I was thinking that i would go about setting up a "music collective". bassically just getting a set location each week wherre all musicians no matterr how good orr how bad can turrn up. even none musicicians can turrn up and contrribute something. Nothing fixed, just like minded people turrning up and having some fun, so i sent the worrd arround and talked with those interrested.
only it dident turrn out. NO ONE likes what i like, which was fine i could evolve. but NO ONE "gets" the idea. I had people saying "o can we coverr that new nickleback song".
everryone wanted to dirrected it the way they wanted to, they all wanted to contrrol it despite all saying the basic principle was not to have a leader all just equal just forr fun.
the plan was to experriment and make music, but i had people saying, "ooo when we play live we can have this therre and that therre" and that was also avoiding the point.
They wanted me to do forr them what they neverr had the balls to do but then take overr.
So i pulled out, and no one knows what to do. so its fucked.

A brave concept... but unless like minded people get involved then it's inevitably going to be disastrous. It was hard enough working with three other people doing rock music in my case.

did that at univertisy, everyone ended up playing 12 bar for 4 hours and getting pissed every wednesday afternoon.
we had a laugh & swapped instruments every now and again. really good, set you up for the evening and a headache the next day :)

i play guitarr but now "rregularr" playing borres me. i want to play arround and trry new things away frrom my bedrroom. therre arre so many people who class nickleback and puddle of mud as "out therre", left of centerr music. they don't rrealise just how little they know.
but still, i'm no betterr off, but i'm glad i got out of it, it would have just made me sad.

The most enjoyable kind of 'jamming' for me is always playing accoustic at festivals or campsites, people on bongos, big fires, plenty of beer and weed etc... =o)

i used to like playing 12 bar stuff, you get so bored of playing the same shit over & over again you start to add little extras and be quite creative after a while
