    Who checks out there local music scene

    Minus jsnail . I'm just curious. I've spent the last two years doing so. Kinda fun at first. Lots of local talent around you I bet. Of course you have to get comfortable in bars. At least here you do.

    Depends on where your locality is whether or not you have a music scene worth checking out. Now of course, I'm in Hell and all the best musicians end up here eventually.

    I've checked quite a lot of local bands over the past 15 years, where I live and anywhere I've traveled to. Some of them would kick many a famous band. Those who would are professionals who fail to find bigger audiences in a wider zone than the local stages, either because they aren't businessmen enough or because they lack self-confidence. Or whatever other reason.

    I started a very similar thread a while ago, but got strictly no bumping.

    http://www.rotharmy.com/forums/showt...s-in-your-area!

    I just meant to get folks here "promote" musicians they thought were worth it, starting with a few ones I knew so that other posters would post theirs.

    I f'got 'bout it.

    For a minute I was in the scene down here in the early 2000's, but I haven't been into it for a while. From what I gather there isn't much up this way as far as original rock music goes. There seems to be a bit of something happening in Miami, but fuck that shit, I'm not going that far south.

    Here is one of my local bands that are doing it right. I wanted to manage them but they took off fast. Hope that link works. Dirty Crush. Talented kids.

    Well, if a Devil remembers correctly, FORD actually saw some bands playing in living rooms and county fairs in his home town who later topped charts and sold out stadiums. So maybe he would know?

    Not sure why you are asking me though.....

    Not bad, but it's not really my thing. I don't dig on that vocal style/delivery. Where are these guys from?

    Not feeling it...

    Not that they suck or anything...

    It's a decent demo of a not so good song...

    I wouldn't know where FORD lives, but I'm in the 666th floor penthouse suite of Beelzebub Towers myself.

    Hey, I'm a Devil, not a comedy writer. Perhaps I should ask Richard Pryor, Robin Williams, and Sam Kinison to write me some material?

    No, it's because he can't believe anybody falls for as much propaganda as you do. George told me that he used to listen to Alex Jones for a laugh on occasion when he was up there on Earth. But he never took the shit seriously.

    I'm sure there are some decent local bands here these days in NJ, but unfortunately, no scene to speak of at the moment. One of the last best originals clubs, Maxwell's in Hoboken, closed it's doors a couple of years ago. That really sucked. Still had hopes of playing there some day. There are places like the Stone Pony and the Starland Ballroom that will bring in the known 80's and 90's bands that are hanging on by a thread, and maybe, just maybe, a local talent will have had the good fortune of securing an opening slot and play to damn near no one. Hence, sadly, not much of a scene. Cover bands are big. Yippee.

    My friend's kid is into this local band called Cloud Nothings. Well, the singer/songwriter is from Cleveland, but now lives with his girlfriend in Paris or something. Like that makes his art more credible.



    Couple summers ago we went to this little club to see them. They drew a good sized crowd. I'm not exactly sure what I saw or if I liked it. It may have been the first time I said "What the fuck did I just see?"

    Even better was one of the opening bands, Protomartyr, out of Detroit. The band is setting up, bunch of young kids, and there's this older (than the band) guy in slacks and a jacket standing around. I'm thinking "get Dad off the stage" and it turns out he's their singer. And they were fucking LOUD. I sat there pretty much WTF their whole set.

    Both these videos are from '14, we saw them in August of '13. First things that popped up on YouTube.

    Best part of the show: This club has a thrift shop downstairs, I found a vinyl promo copy of Crazy From The Heat for $5.
