Careless Whisper Posted April 1, 2008 Report Share Posted April 1, 2008 You, the members of YCM, don't know this, mainly because I have never mentioned it. But I am a member of a Progressive Metal Band known as Avanz. And this weekend is the first concert sense December, we took long enough of a break. So we are very proud to be back in action. [size=x-large][u][i][center][b]Avanz[/b][/center][b][/i][/u][/size] [u][b]Member List:[/b][/u] [b]Vocals[/b]: Jester Frinch (personal friend of mine. Really good at singing, met him about 2 years after I started going out with Elly, so I have known him for 2 years.) [b]Vocals 2[/b]: Clare Fiantina (Jester's GF, I met her at the same time as I met Jester, they've been going out for 5 years, they are alittle older than me.) [b]Guitar/Lead[/b]: Brandon Vielne (Another good friend of mine. Wicked Awesome at guitar. I met him afew monthes after I met Jester.) [b]Guitar/Rhythm[/b]: Derek Wilforn (Pretty cool, though not as talented as Brandon is, he's still pretty good. I met him when he tried out last year.) [b]Bass Guitar[/b]: Andrew Grankilo (He's like my best friend in the world. Me and him are like exact twins, it's kind of scary at first, but also very cool. Everyone calls him Grank. I'v known him sense 5th Grade, me and him tried out for the band on the same day. [b]Keyboardist[/b]: Johnathan Reily (Not really sure how he spells his last name it's really wierd to me. Anyway, he's an awesome keyboardist. His only problem is playing when there isn't a crowd, which I think is wierd, wouldn't you think that he'd be nervous with a crowd? Anyway, he just recently tried out, this is going to be his second performance.) [b]Drummer[/b]: Zachary Morgan [me!] (Possibly the best one in the band. I've known him sense I was born lol.) [b][u]Song List for this weekend (with links OMG!!!)[/u][/b] Sin, by Circus Maximus. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4HD0bapCVZ0 Whither, by Circus Maximus. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eQDwgaxN4pg&feature=related Glory of the Empire, by Circus Maximus. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sr67Q2xOi98&feature=related The Sacrifice, by Symphony X http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NdD5V1AiwXI&feature=related Paradise Lost, by Symphony X http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IeO67D99rVc Bring me to Life, by Evanesence (did I spell that right, it usually stumps me) (Final Track) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NH35y9ihO_s The Performance Location is in the Tabernacle down in Atlanta GA.

Careless Whisper Posted April 1, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 1, 2008 Ah, man. That sucks. I'll be sure to try to get some photos. If I don't I'll be sorry. Also, before anyone asks. Of course I'm gonna bring Elly along for the trip. Dispite the fact that she now has a broken leg. I asked her if she was sure about going to this one, but she said she wouldn't miss it for the world. But I still didn't feel sure about it, so my parents are also going, to make sure she's alright. They don't normally go because of work and other random stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Careless Whisper Posted April 2, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 2, 2008 Alright, everything is set up at the Stage, all we are gonna do now is either practice our song list, or do as we did today after we finished preparing, tuning/polishing/replacing broken parts of the instruments. Dude, you will be amazed if I ever remember to take a picture of the drumset, I just replaced all the broken nicks-and-crannies, dusted and polished it off. The drumset is a cross between Pearl and Tama drums, with Evans drum heads, Zildjian Cymboles, Mapex Double Bass and Hi-Hat pedals. Each drum painted to a Garnet Red color with a hint of purple sparkles. It looks amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
