So uh. Yeah. The title pretty much says it all. Do you have your own bands? If so, post links here in this thread.
And yes, I have my own band. We are called OB/Gyn Kenobi. So far the recordings on there are just me, guitarist/drummer Patrick James, on the guitar. I hope they don't suck *too* much for you. Trust me, we're a lot better when it's Lukas and Richard on guitar, Wesley Charles on bass, and me on drums. Like, exponentially better.
Nice to meet you all, by the way. I'm still rather new to the forums.
-
I've heard of some people on these forums that are in this band called...
*sigh*
Trip.
;-)

Trip are on here? I thought they changed their name to Robots Talk In Twos?
Oh, and my band is called INABIAL. We are deliebrately terrible. And even if everyone else hates it, we enjoy ourselves!
-
Most awesome. Sadly though, I don't know who Trip is. I'm kindof stuck in 1975 with Led Zeppelin. :B

Haha! That be me (bass, vocals), Sturge (guitar, vocals) and Carl(Fabio) (drums).
Dan (the lead singer and keyboard player) has yet to call a practice, although I have heard that he wants one. Dear Christ. Trip are an opera metal/hard rock/glam band, this is going to be very funny indeed.
My other band is called The Orgasmic Hellos, who are me (guitar, vocals, bass), Carl (drums) and Bianca(see "Female Singers" thread) (vocals, guitar).
Yeah, we rule.
-
I'm in *sigh* Trip.
I'm also in my main band, Joe Man Hater
and Fabio and my awesome side project. A Synthpop band called "Slow-Motion Nazi-Death"
-
Or as Carl seems to call it 'Slow Motion Nani Death'
-
I'm the postermonkey for my girlfriend's band, Sir Reginald Cosgrove and His Night Time Singers. No website yet, but they've had three gigs, so I've done a couple posters, one of which is in my LJ picture album along with some gig photos:
http://pics.livejournal.com/fenmere/gallery/000065gw
And another poster:
http://pics.livejournal.com/fenmere/pic/00003pt8/
I'm in the first picture, too! I'm the... er... art chick on the left.
-
Was in a band, kinda defunct now, drummer flaked out, havent found a replacement yet. Me and my friend who is the guitarist might just hook up with another band that is looking.
But we were calle Twisted Middle Finger
-
Haha the name Twisted Middle Finger kinda makes me think of rotten.com.
-
"I was in a band once... yeah... I seen it all. I once drove a car into a hotel room... had sex with two girls at the same time... ate an entire horse..."
-
Well, I had Sir Reg play at my thirtieth birthday. I'd say that was way better than driving a car into a hotel room any day. But I'm not sure it beats eating a horse.
-
I'm in a band, I won't say it's mine...name's Lost in Tv, we haven't recorded anything yet, but we're working on it. I also do some solo stuff.
Hmm hmm (http://www.myspace.com/lostintv) Looks like one of the bandmates got this set up. Add us. Pleeeasssseee.
-
i play bass occasionaly for my mates metal band, more oftenly on their crappy black metal side project.
i tried to make a crappy soft rock band with some guys before, but it kinda failed coz we had a useless drummer.
-
I'm not in a band, but I do have ambitions to start one. I even have the name of the band thought out already......
Crusty Tissue Overdrive.
-
No, but me and a couple of my friends are major fans of a band called Team Undysfunctional(with the un crossed out) which I made up. We got T-shirts and everything. It's become something of a running joke between us. OMG TEAM UNDYSFUNCTIONAL SO SOLD OUT! Actually, one of their 'albums' is called Selloutz!.
We're thinking of making it an actual band, which is why I'm learning guitar and my friend is learning keyboard. I made a terrible mistake, though. I got a spanish guitar. I have small girly hands, spanish guitar too wide for me. Can't do a lot of chords properly. :( I wish I had known this before I bought it, but sadly, I was guitar illiterate at the time.
EDIT:
This was the logo I designed that went on the T-shirts. It's terrible. >_>'

"I was in a band once... yeah... I seen it all. I once drove a car into a hotel room... had sex with two girls at the same time... ate an entire horse..."
THE D!
But seriously, that series is amazing.
I was in a really shitty metal band for about 13 seconds, and quit when they named themselves "Plethora of Blood". Seriously, guys, you can do better than that.

Plethora of Blood? That doesn't even make sense.
-
Oh, waitwaitwait! I was in a band once. We called ourself the EFB. We never made any music, unless you count the IDM type noises that we produced one night while drinking Mike's Hard Lemonade. But I do have a shirt and hat with the logo on 'em.
And we had a website.
-
Plethora of Blood? That doesn't even make sense.
I know! Hey guys, we're an excess of blood of blood. LETS RIP OFF LAMB OF GOD

-
I always wanted to make electronic music under the name Flux Capacitor to see if Steven Speilberg would sue my ass.
-
I really want to be in a band. I also really want to be able to play guitar. Neither seem to be happening for me...
I write songs though. And when I was in 8th grade my friend and I wanted to start a band called the 'Carnivorous Snails'. But then everyone else I knew thought it was a crap band name...and so my 8th grade dreams were shattered. (not like it would've happened anyway...)
-
Reconstruction from my previous band results in the following (adjective) metal band:
Gabriel's Path (http://www.myspace.com/gabrielspath)
No, we are not a Christian band.
-
I want to form a band with my brother called Otaku but he won't listen to me.
-
Halo of Flies
When I read that, I thought "hey, isn't there already a band called that?" And then I realized, alas, there was.
Gabriel's Path (http://www.myspace.com/gabrielspath)
Shit, dude. You play in Gabriel's Path? You guys are good.
And for the record, yes, I've played in two bands so far: the now-defunct Vincent Price (http://www.purevolume.com/vincentprice) and a new band, which is unnamed and has no recorded output.
-
Yeah, I know there's already a band called that. I only found out about nine months after I started the project though, so screw 'em. I think they're split up now anyway.
-
I'm in *sigh* trip to and The orgasmic hello's(who need a new name) and Slow motion nazi death! woot
-
I'm in an old school hardcoreband called Hockey Temper and some other silly projects which yet are to be named. And practiced with. :)
-
@Khar: Everyone knows locusts are more krieg than flies anyway. ^_____^
-
Why this name?
Halo of Flies is a powerful meme common in western music. To me, the image it evokes is powerful, dark and anti-christian, a statement of the utter, ruling power of death in human affairs.
:p
Not to mention HoF is really un-krieg. Listen to Nostalgia. It tinkles!
-
I am strangely obsessed with the effects of locusts on things in general. In fact, to celebrate this, I changed the witty part of my MSN name to "whatever, as long as locusts are involved"!
-
What, the italic bit?
Mine is currently 'Hail the Necrowizard!'. Before that it was '...and I am a Ninja Terminator'.
-
Well, I use Trillian which doesn't allow you to actually use the italic bit, so I just put it after my regular screenname.
-
Fewl! You don't need trillian. Our scientists have proved that all the other IM networks and everyone on them are utterly worthless!
-
Tell that to all the crazy people I speak to on a regular basis.
-
Shit, dude. You play in Gabriel's Path? You guys are good.
Hey, thanks! =D
-
I'm in a fledgling punk band called The November Criminals. Well, I say band. It's more about drinking than music. We have the grand total of two songs, which is, conincidentally, the same number of chords I can play. One of them is about Robocop. If it was ever to be recorded, or even played in public, the whole of society would fall apart at the seems. It's genuinely the worst song ever written. In our defence, we're not really taking it seriously. I sort of wish I hadn't written this now. Meh.
-
i used to play bass in beaumont hamel until we broke up a month ago:

and i play sludgy, sludgy bass in werewolf:

Crusty Tissue Overdrive.
Same here, but my band name would be...
Bats With Bazookas
Mabe I'll just start recording my own songs. I can finesse my instruments, fo sho.
-
i'm in a band called orange moose, but we only have one song so far which has no lyrics, because we don't have a singer. and we suck.
-
OB/Gyn Kenobi has been renamed Internationally Acclaimed. Same members, same music, but a newer, better name.
-
My band is called Bananafish (20 bonus points if you get the reference) and we currently have no drummer because she moved to Iowa. My best friend plays guitar, I sing and will probably end up playing bass as well.
We really suck.
-
Internationally Acclaimed consists of the following 4 members:
Wes - Bass, keyboards, rand. percussion
Richard - Guitars, bass
Lukas - Guitars, rand. percussion
Patrick (me, w00t) - Drums, guitars, mandolin, bass, rand. percussion
Sucks though 'cause the other 3 live in CA and I live in Luxembourg right now. But the internet is awesome 'cause I record tons of guitar tracks using GoldWave, and then I send them to Wes so he can add bass and keyboards.
We rawk sortof.

Are you talking about bananafish magazine? Did your drummer go to Iowa City? perhaps she's in a band here.
-
I am talking about the zine called Bananafish from the book Hard Love. And she moved to Des Moines. When I found out I demanded that she get ahold of her cousin who is pretty much best friends with SlipKnot and make her get an autograph and mail it to me...
-
I wish I'd started a band when I was younger. My best friend and I talked about it a few times, but never actually followed through with it.
-
I have a sort of, half-band going at the moment. It's me, guitar and vocals, my friend on guitar and vocals, and a drummer. We've yet to find a bassist amongst our friends that wants to play anything but speed-metal, so it's ever-so-slightly frustrating.
We're slightly reminiscent of the Yeah Yeah Yeahs/Deerhoof/Death From Above 1979; it's an interesting mish-mash of genres. Sometimes we go a bit surrealist and just make 10 minute tracks of us improvising each other's faces off. It's good fun. One day, we'll manage to get into a recording studio.
We're stuck for names, but at the moment, it's Day of the Dead, because I like Mexican folklore.
-
We changed our name to The Midnight Club.
-
Wouldn't it be awesome if Jimmy Page was a QC forum member? He could be like, "Well, I used to be the guitarist for this one band until our drummer died. Led Zeppelin, does that ring a bell?"
-
Imagine if you took Led Zeppelin and replaced Robert Plant with a tiny Japanese lady.
Enough said.
-
Imagine if you took Led Zeppelin but replaced everyone except Robert Plant with little Japanese ladies.
That's what I'm looking for.
-
These thoughts both scare me and make me cringe. Either thought is badbadbad. If Yoko Ono were to replace Plant I'd probably kill myself. If I didn't do myself in, the 'singing' would do it for me. And NOBODY, in Japan or elsewhere, can play each of the individual instruments the way those 3 boys did.
Yes, I am very protective of my Zeppelin. ^__^
-
I'm in a band, we're called Comavision. We have a song up on our Myspace profile, but it's terrible quality unfortunately.
Here 'tis anyways: http://www.myspace.com/comavision
Edit: Holy shit what's up with my avatar? I thought there was a 100x100 pixel limit?
Edit#2: I changed it, if anyone noticed. Sorry it was so ridiculously big before.
-
I would love to have a band, but no one around here is cool enough to be in my band. Plus no one can play anything... that isn't already in a band. Bastids...
-

...you live in Louisiana, don't you? Just pick up Fats Domino.

Seconded. This is great working music. Where do you guys play? Where can I get a CD? What does your vocalist's voice sound like after a gig?
-
Me and my friend have a band called "Jonas å Rasmus hade Tråkigt", wich translates into "Jonas and Rasmus were Bored". We do our songs in Reason, wich totally kicks ass.
-
"I was in a band once... yeah... I seen it all. I once drove a car into a hotel room... had sex with two girls at the same time... ate an entire horse..."
Captain Ed is that you?
No that's not it at all. Picture this: 1967, I'm onstage at the Filmore East. Jimi Hendrix is backstage, throwing up. Mama Cass is stewing up a pot of her famous spaghetti pie. Janis Joplin is washing dishes and throwing up. And then the cops bust in. ... My guitar's on fire, I'd been up all night shooting cheese balls -that's cocaine and cheese....

Throwing up because of the spaghetti pie?

Fats Domino? Mmkay... Don't know much about him...
-
Fats Domino. As in "Fuck Jerry Lee Lewis, I'm listening to some bad ass piano rock and roll from" Fats Domino.
-
Ah. Muchos Gracias. I shall look into it/him.
-
Or you could just talk to Bo Diddley at the Alameda County Fair and have him play guitar for you. I got my first guitar signed by him at that fair when he came and did a show. He sat down for most of the gig, which is kindof sad, but the guy's in his mid to late 70s. And he was really cool.
AND HE HAS HELLOF COOL EFFECTS ON HIS GUITAR.
-
Fats Domino. As in "Fuck Jerry Lee Lewis, I'm listening to some bad ass piano rock and roll from" Fats Domino.
i heard that he was one of the unaccounted for right after Katrina passed through. i haven't heard anything since. :(
-
Fats is doing just fine, he's been found alive and he's doing quite well.

I guess you'd have had to see the Tenatious D Tv show... That's Captain Ed's Rock and Roll story.
So anyway Yea I'm in a band (http://www.myspace.com/downfallroad) too. We're five guys who like classic metal, nu-metal, industrial, grunge... and we play acoustic rock. Go figure. Think "Touch, Peel, Stand" by Days of the New or The Alice in Chains unplugged album I guess. That's the sound we're working towards. There some old songs up on MySpace, there might be more at the main website (http://www.downfallroad.com) too if anyone wanted to take a listen.
Rock On!

-
And nobody's gettin' fat 'cept Mama Cass.
What a pudgemeisterin.
-
I'm in a band named "Battle Cake". It's interesting. We lack a drummer but make up for it with our amazing bassist.
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v121/Alex-H/my%20pics/90781f13.jpg
I am the guitarist in the back with the curly hair and a button on my crotch. (how the heck did that get there?!?!?!)
-
Your singer is hot.
-
Your singer is hot.
I second that
-
Yeah, she really is. She doesn't think she is but I keep telling her she is crazy. That was interesting because that was our first gig and our singer was out. She looked at the lyrics 5 minutes before we went on and as you can probably see the laptop, those were the lyrics. It was pretty amazing especially since we never actually played the song the whole way through until we were up there.
-
I HATE it when chicks do that, dude. They're like ROFL IM UGGX0RZ and you're like STFU N00B and she's like NO IM FUGGZ LOLOL and you're just like *headdesk*
But yeah, that's hella sweet. I'd love to listen to some of your stuff, if possible.
-
Yeah, she is really sweet and I think she honestly thinks this which is sad. Because as we can all see she is hot. In fact I am showing her this site as proof.
-
HEY SINGER CHICK YOU COMING TO LUXEMBOURG ANY TIME SOON?
-
Imagine if you took Led Zeppelin and replaced Robert Plant with a tiny Japanese lady.
Enough said.
DEERHOOF?
