  1. Ahh, Smash Mouth - the one-hit wonder band.

    Are you doing it with anyone else or just on your own? That's how The White Stripes started out: an open-mic night.
  2. Just on my own. Sometimes other people that play solo sets at open mic night come up and ask other performers to duet with them if they know certain covers, so there's always a possibility of that. Those moments are always fun to watch from the crowd- completely live, unrehearsed moments where the chemistry between the performers really just takes total control of the mood.
  3. Also I'm throwing a party tomorrow night, you should all come.
  4. Not bad, enjoy it and good luck!

    Not the first party I've been invited to for tomorrow night and I can't make either! Working unfortunately and I don't have £500+ to pay for a plane ticket. Sorry Matt, I'm afraid that RSVP will have 'Decline' written on it.
  5. Thanks

    Damn. I'll just post a picture of your avatar up on the wall and pretend that you've attended. I'll let you know how your conversations were afterwards.

    In all honesty, people will probably so drunk by the end of the night that talking to a piece of paper wouldn't be far out of the ordinary.
  6. Haha, yeah and we'll see if I still pull.

    I'm getting to the point where I'm fed up of not being 18 and not being able to go to clubs or pubs. It's driving my social life to the grave.
  7. I JUST passed that age last weekend...its definitely freeing. You spend a lot more money though.

    21 here in the States. :/
  8. Yeah, I saw you tagged in a picture saying "First legal drinks" and I was like WTF? But then I realized that the drinking age is 21 in the US.

    I'm just waiting for it. I spend my wage on music basically and I know once I'm 18, I'll have to half it to save money for going out incase I feel like it. I suppose it'll be fun though.

    How's life being 21?
  9. Pretty awesome. It's just nice that at a concert or anything now, I don't have to have someone go get me a beer and make sure nobody watches them hand it to me...I can drink casually and socially and not worry about being in trouble for it.

    For example I'm going to buy the cases of beer for the party later. I don't have to rely on someone else to go to the liquor store for me.

    Also, the bars here are quite the social scene, it being a university and what-not, thats what the students of age tend to do. So it's fun to go somewhere a little more mature.
  10. Yeah, I can imagine.

    Weird how the legal drinking age is drastically different in two countries that we live in. I personally think 21 is a little high.
  11. Doesn't it differ across the states in the US?

    Checked it out, seems like that's not the case.

    Is it a 100% ban, or is light beer and stuff like that fine? In Sweden there's no age limit on things with less than 2% (something like that), so stuff like light beer and cider could be legally bought by a toddler. Although I'd imagine a baby would have other issues.

    I'M SO JEALOUS, I have a year (11 months...) until I turn 21 -______- 21 always felt high, 20 or 18 is good I think
