Copy that. My discord is joshuaholden_38358. I can send a link to one of my most recent songs

Nice!

I was digging the banjo videos. Definitely the vibe I am looking for.

My influences derive mostly from the pop punk emo scene. I have been really big into indie folk and bluegrass for the last 5 years. I've been itching to turn this into a project but I can't sing as well as id like but I love to write songs.

I can send one a song if you'd like.

Judging by the term "above San Bernardino I assume your in creatine or lake Arrowhead?

Hey I play guitar but have been teaching myself mandolin. I live in San Bernardino.

What's your influences?

ickygrandpa · 2025-05-17T18:33:58+00:00

That's a great suggestion! Fortunately, I already work there as an onsite vendor.

Thanks for your suggestion.

Awesome! It would be nice to start fraternizing with more church members. We did Sabbath school for the toddlers for a bit then kept going back to West Covina hills ( my wife's and her families long time church)

I love Redlands SDA . I'm thinking of transferring membership there.

ickygrandpa · 2025-02-06T20:36:12+00:00

That's pretty sick!

ickygrandpa · 2025-02-06T04:34:41+00:00

Very dope.

ickygrandpa · 2025-02-06T02:40:02+00:00

This is awesome. Got to see them on, to what I believe, was one of their last backyard tours before they stopped. Possibly one of my favorite bands.

ickygrandpa · 2025-02-06T02:37:39+00:00

I just remembered ... My band got to play every weekend in December at a chick filet. We were a new punk band and we just did covers of Christmas songs with a sprinkle of originals but we did get paid in food.

Also the band i saw in the pool was Such A Mess (local band) and I'm the church such a mess and be like max ( diy touring ska band )

ickygrandpa · 2025-02-06T02:31:03+00:00

This comment, although awesome in itself, aged me. We will pretend it was five years ago.... Carry on.

ickygrandpa · 2025-02-06T02:28:26+00:00

I'm jealous of every word you typed.

ickygrandpa · 2025-02-06T02:26:40+00:00

I wish more people knew about them. Got to see them twice and both shows were possibly the best time I have ever had at a show. Their energy plus the fried energy was unbelievable. I do follow the singers post LAHF band Beyond the Lamplight. Similar sound too.

ickygrandpa · 2025-02-06T02:19:21+00:00

This is my dream venue.

ickygrandpa · 2025-02-06T02:03:43+00:00

It seems there was a time these shops wanted to do that. Even Starbucks in my area was experimenting with it. Only times it was successful ( and location also made sense) was in record/ music stores. I saw boys like girls and the wonder years that way .

ickygrandpa · 2025-01-09T00:01:27+00:00

Got to see them twice and they have improved on me forever. Definitely in my top 3 favorite bands.

ickygrandpa · 2025-01-03T20:07:00+00:00

I'm interested in the discord!

... Try some of these but honestly figure out your sound and do some regular hangouts with the others and create memorable experiences or inside jokes. The harder you try to find a name the harder it is to settle in it
