I would know no math whatsoever. I'd be
asking for help like every 3 seconds...
"I don't... *wink* get it. *licks
lips*"

So how come every time you two are in a forum
you always manage to get the discussion onto
the subject of SEX!!!
I am beginning to think you two are sex
maniacs, but I guess if you must be obsessed
about something, sex is a good way to go
since it fits in so well with the whole
"Sex, Drugs, and Rock & Roll"
religion of true music lovers!!! | GrayBeard |
So Becca, you email with these guys, right?
So ask them WTF is up with someone wanting to
quit a band on the way up to be a MATH
TEACHER!!
That just sounds lame. How do you go from a
life of sex, drugs and Rock & Roll to being a
school teacher?
What happen, did he find Jesus or something?
No, that couldn't be it, cause Jesus used
to run around with a bunch of strange guys
and travel from town to town putting on
shows, and that is a lot closer to being in a
psychobilly band than being a school
teacher!!!
So what happened? Did he fall off the stage
and hit his head?
And how come the rest of the guys just
don't keep the band together and keep
going? Or was the guy who wants to be the
teacher the lead singer and song writer for
the band and without him there is no band???
This just sounds bogus somehow. | GrayBeard |
So Becca, did they say why the dude wanted to
break up the band to be a *choke* math
teacher? | GrayBeard |
I just can't picture a super rad
psychobilly performer suddenly walking around
a high school in a white shirt with a pencil
protector in his pocket and a calculator
strapped to his belt!! | GrayBeard |
the guys from 12SxRx explain it all on their
message board here:
http://rebelrock.proboards1.com/index.cgi#ban
d
just go to 12 Step Rebel News and then
"12SxRx calls and 'indefinite
break'"
i just read some of the threat that i havnt
been keeping up on, and from what Nate is
saying, things are looking up for the future
of 12 Step...
by the way, my name is 'in my eyes' on
that board if anyone is interested. | shadowbug26 |
Becca, I used ur link, set up an account and
read the thread about 12 Step Rebels
indefinitely breaking up.
STICK THIS BAND WITH A FORK - THEY ARE
DONE!!!!
These guys are finished. Trust me. I have
been there, done that. The way they are
talking, no matter how positively they are
try to spin it, they are finished with any
kind of large scale professional music.
Yeah, maybe the Nate and the Jacob guy will
do a little something on the side as a
"hobby", but not much else.
Face it, who the hell would move to
Pittsburgh or Philly to stay in music!?!?!?
I know, I lived in Pittsburgh!! Moving there
and expecting a music venture is like moving
to Alaska and expecting a great tan!!
In my take of the messages posted there, only
Chad is serious about music any longer. The
other two dudes are basically giving up. You
can tell in his posts that he was bushwacked
by the whole breakup.
This same crap happened to my last
professional band. One day all was well, the
next day GONE!!! All the other guys gave it
up, ironically for college (grad school) and
careers, just like Nate and Jacob.
And there I was, just like Chad, standing
there saying "WTF!!!"
Reading those posts about the breakup brought
up such sucky memories I literally feel like
barfing!!!
Maybe Chad has the balls to go on. He sounds
like he does. IF so, I will be a fan for
sure.
The other two, all I can say is they have NO
IDEA how much they will regret this decision
in twenty years!!! | GrayBeard |
or maybe they'll be thankful for this
decision? i mean, maybe they really didnt
want the rock star life?
as for chad, he can play the drums for my non
existant band :-) | shadowbug26 |
It would be my guess that it's all about
money with them. They are just tired of not
having any and the "straight"
life of a career and a steady, good paycheck
sound oh so delicious to them right now.
Twenty years from now they will look back and
see just how damn close they actually came to
living their dream. Then they will compare
it to what they have accomplished in their
careers.
If they don't regret the breakup of 12
Step Rebels, then you are right Becca, they
just were not cut out for making music.
But if it was their dream, and they gave up
on it, no matter how successful they become
in their straight careers, they will never
come to grips with this decision.
Now, about Chad playing drums in your band.
Why not? Why don't you ask him?
I know, you are thinking "What, is
randy insane? Me ask Chad to get in a band
together? That could never happen!"
Yes it could. Make your wish, blow out the
candle, then eat the cake!!!
Make your own reality!!!
A great man once said "Ask and you
will receive" | GrayBeard |
haha, one problem..i dont want a band. i have
horrible stage fright :-( and the only
instrument i play is the viola..and i hate
it. so...yeah...
i dont think nate and jakob were just in it
for the money...and even if they were, dont
say that around me. it makes me sad :-( | shadowbug26 |
No Becca, Jakob & Nate did not do music for
the money, they LEFT music for the money -
the security of a steady, good paycheck.
I've seen it a bunch of times in my bands.
It is just too tempting to take a good day
job with a good steady paycheck rather than
struggle and starve for music.
Especially if there is a family with children
involved, as is the case with them. They are
thinking about the responsibility of
providing for a family I would imagine. You
know, responsibility and all that.
No, I do NOT think they were into music for
money. They were in music for music.
However, they most certainly left music for
money. | GrayBeard |
Becca, EVERYONE wants a band, just most never
do it. They talk themselves out of it.
Stage fright? I was a frontman for a rock
band and I could not remember a SINGLE
lyric!!! NADA!!
I could not memorize a single song until we
started playing it - then the lines came to
me one at a time!!! I was alway scared to
death that one day the lines would not pop
into my head and I would just be standing
there not remembering what to sing while
everyone was watching me!!!!
You would only have stage fright momentarily.
Once you got going it would all be fine.
And the Viola is GREAT TRAINING, expecially
if you wanted to be a psychobitch, say like
Patricia Day, cause you could learn to play
the upright bass in like two days since you
know the fundamentals of a string
instrument!!!
Just think of the Viola as a
"little" upright bass!!!
Hey, and I hear Chad is looking for a singer
and an upright bass player!!!!
Seriously Becca. You love music. Jump in.
You will NEVER regret it. And you can do it
with your tatoo career as well. | GrayBeard |
Here is what everyone needs to do: go
download Allanis Morrisette's song
"You Learn" from her
"Jagged Little Pill" album and
listen to it hard.
Don't hold back from anything. You live,
you learn. Be afraid of nothing. There is
no failure, just learning. | GrayBeard |
my stage fright is more like, i hate being
the center of attention. i hate people all
staring at me. i just dont get that rush out
of it like some people do.
and the viola has different strings than a
bass. so it is rather different..and a whole
different cleff. and as i said, i HATE
playing the viola. hate hate hate it. but
ive got friends in my orchestra, and its an
easy A...so yeah...
and i can respect jakob and nate leaving the
band so they can give their kids a reliable
source of money. | shadowbug26 |
Yeah I know about the viola & bass
differences, I played violin. But the clef
differences are nothing really, just imagine
a shift of the lines, that's all.
Probably one day Jakob and Nate will be
saying to their kids during some argument
"I gave up being a rock star for
you". And their kids will shoot back
with something like "I didn't ask
you to do that!".
But I guess it doesn't really matter what
is up with them quiting the band. The bottom
line is they quit.
Now I am thinking it is best to focus on Chad
getting something going, and give him the fan
support for his efforts. He is the one who
is still at it and is therefore the most
dedicated musician of the band. | GrayBeard |
Hey, how about this for a plan: You email
with Chad, right? So eamail him and get a
the info on his background and what's up
with his new band and we can write up a bio
and related artists and stuff like that and
get him up on iSound!!
Then he can keep us postd with his band's
progress, and get his fans over to iSound to
check out his site, and then they will get
interested in the other psychobilly stuff
here and will help out the whole genre!!
What do you think? It would be fun helping
him get a foothold here!! | GrayBeard |
Hello, u still read the 12 Step Rebels forum
Becca? | GrayBeard |
um, yeah..i havnt emailed him in a
while...but maybe | shadowbug26 |
Great, let us know what he says. He probably
has some kind of short bio already he could
email you, and you know the related bands,
and he could give you a list of the guys in
his new band if it is all together already.
And with that info he is on iSound!! What
the heck, it can't hurt!! | GrayBeard |
