Oh yeah, 'cause if Deathm0le achieves any level of success, even if it's just playing the bar circuit, Marten will definitely have no more trouble attracting the ladies, since women are generally hot for musicians, especially when they see them performing. And from what I've seen  and heard about how women act around their favorite musicians, Marten's ineptitude with women (that he doesn't know well anyway) wouldn't be an issue either-they'd be jumping him the way Dora did.

Speaking of Dora, it'd be interesting to see how she'd react to all that attention. On the one hand, she may want some of that herself, may want her Marty back. On the other hand, all the female attention he'd be getting may remind her too much of the attention Sven gets and she may end up so repulsed by it that she'd want to distance herself from Marten completely. It would be ironic if one of the end results of Marten achieving some success with the band would be him losing touch with yet another ex.

For that matter, depending on how Marten reacted to all the female attention/adulation, Faye may end up not being able to stand him either...

So why is it bad to be in a "Metallica cover band" ?

Not that I would like Metallica much or anything.

--- End quote ---

They went after Napster and pissed off a bunch of fans. For a band that was touted as being "against the grain" (or whatever the terminology was back then) and to do a corporate greed move like that tarnished the name forever. 

Also, Lars Ulrich is a total and huge douchebag during that whole debacle. Didn't help his credibility or his bands reputation when he went around acting like a spoiled brat. 

DSL:
Some of this talk about Marten and Deathmole's success or lack of any hope thereof reminds me of a former co-worker who, seconds after meeting a girl/woman, had plotted out in his mind the dating, the courtship, the wedding, the married life and difficulties thereof, the falling-out, and the acrimony of the property split during the divorce. Meanwhile, she's thinking, "What's this guy's name again?"
He got over it, met and married and has graduated from law school.
So there's hope.
He even looks sort of like a tall, geeky, even-more-woebegone Marten.

I don't always quote, but when I do, I Quote For Truth.

Alright, music majors: I know you are out there. Let us know what those other riffs are, so we can get the jokes.

--- End quote ---
The SG is a better fit for the heavy sound that Deathmole is going for anyway.
Not that you can't play heavy sounds on a Tele, just the SG does it more better.

And, you sound like you were going 100% rock-n-roll "many years ago".  :-D
Unless you're clumsy  :-o :laugh:
