er... ok... your post is just plain weird.......

But anyways, thanks for sharing........ and while I'm flattered, I hate to break it to you, but I'm straight - and married.....

Jesse, OTOH, *might* be interested -- don't know, don't care... but you can take it up with him - who knows, you might get lucky........ :rolleyes:
 
funny

this thread will never go away. Jessie is playing into everyone on this board to keep a false controversy brewing amongst everyone. In the meantime he has had an unbelievable amount of downloads on his songs which in turn keeps his score up from the place he has his songs posted. Which in turn, causes more people to download his music that come across his name and see all the hits. Hmmmmmmmmmm, good idea Jessie. I have to applaud you on a pretty creative thinking in keeping the stink going on in this thread. And here I am adding to it. Shit. Oh well. Get youself out there and perform live for the bartender and a couple of waitresses and the one drunk that's puking in the corner. That will humble you a bit.
Good Luck

duuude. im straight too... duh!! ya know, i was just poking some fun, trying to lighten up the mood here on this thread... good times.

okay, everyone. i have talked some shit to people in the past, and now it is my turn to take it. my purevolume sight is up and you can check out one of my songs there. it is strictly acoustic and vocals... so you cant get a good feel for anything. which is okay because the recording sucks too. we did it in two seconds for my girlfriend on valentines day... tell me what you think though... i am going to start a new thread... so you can go there

here is the purevolume link....

Hola' ... If you are going to pronounce my name differen't I would prefer the more traditional "Jesus", (that's 'heysuess' for all of of you white boys ...).

Anyway ...

Blue Bear- That's okay if you do not believe me, I wouldn't expect you to. It doesn't make much sense to leave such a situation as I described for the great unknown does it? Now if I may ask for a little patience please while I give you a little history ...

Well, much to the chagrin of various friends and family, I left a nice secure enviorment for reasons that I have alluded to before. Purchasing a home, having a new car, nice clothes, and plenty of money in your early twenties without anyone's help seems to be as much as one could ask for right? Well, after time, the luster of a fortune, (another song title; one of which is in my current set), fades away. On a "psuedo-intellectual" level, as it were ... hhhmmmm, (clears throat), I could find no real personal value in this. I realized that it was an impression of success from others that I had mistakenly based my future on; upon much consideration, I realized that the "American Dream" was neither fun, nor personally fulfilling in the least. So I made a drastic change. One that cost me dearly in more ways than I can say ... I neither am proud of, or tout these accomplishments to make myself feel good in any way, (you got that geet73?). I merely stated the facts to give some of you a more personal glimpse into my mind-set.

I am not gay, (" ... not that there's anything wrong with that" from TV's Sienfeld). But if I were, I don't think that I would prefer a drama queen, thanks.

dcwave- Not only do I wait and hope for the unknown to show itself during performances, I thrive on the idea of an uncontrollable outcome. I welcome all to come and speak with me directly before, or after a show. If you think you wan't to start shit with me, you better pack a lunch though; because even if you happen to defeat me, I promise you that you will not leave without injury.

mshilarious- It's just me and an acoustic for now. No hype. No bullshit. I hope to be doing a full-blown electric type situation as soon as possible though ...

Cloneboy- If your abilities are on par with your attempts at describing and insulting me, then in the least, I would call your talent suspect. Even if you are better than me; great. I never said or implied that I was, or believed in, any such thing as "the best". More power to you and your supposed talent ...

In reference to my equipment and sound quality ...

Truth be told; my sound quality, in my opinion, ranges from deplorable to barely acceptable. Try raising four kids and making a choice between equipment versus the needs for your children, and you may discover an inkling of the dilema's that I have faced. While comfortable, I never said that I was well off. And once again, the passing of time and/or opportunities being of great concern to me, (as with sometimes in war), concessions at times must be made. Am I happy with that? A sad, truthful and resounding NO. You may actually be sympathetic, (or not), to know that I do not have studio monitor's, or a home stereo to judge mixes on; but rather a broken set of headphones with one channel working. Also, I am afraid that the practice P.A system that I own is not much help either in the determination of both track levels or sound frequencies. This is no excuse; just my situation. I have had to "guess" about my mixes until I have heard them going through such systems as local radio, or bullshit car stereo's. I have to cover the expenses from all instruments to everything else, so as you well know, it can add up fast. On top of that, I have also had to purchase what I needed for a live performance. Now what kind of father would I be if I chose equipment over my kid's need's? Not a very good one I am afraid. Such a sad story, huh? No fuck that ...; that would be weak. It is my place for now, and I have accepted it. I am currently trying to remedy the situation though, believe me. Soon, very soon, I hope to get some more equipment; but school just started a while ago, and well, there is no such thing as a "free public education", so time will tell what will happen ...

Don't judge my engineering abilities quite yet; the biggest test for me has yet to come ...

dantell- I HAVE played for no one before; and I have been humbled many times in life ... This is a good thing for all performers to experience. That is why I appreciate every single person's attention that I can get. It is also why I think that every performance is a special one, as you never know who or what may be watching ...


The legend has spoken.


A moment of silence and reflection is encouraged ...
 
In that case, I think it was pretty damn stupid of you to come here all full of testorone bragging about your work when you know from the start that it's of inferior sonic calibre - certainly compared to others who are more well-equipped......... you had to know that those with ears would slaughter you once you decided to be an ass after asking for (and getting) critiques.

Yes, I willingly went to the slaughter house with my neck bared open for all to see. But I am at a point where the possible benefit's of going public "too soon", out-weighed the potential impact of the quality of my sound. I have found that the general public is much more leniant in it's acceptance of poor sound quality than most musician's. And please don't take the somewhat questionable remark's that I have made about some of you personally, as a sign that I haven't taken every technical opinion that has been given deadly serious. It take's too much time and effort to learn of this "science" of recording, to discount such obviously talented and professional viewpoint's. Once again, I say; nice guys finish last or unknown. I made an educated desicion to approach marketing myself in an aggressive manner. Good, bad, or ugly, I am still pleased with the results.

Well good for you - if you're happy with the fact that you've lost a lot of potential help (not to mention potential fans) by alienating the people here.

I can't speak for them, but I know you'll be getting no further assistance from me, technical or otherwise.
 
I Love Jessie.
I Hope He Dies So People Can Recognise Him As A Talentless Waster Like Kurt Cobain.
 
Holy shit. You can talk in a civilized manner. I'm astonished.

I am a musician and I can't stand musicians who are full of themselves. It pisses me off to no end.

Good luck to you in the future.

I have a set of Sony MDR-V600s that the lining is worn thin (foam coming out). I need to replace them since I'm going commercial soon and I don't think clients will be too impressed. However, both channels work fine, so if you want 'em gratis, PM me.
 
Hey, now...I'm a nice guy and so far don't seem to be going down the road to finishing last (not that there's anything wrong with that ;) )...and if no one else, my children will know me in the end, hopefully grandchildren and a handful of good friends. Then again, I have never been that concerned about publicity.
The world has too many self-centered, me-me-me-I-I-I kind of people and could benefit from having and encouraging more nice people, in my very humble opinion. :)

p.s.-I respect the fact that you follow your dreams, but there is no reason to be a mean person in life if that is what you were alluding to. BTW, it's great being a dad, huh? I have two children myself.
 
Blue Bear- You have already given me some information to work with; and besides, even gracing me with your mere holy presense is enough in of itself. In all seriousness ... Anything that you can say will be helpful ... Come on ... you know that you can't keep from saying SOMETHING ... Good karma to you my knowledgable antagonist!

bazzlad- I take even being mentioned in the same breath as Mr. Cobain a compliment. My quick take on him ... Have any of you ever come down from getting high off of the same shit he was doing? ... You would probably slap your own mother if she looked at you wrong. I won't make excuses for what THIS outsider views as a weak, and unecessary action; but it may have not been just simple depression or Courtney that led him to self-destruction, (although even I would become pretty dammed depressed if I had to sleep with that ...thing).

geet73- My young Jedi ... Thank you for your word's! I give you my best wishes also ... Stick around; this just may get interesting for you ...

mshilarious- Wow! Free gift's equal good karma I always say ... Thanks man! That definately came out of the blue, and would be something that I may be interested in. I couldn't and wouldn't expect you to pay for shipping, so when I get some extra cash, I will definately hit you up. Consider me on your side in any future battle's or situation's that you may be in. Peace out to you ...


Oh yeah ... I put up two new older tunes for your consideration. I thought a change of pace was in order ...



A legend never dies ...
 
Sleeper that Dreams, I dunno, I just can't see you doing I-IV-V.

Caravan was your most interesting track, which I think demonstrates that you really need to find a vocalist with which to collaborate. Sorry man, your songwriting has some potential, but you can't sing. Nothing to be ashamed of, I can't either. Find somebody that can.
 
Seeker- I was meaning that in regards to these Mp3 style thread's. I studied them for a long time before I posted anywhere, and found that even the best material was left by the wayside on all sites; due to the reasons that I have mentioned before. In regards to "success" or "immortality" as it were ... Each person has a differen't purpose and take on life. I have swore oath's to certain entities to the effect that if I am to ever become "successful", that I would not squander the immense opportunity and responsibility. I love my children more than life itself; and becoming a parent was the catalyst for my supposedly insane desicion regarding my future. I do not think that any parent in their right mind can stand for any child on this earth to suffer as they do. I am much less interested in financial profit's or the result's of fame, than I am leaving the world a better place than when I entered it. Mabye this is the goal of reincarnation? To leave no ambition or potential opportunity to chance, or without utilizing it for the better of mankind. To some, this may be a dreamer's foolish notion; but to me it is something that is worthy of a lifetime's worth of devotion. There was a time when this would have seemed like idealistic nonsense to me, but that time has come and passed. I now understand my own fate, and that I am at "war' with anyone or anything that stands in my way. Thus, little things like sound quality, or waiting for the right time or outlet to market myself, seem to lose their merit. I have mentioned before the lost opportunities; and the lack of responsibility for it's actions, of the "baby-boomer" generation. Change is made first on a personal level, and I do not plan to repeat the mistakes that othere's including myself have made in the past. Sometimes the world isn't as nice or as orderly as we would like it to be. This is unfortunate; yet I believe it is mandatory for individualistic growth and comprehension. To put it plainly ... Sometimes the fight doesn't really begin until blood is drawn ...

Once again, comments regarding the newest songs would be appreciated ...

The world, although currently not even close to Utopian, is what we make it. Keep that in mind. I see you believe in karma, so you understand the outcome that aggressive behavior at the expense of others, sometimes unknowingly guised as ambition, can bring, especially the long-term effects in the world of tomorrow where your children and my children will live. Pushing towards a dream and thickening your skin to be able to take the hits people give, which I think is what you are doing, and not actually violating innocent people's emotions or lives with no regard, is different...and necessary in the way most of us live our lives. I see no problem in that if that is the context in which you speak. I've got to take a break from the computer, but will check out you new posted tunes and give objective feedback when I return.

p.s.--Blue Bear, PM'd you back from earlier.

I am merely a function and condition of the known universe. I have seen up-close and personal what it means to be a child that suffers. With this knowledge I have come to the conclusion that personal burdens or debt's from the result of the initiation of the upsettting of the balance of any lifeform's harmony are irrelevant to those who are innocent and in need. In simple terms; I am more than willing to inccur some negative energy to achieve the end result, or intention of a humble warrior's most current lifetime. If I have to throw myself on the grenade to win a war, then I will be the first in line. Once again I say; the amount of response speaks for itself. If any action draws attention to me; which will off-handedly result in my ultimate purpose, then I will proceed with the action(s) that you have all so patiently witnessed. In retrospect, if this is a lifeform's price for achieving it's goal; to place itself at risk in terms of progress in this existance or any other for that matter; then I will pay the price ... and already I have; do not doubt that ...

What is the end to the means? Time will tell ...
 
Then that is completely respectable. Offering oneself at no cost to others is noble. I understand the context of what you are saying now, and we share that view. Getting ready to check out your new posts.
 
The Sleeper That Never Dreams--the tracks were clearly audible and to my ears sat well with each other. Liked the tune...maybe a bit too in your face with the 'mother-bearing-children' concept contrasting the music setting. That 'out front' line could still be used to add a sense of shock to an unexpecting audience, but would be much more effective IMO with a softer vocal delivery. Everything sounded good levelwise to me.

Caravan--From your first post you rhetorically asked if the audience wanted to hear something that they didn't expect. Well, the first posted tunes are unique but don't quite surprise me as much as this one did. Literally, I wouldn't have expected that. Nice ambience and good recollection of traditional Middle Eastern with what sounded like a bit of southern Asia influence to create the mood. It worked. :)
