Online Virtual Band!?!?!?

I truely believe that there are other real musicians out there in the world, but they are often so hard to find.

 

These days a lot of people conduct their whole lives online... they use email texting and IM instead of calling people.  They use Facebook as a social interaction experience, probably where in the past you would go down the pub.

 

So why not start a band online?

 

I realise that this has actually happened already, and there is an online band or two out there, but I thought it might be an interesting way to have a laugh.

 

Is anyone else interested in giving it a go and trying to write a few songs (if that's even possible over the internet), perhaps for a myspace page, just for kicks?

 

if you're interested please PM me and we'll see if we can start a group on this forum (a private one) to chat about it.

 

hopefully we can come up with something better than this: http://ababasoft.com/music/virtual_band.html lol

 

Cheers

    I've been doing the Rifflink thing for a few years, not quite a band, more like hundreds of guitar players. Tommy Lee is doing the Public Record thing which is really cool if you guys haven't checked that out. He even gave me a shout out. Anyways great idea.

      Cool -- I hadn't heard of the Public Record thing.  I've been meaning to tell you for awhile that I listened to something you posted about a month ago (maybe 2?) of you "noodling" -- it sounded freaking fantastic!  You've got great chops, and I'm not surprised you got a shout out from a pro musician.  Well deserved, mate!

    Hi Rowbi:

     

    Say, I hope you keep us in The Lounge updated on your progress with the band--maybe post an occasional mp3 of how it's going? or online journal...
