General Music Chat

Hello everybody. Im the new guy to the site and i just wanted to let myself be known. Ive been singing/songwriting for about 6 years now but nothing really major, so im basically here to learn from everyone elses experiences.

Welcome to the forums! You may find some of the membership to be rather critical, but there are lot of good lessons to be learned here, and not all of them are about music either. Hope you enjoy your stay =]

GOOD START WOULD BE TO PUT SOME MUSIC UP TOMMORROW. I'VE BEEN WRITING BAD SONGS FOR A LONG TIME. NEED HELP , I CAN SCREW YOURS UP TOO.

lol thanks repress, ill look in on some conversations and hopefully ill learn alot, and wow giongi. Im not sure i want my songs screwed up, but ill make sure to post some.

welcome & good luck.

Yeah, put up some examples of your work. It'll attract ppl who hear what you do, if they're into it.

You might wanna fill out your profile a bit more, too. What instrument set-up do you prefer? (You simply mentioned you were seeking a "band.")How much & what kinds of experience do you have? Do you sight-read or play any instrument at any level of accomplishment? As a songwriter, how do you communicate your needs to the musicians? Perhaps a snippet of lyrics? Knowledge of theory? Stuff like that...it's pretty bare. Be honest if you're just starting out, but upbeat about your drive to sing/perform. Do you have a mic or a PA? That always shows a certain amount of commitment, so if you do it'll no doubt help in your search, & you should mention it. There's a lot more that ppl could know about you just from your profile that will make you stand out to them.

Not to be critical or anything...

I need MUSIC ...RIGHT NOW !!!!!! IF its not on my desk by tomorrow morning,Iwill have to fire all of you.
All of you keep asking for billion dollar paychecks, and when all I need is one good song..... Well ,,,,,,,,,,you have to let me hear it before I put every thing I own one the line.

IS THIS CLEAR? .......Good , now some one please bring me a cup of coffee.

Sounds like you've already had too much coffee. Unless it's to take the "edge" off of the CRACK COCAINE.

I think that has been proved to be an impossibility. At least at my house.

Warm Welcomes All For Naught.

Welcome, All For Naught.

I think you ought to consider giongi2's point about posting something with your singing. Even if the quality isn't the best, it's good to have something up there...

thanks for all the suggestions. im gonna update the information on my page and try and find a bit of my singing to put on my page. Do you think acapella is alright to post?

That's fine. Anything to let ppl hear your abilities & tones will work.

Good luck.

Sure, man.

Acapella rocks!! It takes talent to sing without music and stay on key through the entire song. It's hard for me anyway...

Anyway, welcome! Lots of great resources here with the membership. Feel free to ask anything and give answers to anything.

nah would'nt touch the stuff. that's for guitarists that want grow beards.
