Eric Vance suggested
Soapy and the Crips.
I think when we get a few more, we could do a poll and everyone vote on their favorite, after all we prolly goan play the tavern till we get well enough to start our big tour.but isn’t soapy really bubbly-like your personality?!
CherylLook boyz another admirer. Her husband plays drums, So you know she will come to see us play, soon as he goes to work..or maybe
Cherl, want in the band? Maybe u could play the spoons.
manager? I could pay u to act like my girl. Maybe that shannon, her sisters, and grandmaw would stop stalking me then.
I’m scared to go to wallyworld now. -

I want to play bass guitar.If that position is filled I’ll just play the tamborine like Stevie Nicks does, with lots of flowing ribbons on it. Can I sing too? I have experience singing on stage, did it with the group “The Duprees”. I think Eric’s name for the band is great.:)

Dear Soapy:
If I started another band, the name would have to be something real strange like Sissy Face. I have played in a bunch of bands with strange names like ‘Office’, “The Four Skins’, and ‘The Zombie Dicks’.
This is a true story, unlike everything else I say here. I was in a band called The Zombie Dicks and we went to play in a saloon near Fort Riley, Kansas. It turns out the place was actually a Saloon/whorehouse. We were hired as one of a series of touring bands so the owner of the saloon never heard our name until he sees the name on the bass drum as we are setting up. The guy comes up and says, “I aint lettin no band called Zombie Dicks play in my establishment. I run a respectable whorehouse, here.” Of course, “is there any other type of whorehouse?”, I ask myself. So I volunteered that we could call ourselves the Zombie Richards instead. He says, “Oh, I thought you was talking about dead men’s peckers, well, never mind then.” Anyway, we played that night, doing our patriotic duty to rev up the First Infantry Division before they went in the backrooms of the saloon and gave their all with the respectable prostitutes of Fort Riley, Kansas.
Now that is the type of story that warms the cockels of my heart. Excuse me if I get all misty eyed on you.

Hay Lee,
hope all is well with u. I was wondering wat instrument u played? Show us u can brag, u so good at writing! I luv reading your post..
I was only in a couple of bands in the early 80’s.
The first one was Crossfire. Mostly Rock and Roll.
Then went country to get a house band gig at the local VFW club. That band was called Empty Pockets.
One guy wrote a song for the band name.
I still remember the hook.
I wish they’d take all that money they spend on those dam ole rockits,
Gimme some back, to put in my empty pockets.peace

[QUOTE=vls]How about “Soapy and the Suds”? ………..I really like your wife’s suggestion also. Hey, soapy, I don’t suppose you need an Oboe player in your band, but I did also play the drums YEARS ago!…Vicki[/QUOTE]
hummm.
thats wat we say when something goes wrong
Obee
A drummer we need. Really with a drummer and bassman, all you need is a singer, cause guitar players are a dime a dozen.
this will prolly bring out Lee and his drummer jokes.and to stay on topic
Soapy and the Porti-Poties

Hi, Vicki.You bring your oboe and I’ll bring my viola, and if Soapy doesn’t want us we’ll start our own.
Deb
PS: and yes, I do know all the jokes about viola players.:rolleyes: This one’s for you:
A violist in an orchestra was crying and screaming at the oboe player sitting directly behind him. The conductor asked, “What are you so upset about?”
The violist replied ”The oboist reached over and turned one of the pegs on my viola and now it’s all out of tune!”
The conductor asked “Don’t you think you’re overreacting?”
The violist replied “I’m not overreacting! He won’t tell me which one!”

Given up? Never! Need to gather all the band names and figure out some way for everyone to vote on em. Anyone have any idea’s on that? Maybe start a post for a signup sheet for the instrument players? We can have more than one person on each instrument so when someone gets drunk, they can be replaced, while they sober up.. hehe
Are oysters not a food? Maybe there is a[I] secret [/I]meaning for the word oyster? ๐ I play for beer, food, anytime, anywhere..
