I have recently come across a CD that I thought I had lost. That CD had to do with a band called Your Vegas. Yay. Another small band that has yet to do anything worthy to join the realm of bands that are actually known. (Cue the party noise makers, or whatever)
Anyway, even though they have only produced an EP (Extended Play, you unknowing reader, you) I recommend you try to find them. I suspect youtube will work. They are like...cool people. I would know, because I saw them be the opening act to a Duran Duran concert, so they must be cool people. I mean, I even managed to hang out with the singer for a few minutes to get my CD case signed. Yeah, CD case. Take that, piracy.
Long story short, I was kind of floored by how committed (For lack of a better word) the band was. The singer, who I'm pretty sure is Coyle Girelli, had a broken leg. Or maybe it was Mat Steel. I forget. Anyway, point is that even though the singer had a broken leg, he still was on stage singing his heart out, and hopping around every now and then to look silly. It was one of the more captivating performances in my life, until Duran Duran finally came on stage. But I'm not talking about them. Yet.
They are a rock band that is on the 'lighter' spectrum of what is known as rock. I say lighter because they don't really have any screaming vocals, clean/clear or otherwise. And they sing about issues that people should actually give a damn about, like war. War is a good thing to sing about, right?
