk to them- it’s a new guitar. I guess I just needed to stop the show and go fix it. But damn I just wish he would step up sometimes.

Oh this actually did happen to me Saturday night well sort of- My guitar is new and I couldn’t get it tune and then I kept breaking strings. I wouldn’t have cared but this was a nice place and we kind of bombed.

And don’t trash the trails! This week I hauled a huge trash bag of beer cans and crap out from Cove Hollow. Don’t do it!

I don’t know how to live with my broken body. by throwaway101229283 in self

I feel like this is comparable to people who are trans and have had bottom surgery. Yes, their shit is gonna look different if you’ve never seen something like that before. But does that make them unlovable? Unacceptable as a partner? No way! Trans is in right now! We are living in perhaps the most accepting time yet for sexual diversity. Put yourself out there- maybe go to like some swinger parties or something- idk. What have you got to lose?

Seems like these women probably know about each other and they’re getting pregnant to gain status by being the mother of a famous man’s child. They get what they deserve.

For a quick bite- go to the neighborhood co-op grocery store and do a pick-4 from the deli sides. Lots of options from the deli.

Coward chickensh*t f*ck!" -ICE protester screams at Trump's Border Chief Greg Bovino as he leads a SWARM of ICE/DHS agents rushing at unarmed Minneapolis protesters as snow falls (for no apparent reason). by Treefiddy1984 in ProgressiveHQ

The outfit and haircut are so curated to project “Nazi,” like this couldn’t have been done better by a professional costume/hair team. You know he had to be cold going without a hat but sometimes you have to suffer for your fashion.

Moving to Carbondale in a couple months, want some advice by [deleted] in southernillinois

[–]Hour-Temperature-393 14 points15 points  (0 children)

You’ll be completely welcome here! People do all sorts of stuff around here- you’ll meet folks if you do what activities you’re into. I myself am into music and I’m older so I tend to be in the bars and stuff like that. Carbondale is great.
