CarryTheRock Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 I'm a proud Uncle. Back when I was considered cool I inspired my nephew to take up guitar. The band he is in is racking up quite a following and they are getting a disc pressed now. Things are looking up for them. He plays guitar in the band (just turned 18). I'm more impressed with his playing than the singer...check them out. I was surprised he went this route because he plays a lot of classical...but the chicks don't dig classical...lol.

Footballjoe Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 I really don't like that style but I just figured I check it out. I did not care that much for the singing but some of the instrumental was good. Wish them well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Talked to him last night. At 18 he just found out he is having a baby (well his woman is). she vows it won't effect his music though.

CarryTheRock Posted March 4, 2007 Author Share Posted March 4, 2007 My advice came too late! at least it was with someone he has been with for more than a year...not a groupie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clubfoothead Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 I couldn't think of a worse combination than: guitar player in a band 18 year old girlfriend with kid on the way 1 booked show I didn't care for the music but he's pretty talented. I hated the vocals. Make sure he puts equal effort into plan B. I had to work all day yesterday then had 3 hours of volunteer work last night. I felt guilty making my 3 1/2 year old sit up until 11:00 last night so Daddy could get an hour with her. Time is precious. If he's in it for the beer, fun and p*ssy he should have a blast. If he's in it to support a kid, it's probably significantly less fun. I wish him the best of luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chavez Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 Not bad. They don't necessarily sound that distinctive, but that doesn't preclude success. Good luck to him! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish he would have went to school and played on the side. His more works a t a little private college where he could get tuition, maybe the baby coming he will still do that. As far as the one booked show, they just played one last wekend and are putting imte into the disk now. Thanks for the feedback guys.
