piratesownninjas Posted January 23, 2008 Share Posted January 23, 2008 (edited) So some of you guys know that I’m in a band. I’ve been playing music since I was 13 years old. I rarely, if ever have come to these boards asking people to listen to my band, or come to shows… I try to stay away from the band whoring thing at all costs. One of my projects is finally getting a chance to play on a huge show, but in order to make it to the final 20 bands that a judge will then decide on, we’ll have to be voted there… Basically we're up against other local bands in the Dallas area... We need votes to be considered. I just wanted to ask if at all possible for you huddlers to at least consider registering and potentially putting in a vote for my band to play this show. My band doesn’t write radio hits, and we’re not pretty… We’re just musicians who take songwriting seriously… We’re going up against a bunch of pretty boys and people who are “making music” to get chicks… Needless to say, that the cards are stacked against us because of myspace, and the whole not being prettyboys thing… I figure if anyone out there would take any notice, it might be my fellow huddlers… If you are so inclined, you can put a vote in here http://dtoc.battleofthebands.com/Redefine Thanks guys… -PON Edited January 23, 2008 by piratesownninjas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtomicCEO Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 Your music is too loud. Do you do any acoustic ballads? Maybe cover some Joan Baez? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes on the acoustic... Not so much on the ballad part. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could learn a thing or two from some really excellent musicians. Keep trying though. Practice makes perfect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AtomicCEO Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 Better than the original. You know... I was kidding about the whole Train thing, I was just trying to think of the band that would offend PON the most. But... that was actually a pretty damn good version of that song.

Thanks for the compliment though, I appreciate it. You know... I was kidding about the whole Train thing, I was just trying to think of the band that would offend PON the most. But... that was actually a pretty damn good version of that song. Yeah, I have a deep seeded hatred for Train, so you that was a nice choice...
