Let's Ditch Dale

So, here's another to band to add to my list..

This is a band called Let's Ditch Dale. Basically, it's pretty serious in comparison to every other band I've been in. Two of the members are older and pursuing a career in music so it's more focused than any other band I've been in as well. We're a five piece, we play fast paced pop/rock type stuff, and it's a lot of fun.

We've played one show, we have another one planned for the end of February, and hopefully we will be doing a mini-tour thing over March break. Take a listen, and tell me what you think!

Nice band! Pretty good songs! Did you by any chance name your band after a spoof of the surf rock artist Dick Dale?

No, our drummer's name is Dale. He tends to randomly not show up for practice so we plan to ditch him. At least that's what we tell him.

Well Patrick, you never fail to impress.
Great stuff, tons of potential. It's a little "poppy" for my taste, but you get better all the time man.
Good luck with this band!

Thanks Derek! Haha, sometimes I can't believe I'm in such a poppy band. I just got a little bored of playing hardcore all the time.

Last night was our show in Mississauga and it was wild! Small venue that was packed with around 60 people. The crowd was great and everyone got really into it. Tons of jumping and moshing, and they even sang choruses with us once they figured out the words! Plus we sold a bunch of cd's and made over 100 bucks.

Hey, I listened to this the other day and forgot to post. Sounds pretty good. The vocals are solid and the music is well performed.
