Well, Aquaman's usual costume is better than Namor's green underwear, but if Namor was wearing the newer duds as below, I'd go with him since he has ankle wings and that's hard to beat.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑20 Feb 2018, 3:28pmAquaman happy or Sub-mariner happy?Kory wrote: ↑20 Feb 2018, 3:22pmBelieve me, if I could just get the gills right, I could die happy.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑20 Feb 2018, 3:19pmI expect to grow gills and wings after just one listen, and then one new superpower mutation every five listens thereafter.

Namor also thinks land-people are fucksticks and it's hard to refute that.Kory wrote: ↑20 Feb 2018, 3:36pmWell, Aquaman's usual costume is better than Namor's green underwear, but if Namor was wearing the newer duds as below, I'd go with him since he has ankle wings and that's hard to beat.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑20 Feb 2018, 3:28pmAquaman happy or Sub-mariner happy?Kory wrote: ↑20 Feb 2018, 3:22pmBelieve me, if I could just get the gills right, I could die happy.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑20 Feb 2018, 3:19pmI expect to grow gills and wings after just one listen, and then one new superpower mutation every five listens thereafter.

I support your decision. They look a little too precious.

Re: Need advice quick
I'd do it. Playing most music is pretty fun regardless of if the music is all that good. Plus getting exposure is always a plus. You might be able to steer the band as well, not unlike Topper.
Look, you have to establish context for these things. And I maintain that unless you appreciate the Fall of Constantinople, the Great Fire of London, and Mickey Mantle's fatalist alcoholism, live Freddy makes no sense. If you want to half-ass it, fine, go call Simon Schama to do the appendix.

Is this the "It's not your fault" moment every Brooose lifer inevitably goes through after about 10 shows too many?

Re: Need advice quick
It can be, but what if it takes up all your time, when you have other music to be doing as well?

Re: Need advice quick
I'm with Matey here. A lot depends on what you're doing to pay the rent: if you like or don't mind it, even if it's deathly dull, or if it literally is breaking your back (my sad story since I was 15). Emphasize the "play" in playing music. And if you're dead serious about actually making a living playing music, even if it's not your fave or even like it much, consider alternatives work-wise. Maybe it's not so bad, say, working in a cubicle on a computer or whatever peeps do to pay the rent these days. I wouldn't know. But I do know that in 35 years of playing in bands, 90% of them were original bands with a focus on music I liked/loved. No money, of course, cuz all us peeps were not serious/fuck ups/bad luck, whatever. So it's really a series of highly personal decisions you've got to make re: how you want to travel through life, man. Your music, the real work - YOU wil have to make time for and find the all the various energies to fulfill your dreams according to your own capabilities and fates. All the best, Kory.

Well, I met with her last night and it seems she's into dropping the material from that band, starting something that's more angular post-punk, and is open to me bringing in some of the trip-hop stuff I want to do as well. I don't really have an excuse any more except that i need to figure out if it's more important for me to work alone or not.

But, wow, it seems like they/she are willing to address your concerns. I think you're right in boiling it down to the deciding point—are you fundamentally a work-alone guy? Nothing wrong with that if that's what you are. Otherwise, get measured for your pink suit!
