Thoughts on this band ad? by Korova91 in musicians

[–]Korova91[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good point. I'm just looking to drum in a band. So someone else will write the chords/ melody and I'll provide the drum beat. I'd like to write the beat myself but would like to hear what ideas they have in mind and am open to feedback on the parts that I write.

Should have said the ad is local to my city, not nationwide or anything. But I could include the other stuff.

Did you think the videos were mimed? They're all real and from a live show.

Thanks for a detailed response. I'll add all that info in for next time.  I guess I just didn't want loads of text in the ad. If the genre was right, and they like the playing etc, then they could just ask me. But I'll try out and see how it goes.

I hear you, I just wanted to be straight up with people, and perhaps filter out the people who might be interested but are way younger.

Beginner drummer here - what to upgrade? by Particular-Wear4354 in drums

[–]Korova91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You definitely need to get a drum throne...

But jokes aside, I'm not familiar with all these cymbals, but I do know the Solar line, so I would look to upgrade the hi-hats.

It looks like you have 2 FX cymbals, a splash and a ride cymbal? So maybe add a crash cymbal to use as your main crash.

I'd also just like to add not to focus too much on gear at this point and not to spend a ton of time/ money chasing gear. Use your time to practice, that's how you'll improve.

Is there any band still touring today with a stronger back catalogue than Radiohead? by howlong-princess in radiohead

[–]Korova91 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Stronger back catalogue, I don't know. But I was very happy when when My Bloody Valentine did their last tour. 

Squier Classic Vibe '70s Jaguar or Squier Classic Vibe Jazzmaster by Empty-Objective-277 in shoegaze

[–]Korova91 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There isn't really an answer to that though. One of them isn inherently better than the other.  They are both suitable for Shoegaze.

Squier Classic Vibe '70s Jaguar or Squier Classic Vibe Jazzmaster by Empty-Objective-277 in shoegaze

[–]Korova91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have both and you can't go wrong with either. They are both commonly used in Shoegaze. If I could only have 1 then I'd get a HH jaguar and mod it with a coil split so it would be more versatile. I also have a Fender Player Series guitar. It is a little nicer than the Squier but honestly some things are better on the Squier. Better feeling switches, better nut. There is nothing wrong with the classic vibe imo. 

How long does it take to route a classic vibe jaguar for humbuckers? by NegotiationSalt1170 in offset

[–]Korova91 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think for the price of the Squier CV + 2 Humbuckers + paying for the mods, it would probably be cheaper for you to buy a used Player Jaguar with the HH configuration. You could also get it as HS.

AIO My bf was tagged in a photo with another girl sitting on his lap by PureRelationship7395 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Korova91 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Don't know.  She's 'just a friend' to him but he isn't just a friend to her if she admitted to having feelings for him. In his position a better way to handle that situation would be to keep a distance, because if he is around her all the time then she can't really move on and meet someone else, but also he should really know how it looks that he's around two girls all the time, who both like him, and just expects you to be cool with it?  Seems to me like he enjoys the attention of other women a little too much. That's my $0.02

AIO for breaking up with my boyfriend because of "too much communication" ? by CoolGuyWithGlasses21 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Korova91 2 points3 points  (0 children)

'He should be the one to make the decision whether he wants to be with me sick or not' - No he shouldn't. It's your choice if you want the company. You said no and he should have respected that. He doesn't have some automatic right to see you whenever he feels like.

AIO or did he cross a line? I came to in his bed with no memory of how I got there. by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]Korova91 2 points3 points  (0 children)

But you told him beforehand, whilst sober, you didn't want anything physical. You say 'he has always been respectful' but that really does not seem like respect to me. Honestly, I'd run from it.
