If your knees shake, I applaud your ability to feel.

Alright. This blog entry is going to be actually about a band that isn't as known as many others. Now, you need somewhat of a certain kind of ear for this kind of music. I just so happen to have it, haha. There are actually many people who do listen to this as well.

I chose this band in particular though because I personally know one of the band-mates. These are a group of great guys, and they're extremely talented as well, as a whole and on their own. They have a unique kind of sound, and I absolutely love it.

The band-mates are as follows:
Vocals: John Delmain
Guitar/Vocals: Xander Mayor
Guitar/Vocals: Jeff Parker
Bass: Frank Drew
Drums: Jarred Mckinney

They classify themselves as being a Hardcore - Metal - Progressive genre.

I would love it if everyone would check them out. May or may not be your favorite kind of music, but they do have a lot of talent.
Also, they are having a benefit concert on November 26th, 2011. This concert is held to support a Memorial Fund that Frank Drew (Bass) is Vice President of. To learn more about that, click this link: http://www.freddrewfund.org/home

The concert will be at the Church of The Nazarene.


439 E Norvell Bryant Hwy


Hernando, FL, 34452

Doors open at 6 pm, and more bands are TBA.

I would also appreciate it, and so would the band, if anyone who reads this would come out and show their support.

Thank you for reading again!

Keep your hopes up high, and your head down low.

A DAY TO REMEMBER.

This is my first real post to this thing, so I decided I would like to start off with a band. "A Day to Remember" is an American punk band. They actually originated from Ocala, FL. Currently this band has 4 albums out. They are "And Their Name Was Treason" which came out in 2005, "For Those Who Have Heart" which came out in 2007, "Homesick" which came out in 2009, and "What Separates Me from You" which came out in 2010.
In my opinion, this band is absolutely great. I would love nothing more than to be able to see them in concert!

My Top "A Day to Remember" songs would have to be as follows:

All I Want:


If it Means A lot to You:




Better off this way:




I just believe they're an amazing band all around, and I seriously advise everyone to check them out whenever you can!

Intro.

I'm going to start off with saying hello, I'm Alyssa! This is my blog, and obviously, it focuses on music. Now, I listen to quite a range of music, so at one point there will be something for everyone. The only thing I actually refuse to listen to is bluegrass. (Sorry!) So, there will be plenty here! I hope you enjoy this blog as much as I'm going to enjoy writing this blog!
