[Techdeth]

I always have played in bands where I or we write all the songs . What’s some tips .
Live since I cover a lot of ground I’m going to use a Diezel Vh4 since it covers 4 channels and I know it well . Into Warhead 4x12 with v30s
. This is like selling my soul but oh well
Here’s my practice the 40 songs right the fuck now practice rig
I’m such a hick

Is one of the cover songs "Hay Hay, We're The Monkeys"?

Is that a Hot Wheels package taped to the wall? WTF?











Edit: Thought you might like an audience while you practice:

My main tip is don't see it as "selling your soul", just have fun playing some cover tunes I assume you like and do it to the best of your ability.

 

[Rottweiler]

Yeah Tech you are a great player. You will do great. You will be advertising your skills every time you perform. It might lead to something great.

Hay.

Let’s see; I also spy a sword, a snakeskin walking stick(?), a makeshift truck floor mat pedalboard, what appears to be kids blankets on top of the bales of hay and the proverbial cherry on top, a “lowered lifestyle” sticker on the white cabinet. Yup, everything checks out.

What kind of covers will you be doing? You may like it! For the first time, you'll see people dancing and singing along to the songs having a blast. You may also go home with $100-200 in your pocket.

Some people don't mind it, others hate it

It mostly depends on the pay and how bad the cover songs are

I made quite a bit of money playing cover songs, but it wasn't worth it compared to the only slightly less money I make playing originals, so I bowed out

But that math is different for everyone

Just be aware that it's a completely different scene and way of doing things, and if you play with other bands they take for fuck's sake ever to get their gear off the stage in-between sets compared to original bands

someone from a different band will ask to borrow the VH-4 ......... and then proceed to blow it up .... right before your set

That picture almost looks like a screenshot from a hidden object, computer game.

I'm guessing the sword is the only sharp object he has that has any affect on his toenails.

I'm still baffled about the Hot Wheels taped to the wall ...... wonder if it's the Trans Am from Smokey and the Bandit ??

Taping Hot Wheels to the wall is perfectly acceptable.

Hot Wheels is just a fetish code name for his feet
