Whats your chill

[Shallowhal]

Box of shrooms and a stroll around Amsterdams red light district!

Do yu ever go inta the studio shall an bang the shite out of the drums?  Or ar yu can play at home..... There's nuttin like it for stress...... Better than sex.... As far as I can remember that is 

I had a Roland TD6K kit that i got in 2007,i sold them in 2016,they were great for a bash with the headphones on or with the monitor when the house was empty and the neighbours out,i still have my Premier Resonator kit that i bought in 85 for a grand complete with hardware and Zildjian hi hats/cymbals....i put them in the attic in their cases when we moved here in 99....haven't battered them since...but i'm hearing ye!!

You both should have stuck with the drums.....serious shortage of them everywhere. Must be great to get paid for doing something you enjoy or love. They said the machines would render them irrelevant......hasn't happened.

Yu can make a few bob at weddings... But after a while Lip can yu imagine playing the same shite over an over again...?
" don't stop believing "
" o me o my yur such a good lookin woman "lady in red who's dancing with me"
Over and over and over......
Yud start to hate the fukin drums..... Yud be kicking the fukin things into yur gaff after a gig an trown them at the wall....

No thanks.....

Taxi.... Best job in the world...
Grab the keys
Jump in the car
Make money from yur door
 Go home

Money for old rope

I know but still a nice way to earn a few bob. Every second fella plays the guitar. Think i'd like to learn the Clarinet and maybe the Sax after me lungs improve.

Go for it....
There's an owlfella blowing the sax a phone on me beach in the summer... Without me permission.....
The poor owld cnut is about 90 so i can't clock him one..... But anyway the poor cnut hasn't a note in his head..... I think hes half senile... But have to admire him..... He doesn't give a Bollix about everyone laughin at him making all these fart noises and squeaks
Poor cnut

Need a set of tubes on you for the Sax and Trumpet............best to start on the smaller wind instruments, I think. Played the tin whistle and recorder yrs ago..mind you, I could cycle from Dublin to Cavan back then.

I did a few gigs with a cover band many moons ago...played the Big Tree a few times...i thought that's what i wanted to do but as Octy says it does become a bit samey and you wouldn't be making that much per gig...certainly not a Sat nights takings....wedding bands can command big money...there's an outfit called The Bently Boys....they're actually a company,they could have 100 or more musicians,my nephew(in law) had them last year....€5000 for the night.

Jaysus you wouldn't get that in a week in the cab, not even during the silly season.

As i said RC,it's a company...the musicians themselves would probably be only getting a wage plus travel,my niece(in law) has them booked for her wedding in Donegal next year,probably a completely different set of musicians under The Bentley Boys name.
