That wasn't really an option but thanks for your input.

[shit stroll]

it's ashame zero is not an option.

[jmhdrumm3r17]

oh yeah i forgot this is the forum that "thrives on negativity."

[SSLYBY]

Or the song just sucks and the band is just kind of standing there playing instruments.

[SomedayTheFire]

0 is not negative.

[Burn That Shit]

What's up with those soccer moms in lawn chairs? What kind of show is this?

[XSTAYGOLDX]

[jmhdrumm3r17]

why? because the mic died at the start?

[vivatoto56]

This is pretty awful though...0

[screamoutmyname]

i give it a 3 or 4, for what it's worth... punk isn't supposed to sound great and i can tell you guys are still getting your bearings... the vocals are what need the most work, i'd say... but it's a decent start for you guys.

[fotocanvas]

I give it about a seven. I really like it. :]

oh yeah i forgot this is the forum that "thrives on negativity."

It thrives on negative things that allow the users to point out how horrid said things are.

Punk is an attitude and a statement, at least I think so, and the only thing you guys are showing on that stage is: a lack of energy, a shitty vocalist (which doesn't matter, because if the energy was there it would be fine), and a lack of understanding of what people want to see.

No dudes wake up and go: I really want to listen to subpar music played as if the musicians were bored out of their mind. You can keep the subpar music but..just look like you're having fun and everything about that video will be 9001 times better.

[jmhdrumm3r17]

Ok thanks a lot writeacliche.

[writeacliche]

Ok thanks a lot writeacliche.
I don't wanna be a dick dude but honestly. The more fun you have on that stage the more fun the audience is gonna have. I went through too many bands where my guitarists or vocalist wouldn't move a muscle and made us look like dead fish up there. Just have fun and if the music isn't sounding great, oh well, it's punk music and a fun live show pulls it all together.

Sorry if you didn't get it I was being serious when I said thanks you actually gave good advice.

3. being generous because you're probably a newish band
move around more on stage and try to look like you're having fun.
the real question is why so many people are watching
don't get mad at the negativity, its your fault for posting this on a website that has great music on it. we're directly comparing to people that are much older/wiser/better than you musically

[Truman122]

At least the babes in the front row are enjoying it. I mean that's what's important right?

[Rodeo]

a) self-promotion
b) practice more

[jmhdrumm3r17]

yeah our band started in late May and this show was in early July at our town fireworks after we came in the top 3 in our town battle of the bands in early June.

[jmhdrumm3r17]

Oh and one more question: what's the worst and what's the best part about the song? And what can we do to make it better?

[XSTAYGOLDX]

there really isn't a best part it all sounds like the same pile of butt rock gulosh

[Jefferson Rank]

If you're the drummer, you're doing fine.

Kill your singer.
