If you're like me, you think everything on the radio today sucks. I dig local music. It's the intimacy involved that seems to make it better. Anyway, post some obscure music from where you're from... don't be skeerd, represent yo hood!

You know, I'm not surprized.

Apathy is taking over...

There's no good music, because the same people are listening to the same thing over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over, and over again... (etc.)


Bleh.

I saw this brother live and he blew me away......

That's what I call rhythm.

For some reason the black light posters in the back ground make it that much more awesome.

I wish there were more rock videos from around here, but there isn't so here's this;

it's been a long time- several years - 5,6 since I've been involved with the local music scene regularly but I'll give it a try

a band that I know is still going strong is one of my son's best mates from school, his brother & a couple friends - they're really good and have a strong local, and not so local following: "From the little enclave of Crystal Lakes near Dayton, Ohio, please meet Electric Smoke"

and once again my apologies as I don't know the tags on here to post links

the black cigarettes, playing Electric Smoke in the 2nd video are now defunct as far as I know....sure their members are pistol totin somewhere tho

mostly do post punk / metal - they have a good garage sound and have cut a couple of cds

and then from the scenic east side of Dayton please say howdy to the Lead Sled Dogs - been around for awhile

they started out doing covers of disturbed and Godsmack, RHCP

the punks are still at McGuffy's ?

but I could be wrong - bars tend to look alike on the inside - but it looks like my old stompin grounds - band members - very nice people BTW

I first saw Sarah Fonteyne when she was the supporting act for someone that bored me rigid.

Excellent tunes. The site is often "slow" not many people on or
commenting...
