Got musicality of any kind to boast of? That's basically all I care about- the only thing that drags my stinking carcass thru the day. Literally.

( I'm back in New York by the way )
I'm in a band. It's a punk-rock band. We've just been playing around New York, and want to move to some place less crowded. Because to be honest, not too many people like us yet.
We are a three man group, we all sing. I switch through Lead Guitar, to bass, and even drums sometimes.

So you know of any place where it's less crowded to play?

Our band's called

Covered in Crimson Sin, and we haven't recorded crap, but I'll try to do something within the week to get a song without showing my face lol. I'm glad you all told me about the gender ratios.

WELL. My first pieces of advice: DO NOT, no matter what happens, go to Seattle or anywhere in California to attempt to become hits. Go somewhere like Phoenix- it's a big city, yea, but it's not the over-populated band-hub that Seattle is, and people like to hear about bands that come out of somewhere that's not all ready thought of as glamorous [such as CA]. Or you could check out Baltimore. It has a thriving music scene, but it's not too crowded there. Yet. And it's just a hop and a skip away from DC, another good venue. Not all politics, there. Lotsa tourism, which means lots of traps, which means lots of opportunities for gigs. I personally suggest you stay away from the midwest; you'll just get stuck out there. Denver, Tampa- OOH. Any city of decent size in SETexas would be a good place to start up. The devastation from the hurricane leaves a lot of people needing a distraction from rebuilding what they lost: in moves up-and-comings.

This is all assuming your band is any good. ;) -which is me hinting that I wanna HEAR you-

As soon as I record something without my head, and my other friends. Maybe I could get someone to tape a video in a public bar for me. Who knows. You'll get that tape as soon as possible.

I just told my band-mates, we're going to Phoenix! We might be their in a few days, as soon as I figure out where Phoenix is in Arizona.

Ever heard of Noothgrush? I think they're crap. Please don't tell me they're an influence...
So what type of music does your band play? [By head, do you mean frontman?]
...Phoenix is the capital of Arizona. You shouldn't have to search for it- there's a major airport. If you're flying, your plane will land in Phoenix. If you're driving, there is no possible way you will miss the signs pointing you towards Phoenix. If you divide Arizona in half with a line going from right to left, Phoenix is smack in the middle of the bottom half. [It's right on the line if you divide it with a line going from bottom to top.]

Never heard of Noothgrush. We were actually influenced by bands like The RAMONS, CBGB and omfug, ACDC, Black Sabbath, Alkaline Trio, MCR and Green Day.

CBGB & OMFUG was a club, rite? I thought it shut down in 06. Correct me if I'm wrong.
Big fan of the Ramones. You like the Clash or the Pixies, any?

It was the beginning of punk rock, we were influenced by what went on inside. It was actually closed down in 05.
Sex Pistols, clash, Pixies, Jethro Tull, The Frustrators, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Jimmy Eat World.

Believe it or not, I'm not real keen on RHCP. Dunno why. I think it's 'cause, to me, all the songs sound the same. Sorta like U2. There are songs that I like, but I just never got into the band because I didn't feel like they were great musicians.
Now The Killers, Coldplay, Radiohead: those are some musicians. Any band who can dabble in style, pick up new instruments as songs and albums require and don't limit themselves to a certain "sound-" now that's a good band.
Guns'N'Roses was a great band too- haven't heard their new stuff, I'm afraid too. But they came out with amazing, REAL stuff at a time where it was all glam rock from guys who'd never spent a day on the streets and hadn't touched a needle 'til AFTER they'd written twenty songs about heroin.
Def Leppard is amazing: originator of the power ballad and the catchy rock riff; they always sell out and never book venues they don't think they can fill. Good businessmen, I look up to them. Definite performers and amazing songwriters.

Of course I'm in love with Placebo, but I won't say anything about them: I'm so biased I can't talk straight about that band. [It's my favorite.]

Soul Asylum is another great one. If you haven't heard of 'em, you need to tune in.

Paramore is crap with a manager.
MCR is underrated. I like them a lot, America's just gotten too "preppy" for them. They have a good, marketable sound, if a little too mixed recently. The Black Parade was one of the best modern attempts at a rock opera I have ever heard.
I only like old Green Day, I dunno why. New Green Day turns me off. Too "produced."
Jimmy Eat World... I had never heard much of them until recently, when I randomly got a ton of blasts from all directions. Weird directions. But they're good, I like them. Diverse.

What other bands do you like? And why?
