coren Posted December 15, 2001 Share Posted December 15, 2001 hmmm i was just wondering if anyone else noticed that almost all the users here are multi-instrumantilist genius's hooked up on 6 pots of coffee that enjoy all types of music and seek to grow as musicians rather than bowing down to the almightly dollar while hooking up a new piece of gear into the mother brain command center sitting in their house.. i think its a conspiracy has anyone else noticed some similaritys between users here?

Well, you know how it is with some people. 1st thing in the morning: coffee & cigarette, then a shower and breakfast: more c&c, off to work: check the mail and have another cup, then it's time for a smoking break, next: some more work and time for lunch: cigarette + food + some more c&c, back to work time for a c&c break round 3pm, leave work meet some friends at a café, back home: dinner + C&C, evening: c&c, and another cup before sleep. So, how many cups a day? 9 perhaps? wouldn't surprise me, she gets very nervous when we are out of coffee. Cigarette consumption is probably a little more than a pack/day. Myself? - I never smoke anything and have no problem to keep my java habit down to about 5-8 cups/week. Sometimes a couple of days without coffee goes by without even noticing it. However, I have other (unhealthy) habits, the sum of a persons addictions is often constant. /Mats http://www.lexam.net/peter/carnut/man.gif What do we want? Procrastination! When do we want it?

"my way is the best way and im gonna have fun and be artistic while doing it.." while 1 and 4 mix together as more of a "guitarist" personality... laidback, just chilling, having fun, playing some guitar... i think i got all 4 in me though, depending on the musical project, band work is 1&4, solo work is 2&3, studio is 1&2&3... hey chris, XAR is person, not a place yea im a canuck, im in BC and my real name is mike, but my REAL name is solcham reinback the 3rd, A.K.A. the norwiegan pirate actually coren and xar are from a book (death gate cycle, by margeret wies and tracy hickman) brownies and pepsi.. in the morning? my morning routine is bland, i dont eat till 4 in the afternoon (when i get home) adding to the potic, i mean topic, for jobs.. am i right in thinking that most of us are either in computers/technology or in an often not thought of job? do you: -have friends that think its odd when you refer to volume as SPL? -and the knob as an attenuator? -your family thinks your odd cause when you flipped through the channels of the tv for once, you saw music awards, and started laughing when you saw dr.dre and eminem signing to a bass line that did 4 notes for 5 minutes? (jmho) -do you drum with your hands uncontrollably when bored? -have a cd collection numbering in the hundreds? -think the above is normal?

Roto Posted December 18, 2001 Share Posted December 18, 2001 I don't drink coffee, and I barely can play one instrument and it's not even keyboards(still waiting to buy one).

surfjazz Posted December 18, 2001 Share Posted December 18, 2001 as i sit here on my third pot of coffee, playing my gibson les paul, writing the score for speilburgs next film, mixing down a track for santana, and programming my korg karma... i contemplate the lyrics that float by my head (from P.O.D's Satellite) "its a masterpiece conspiracy!" and quietly chuckle to myself: "those fools!"

Roto Posted December 18, 2001 Share Posted December 18, 2001 Well at least you have your folks' I decided I wanted to try to learn piano I came to this forum to find out what to buy and ended up getting an Alesis DG8. WHICH I'm sure would've been great if it had survived shipping, but alas I had to go shopping again. Now I'm waiting for the Yamaha P120 to become available and hope I don't buy an aquarium that would use up the rest of my remaining space in my apartment.

Seriously though, drinking coffee is a lot like drinking beer.(GO AHEAD HIT ME...I HEAR THE JOKES ALREADY!) Quality beats quanity. Go to a Starbucks, or something similar, try out some different coffee's and you'll proably find something you like. Quality makes all difference. Kind of like music isn't it?

HolyTerra Posted December 19, 2001 Share Posted December 19, 2001 I don't really play an instrument. I just perpetrate. I lay down something funky with my right hand into a sequencer, come back, and lay down something else funky into the sequencer, come back and lay something else funky . . . well, you get the picture. And I don't drink coffee. I'm primarily a melphleg. But I have sanguine tendencies as well. I just like to learn from all you fellas and fellettes out here.

HolyTerra Posted December 20, 2001 Share Posted December 20, 2001 Dave, A melphleg is primarily a melancholic, secondarily a phlegmatic. That's what I used to be, at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
