Rock Opera

As of five years ago, the description of rock was broadened a little bit more.  First came Black Death, a band that showed a unique choir, in a rock atmosphere.  Then came Luca Turilli; a band that set a new pathway to your Ipod.  They take 10 amazing singers, and combine it with the hard hitting notes of the rock band.  It almost feels like you are in a race.  This new genre is sure to get more and more popular as it continues.

Who, Who are you?

Have you ever seen the TV show CSI?  Well if you have, you probably know who these guys are.  The Who, an English Rock Band, was popular in the late 60's-70's.  They are the makers of the intro song to many TV shows including CSI.  They have music that hits the ears of a wide variety of people.  Also, one of their best known performances was in 2010 at the Super Bowl.  Lately they have been on an up and down journey, but I hope that is soon to change with their new album coming out.

My Start

Back in 2009 is when I started playing guitar.  Rhett, Cameron, and Chance came to me and asked if I would like to be in a band with them.  That sparked a light in my head saying, "Hey I may be famous someday."  We didn't really start taking it seriously until this year.  We got a new drummer that was willing to commit.  After that, it has gone uphill; we even learned covers of songs in a week.  Mainly we make our own songs ("Wait," "Alone," "Best Thing," and "Flag Flies,") but recently we learned "Rock You Like A Hurricane" and "Summer of '69."  It has really been a fun experience, and I'm looking forward to the rest of my career.

Fair Weekend


Everyone loves when fair week comes around.  My band played, as well as the Justin Lane Band.  I think that the Justin Lane Band brought a new view to country.  They talked to us and gave us tips.  Also, they told us if we ever need help to call them.  This was amazing.  Not only were they an awesome band, but they gave us moral support too.  I think that more bands could act in this manner.

Small Bands

Around the world there are probably thousands of bands.   Some are good, and some are not.  The band I'm in is one of these small bands.  People usually just downgrade small bands as nothing.  Usually people tend to do this because they think if they're not famous they're not worth it.  Many are not famous because of one simple thing, money.  The cost of playing in different towns, or even recording new songs is very expensive($150 Dollars an Hour.)  All in all, I think sometimes people overlook smaller bands.  Here are some pictures of my band and an article about prices.http://www.passionrecordingstudio.com/pricing.htm
