General Music Chat

thank-you, for your interest ___ I just checked my email, on yahoo, and there it was..it was sent Nov. 6th and today is the 10th.. what do you guys/gals know about these? it seems legitimate, do I have to have high speed internet to comply? it is just a preliminary, and although I would be interested, Eldon, Mo. is quite a drive

maybe I am having delusions of grandeur, but rejecting a opportunity like this might keep me in the poor-house the rest of my born days.just wondering.. if these people are Def Leppard quality?

if you make the cut (if THEY make the cut) and you make the drive....we'll have to get together. Eldon is just 30 min down da road from me.

i'd make sure ya don't have to go the makeup route like the gal who posted the thread!

I have been scraping by jimmydanger the last 9 yrs. and 3 mos. peddling on ebay and other venues, before that I peddled part-time at swap meets while doing a 40 hr. workweek for the "man" at comparable wages for this area in that type of work, when I moved to Orlando, Fl. in 1986 I was fortunate enough to have a friend of my parents who was the comptroller at Ryder System get me a job with Ryder, I worked at Ryder in Orlando, the Raleigh, N.C. and finally Springfield, Mo. all the while working generally strange shifts that did not allow for playing gigs for the most part, occasionally it would click, but then them holding a carrot on a stick(pay incentive) I would b right back on a strange hours shift .. the thing is jimmy, I last year got my retirement fund which is sizable but have done good enough peddling the last 9 yrs. and 3 mos. to not have to tap into it yet.. I have NEVER been in debt, I am a true bohemian and lived a bohemian lifestyle, which is basically having no use for money to buy "things" other than sustenance and a roof over my head, permanent relationships are outdated, don't care enough I've grown luke warm... like Elton John said, "If you choose to you can live your life alone
Some people choose the city (some people the city)
Some others a good old family home,I like living easy without family ties
Till the whippoorwill of freedom zapped me
Right between the eyes
"… (Philadelphia Freedom" the point is, I am NOT conventional like most Americans, I have never found myself wanting to acquire the next best biggest brightest thing on the market.. perfectly content with nothing, a flaw unless you live in Greenwich Village, North Beach, Austin, etc.

if you make the cut (if THEY make the cut) and you make the drive....we'll have to get together. Eldon is just 30 min down da road from me.

oh, now I remember, there was a BM member with a painted face avatar on here recently.. yes..maybe I should move up there and rent a chateau on the Lake?

peddling on ebay since July,15, 2003 so that is over 12 years, the 9 yrs. 3 mos. figure was peddling on ebay as a FULL-TIME TOP RATED POWER SELLER, although the last several months I have just about gone straight swap-meet on Sundays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays cause ebay has killed themselves off with stupid policies and greedy tactics.., once again greed does it every god- ___ time.. when will you all learn .. greed kills

jimmydanger, without people like you, and HALEY and GLENNY with that sort of mindset, the nation would fall into ruin.. that is the world system and it is vital to keep the world evolutionizing.. jesus said you can not be of the world and be a follower of him, since the two systems are at odds with each other, but just wanted you and HALEY and GLENNY to know I do not mooch off the government, and never have, and never will.. possibly the only mooching I do could be I seem to never make enough money for the Feds to get money off of me to waste on weapons systems..we get a Ryan or a Rubio and they will change that, but I can draw soc. security in around 2 years, I am almost 60 years old.. so agin I will out-fox them.. they can't get taxes form a soc. sec. drawee..LOL

As far as I can tell, the BM "digital audition" isn't anything at all, except an invite from someone to try out with them. Send a message back if you're interested (or say 'no thanks' if you're not).

GuitarMikeB, I was a little skeptical because I am not a Premier BandMix member, so was wondering why they would send a message to me when they won't allow me to communicate because I'm not premier level member..

Pertinent information in this thread;

You are a top notch FleaBay seller.

You are a true "Bohemian"

Paul Ryan will destroy the universe.

Anything about the member with the invite for a digital audition? No.

yeah, probably dumb of me to have started this thread, now, the hackers will be shooting for me, cause now they know I am a millionaire, , super- peddler, a bohemian, although GLENNY would possibly disagree? and the real reason was to make sure the email with a BandMix logo and official BandMix script and banner was not a phishing attempt to drop some malware on me if I opened it.. never did open it, but contacted them and told them it was basically too far a drive, especially after learning it was not a complete band needing that one key player to get gigs with, .. it is in a building process it seems.. plus, I would need to paint my face

I've received a couple. Just got one from a guy looking to start a Duran Duran tribute band. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE D2. I just can't play on that level, can't join a band at this time, and I did say "no cover/ tribute bands, please" in my profile.
