kinda like Michale Graves solo stuff, without all the death and tie-in stuff to murder cases.

Thanks very much d00d. Those videos were all recorded last summer. We have a great deal of new material, but we haven't had the time to record videos of the new songs (I'm away at college while the singer's still in my hometown). I like to think our new stuff is better than what we have on the youtube channcel. Recording and writing will resume as soon as I get home for the summer. :thumb:

I want to apologize if I seemed hostile earlier in the thread, I thought you had watched my videos and were making a comment on the way I dress - hence my confusion. :laugh2:

The reference to my avatar photo completely went over my head.

You're cool in my book. :thumb:

I'm usually so drunk that I miss all the hostility ;)

but really, I do dig yer stuff.

be SURE to let me know when there's more.

me and the gal will be spreading the word during tomorrow's morning coffee, via facebook.
dunno if it'll help, but it can't hurt, right?

I'll definitely let you know. :thumb:

We want to get a full band going, even if it's only for the summer. We have a bass player lined up for sure, but the problem is finding a reliable drummer in my hometown. That's actually the reason we were in the acoustic format - we couldn't find any other band members! We have a couple of months before I go home, so I'm hoping we'll be able to find one before then. The singer's working on it now, and if we get desperate we'll put up a craigslist ad and invite strangers.

We did record a full-band demo over the summer; I played the extra instruments and we used a drum machine. I'm not entirely happy with the way the demo turned out (the guy we recorded with was a turbo-douche), but the songs are available for free download on our reverbnation account. Overall I think it's a good first recording attempt. If we can pull it off we'll be recording another demo at an actual studio this upcoming summer - hopefully a better product. :) Check out the recordings we have if you're interested! :thumb:

you my friend are an ASSHOLE!! If you have nothing positive to say then shut the **** up you ****ing jerk! Looking good on stage does not mean you cant play, it means you are an entertainer and not just walking off the street. People pay to see my band and I give them my best EVERY time. I dont want to look like the guy at the bar drinking before I go on. I dont wear make up or spandex, but I want to look like the band, nothing wrong with that..... and I can play and sing enough to back it up you weak little ****

:applause: :applause: :applause: :applause: :applause:

I'm not a pro, I'm a hobbyist but..................if I were to go on stage!!!!!!!!!!!!! The way I dressed on stage would make Marilyn Manson, Alice Cooper and David Bowie look like a couple of conservative Congressmen and, that would be just the opening set. When you hit that stage it is a show. You got to be careful with that however because of what Shakespeare said about all the world!

You never get a second chance to make a first impression. You can carve that into stone.
Stage clothes? You can bet your ass that my shirt, pants, and boots make a statement.
Ozzie sent Les Claypool packing on looks alone. Stupid move on Ozzies part musically, but a good move on his part image wise. Les Claypool looks too...um,... normal...even if he is the best bass player on the planet.
If your audience can't identify with you, your looks, and you music...then you are dead in the water homie.

I like to wear something cool on stage and I mean that in 2 ways. The lights are hot and sometimes they are too close to your head. I often go shirtless under a thin suit jacket and wear a hat, which I never do off stage.

If it's winter, I can wear thicker stuff.

I used to wear a lot of white back in the day.

I dress how ever I feel like. Nothing too strange but enough to get in trouble :)
