hey everyone... i'm from a nanaimo metalcore band called broken, and i'm throwing an animal rights bash at the cambie on the 27th of july. I have a few bands already, but if anyone is interested in supporting the cause and wants to play (you don't get paid, sorry!) just give me a shout. fellow vegans welcome!! - Fri, 16 Jul 2004 12:11am

Sorry this is off topic, but I've been wondering for a while....

I've been curious about what vegans use for guitar straps... Cause every guitar strap I've seen has _some_ leather on it, like the nylon straps have the bit of leather on either end.... Have i just not been looking hard enough for vegan straps (ok, I haven't been looking at all), or are they hard to come by? - Wed, 21 Jul 2004 1:58am

actually, bathrobe ties work quite well as straps... but you can use anything, really. the key to veganism is to be as weird and creative as possible... i make all of my studs and whatnot out of that nylon-type stuff that belts are made with... i also have a bullet belt, and i imagine it would make a very useful guitar strap. luckily, i'm the singer and i don't have to worry about it... the rest of my band are crazed carnivores. - Wed, 21 Jul 2004 11:59pm

The other explanation I've heard is that vegans all play acoutics and therefore it's a non-issue, but a lot of vegans know how to rock......

And you could always make an all-duct tape strap, in a pinch.... - Sat, 24 Jul 2004 4:23am
