 | re: Who are the musicians of the board? Lets make a list - SpyBoy on 5/8/13 at 12:02 am Mainly bass and guitar, and vocals. Serviceable on keys and drums.
Getting a lot better on upright lately.
It's been slow going lately with playing but I'm starting a countryish band just to start playing again. I've posted stuff I wrote here once before with my band the honeysuckles. ...

The best thing is the alarm, which wakes you up around the time you set and waits for when you are in light sleep. Plus a small vibration on your wrist is a much bet...

Good god. This is exactly it. Who cares how we define these things because everybody's got their own definition anyway. I will reiterate "informed by conservative ideals" as the takeaway characteristic of this board. That allows for all your defining a...
