I would love to be in a band.cause it s#@ks playin on poor quality back tracks.and it gets old after a while.u need ur band mates IMO thats what brings out the best of ya.i remember being in a band back when.and there was nothing like it. As far as my gear goes,the detective i spoke with told me to hold on tight,they still have to check all pawn tickets ,and if one was pawned which thats what there hoping for.BUSTED.so i haven't let go of hope,i want mine.again great opportunity for you maggior.
