skymama 35 #1 May 9, 2006 I got this e-mail from Tom Hayden this morning. He's a freeflier from Skydive Atlanta that some of you might know. His friend, Jerry, is in a band and they are finalists to play at a shindig. I told Tom I'd post it here so they could get some more votes and he'd only owe me some small favors. So please vote for the band, I really want those small favors from Tom! Here's the e-mail and link: Jerry's band, "Golden", is in the running to be selected by Dave FM to get to play at the Bonnaroo Music Festival - this crazy, huge, awesome music festival similar to Coachella that will be in Tennessee in June!!! Dave FM is going to send one local Atlanta band there to play - alongside such amazing bands as Radiohead, Tom Petty, Beck, Ben Folds, G. Love, Sasha, and a ton of others! They've narrowed it down to 4 bands so far so PLEASE go to this website and VOTE FOR GOLDEN!! The two bands that get the most votes in the next TEN days will go on to a showdown gig at Smiths Olde Bar in a couple of weeks - and then the winner there will go on to play Bonnaroo! So please help Jerry out and place your vote! :) http://www.929dave.fm/survey/default.asp?QC=1She is Da Man, and you better not mess with Da Man, because she will lay some keepdown on you faster than, well, really fast. ~Billvon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

skymama 35 #6 May 9, 2006 lol...I don't have speakers, so I can't hear it. I don't mind helping a friend of a friend though, even if it's not my style of music. I acutally like Maroon 5 anyway.

ccowden 0 #7 May 9, 2006 Big City Sunrise gets my vote. They are the only ones of the four who are a bit different. The rest are Ben Folds/Maroon 5 knock-offs. They are good, don't get me wrong, but I just can't vote for a band I don't dig. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've heard this band live and bought their CD. I guess their sound is similar to maroon 5/ jason mraz, but too much of their stuff is completely original to be called a knock off. I really enjoy thier music. Hope they make it to Bonnarroo. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ccowden 0 #14 May 9, 2006 Well then, they should have showcased one of their original sounding songs for this vote. All I know about them is what has been made available to me. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chaoskitty 0 #15 May 9, 2006 I know.. thats why I'm tellin ya different. But from what I know of you, you like the punk underground stuff.. and you're right, this band just may not be your style. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
