Pretty much share the way you feel about FB, so no probs from this quarter.
As I said before, my only reason for keeping my account with them is that it's the easiest way for me to connect and keep up with a widely scattered collection of close friends. Mostly, I find FB annoying as heck and a total sellout from how it began.
Won't even get into data sales and privacy issues.

my partner has one for the same reason. for her it is a way to stay connected with people she has met while traveling the world. friends in south america, europe, vietnam - and i totally respect that about it. were i in her situation i would probably have kept mine too. i used to use it because i was a fairly involved musician and FB is a great way to promote shows, and rally for benefits, etc. we used to play for environmental benefits and human rights benefits (ie anti mountain top removal benefit was a huge hit and tons of fun to play at) so every avenue of recruitment we could take was critical. FB played an important and vital role in our success.

now, i'm a hermit - miss my music would love to play again but it's tough when you've got a full time salary job as innkeeper. when i left TN and that life behind me for the time being i got rid of FB forever

Should be!

Sorry for those of you that don't use FB. FB is easy to use because we have a randomizer that allows us to pick a winner easily...

Sounds like we may have similar social attitudes/politics.
I'm also a musician, but usually only ever played small, local gigs - solo artist, 99% original material. No one cared much if you weren't a band, it seemed.
What's your instrument?

awesome
don't get me wrong though - all our shows/benefit shows are at a small and local level. the most i ever played for was approx 600 people at a local festival. outside of that our shows were small though some of the benefits wound up with lots of people attending but not necessarily all during our performance
I play bass - currently own an acoustic 5 string, and an electric fretless fender jazz bass. used to own a marcus miller edition fender jazz would kill to have it back. what do you play my friend?

PS would love to hear some of your music. i have utmost respect for solo artists

Always was attracted to bass, but didn't go that direction.
I play acoustic guitar, primarily.
Couple of nice Martins (including a '75 D-35 and a limited edition from 2001, I think. Original owner of both) and an acoustic/electric Ovation for knocking about, camping and that I'll let others play ( learned the hard way with my D-35 not to pass it around).
Also have a late 70s Ibanez Iceman. Old solid body electric that Weighs a ton!
I also love to play hand drums - Dumbek, Ashiko, jembe.
Passable on mandolin.
Music is part of my soul and fuels my spirit.

 

[Soignee]

I've got a Fakebook account...I'll play!

Plastic I have become!

Hope I got this whole thing right. I don't really use FB.

BTW, I'm Hudson Valley on FB...you'll figure it out...

 

[Zanaspus]

Of course it has to involve Facebook

Good luck to all those who enter!

Ditto.....

 

[Fuzzy Bruce]

Done, and thanks for the opportunity to win.

Nice brother - we should form an NT band. You could record some hand drum and guitar tracks, I could lay down some bass, The Don can lay down some vocals

That's an interesting proposal. Hmmmm...

 

[Sloth Tonight]

Wakonda in Rhawanda
The Virus in Seattle
Frenilla in Uganda
Sawdust upon the Cattle
'Otha day I saw a rattle snake
Slithering across the mucky field
In its cluth a REO NT wieldin time to bake
In an eel I cop a feel

The Don can you come up with a good vocal melody for that? our first single off the charts

 

[roxynoodle]

I'm a guitarist, too

Look FTS,
I like you, but before we score the lyrics, I think they need a wee bit O'refining.

 

[Sloth Tonight]
