So what are we all up to right now? I know some of us (Shannon, Aeolian, & MIA Donnie) are doing the full blown Rock Star Stuff, some of us (Chris & Drew) are doing the serious day job routine, and some of us (Wayne) are just out to lunch ( :lol: ).

So don't be shy, step up and tell us all about your current musical projects no matter how big or small (bedroom shredders welcome) with your seven stringers!

Working on a favorite song from your hero? Gigging the local watering hole? Beating Cancer (Regor)? Woodshedding? Writing? Recording? Schooling?

What's everyone doing now a days?

What kind of thing are shooting for? Covers? Originals? Metal maybe?

Work..School..Guitar..Girlfriend :p

Work is keeping me busy because in my department (I work electronics at target) there is just me and one other person so they have to split up the hours between us (opening shift and closing shift) or find someone to cover..

I want to make a band to but no one here plays sevens or is really into metal! :wallbash: damn christian hardcore music scene!

Bedroom shredder here. :D Although I'm saving up to get a recording-rig (POD xt, DFH, new soundcard?, MIDI-keyboard).... Solitude in all honor, but getting your stuff down, and adding to it afterwards takes your playing to a new level. Not to mention, I'm looking for a drummer and a bassist to form a band with my friend who also plays guitar.

As most of you know, I'm teaching full time. I'm up to 16 regular students, with 3 occasionals, and I'm still looking for a few more. I love not having a day "job" :D (not that teaching can't be work, but it's almost like cheating :) )

Musically, well, I had been working on a prog-metal band, and things were going good, but then. Now I'm working on a concept album kind of thing with the singer we found. Well, heck, it's just easier for me to post this for those who are interested: Jake's musical updates

I don't want to abridge it and leave out details, but I don't feel like re-telling it all here :lol:

I've also decided I'm going to sell some of my stuff so I can add a Lexicon MPX-G2 to my rig.

I just joined Divison, bringing the total talent level of the band down a few notches. :lol: This is my first band that actually requires seven strings, so I'm still in learning curve mode, although I'm quickly getting to the point of wondering how I ever survived with only six strings.

I'll let eaeolian elaborate about the band status, after he tells Colonel Pogue who's side he's on.

Guess I should mention that I often run into colliding confrontations, being a Christian who listens to metal. Heh.

Moved out of my parent's about a month ago to the city of dundee. Workin the telephone sales :noplease: I get to phone up 300 people a shift trying to sell them things. On the plus side, it's done wonders for my telephone manner lol

Music wise, working on an EP for my band, get teh music out there and hopefully make a couple of quid if we're lucky. Got a small tour planned with some other local bands playing around scotland for next summer hopefully.

Hehe, I laugh too. But hey, I think there's no way to get talent out of listening to only Christian Music. While I don't endorse the song and it's meaning, it sure is a heck of a chop builder :shred: I figure as long as I only listen to it for musical value, it's all good :cool:

Organical is gearing up to play our first shows since March 2004. We've got a new bass player on board, and we have a drummer coming out for a session with us this weekend. We're hoping she's interested in joining, as she's one of the best drummers we've seen locally (other than our former drummer, of course), and we're all big fans.

I'm also gearing up to move to a new house in the beginning of November, where i'll actually have space to set up my gear and a dedicated space for playing and recording.

Well, I'm in a band, we play metal, and we recently lost our bassist (yet to be replaced) and aquired a second guitarist and a vocalist and the music is getting just that much better with the addition of people who bring in new ideas and are capable of writing good stuff...We're trying to get our shit together for a show on halloween at a club called fusion somewhere around Jacksonville...I'm also writing some instrumental stuff with a friend (anything from jazzy sounding stuff to metal) which we plan to eventually record.
