Members Flying_Milkman Posted April 7, 2008 Members Share Posted April 7, 2008 Got to open up for a FANTASTIC band names the Wrecking on Saturday night. Had a great show, played to a great crowd and got a bunch of further gig offers. Great night! Hope you enjoy the shots. The band is named nerdrock - in case you're wondering.

That's one of my favorite, the other guy on stage is my buddy Matt (M.A.P.) we did a rap song with him. That guy can spit. M.A.P. Myspace Man, I wish I could spit.

Members Flying_Milkman Posted April 7, 2008 Author Members Share Posted April 7, 2008 Nice. i used to be in a rock rap band back in the day (like 9 years ago), that was kinda fun to play.We're definetly not rock/rap. It was more of a collaboration that we came up with oer the last few weeks. But it was fun to play.We're more of a edgey effects band, I'm looking to try and incorporate alot more backing tracks and premade beats into the music (hence nerdrock ), but alot of our more popular songs are straight up rock - and I'm OK with that to.

Members Flying_Milkman Posted April 7, 2008 Author Members Share Posted April 7, 2008 Church much?Yep Actually it used to be a bar but it was transformed (in just about every form of the word) into a church. It's a two level viewing with a floor downstairs and a "balcony" upstairs.Plus it's a great place to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually I run the youth group at church, and we realized that there wasn't a positive place for the kids to be on Friday's and Saturday's. So once every few months (I'd like to do it more often but you know) we have a major act come up and play. So far we've had the Wrecking, Alabaster Box and Holy Fire come play. The Wrecking however was something else. Check out there myspace if you get a chance. The Wrecking Plus they were awesome guys, sat down and talked to everybody that came. It was few hours after the show before we actually could start tearing down. And the kids are in a place that's positive. Really win-win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I find that Strats and Tele's offer those in abundance - so why switch from something I know, ya know? That's a tough sentence to read ^. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
