Fast Caz Posted June 6, 2005 Report Share Posted June 6, 2005 This is music related ........ well apparentlyanyhooThe Exile Studios website is not working so could someone help me and tell me what they have in the room(s) and what a drummer would need to take with them i.e snare,stool,yak yak yakif someone could help that would be handyCheersCannibal Carruthersall in the name of gore baby Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuart Posted June 6, 2005 Report Share Posted June 6, 2005 Its just one big room. I'd bring cymbols (if I played drums) and maybe a snare, but that just because our drummer uses her own. Everything else is there I think.Sorry if thats useless, not a drummer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Milner Posted June 6, 2005 Report Share Posted June 6, 2005 well we have worked with mark for several months now and i can safely say that he is by far one of the best we have worked with so far in Aberdeen.He hasnt let us down really since we have recorded/practised with him since november. I feel that mark gets a very bad reputation but believe me work with him and he is very good. So much so we decided not to go to the mill to record and instead have done our cd with him.As for practising i would take a snare and cymbols with you and since brian fudge is the person who lets in the bands i would find it hard that mark wouldnt turn up you bunch of fucking chuffties.

annie Posted June 6, 2005 Report Share Posted June 6, 2005 i was told he let you down only if the thought your music was shit.i thought this was a real nice way of letting you down gently.i think the place has a nice feel to it.i suggest your drummer brings sticks.

The Ghost Of Fudge Posted June 7, 2005 Report Share Posted June 7, 2005 Jus a word of warning Cal... he'll probably take the booking but Mark actually turning up for you is a totally different matter... he's let us dwn on many an occasion! Hope all is well dude!ahh, he's let deadloss down plenty times too - it's just part of his 'loose-cannon' charisma but as i'm currently letting in the bands at exile, i can categorically say you won't have any problems getting into the building. unless the keys get locked inside, but that's only happened once so far.i'll be there bang on time. which is more than can be said for the frigging bands, who normally turn up 20 minutes late and then say they "forgot to go to the bank" when they're finally done destroying music in the name of rock'n'roll.

Bassdemon Posted June 7, 2005 Report Share Posted June 7, 2005 So it was the mighty Brian Fudge i spoke to, I thought the voice sounded familiar. This will be a good opportunity to badger him for a gig and thank him for getting the other band to change their time of cour(s)e......

The Ghost Of Fudge Posted June 7, 2005 Report Share Posted June 7, 2005 ... of course Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biz Posted June 7, 2005 Report Share Posted June 7, 2005 reliably unreliableMark is a fucking arsehole for letting people down ALL THE TIME but Brian is his opposite so you can depend on booking and getting in to rehearse at Xile now.Apart from his arsehole tendencies Mark is a good producer at times and funny as fuck to hang out with...if the cunt ever turns up.!

The Milner Posted June 7, 2005 Report Share Posted June 7, 2005 ive always found that booking early morning practises makes brian appreciate you more i feel so much more loved seeing him at 10am grasping onto the glorys of morning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Ghost Of Fudge Posted June 7, 2005 Report Share Posted June 7, 2005 milner, you cunt i'll state here and now that i prefer evening bookings.... oh yes.mark as a reliable chap - slightly poor. mark as a promoter - quite good. mark as a producer - very very good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fast Caz Posted June 8, 2005 Author Report Share Posted June 8, 2005 but do you have a snare on the kit ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Ghost Of Fudge Posted June 8, 2005 Report Share Posted June 8, 2005 yes. it's alright.the cymbals are a bit shit though. but it's cheap, so who cares? they make a *tssssh* noise, and isn't that all you need? take a kettle plug too. one of marks got pinched.
