  • What's your favorite underrated band?

    Here is where you can spread the word of your favorite underrated band. I'd like to hear them!

    My favorite underrated band is definitely Locksley. They're incredible, and they started getting some attention back in 2007, but since then, they haven't had as much luck, it seems like.

    Here's a ridiculously catchy song by them called The Whip. you might recognize it because it's been on a billion commercials.

  • what are good REAL rock clothing stores?

    my friend and i were thinking about changing our looks. we're both girls, and we're both in a band. we want clothes that'll look good on stage, and that'll look good on us, but we don't want any of that hardcore, leather and studs ****. we don't want the hipster style, and we sort of like mod style, but it's too expensive for us. do you have any suggestions? if you don't have any store that fits that description, then what's your favorite clothing store?

  • How do i let go someone in my band?

    We have been frequently having problems with an egotistical guitarist, and he's not very good in at what he does. He doesn't take constructive criticism, he doesn't listen to our ideas, and he isn't grateful for any help we've received. He's a good friend at times, but it becomes too stressful to deal with him because he is also overly emotional and stubborn. He will not listen to the information we've received from very valid sources and listens to what his dad says instead. We have no idea how to let him go, because he's very passionate about the band, although he doesn't put much work into it. He is easily replaceable, and we know multiple people who could fill the spot better than him. We don't want him to become depressed, and we want to hurt him the least amount possible. Does anyone have any ideas of how to go about doing this? Thanks for your time :)

  • What type of personality/skills do you need to get into the music business?

    except the obvious ones, like knowing how to play a couple instruments and having knowledge of music itself. I'm thinking about interviewing for this job as a booking manager at this place near me, and it's like a rock music club, but for younger audiences. my sister knew someone who took that job in high school and she met a band there and they liked her, and they took her on tour to meet a bunch of famous people in the business. i'm not expecting this to happen, but i'd like to take the job just so i can hang out with other musicians, but still get the business end of music. i think i might have to work on some things first. i'm very shy, which i know isn't helpful when you need to push your way around in the world of music. i don't really let my spunkiness show, so i look plain, so i'm thinking i should take more risks. what other things would you suggest i work on to get the job? do you have any advice i could use? thanks.

  • Why is my computer really slow and keeps freezing? How do i fix it?

    My computer is really slow lately, and if i open too many windows, it freezes completely. if i try to open itunes at all, the whole thing just freezes. my computer just recovered from the Quick Defrag virus, just one of the viruses where a fake program pops up and tells you that your computer is messed up and you need to buy this product to fix it. i ran scans and checked all my files, and i'm pretty sure it's gone now. because my computer's been acting up, i ran a lot of scans, different types and all, but nothing is working. i used SuperSpyware scanning, MalwareBytes, and Spyware Doctor. what should i do?

  • what would be a great drumset for me?

    well i'm pretty good at drums, and i have a band, but i have the worst drumset ever. it costed my mom 300 bucks and i got it when i was in 3rd grade. now, 6 years later, i still have that set, and it's the worst sounding set ever. i'm saving up for a new one, but i can't afford one much over 1000 dollars. i play rock music, and i want a set that would sound good, but i could use at gigs too. i want it to last me a while. i'm not asking for a specific set, but if you have one in mind, that'd be super awesome. just like, what brand do you think would be good, what type of wood, stuff like that would be much appreciated. thanks!

  • movies about/ with characters in bands?

    i've realized i like movies a lot better when bands are in them. not like, famous band documentarys, but like, the characters are in a band. recently i watched Scott Pilgrim, and i also watched Get Him to the Greek, and i really liked both, but they really aren't similar. any good movies with bands in the plot? it'd be cool if it was funny too...

  • what do you think of our band's cover?

    we covered Sweet Child O Mine at a gig a couple weeks ago. we were quite a bit above tempo, but i thought our cover was still decent for such a complicated song. what do you think? we love all feedback! and we're pretty young, too....

  • for the good of my band, should i approach this guy?

    there's this guy who's actually in the all american rejects, but i've heard that he also produces music, that i'll be meeting next week. i get to play on stage with him. i was thinking about approaching him with a demo cd of our band and inviting him to come see us play a couple days later. i don't know if this would be too bold, considering we're only around 14 years old. should i? and if i do, what should i say to him?
