Live Review State of the Art
Hey this is Brett from State of the Art. Sorry for taking
so long to e-mail you.
Well there's four guys in this band, including myself:
Brett- vocals
Kasey- guitar
Thomas- bass
Evan- drums
We started this band when kasey and I
were in 9th grade, evan and tom in 8th. We were all best friends I
guess, and, well we love music. For about the first 5-6 months, we
weren't that great, and we would never play any shows. we just
constantly practiced and practiced, but probably way too much, and
everything was falling apart. Thats about the time Evan quit, and it
was four months before our first show. We werent really getting along,
so we were like "fine, whatever." But the headlining band (Till death
do us part) was like, "no way, you guys are young, but you're all
talented. You have to do this." So, I guess they talked us into getting
back into the show, and in one weekend we got this temporary drummer,
and learned 5 songs (well, 3 of our own, 2 Deftones covers) and we
through it all together and played a great show, and the crowd went
wild for us. We were crazy in shows, and after about 3-4 more, we were
like, we have got to get Evan back. Because, I mean, it
wasn't the same without our original drummer, and I guess we were all
like brothers. So, we asked Evan, and he came back. He attended all our
shows before with david, and he loved us, and knew we had improved a
whole lot. So he was definitly up for it. So, to make a long story
short, we practiced our asses off with Evan, and we were ready to just
play the most wild shows, and playing shows is what we did. Our last
show was at Tomcats, and thats where I met you. I guess were just
looking for more gigs whenever to play. E-mail back for anything else.
