| It is easy to get pretty jaded from the bands that were "riding Three Doors Down's coat tails." I'm sure there has always been the "We are going to be the bast band ever" jack-asses, but I know it use to be pretty bad when 3DD made it big. Everyone had to play the same formula rock (of course their band was "faster and harder"). It's good to have dreams, and damn, if you can't believe your own hype who will? But come on, it gets old when every band who plays Godsmack covers tells you how they are "making it to the big time." Not in this area buddy. Find a bigger city where people will buy your crap and maybe.
I just miss all the bands that did it for fun and didn't give a crap. You can still work hard towards your goals and have fun with it to. If you get a little luck and make it somewhere, fine, if not keep your day job and enjoy your music on the side.
Sorry for ranting on your thread, enjoy your gigs. If you can have a little fun and make money doing it more power to you. That is what it is really about, not selling out Roseland Ballroom. |
