    I've been doing exams since I last chatted to you + I've went into my final year of school. Almost Summer holidays, wish they would come soon. But other than that, I've been quite bored. Haven't had a proper gig since April, but I do have Kings of Leon in 11 days

    You organised a festival!? Wow, you must be pretty big Haha. Got any videos of your band?


    It wasn't that hard to organize the fest. Finding a venue to take us on was the hard part, but our drummer works for a church (as a janitor) that has a big room attached to it- basically just a huge recreational room- that they're letting us use for free the day of the festival. We've booked 4 bands, including ourselves, for the bill, and each member of each band will pay $12 to put towards the massive staging we've rented. A back-lit projection screen will hang behind most of the stage, so we can do a live video feed or whatever graphics we want, and admission will be $2 solely to donate to local food pantries. We won't be making any money off the gig- just a great way to play for a ton of people.

    It's a lot of fun, really And yeah, no videos of the band yet- we haven't had any shows yet and our practices aren't worth taping. I can PM you the setlist though if you care to know what we're playing.

    Doesn't sound that hard actually. Sounds great though, wish I could be in a band and actually do something like that. Practically everyone that can play an instrument is in a band at my school, so it's hard to find a band. May just turn out to be a one man band, one day

    Please do. I'm interested to see what you're playing. And remember, post the videos up here after the festival!
  3. I also want to be in a band, me and my friends need to stop discussing it and start doing it...


  4. To both of you...sing and play guitar at the same time, and you're golden. Open mic nights are everywhere...I drunkenly participate in one on Thursdays around here I don't generally play my guitar there though. I get up and just howl along with the guy who plays there every week.
  5. I love singing. It's just such a joyous thing to do!
  6. Just got home from school Had a meeting for my own student company now its almost done. Also my school year is almost done, just some exams in two weeks and than its vacation time

    So how are you all?
  7. Just bought Spotify Premium, should be great

    Anyone else have Spotify?
  8. Good night forum, I still have to get up early in the mornings for a few more mornings...
  9. I think my all time, favorite song EVER, U2 or otherwise, would have to be "Under Pressure" by Queen and David Bowie. Bold statement. Just might also be true.

    Great song!!

    But I think its really, really hard to choose my or a favourite song of all time, but Stairway To Heaven, Im On Fire by Bruce and Streets are in my top 5 for sure.
  11. I gotta go too.
    Tomorrow I start my exams, and this year they're pretty decisive. Please wish me the best of lucks! I won't be around here until late evening so take care until then.

    Love you all
  12. Good luck then!!!! You can do it
