*GASP* An RP which the Six String Samurai is perfectly suited for, and Dante doesn't use him? I'm in mild shock...

Dante 02-23-2004 10:31 PM

Everyone else's got a guitar. I don't feel original.

lazy man 02-23-2004 10:34 PM

I'm usin a bass, don't blame me

Dante 02-23-2004 10:35 PM

I don't blame anyone, it's just that we have three boombox/turntablists and around the same number of guitarists/bassists. SSS doesn't seem very original.

IHateMakingNames 02-23-2004 10:37 PM

A bass... Big difference there...

If I joined, it would be with a Kazoo (I think that's the name)

Krylo 02-23-2004 10:38 PM

Aww... the six string samurai rocks... and I don't think you could have ever claimed originality... considering the movie...

Forever Zero 02-23-2004 10:38 PM

That little thing that makes a sort of wierd buzzy noise? Heh heh, taht's definitly original...

Truce 02-23-2004 10:46 PM

I can somehow picture a Kazoo being the ultimate weapon in this.

Dante 02-23-2004 10:48 PM

Ah well. I'll just redo the SS in the approved format, then.

IHateMakingNames 02-23-2004 10:51 PM

I want to be in someone elses band/group thingy... What are the bands/groups anyway?

(I have decided to join, with my Kazoo)

CelesJessa 02-23-2004 11:01 PM

I don't know what party I'm in either. ^^;; I wasn't sure we were gonna be split up.

Squishy Cheeks 02-23-2004 11:02 PM

I was the first with a guitar. So who wants to be in my band?

lazy man 02-23-2004 11:05 PM

I guess I'll be the bassist

Darth SS 02-23-2004 11:06 PM

I was the first mixer!

So, who wants to go with the original mixa'?

Squishy Cheeks 02-23-2004 11:07 PM

Join my band We'll make hendrix influenced rock/rap.

IHateMakingNames 02-23-2004 11:07 PM

I think all the non band people should form into a group.

So my Kazoo, the tap dancer, and that bag pipe guy...

lazy man 02-23-2004 11:08 PM

grrrr...no rap

Squishy Cheeks 02-23-2004 11:09 PM

Alright hendrix influenced techno rock

Forever Zero 02-23-2004 11:09 PM

Bah, I was a mixer before this RP started you young whippersnapper! [/Oldy Speech]

But I'm already a Thumpmasta', so I'm taken. Actually, a band with a kazoo, a tap dancer, and bagpipes would be interesting to say the least...

Squishy Cheeks 02-23-2004 11:14 PM

All you would need is a didgeridoo and you would be the most annoying band on earth

lazy man 02-23-2004 11:16 PM

isn't that that gigantic horn thing? *shudder* that would be annoying

IHateMakingNames 02-23-2004 11:16 PM

What's a didgeridoo? Maybe that will be my guy's second instroment.

Title: MY EARS! THEY BURN! (Real name Kaz)
Age: 17
Eyes: Brown
Hairstyle: Short, spikey, light brown.
Skin: Tanned
Outfit: A black shirt and jeans
Instrument: Kazoo, a didgeridoo, a washboard and a jug.
Genre: A kazoo inside of a didgeridoo with a jug died to the bottom moving ontop of a washboard.
Bling Bling: A belt buckle that says "BAM" on it.
BTM:
Scandals: Most messed up musician ever.

Squishy Cheeks 02-23-2004 11:18 PM

http://users.pandora.be/rudy.hoekman/volks3.htm

Forever Zero 02-23-2004 11:19 PM

This is a didgeridoo.

http://aboriginalart.com.au/images/dg_p16.gif

You would indeed be the most annyoing band on earth... You wouldn't just kill robots, you would kill everything that heard your music...

IHateMakingNames 02-23-2004 11:20 PM

Now I have a didgeridoo. Depends on which song he uses what instrument on, or sometimes both at different parts (Or both at once, put the Kazoo in the didgeridoo)

CelesJessa 02-23-2004 11:21 PM

Most annoying band on earth? Nah. That's already been done by N*Sync. (burn. ^^; heheh) Or *insert rival marching band whom I dislike*


But it would be.... interesting to say the least.

Forever Zero 02-23-2004 11:22 PM

I think in the Bling category, Dezil is going to invest in some ear plugs for when your group plays...

Squishy Cheeks 02-23-2004 11:22 PM

The most annoying band of all time would include a kazoo player, a bagpipeist, a washboard player, and a didgeridoo player. The music could possibly end the universe.

Forever Zero 02-23-2004 11:23 PM

Oh, and a jug player. That's pretty bad too.

IHateMakingNames 02-23-2004 11:23 PM

Now I might use a washboard... Put the kazoo in the didgeridoo, then while playing those move the didgeridoo around on the washboard while blowing at a jug.

Forever Zero 02-23-2004 11:24 PM

Oh, and what's that huge horn they use in those commercials for Rikola or whatever...

IHMN, you have just crafted the most messed up musician in history if you do that. I congratulate you...

EDIT: Oh, and you need to think up some really crazy band name to go with the worst band ever, like "The Smelly Rabid Weasals" or something...

Dante 02-23-2004 11:27 PM

I suppose he would create a Marvin situation.

And I'll stick with SSS.

IHateMakingNames 02-23-2004 11:28 PM

I now have that guy. His title is "That guy..."

Squishy Cheeks 02-23-2004 11:29 PM

On the simpsons they had a kazoo, bagpipe, didgeridoo band call "As annoying as we want to be."

Darth SS 02-23-2004 11:31 PM

And my guy would join them, and remix it into techno.

Then it would be called, "Funded by Barney and Satan."

CelesJessa 02-23-2004 11:31 PM

I think didgeridoo sounds kinda cool. But I dislike bagpipes a lot...

Oh yeah. should I stick with my character being named Maxie Ford (pun intended) or stick with the changed name?

IHateMakingNames 02-23-2004 11:32 PM

My guy has a bagpipe to now. And the preformer is a tap dancer (I think... Celes hasn't responded to that yet)

Dante 02-23-2004 11:33 PM

When people heard it, their spleens would reach up through their throats to throttle their brains to end the agony.

No no no, still not evil enough. How about "Funded by Microsoft, Barney, and Satan."

EDIT: IHMN, I think someone already called bagpipe amazingly...

EDIT: I think the reponse ot hearing it owuld be closer to this...

I began to feel a burning feeling in my stomach, which rose into my chest, and then I lost consciousness. I awoke the next day in a hospital bed. Later that day, the doctors informed me of just what had happened. As I was listening to the band, my stomach began to produce an excess amount of acidic bile. Then, through a remarkable feat of many muscles working together, my body forced the bile up, through my esophagus, past my throat, and into my sinus cavities. I overheard a doctor say to a nurse “It was as though he tried to dissolve his own brain.” That man will never know how right he was.

Slightly modified and taken from the Something Awful website, but it applys here...

CelesJessa 02-23-2004 11:35 PM

I'll be the performer in the ugly sounding group. ^^

AND I have a name for them!

They should be called "WT-HITS"
"What The Hell Is That Sound?"

IHateMakingNames 02-23-2004 11:36 PM

I like that name, that's a good one.

And stuper said he was using bag pipes... But screw him says I.


Edit - My guy's title is now MY EARS! THEY BURN! (That;s what people scream when he plays, so he assumes that is his title. He thinks it's a positive thing)

Yep, your one of the good ones IHMN...

And off topic, but damnit, ever since I heard "Robot Hell" from that site you posted, it got stuck in my head. It's a surprisingly catchy tune...

Squishy Cheeks 02-23-2004 11:45 PM

to qoute red vs blue "FOR GOD'S SAKE WHAT IS THAT MUSIC!!!"

CelesJessa 02-23-2004 11:46 PM

How did I get caught up in the no-talent bad-sounding group? ^^ hahaha.

Other name idea:

MEAB
"My Ears Are Bleeding"

WITS
"What Is That Sound?"

But so you guys like "WT-HITS"?

IHateMakingNames 02-23-2004 11:48 PM

I was going to name my guy "My ears are bleeding", but I felt like using burning instead.

Mr. Viewtiful 02-24-2004 12:19 AM

Woah. GOne writin' english papers, and look what I miss out on. *whew* INITIATE RUNDOWN MODE!!
1) Mr. V is glad to see more dudes joining the RP.
2) Mr. V would like to point out the he (Thumpman) was the first DJ/breakdancer/boomboxuser/turntablemaster/foorballplayer/vigilante/semi-band leader/whatever. Mr. V thinks that the public ignored this fact (check it, 2nd char profile, man!)
3) Mr. V does enjow talking in the 3rd-Person once in a while :D
4) Here's Thumpman's motivation in this: possibly bring together the old band, whiole maybe looking for new members. In other words, Thumpman'll be lookin' for people to join his band, but he's lookin' for Ripel and Dezil first.
5) Mr. V hopes the combined volume of Thumpman's boombox, along with the tricked out speaker system in the Thumpmobile, will drown out anything that might cause him to fie of music (mostly because he'd be laughin too hard, he's pretty accepting of new stuff).
RUNDOWN MODE, OFF!
6) Mr. V got approved by Ecurt, so...yeah.

*whew* glad to get that out...

Ecurt's gonna start up the RP tomorrow (I think), so here's to a great RP! *toasts root beer*

Dante 02-24-2004 12:26 AM

Hmm... Yo, Mr. V, is it alright if Priest joins the Thumpmastas? Either that, or he'll follow Celes.

IHateMakingNames 02-24-2004 12:28 AM

You can't just follow Celes. You're normal with your guitar. She's with the freak (My guy)

CheshireThief 02-24-2004 02:03 AM

I shall make a character... He shall be a .... BEATBOXER!!!

Title: Pac-Guy (real name, Rob Clanton)
Age: 18
Eyes: Brown.
Hairstyle: Short and brown. Sometimes wears a red baseball cap
Skin: Light-skinded, doesn't get a lot of sun, and doesn't really tan when he does.
Outfit: Flip-flops, a random soccer jersey, and khaki cargo shorts.
Instrument: He beatboxes
Genre: Anything but rap. (yes, a beatboxer that will not do rap)
Bling bling: He has a soccer ball, and he has a roommate back home that has random musical instruments.
BTM: Rob Clanton is a college student. He decided at first to enter the contest to show off his mad beat box skills. He also wanted some cash so he could buy more Ramen noodles. He already gave blood this month, so he can't do that again.
Scandals: Rob Clanton has been known to join any band that would take him. He was in a rock band until they decided to do Limp Bizkit covers. Then he quit.

Sound good? Can he join up with you, IHMN?

Tor 02-24-2004 04:32 AM

Hey mr V you need a bass playah... I can change my char so that he can follow your beats

Mr. Viewtiful 02-24-2004 08:37 AM

Let's leave the band joining for the RP. I plan on having a little storyline for Thumpman during the first chapter, consisting mostly of various flashbacks and butt-kicking, etc. Actually, evn though Thumpman doesn't have a band, he sill works as a freelance DJ and a one-man show at times...I see possibilities for this...*jots down notes*

Basic answer for Tor: at the moment, no, as the Thumpmasts either doesn't exist as of the moment, or Thumpman IS the Thumpmastas. Just wait 'til later, I got a plan.

darkt0aster 02-24-2004 10:40 AM

Feh, this is what sleep gets me, missing about 7 new pages of text...
2 more bassists?! wow...

I think having one more band would be sufficient so we can distribute the overused instruments like bass and dj stuff...If I'm not mistaken, we've got the Thumpmasta(s), the so far nameless Hendrix rock/techno one, and WT-HTS...

hey, JADguy, mind If Abysmal DJs for your group?

Squishy Cheeks 02-24-2004 10:46 AM

nope Hell I'd welcome celes but she wants to join the ear bleeding band.

How's "The Experience" for a title sound?

darkt0aster 02-24-2004 10:50 AM

Sounds Great...I can only come up with wierd band names such as Steele Frank, Spastic Colon, 42% Unsure, and...well, that's about all I could think of as I type this...

CheshireThief 02-24-2004 12:53 PM

I actually used to be in a punk band called Whisker Biscuit.... if anyone wants to use that (lol).

anyway, if it's alright, i went with two instruments

Title: Peter gilmore
Age: 17
Eyes: forest green
Hairstyle: spiked black hair pointing with a slight curve to the back of his head
Skin: light tan
Outfit: hoody with holes on the elbows, black shirt, and jeans with holes on the knees
Instrument: accordian and stand up bass
Genre: zydeco, polka, punk and jazz
Bling bling: several subwoofers in the back of his 80's suburban with enough amplifiers to run them all,
BTM: i'll this figure out later.
Scandals: tends to destroy almost everything he lives in due to the subwoofers being too loud while watching movies that have a lot of base in them.

IHateMakingNames 02-24-2004 04:16 PM

Meh, no one cares what you say.

I got rid of the bagpipes anyway, since they aren't even funny, just stupid.

stuper of thought 02-24-2004 04:18 PM

um...are you sure NOBODY cares about what i say? cause if that was true, you wouldn't have posted that and i would have figured that out on my own.

IHateMakingNames 02-24-2004 04:24 PM

For one, I was just posting that I removed an item from my character. You just happened to have posted, so I replied to it anyway.

And just because one replies does not mean they care. Caring would bring about an emotion beyond boredom, which is what triggered me to reply.

Edit - Negative caring is just as bad as not caring I might add.

stuper of thought 02-24-2004 04:26 PM

let me see if i have this right, you just replied out of sheer boredom?

darkt0aster 02-24-2004 04:54 PM

Accordion...awesome! :) I know my char can play one, but it probably won't play a large part in this RP. Heck, I got the idea from, well, myself...i play ... have for about 12 years, tell me if there's anything you need 2 kno about the instrument :D

stuper of thought 02-24-2004 04:58 PM

well, i came up with the accordian cause my dad got one at a garage sale when i was little. but i never took the initiative to learn it and i'm not sure if my dad still has it.

Bite the Wax Tadpole 02-24-2004 08:11 PM

Are there any keytar players? A keytar in this RP would rockzor.

Rhuhael 02-24-2004 08:33 PM

I forget how many heavy metal/ rock people are there and how many of them play bass?

darkt0aster 02-24-2004 09:44 PM

if i'm not mistaken, the bassist count is at 5 (!) ... my guy is one, but he'll just DJ to start out with.

and yes, a keytar would be pretty cool.

oh, and right before this RP starts, somebody should compile a basic list of the bands, the members and their instruments and genres. This is so we can all figure out who's where and the gist of each char...I could do it if noone else wants to, but I'm still a bit confused as to who belongs to what group...*goes to review previous pages*...

Rhuhael 02-24-2004 09:47 PM

A keytar would actually fit in perfect with a techno DJ

Mr. Viewtiful 02-24-2004 09:52 PM

Well, I can say that Thumpman, Solo (Ripel) and Techmasta D (Dezil) are ex-members of the thumpmastas. The other 4 ex-members are NPCs, so don't worry about it. Everyone, post whichever band you're in along with profesion, and we can solve this. I'll start us off:

(ex) Thumpmastas
Thumpman (Blyr) (All-around DJ, breakdancer, background vocalist)
TechMasta D (Dezil) (techno DJ)
Solo (Ripel) (lead vocalist, pop dancer)

Rhuhael 02-24-2004 09:54 PM

Currently I'm a solo bassist/writer/singer and a damn good one at that.

Anyone need a rock bass/singer I'm here

stuper of thought 02-24-2004 09:58 PM

my character is a soloist right now as well.

Rhuhael, what do you think about starting a rock band with someone that plays an accordian?

Rhuhael 02-24-2004 10:01 PM

...... It had to be an accordian?

I was looking for some electric strings (cello, violin, guitars) and a drummer first. But what the hell I'll go with it! :)
Can it be an electric accordian? Then we can have overdrive polka!

Haruko's currently not in a band... and she plays bass... Genre is rock and roll. Because that's what she had in FLCL... or I would have picked an instrument slightly less used.

stuper of thought 02-24-2004 10:04 PM

as far as i know, accordians are reeded instruments that have a bellows to produce the airflow for whatever and i was kind of thinking we'd have Flogging Molly as an influence cause they have an accordian player in their midst. however, the accordain sounds could go through a mic with somekind of sound effects.

Rhuhael 02-24-2004 10:05 PM

I thought haruko played a guitar?

I'm confused now.

To stuper: work with me baby c'mon overdrive techno polka!
But honestly yeah that'd work. I just like the overdrive polka thing.

I think I'm with JADGuy

Hmm, sounds like some sort of bizarre team up attack... Which reminds me, are we going to have say band team up attacks, so that individually we have our own "Overdrives" (For me it's "Techmasta' Remix!") but as a band group we might do a team super overdrive, like say the Thumpmasta's could do, "Big Head Thumpmasta's Remix Omega!", or something equally grandoise and long winded (I can go on all day, just combine Techmasta' D's ultimate with Thumpman's ultimate (According to the omake I did), and their attack would almost be a small paragraph sentance long...)

One of those.

It's common for accordions to be amplifiable. It's like a guitar, it uses the same cord an plugs in right below the keyboard side. Has built in mics and various knobs to adjust vol, treble, etc. Otherwise, you've got it right

CheshireThief 02-24-2004 11:50 PM

Well... for someone looking for members, my guy plays guitar and beatboxes... he can do double duty as guitar and percussion if need be... any takers?

Mr. Viewtiful 02-25-2004 12:20 AM

Yeah, me an' FZ can go all day...

Just for convenience, when you list the guy you have, band, and profession, do it like this:

Name (Band) (other stuff)

Makes it easier on the GM :D

PS: FZ, empty your PM box, I got somehting for ya.

Forever Zero 02-25-2004 12:23 AM

Wow, didn't realize I had so much stuff in there. PM boxes seem sort of small at times...

Anyway, I cleared up some space.
