The Old Man Band (Players Over 30)

LOL... Supertitos?

I think I sent you an invite too but things were crazy last night with invites not working properly.

I ran my stream again last night - saw some of you drop by. It was fun and totally spontaneous (just decided to do it).

HoneyB: did you get to jam with Angie last night?

[jammmer]

Yeah Bazoozoo,I got your invite and got there as quick as I could but got the "session closed" sign.I think it was near the end of the night for me...Too bad,I did a nice slow set to finish the night.Basically just guitar and vocal geared songs "Polly","Oceans"and "Behind Blue Eyes" Gotta check if you have those tunes,but it would of been nice to have a singer.

LOL... Supertitos?

Oh yeah that was pretty funny,I think the premise was to leave the "o" out of the name....but they'll be none of that fresh talk around here,young man!!

If there is, I wonder when that might be... because at 3 songs a week, RB3 might be out before the full back catalog is.

I agree, 3 songs a week won't cut it. Especially when most of the new DLC has been pretty lame.

Hey Z, I might be around Saturday during the day a bit too...

Sorry I'm going to miss you, yet again. I didn't end up with the opportunity to get on during the day, but as a short bout tonight showed me it wouldn't have mattered. The dregs of that minor cold sitting in my upper chest was greatly exacerbated by my being around a bunch of smokers yesterday and my throat is just shot today. I tried maybe 5 songs and it's starting to really hurt, so time to rest it off. Sorry for anyone else that may have been hoping to send me an invite tonight. I really, really wanted to do some band jamming today. Grrr..

Has anyone else had trouble accepting invites online or having their invites accepted? For example, you click to join a session and it says "session is no longer available" - even though it is. Or you send an invite but it doesn't appear in the recipient's messages?

It might be a router problem. Follow this link for some instructions:

It just requires some port mapping (or port forwarding) in your router's settings.
Enter (private & public settings):
TCP: 80, 443, 3074, 5223
UDP: 3074, 3478

I tried this with my Apple Extreme Base Station and so far so good.

EDIT: It's been over a month since I did this (today is 5/21/09) and I've been able to accept ALL the invites sent to me since then. How's that for anecdotal evidence? However, I continue to have problems with certain people (i.e. SocialDestroyer) who haven't done this. When they are in my band's lobby other people can't join our session. GGgggggggrrrrr!

Jimmyphue good jamming with yoooouuu.lol
At the end there, I was trying to get you to invite me back to your band so you could pick the tunes..man I wish you could talk on this thing.Maybe next time,just send the invite

Hey Jammer, Sorry about failing out on Deep. Thats usually my favorite "ten" song to play . I had been setting up a mobile broadband card to play online with for about 3 hours & drinking some beers. I was so glad to see the mobile broadband work.... I am usually much better, Did you see any glitch's on your end ? I like your taste in music. Lets play again sometime, I promise to be better behaved.

[jammmer]

No glitches that I saw.
Don't have to be behaved with me,catch me on a Sat. night..lookout!!!

[jammmer]

Is anybody getting any of the new dlc???
I don't know any of it,I think "I Love This Bar" is supposed to be a good song...
I don't care about charts or anything like that,I just want to hear a song that won't make me regret spending two bucks on it.
