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.

I've always had fun and gave a crap, but getting signed wasn't on the top of my list. FUN was.
We write originals, but its no where near godsmack...LOL
Who cares?
Who cares about what 3DD has done? Its been great for them and opens the area up somewhat to talent seekers, and A&R reps.
But you HAVE to have a large local following, then regional, thus crawling before you can walk.
I give 3DD kudos for their hardwork, and success.
They had what it took, and were at the right place at the right time with the right manager,songs, and sound.They are still running with it. More power to them.
If you try to copy them you have no originality so you might as well be a cover band making a few dollars in whatever venue you are packing out.
There is success at all levels.
I'm always successful.
I feel good about what I play and how I play.
Who cares that its a cover song...I put my own flare to it.
Heck my last band had worldwide airplay, but we never got signed.
We dominated nothing.
Dude you can rant on this post anytime.
I agree with most everything you had to say there.
David, when I was 14 I thought you were a bass god. You were an inspiration to me.
