Title: 2022
Post by: Darth Wagtaros on November 29, 2021, 11:41:00 AM
I used Futureme to send me an e-mail in one year's time, last November.
It just arrived.
"it is the day after Thanksgiving.  It has been a shitty year.  If 2021 sucks consider doing something more drastic. quit job. found band, etc."
I wish I had the first idea as to what to do that would be both drastic and successful.  :jaron:

What will you call your band? :)

You don't actually have to be in the band you found.  All you need is to hang around teenagers in garages.  You could travel the country founding bands.  You'd be the Johnny Apple-Seed of bad renditions of Iron Man.

Looking at the material I have available, I'm thinking it'll be in Second Life, so we don't have to see how embarrassed we are to be in it.

Can I be the tone deaf roadie who drinks all the beers and steals the nicest guitar in lieu of pay?

Yes, but youy'll also need to get addicted to crack.  It is part of the character that we just can't compromise on.  PDH can free up some of the money he's stolen.

It if means crack, crank, horse, ketamine, uppers, downers, screamers, looies, space coke, and maybe some weed then I can spare some coin.

OK, mongers you have Special K and crack, so you can get up and down.  Plus the liquor, but the band itself is supplying that directly. You will need to get married in two different states and sire 12 children by at least 5 women though.

Forget the drugs. Surely driving a van will be more of a problem for mongers?

I've driven numerous vans in my time, including as a sound and light roadie etc.  :bowler:

My idea to start a fictional failed band turned into an argument over whether someone was able to drive an imaginary bus/van while on a bunch of non-existent narcotics. :(

Hell, the band even broke up before the first rehearsal.

I've helped build robots that find themselves on Mars & also kill countless Palestinians.

Our jobs are weird.

Yeah, but which one of you can play drums?  The old drummer is in jail for too many long-winded posts.  And trafficking heroin.
