Band History:
At first, it was just him and his friend playing in the backyard, but her other friends joined in, and ended up becoming a band. They had to work hard to get an manager, and to start a tour. It took years worth of effort, but they made it. However, they're sometimes still called an amutar band.
Pretty soon, They were invited on to this tour, by his 'skill' with people, actually, they were noticed when they were playing at a small club in new York. The other members of the band couldnt afford the trip. So He and Her took the band down to two people making it a dup act. They both sing an play guitar, and he will play keys and do the harmonics if needed.
► Extra Information
Extra Details:
Rules Word:Avenged Sevenfold
RP Example:
(Before he got together with Impulse)
The night was dark as cars sped down highway 32 and taking a right at the next light, Lines of cars and trucks flooded the street. The parking lot of a local Boston hotspot was filled, The Nightware Lounge. All the college and highschool students went there, there was no age requirement, Like that would matter at all.
The bass of the sound system could be heard outside the club. The party was in full swing as the MC pushed his way through the crowd and pulled himself onstage. He smiled over the crowd as he pulled the mic from his back pocket as he yelled over the roaring cheers and hoots comming from the dance floor. "All right, All right, settle down, it's time, for what you all came to see, The one the only, Jason Burke"! The scream that erupted from the club could have blown the roof off.
Cheers and applause continued as Jason walked out from behind the curtain. The girls screamed his name as the men wished they could be him. Jason smiled as he looked at the electric guitar that was on the rack. He smiled as he nodded his head and was handed the mic by the MC. Jason took a small breath, He always got nervous when he was about to perform, He had been doing it for years, so why did it matter all of a sudden? One reason. His Mother, She was here. In this very club in the back, watching the son that she loved sing his songs.
Securing the guitar with the neck strap, Jason smiled as he placed the mic on the stand and he sat on a stool. He smiled as he looked over the crowd and winked at a few girls in the front. He smiled as he spotted his mother, sitting on a barstool in the back with her friend Kim. Jason smiled as he cleared his throat and he said clearly. "Ladies and Gentlemen, This song is about the loss of someone you love, The someone that you hold dear to you". His voice rang out of the speakers with a calm sound. He smiled and he said "This song, I wrote myself, Falls Away". Jason strummed the guitar slowly, his normal fast rock not comming out of him tonight. He smiled as he closed his eyes and sang the first verse.
"Have You Ever Broken Down an lost yourself
To something that's occuring around you
Are you tired of hearing that it's not okay to cry
Are you taking it out on someone else
feeling Guilty and wondering why."
He heard humming as he smiled, He looked across the crowd and he continued strumming and singing.
"But when you're crying everything
just seems to disappear
You let go of all your pain and all your fear
(push it to the side)
You fall down on your knees
Screaming, pain, begging please
But Still it all falls Away''
He repeated the chours as he smiled, He stopped playing as there was a loud and long applause. He smiled and started chuckling as he said "Stop, Please, That isn't even the full song, I just wrote that fifteen minutes ago, It came to me backstage". The was a spatter of laughter here and there as he smiled. He stood up and said "Well, Im done, goodnight folks, I have to go home and spend time with my mother". He smiled as he walked offstage. It sucked being the opening act. Soon, He would be the star.
