I'd be like, "No thanx, just gonna use my penis."

(Why izzit that whenever I make a joke what definitely requires context, it's at the top of the next page?)

I hope he wasn't using 7A's?
hahaha, i use 7A's. he was playing 2B's. and as it turned out, the smallest sticks he had were......2B's. his kick pedal was also set impossibly stiff. i sat down and was like "oh man...." but i managed ok, it was fine.

maybe it was a dis but i thought it was hilarious. i don't take myself seriously enough to get offended by stuff like that.

I HATE playing in a coat, although I have to do it on occasion. I just have mine dry-cleaned every once in a while. The coat doesn't usually get too bad. Usually on gigs where I'm wearing a coat, I'm not sweating like I am on other gigs and the shirt usually gets the bulk of the offensive stuff.

I hate playing in a coat as well. I didn't mind so much playing legit gigs, but even then it sucked. A buddy in college had his sleeves shortened so mallets wouldn't get caught in the cuffs.
