do any of you guys have a favorite local band that hasnt made it "big" but should??

Several years ago, there was a local band in Seattle called A*buse*ment Park that I reviewed for a music magazine, got to see their shows for free and had tons of fun, they were wild, their music was unique, not grunge, they were very theatrical. They moved down the coast when nothing happened up here. They were TWISTED!!!!:crazy: :rock: :guitar: :guitar: :rock:

I used to like this band called streetnix and there is a local band called natural slection they play songs done by other bands like
3 doors down, creed ect.. they're really good they are coming to our school dec.20 thats are last day before xmas break!

yeah. my band! Were deciding on a name now. our bassist cant play bass and we have no songs and we suck ass... But I wanna be famoose anyway so we aughta make it big. AND what do you think... The name "Death to Executive Board (DTEB)" (the exec board are the seniors on student council) "Death to Seaniors Everywhere(DTSE)" "Down with Exec. Board (DWEB)" or "The Angry Fetus"... of the "The AngerED fetus"??? I hate the fetus ones... actually I hate them all. but i sing AND play guitar so I have no say in anything...

my friend is starting a band with her sister...all she needs is a guy drummer...lol the names gonna be "Flashing Boy Scouts" :lol:

yes. the almighty julie approves as well.

well...its becoming popular now, but before Dispatch was jus a local band, and same with Guster

My Dad's band Westwind everywhere they play they have a big crowd. Well there was this one time my dad's band could of made it big Kellie Hake (Country Singer) asked them if they wanted to be her opening act on her tour but they turned her down and I was like but dad that would of been so cool. And the lead signer of my dad's band is trying to go to Nashville and make a CD.

Oh I almost forgot 12 pearls there a christian band and they do have music on the radio well only in Nebraska and they have a CD but you can only buy it from them. They are trying to make it big and I hope they do there really good.

ya to reply to my own post...ahhhh i love local bands...especially lucky boys confusion, the dog and everything and the sandbox kids...bands seem so much better when they havent become famous and will just sit around and talk to u after the show...

Another cool band is my cousin's band:Portrait of Poverty!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My cousin plays drums in it, and they ROCK!!!!!!!!!:rock: :guitar: :guitar: :rock:

And I'm NOT just saying that because he's my cousin, they opened for the Dead Kennedys in March at Graceland in Seattle, and the crowd went NUTS!!!!!!!!

Domestic Problems is a band that had a really good song a few years ago called My Only Love. They played it all the time here but I'm really not sure if it was a hit anywhere else. They did have a Christmas album last year that I really wanted to get, but I never got around to it.

VIBRANT GROOVES , they're all seniors that go to ma hs.. yay! They're really good, they sound like a cross between the Red Hot Chilli peppers and incubus. :D
