<![CDATA[Hi. We are a progressive, up-and-coming rock band in Columbia. We have put together a great group, consisting of a bass player, a drummer, an awesome lead guitar player, and an incredible lady singer. Most of us are in our 30's. We are concentrating on original songs, with a few covers mixed in. We are not molding our sound after any other established band, but think along the lines of Evanescence for an idea of what we sound like. We are seeking an experienced rhythm guitar player or keyboard player that is willing to practice one night, every other week, for three hours. We are currently in talks to play a few venues around the area. However, it will not be all of the time. If you are this person, let us know, and we would love to have you come out to see if we gel. Hope to hear from you soon. ]]> |

<br>
In celebration of the 4 year anniversary of the Almost Famous Show, Verseus Entertainment Group decided to offer a forum to discuss the Evolution of Urban Music. VEG plans to bring more awareness to the foundation of urban music by inviting legendary music professionals to dialogue with some of today’s chart toppers. The interaction will serve to inspire and enlighten aspiring artists, producers, and music executives in attendance as well as to educate consumers. The Almost Famous Forum will provide practical information about the music business and a platform for successful and legendary speakers to share their individual experiences. There is no blueprint for success in the music industry, but those who laid the foundation can certainly offer examples to follow.
<br>
<br>
The forum precedes the 2nd Annual Almost Famous Awards Show, which is a celebration of excellence within the emerging community of rappers, singers, music producers, DJ’s and more. The awards show will honor those who’ve demonstrated an impeccable grind matched with exceptional talent throughout the year. In addition, “They Can Make You Famous Awards” will be presented to several previous judges of the show over the past 4 years to reward them for their tireless efforts and success in molding superstars. ]]> |

<![CDATA[I don't know if you know how the music industry works...but in order for major record labels to even consider taking a look at you as a new artist, they want to see that you have a fan base and that you have sold records...i.e. you know how to market yourself.
<br>
<br>
Here in lies my problem. I'm one guy with a voice and a guitar...I need a country band to back me for live shows, and recording my album. Now if you play lead guitar, bass guitar, fiddle/violin, or steel guitar...please drop me a line, and lets work on putting a band together. In other words, piecing a band together is fine with me...if you only play one of the instruments above, still contact me, and we'll talk. I'm very goal oriented, and take this business very seriously. I honestly think I have what it takes to be a major label recording artist, and am going to pursue it to best of my ability. I don't care about age, only how well you know your instrument. I have a video on youtube, so check me out: in the search field on the youtube website, type in "summer starts tonight" I should be the first video to come up. Check me out...pass it on...let me know what you think.
<br>
<br>
Thanks,
<br>

<br>
<br>
Are you someone, who perhaps in an earlier life, was in a band playing 60’s, 70’s, perhaps some 80’s, pop/rock/blues music?
<br>
<br>
You would like to play with other like-minded musicians (who happen to be probably 40 or over) on weekends primarily; much like people get together to play golf, poker, and watch sports on TV?
<br>
<br>
You can play complete songs, and would consider yourself at least on an “intermediate” level?
<br>
<br>
You are not necessarily interested in forming a “band” as such, but would rather get together with other like-minded players, maybe up to several times a month, to work up tunes for the shear fun of it?
<br>
<br>
Does any of this sound like you? If so, send me an email. Thanks!
