Wow. This just turned into newbie central. In order to get more traffic to this board, I am now going to rag on EVERY SINGLE MUSIC STYLE EVER CREATED.

First off, bluegrass....

Anyway, I wish that I could have seen this show. From what alot of people have said, it was a rocking show. I also wish that I could have added to the band list....since I wasn't able to be there, my band Barefoot At The Opera wasn't able to play. Maybe we could have added a little bit more diversity in musical picks and such. But still, glad to hear that it was a good night.

Musickid, I'm really not going to say anything, since I talk to you every day, but the thing is, I was talking to Titan after the high school Battle Of The Bands, and he gave me the same advice that he gave you.

And it's really really good advice.

Take that into account. When the music that you are playing is something you believe in, and all the rest is crap in your opinion, of course you're going to be pissed. But then again, the YMCA judges aren't going to have the same opinion as you.

One thing that I was kinda pissed off about was the whole prize thing. Now, don't anyone dare say that I am in this for the money, or the prizes, because I am NOT, but it seemed a bit lopsided when I heard that A Thousand Seasons took home $200 after getting first place.

Thing is, when we won the 3rd BotB at the Y, we took home a ukelele (that's kinda...well, it's crap), and music writing sheets. I think the most expensive thing that we got was....I don't know, a guitar stand.

Just seems a little lopsided. Whatever. I'm not seething with rage right now, far from it, just feeling kinda cheated.
