View Full Version : my 360 rock band!

I am a guitar hero master and I'm putting together a rock band for 360 users...need bassist, vocalist, and drummer...a prerequisite is that (A) you don't suck and (B) you aren't a jerk.

The band will be called Nuclear Bakery...but I'd listen to other suggestions.

My Guitar Hero II Resume:
I've beaten all careers
I've FC'ed every song on easy
I've five starred every song on medium and FC'ed 21 of them
I've five starred every song on hard and FC'ed 9 of them
I've five starred every song on expert except for Free Bird, Hangar 18, Misirlou, Carry Me Home, Beast and the Harlot, Psychobilly Freakout, and The Trooper (all of which I have four starred) I've FC'ed 3 songs on expert (not counting bonus songs) ...Possum Kingdom, Heart Shaped Box and Can't You Hear Me Knockin'.
I've FC'ed X-Stream on expert too.

Strengths:
Hammer-Ons, Pull-Offs, EXTREMELY FAST DOWNSTRUMMING, complicated note sequences and chord patterns and fast trills.

Weaknesses:
Double Strumming...I'm really bad at it.

So I'm not the best in the world, but clearly a Guitar HERO!

About me:
My favorite band is Rush (thank god they put Tom Sawyer in RB)
I like classic rock, hard rock, some metal and anything except rap, country and screaming angry d$%&head music.
I live in Minnesota
I'm currently 18 years old, but turn 19 in December.
I spend a lot of time on my 360 and I'll be playing a lot of Rockband (if my schoolwork doesn't interfere too much (I don't expect that it will))
I like billiards, Star Trek (I am a HUGE STAR TREK FAN), Pyrotechnics, and video games.
Any other questions you have about me I'll try my best to answer.

I am looking for people who are good to excellent...I don't need people who are super amazing neccesarily...I wouldn't mind being the most talented person in the band :D , but super amazing band members would be great!

My Gamertag is Dark Mercenary

I was Xbox.coms "Gamer of the Day" sometime in February of '03 (I think it was '03...not sure though...not that it matters)

Hey bro...seems like we are both lookin for similar stuff....I started a thread about a band I wanted to start but I would be happy to join someone elses. Lets talk and see where our ideas overlap.

My resume reads much like yours.

PS...what does FCed mean.

I'm somewhat similar, sans the Star Trek geekdom. But I don't discriminate. :D

I will be purchasing Guitar Hero II soon for the Xbox 360; I found the X-ploder Guitar to be a vile pain in the arse and I didn't want to bother with it. Still, I just might pick it up and use the Rock Band guitar with it. Hopefully.

Guitar Hero I was heavily mastered, so no worries of my skills. I will be working on both bass and drums, so feel free to send me a private message with your GamerTag and any further questions.

PS...what does FCed mean. cool. sounds like we could get something going...
About FC'ed...I just figured out what it means like a week ago; It's where you get 100% notes hit on a song, it stands for Full Combo; I don't no why they call it "Full Comboing" the song, but that is the popular term for it I guess.

I'm a mutherflickin' singer. Loud and fun lovin'! Think AC/DC and GnR. I love sing and I am very emotional. The freedom to pour myself into it.

I'm an insane guitarist/singer who writes music and various other arts.

I play for two bands but I am always open to fill in. I'm backing up for like 3 bands not including this one.

I strum too (beat every GHII song on expert and love bass) but you seem to have plenty stringheads and one scream.

I'll be buying the guitar and the mic(not sure if ill have the cash 4 drums)
-Beat Expert on GHII-360
-Five-Starred Over half the songs
-Stood in as lead singer for my friends Iron Maiden cover band 4 a night(small gig though we only did the Trooper and Powerslave)
-I always memorize a song's lyrics first so if u needed i could play guitar+vocals, bass+vocals, or (maybe)drums+vocals
-my gamertag is "OMEGA MINION2"

I'll be buying all of the instruments so any members of my band will be able to switch around with me if they get bored always playing the same part...I just wanna have some serious fun! I don't care about being the #1 spot on the band leaderboards...I'm happy with #500 or so! I'd love to sing some songs and play bass on others (maybe even play drums for a song, but I'll probably suck at drums), but obviously I'll be listed as the lead guitarist of the band...I'm hoping that band members will be able to change positions for a song or two if they want...they should be able to.

Mogh...I will be getting all the instruments too. So I am happy to swap around...bass, drums, vocals probably the least but there are definitely songs that I can nail.

I excel at bass and guitar but am happy to play whatever. Anything above 500 sounds good to me...haha.

Yeah...looking mostly to play lead guitar and bass, lead would be my preferable "full-time position" (the position that I'm listed as in the band...assuming that each band lists it's members as a certain position somewhere (if not then that's just what I'd probably play the most, but bass is good too)) I'm just looking to have fun...I'll give the drums a shot in single player, but I wouldn't want to drag our band ranking down (assuming that I suck at drums)...Definitely ther'd be a song or two that I'd LOVE to sing on (Tom Sawyer for example), but we can play songs more than once so we could try different configs to give everybody a chance to experience the music! Yeah FYCTION we'll hook up on GH3 and check each other out, have some fun, and get to know each other...I'd say you're my top choice for bass/guitar swap (assuming that bass and guitar are the two most "swapable" positions) ...whatever position you want, I just want you in the band!

You can put me down for Guitars/Drums. I also got a bunch of good band names to run past you guys.

Well I could be your lead vocalist even though the groupies might make fun of my lisp. My recently repaired hair lip extended down through my tongue. also those high notes are a killer for me we better stick to a songs with the lower notes. I think I have the range similar to Rob Zombie.

i'd like to play drums, i can play bass or guitar but am not that great (5 star on hard)so stick pretty much to drums only

Man, I just read a thread that OMEGA MINION2 is your vocalist. That's alright your band isn't cultish enough for me. If any one wants to be part of my band we're gonna be "The Inked, Branded, and Intoxicated Sister Sleepers" with 'The Crippled Donkey Lady Pleaser( or Fingerfloater)' at lead vocals.

Don't give me a resume; to be part of my band you have to have a Red Hot Iron Brand of a Third Eye right above collar bone. As the lead vocalist I get to apply the brand and determine how long it stays on the skin until your unshackled. Don't worry I won't be sloppy like The Jackass boys were with BAMM's infamous brand!

Also, I'm not a hypocrite, so the first Band member that can beat me head to head at GH II's Mirsilov get to give me the brand. That reminds me I gotta go to the welding shop to make the brand!

An alternate requirement, if your a lady, is a lower back tattoo of my picking. Oh yeah if you pick this requirement you better email me a picture and your measurements. Our Band has to look good from both the front and the back! I'm sure the ladies will flock to this band after seeing the band title "The Inked, Branded, and Intoxicated Sister Sleepers".:D

Thanks for compiling that information rob! Great job...uhhh...I guess We've got enough people to form a band but I don't neccesarily want to close entries...If somebody wants to join I think tghey should be able to post, but right now we're looking pretty decent. As I figured there are a lot more guitarists than drummers and singers because the guitar hero crowd is swarming the forums, but then again so are the drummers who are happy to finally have a game for them...AS FOR THE BAND: I'm obviously in for guitar or bass (anything with the guitar peripheral (preferably lead guitar)) and I've been getting a lot of good response from FYCTION who wants to be bass, I'm looking at you to be drums right now, and I'd say Xzyliac is my top choice for singer right now, but nothing is set in stone yet. I guess I'd like to chat with you (onlyrob) sometime to toss ideas around and get to know each other a bit. FYCTION and me are both getting all the instruments so we'll be able to switch around easily, I don't know where anybody else stands in terms of instrument purchases...It's not a prereq to have them all, if you want to that's great, if not that's great too. Me and FYCTION will hook up when GH3 comes out and we'll have a pretty easy time getting to know each other, but like I said I'd like to talk to you onlyrob (I believe ur already on my friends list) for a little while, but I don't think we'll have any trouble gettin' the band together! :D
