I'm on course to producing a band that despairs at it's own existence.

What's happening?

Big P on baish BigCat on sex appeal c'mon let's get this pawtee stawted!

Can you call me a cab?

The revolution will not be televised on STV clearly.

bugger.

I just wanted to see if any one in this town knew the term. Anyone?

look if you just want a Get Carter on someone's farter just say so.

If you're not under 25 or over 40 then you're fucked.

Pretentious? moi?

How original.

I apologise to the covers community.

An original band is where a group of similarly distalented individuals collate to produce material surprising and unexpected from the viewpoint of each member individually. It is the antithesis of the covers band format that alcohol purveyors prefer as it demands a level of consciousness seldom achieved by the weekend binge drinker. One would think that a town so geographically, economically and intellectually marooned as this one would be unresponsive to just such an endeavour. One would be correct. Against common sense however this town has a well of talent in this regard if only it could be harnessed and given air between the relentless grind of offshore work/golf/my mates just got a good engineer position/Westhill/2 cars in the driveway/Tesco/that's the way the world is/I don't know to be quite honest - attitude.

Good vocalist for that band ByHookorByKrook but it's the dominance of covers bands that gives Aberdeen the "cultural wasteland" tag from Stewart Lee. Painfully, but rightly.

I see no way forward for this band unless we can combine SARCASM/ORGASM into the band name. And Jesus. This is a university town after all.

I'm really not used to reading positive things on the internet.

Put my heart and soul into this band. It's supposed to be about spreading love you fucking pricks.

Is this serious or did you just get some weed off your sister's "cool" boyfriend?

Bassists are so rare they can demand specific tunings? We do not negotiate with bassists.

Do you cover Exhumer, Diabolicunt or Fingered Mom?

So Mr Smurf, we've put your details through the school's computer system. Have you thought about a career in screaming?

PM'd you about band. Failing that, I will require vocal, bass, piano, guitar and drum tuition all at the same time.

I could play bass for you! I could exaggerate your venereal skills to girls.

Let uslook at this logically. 99.99% of bands fail. 99.99% of bands adhere to an INDUSTRY STANDARD of race/age/competence. So what you're asking is "Fancy taking on an endeavour that fails only 99.99% of the time?" I'm over 24 btw.

I play bass..but I know a saxayer w plho plays sa (rum n coke) Ahem...I play bass, but I know a sax player who plays the sax better than I play bass.
