Mirai Gen wants to pass along that he'd be interested in a Rainbow Dash beadsprite commission. =)
...Also I can't believe no one's posted here since the last time I did.
Ironically, I cannot ski for the life of me XD. Cross country is fine, but downhill is a no-no for me, since I'm somewhat clumsy and I'd be afraid to hit something like a tree or a small infant.
I say Top 40, so yes we actually have to do some of the "hits" that are popular today, but it's actually more like the "Top 40 hits from the last 50 years" or so, so a lot of Elvis, The Beatles, Disco and 80's tunes are included in our regular repertoire. Depending on where we play (like a popular bar or a wedding reception) we change our tunes around. My R&B band is fun since we do "thematic shows", in which we focus our tunes on one particular artist or band. Right now our current show is an hommage to Stevie Wonder, so we're playing all of his greatist hits as well as lesser known ones. Don't know if you're a fan of his music, but it's quite fun to play.
I'll definately tell you if I'm ever in your area for a show! I'm always up to meeting new people from different places.
I attend Georgetown Law school in Washington, DC. It is extremely competitive, backbreaking, and requires a ludicrous work ethic. I keep reminding myself that I'm going through this hell in idealistic hopes of achieving my "dreams," though at this rate it feels more like I'm just enduring a neverending nightmare. But! That's law school for you.
A Top 40 cover band? So you play whatever constitutes the Top 40 hits on the current market? If so, I feel so terrible for you. Having to waste your talents on the likes of "California Girls" or "OMG" seems horrific, particularly when there's so many great classic jazz hits you could play through. The R&B Ensemble act sounds more my style. And you're going to tour Europe? That's inanely awesome.
At any rate, if you ever play in the District let me know; I'll definitely come to watch you play a few tunes.
(And you're from a ski resort town? I love to ski...been doing it since I was a young'un. Do you ski or snowboard?)
So what law school/University do you attend? I think I read somewhere on the forum that you were from D.C or Connecticut, so I'm guessing you go somewhere near those towns? I heard that law school can be quite competitive and that you sometimes have to ''bully'' yourself through it (for the lack of a better term)?
