Trican User Info... | Yes I need lesson from you... OMG!!! I've beening playing drums for 7 years I don't need any tips or practice from you. Oh and it's realy great that all these people think your a great "talented" musician... and that your own "parents" are actually hired you to play a wicked, far out gig at a wedding. By all means congradulations. I don't even really go to shows. I've only seen you drum about 2-3 times... but what really bugs me about you is that your so god damn cocky it's sickening. P.S. Wow !!! Omg !!!! Is that your drumkit ?!! Man I would fuck Nik Olaz to get my hands on one of those! - Thu, 5 Aug 2004 8:31pm | ||

Nik Olaz User Info... | lookit moron, i was fairly picking on you and tristan. you know to play along. I go out alot, but not enough to be some fucking queen of the maggot hive like you and the rest of your self-praising jerk-off buddies. i encourage your ass to come to the next organsplatter show, i mean we dont have pin ups of us posing for your masturbatory delight in hit parader, but i think you'll enjoy the thrill of a mic being swung in your face. ps: you listen to corporate jock-rock. fuck off. - Fri, 6 Aug 2004 11:28pm | ||
YERMOMSMOM User Info... | Fairly picking huh? play along eh? I qoute first reply of the thread. "here's an idea: get a job" But anyways, ya I want to check out one of yer shows. Whens the next one? - Fri, 6 Aug 2004 11:39pm | ||

YERMOMSMOM User Info... | I sure will, u guys got any mp3's? - Fri, 6 Aug 2004 11:46pm | ||
Nik Olaz User Info... | yeah, we do. will you hear them? no. btw the comment "get a job" is a productive one. as i think we should maybe leave busking for those less fortunate, not someone with a nice set of drums of yours. - Fri, 6 Aug 2004 11:48pm | ||
YERMOMSMOM User Info... | hmm... edit tag: yer it I just wanna get out there and have some fun, all my friends say it dosen't pay well, near the wages of ppl who are working at McD's... But I wanna do it for the thrill. - Fri, 6 Aug 2004 11:49pm | ||
Nik Olaz User Info... | man i'm sure there are some groups you could join that play for charities and costume balls or whatever the community has going on. http://www.jobbank.gc.ca this place has plenty of job opportunities for people who have the skills. - Fri, 6 Aug 2004 11:53pm | ||
YERMOMSMOM User Info... | ya if I want to get a job, but I already have one. - Fri, 6 Aug 2004 11:59pm | ||
Nik Olaz User Info... | ok. - Sat, 7 Aug 2004 12:03am | ||
trican User Info... | Actually .... i'm the one on the very left but i don't look like that any more (it's from 3 years ago). I've actually gone through puberty... gained all these sweet looking muscles and I wear corpse paint and leather now... i love you nik;). And as for the mudvaye comment. Jon Theodore could fucking destroy Matt whutever the fuck his name is. He's a hired drummer you moron one of the best. Too bad the bands I listen too keep making orignal music while yours keep plunging their cock into little boys and play power chords and blast beats. - Sat, 7 Aug 2004 12:03am | ||
YERMOMSMOM User Info... | just not in the summer. - Sat, 7 Aug 2004 12:03am | ||
ScottL User Info... | hmmm ATDI's drummer killed himself... So i suppose he is in niether? Maybe both? Anyway i think the styles are way to far off to compare Matt Mcdonough to The Mars Volta or anything... - Sat, 7 Aug 2004 12:04am | ||
Trican User Info... | buuudy atdi's drummer didn't kill himself at all... your thinking of jeremy ward the 6th member of marsvolta - Sat, 7 Aug 2004 12:11am | ||
YERMOMSMOM User Info... | If u say trican that mudvayne play blast beats, than you haven't even listened to mudvayne before, because matt plays none. And dude I know Jon Theodore is one of the best I listen to thier cd all the time, and I have his interview in Modern drummer. And he got 2nd place for up and coming drummers in the annual MD poll. One of my favourite drum qoutes is from Jon " you gotta die every night on stage, or else it ain't worth watching". So true. - Sat, 7 Aug 2004 12:18am | ||
D�d[]Sanger User Info... | Tonite some busking bastard trying to compete with Vic's one and only origional drumming busker was pissing off me and everyone else in earshot trying to talk over coffee.. yermomsmom: I know you like to show off, but if you're just in it for the thrill, start another band or continue your drum lessons. If I see one more annoying fucking drum busker, shit is gonna go down. So unless you wanna get pelted with tomatoes, leave the busking to those with no other means of financial support! Having said that, I will be at the next Organsplatter show, reason being, they don't fucking suck, they don't fucking pose, and they don't need to brag about their skills. Above all that, since when did having a fucking tan account for anything???? Real musicians useually aren't tanned as they spend all their free time indoors jamming... Also, this thread is lame. "Nuff said"*to quote the immortal Griph* - Sat, 7 Aug 2004 12:20am | ||
Trican User Info... | OMG!!!! really ... ur more of a loser than i thought. - Sat, 7 Aug 2004 12:23am | ||
YERMOMSMOM User Info... | and why is that? - Sat, 7 Aug 2004 12:26am | ||
Trican User Info... | just because.... i'm not even gonna say anything anymore ... i've proven my point 10 fold - Sat, 7 Aug 2004 12:26am | ||
YERMOMSMOM User Info... | wtv, come check out the hoochy girls show im sitting in for tomorrow... and this is my last post on livevic for a while, latas - Sat, 7 Aug 2004 12:30am | ||

Bladge User Info... | hah....tristan,crispy,and nick are arguing the most useless point ever......why don't you all stop wasting your time on this thread and use the time for something usefull....like picking up your instruments and practicing....."NUFF SAID" - Sat, 7 Aug 2004 7:54pm | ||
Zippgunn User Info... | Welcome to LiveVic Crispy where people who actually DO stuff get slagged by useless twats, many of whom can't even spell the word "kvlt" or play their way out of their respective paper bags. You should feel very good because the surest sign that you are doing something worthwhile is when these dorks start getting on your case. Congratulations. P.S. Nobody loves a busking drummer. - Sun, 8 Aug 2004 10:27am | ||
ScottL User Info... | Trican: Are you sure about that... because if i'm not mistaken, Omar and Cedric went and started Mars Volta with some other dudes, and then the Bassist (paul) and other guitarist (jim ward) (who are marginally less interesting than Omar) started Sparta after ATDI's drummer killed himself. Isn't the drummers death the theme of Deloused in the Comatorium? Perhaps i'm a little mixed up. (sparta and TMV are both equally wicked) - Sun, 8 Aug 2004 1:08pm | ||
Trican User Info... | Lemme break it down ATDI-Tony,Jim,Cedric,Omar,Paul TMV-Jon,Cedric,Omar,Flea,Keybord Guy Sparta-Jim, Pual, Tony, Matt TMV album De-loused in the comatorium is about Julio Vengas a tortured artist back in El Paso who commited suicide finally after several attempts. Now Jeremy Ward Jims cousin was the sound and light guy for TMV until he over dosed on LSD fun stuff - Sun, 8 Aug 2004 6:21pm | ||
Mutilashawn User Info... | Dodsanger said "I will be at the next Organsplatter show, reason being, they don't fucking suck, they don't fucking pose, and they don't need to brag about their skills." Thank you very much. Unfortunately the reason Organsplatter doesn't brag about our skills is cause . . . well we don't have any. However Mitochondrion is the fucking shit mofos. and Crispy if you wanna hear Mitochondrion go to our website http://www.mitochondrion.ca. There's mp3's there. Plugity Plug Plug Plug. - Sun, 8 Aug 2004 6:36pm | ||
Mike K User Info... | Neil Peart (Rush) is the best drummer of all time. - Sun, 8 Aug 2004 8:04pm | ||
Curmudgeon Rocker User Info... | And Mike K. has the best user i.d. pic of all time. - Sun, 8 Aug 2004 10:10pm | ||
misfit User Info... | Josh Frese is way up there. But seirously...Chris, he just wants to be the best. It might take him another 15 years before anyone likes him...or maybe he could, you know..leave town? take lessons of his own? stop stealing from kids who would like to play drums? This town needs more drummers..and less ego. - Mon, 9 Aug 2004 12:07am | ||
Mutilashawn User Info... | AHAHAHAHA look at Joe in that picture next to Trican!!!! AHAHAHAHA - Mon, 9 Aug 2004 9:02am | ||
Kris North User Info... | Crispy is a great guy and a good drummer. When he gets his hands on a keyboard some things come out badly sometimes but Crispy is a good guy. - Mon, 9 Aug 2004 9:57am | ||
ScottL User Info... | Thanks Trican, I saw a The Mars Volta interview about a year ago and it was difficult to follow sometimes and i got confused! Thanks for straightening the facts! - Tue, 10 Aug 2004 1:05am | ||
