DP - yes I know, "twang" is also a hot button for Jake. I was just pushing it. Jake I see your point. But so much surf music is bad also, and we still call it surf music. It is just that the Maestro Morricone is a much higher target to hit that many more will fail. But I see nothing wrong with calling the attempt "Spaghetti Western". Of course Morricone is much more than that. He's one of the label defying composers. So yeah, have a good audition dude! Site dude - S3 Agent #202 "It starts... when it begins" -- Ralf Kilauea |

I'm nit picking for the sake of getting people to think about their music in a different way. I would never mean to tell a person how to do music, but in my view people are calling something "spaghetti western" but maybe not capturing it how I see it. That music and those movies are things I've put a lot of thought into. I know I am being harsh, but to present my argument I felt I had to be.
Depends on the song!
Totally! I'm picky about bad surf as well! I just want to challenge people, to make them look at what they are doing because I hear a lot of copying and not a lot from the heart/mind. |

Imafunkyman, congratulations to you. To be honest, as long as you were competent, I had little doubt you would do well. Lets face it. This is an instro/surf band. It isn't like finding another guitarist that has an honest interest in playing that material is a common thing in most towns. —THE KBK ... This is the last known signal.

Thanks! I'm looking forward to playing more, learning their current material, and helping with composing new stuff. —Either you surf, or you fight. |
