Take it from me it's better to try and fail than think later in life "What if?" I know someone who's lad played football for the reserves at Bolton,,he's now out of football and in full time work,but he can't turn round and wonder what if? So if your in a Band or what ever go for it! Life's a one shot deal and most never get second chance's!':)

Re: Local Band gets signed
 

Hey,yep you're right. I've been writing lyrics (and melodies) for a long time now and having recently formed a band last year I was extremely proud to have my lyrics made into songs. The fact that 'mulstonian' says he is getting somewhere (which for him... did I actually say you wouldn't? It was you that text me that :s) but anyway, it doesn't bother me that if I don't get signed through our manager because I still know myself that I have written those lyrics and made some pretty gd songs, which is more important... And mulstonian,saying you're 'better' doesn't make the slightest impact on anyone's judgement. Robdun24 - we have a couple of tracks recorded if you wanna hear, we're a rock/pop band named Established - unsigned and doing gigs this Summer. If you go on www.soundclick.com and search 'Established (UK)' you will be able to download a piano version of one of our latest songs :)

hiya everyone! im in a band with chelle n like im proud of wat we av achieved which is producing some xcellent songs frm melodies written by chelle n i am glad liam is gettin gigs cos its wat he wants to do. i jus don't agree that he is "better" than us because he does totally different songs to us and doesnt write his own stuff apparently.

Re: Local Band gets signed
 

Yep chibble, if Liam wants to do gigs then he can do them. It has nothing to do with us or trying to get 'one over' on us, which is what he's probably trying to do this for :s. We don't have the same aims as you,we don't wanna get a manager we're unfamiliar with and be sent songs from other artists' writers etc... we write,produce and record all our own stuff and that's more important to us than getting someone else's. We already have a manager atm but we are waiting til we have a wide variety of recorded,perfected tracks until we will consider ourselves ready to send them off to any labels.

Re: Local Band gets signed
 

soundclick wont play the songs...i tried to D/L the mp3 but couldnt because it said page not found....

Chibba let others be the judge, after all if sucess is in mind this is what makes sucess. I cant have this view( i tried) to love my own songs in that way, but its hard for me to do so........

hmm I dunno why the download won't work Rob. You on MSN? I could send you one over that, and as of yet I'm not sure about the solo slots, I guess we could consider it if they suit.
