Just heard Caustic on Wjrr radio online and it was amazing! Totally different than anything i have heard them do. They are playing new songs on there all night, get there now!
There hasnt been updates on the webstie in quite a while now. I wanna know whats going on.
It really sucks at this current date in time, especially for a guy like me who has extreme aspirations to be a musician, being as things are, it seems that making a living just making music is becoming much more difficult then ever before. With CD sales being abysmal, and the Large labels failing due to not being able to keep up with the download and internet music markets. I mean i hate to say it, but i dont know that even if i had the best hard rock band in the world that i would be able to make a solid living right now. I mean ya its all about touring and the shows, but being as the record labels still need to get payed back the amount of money they dished out to promote the artist, it seems drastic that i would be able to make a living at it. Things just arent the way they used to be, i mean i will always write and produce music, dont get me wrong... But it will just have to make me money on the side unless i get EXTREMELY lucky, but it wont stop me from trying of course. I really respect guys like trivium for keeping their heads above water in a time like this, cuz i know financially its gotta be kinda rough for them. But until something changes, the whole "rockstar" approach will never be as glamorous as it seems. But it will always have fans, so i will always make it and listen too it. period.
My cover of strypers to hell with the devil (guitar solo), plus me improving on the end, i feel like i did it justice! So stryper fans, or not, check it out!
