1337

OH MY GOD, I think I just played B minor!

About Me

We're five people who are in Year 10 at Wardle High School and we all wanted to join bands, but no one would have us, so we've made our own.
We practice in Alex's garage whenever we can and we record things on Becky's phone, however Becky's phone only records 30 seconds, limiting us somewhat.
We don't want to be the next Queen, we just want to have a good time, whilst playing music. There's too much pressure on people to become the next Big Thing, wherever did bands like The Specials or The Bodysnatchers go? They were good and stood the test of time, we're not afraid of a bit of hard work, but we also want to mess around a bit, otherwise, what would be the point?
We're pretty self sufficient really, we know alot of other bands say "If it wasn't for such-and-such-a-band then we wouldn't have a leg to stand on" but no one's really helping us, however thanks goes out to all the people on our friends list for their support, and our loyal groupies, who've screamed, made banners and whored themselves off, all for us. =]
We're quite proud to say that we've written our first ever song, titled My Hamster Just Died: A Story Of Murder And Sacrifice, which is quite an achievement. Although not all credit can be taken for the entire song, which makes me question the legality, however that is a bridge we shall cross at a later date. Prepare to see our new song when we've saved up enough to record it!
Pictures and recordings coming soon!
