UNITED FRONT MUSIC

I think maybe that's said because semi- to full-professional bands are under a lot of pressure, and that tension can cause friendships to break up. Much like how if you date someone whom you've been good friends with and then break up, your friendship will likely never be the same.

Then again, I've never been in a band. Assign to my opinion the proper amount of shits.

There's nothing wrong with being in a band with your friends, just so long as everyone in the band realises that as far as the band is concerned, you are 'business partners' first, 'creative partners' second and 'friends' last.

Don't dip your singer's microphone in piss. This is something UG has taught me.

DO take every opportunity to play practical jokes upon the drummer, this is traditional and traditions are important.

by jazz ears i mean tuning your ears to listen to everything individually. you cant listen to all musci like that, otherwise yourl shoot yourself out of boredom. btbam lets me listen to any one instrument and be satisfied. i rarely listen to the whole band at once. but when i listen to lets say rhcp i listen to the whole band, unless im hooked on frusciantes guitar. i cant listen to chad smiths drumming and nothing else, or anthony's vocals alone. but with jazz and good prog metal i can just listen to blake richardson drumming and nothing else all colors long and be satisfied. its not that the musicians are any better its the way its written. or maybe im weird. when i listen to jazz i separate all the instruments in my head. when i lsiten to pop or rock i combine them all. i would get bored listening to coheeds vocals or drumming or bass alone.

The way I see it it's: "Don't let a good friend who just isn't really a good musician join your band".

Have fun.
Sounds kinda gay, but being in a band which you aren't enjoying sucks the big ones. Even if you don't really like the music, if you're having a good time then it's all good.

Why? BTBAM suck dicks for free, and I'd rather have CC everyday than that boring pseudo prog modern metalcore garbage.

Write music not breakdowns. I mean if you want to throw a breakdown in there somewhere then fine but your music shouldn't be 100% breakdown. You gotta try a little harder than that.

Let me expand upon this
-One breakdown per hundred songs you write
-One
-1 ****ing breakdown in all of your songs
-that's it
-Breakdowns are annoying
-You know what? no breakdowns, for any song, for any band, ever
-No Breakdowns
-Ever
-That is all
