Post your band here.

Hey JohnnyC your new songs sound good and I'm pretty sure I still have most of your old stuff on my laptop but I would recommend uploading your songs to Bandcamp. Then people don't have to download them one by one.

THanks, man. Yeah, I definitely should and I know how to do it, but I'm sure I'll put it off for a long time before I get around to doing it haha.

EDIT: I think maybe there's some twisted logic behind my obsession with last.fm and its inconvenient downloading other than laziness. If I put stuff on BandCamp it's very easy to access, but there's a tendency to just download with one click, put it on in the background, and forget about it while you're doing something else. I know how it works, since I do it all the time with other people's music haha. With last.fm there's a concerted effort to getting the songs on your computer (although, let's be honest, it's still pretty easy). It forces the listener to engage, which is the only kind of listener I'm interested in having, honestly. I'm not trying to "make it" in music, so the only reason I put this stuff out there because I would like to think these are good songs that deserved to be listened to, not necessarily just heard.

That probably sounds pretentious (actually, it definitely sounds pretentious) but meh...I think there's some truth (dare I say wisdom?) in it.

Haha, that's definitely strange. Bandcamp is the best though!

Yeah, it definitely is the best. Like I said, I'm sure at some point I'll do the Bandcamp thing.

This is the band I played in when I was in high school.

It's not very original and the production is horrible, but I suppose it's punk rock so I figured I'd upload it for nostalgic reasons and share it with you.
I play the bass and do backing vocals.

I checked a couple of these tunes out, and as a fellow purveyor of the low-end, I have to say that you, sir, play a pretty mean bass guitar! Nice playing!

I can attest that I listened to the whole album only because it took forever to download.

Hey Johnny C, I just listened to a couple of your songs on Last.fm. You've got a good sound! The last one was "As Fast As She Can." It's pretty rockin' man.

Hahahaha see, Matt, it works!

Yeah, definitely. Keep on playing for sure! It's always cool to see bands play locally in cities and such. I remember when I used to live in the Seattle area, there were a bunch of smaller shows. Sometimes those are the coolest to go to because it's more fun in a way, plus you don't have to shell a lot of dough to see good quality music.

I don't think I have ever posted my songs on here before. They don't really sound like Gaslight at all but maybe some of you guys might like them.

Just did this this afternoon.

Not sure if you guys usually listen to music like this but I'd appreciate any feedback.

Oh and I'm digging the Paper Ceilings album, The Serious Song made me laugh (:

Thanks! I like your song. I could even picture some mellow rapping over the top of it.

Heres my band if anyone wants to listen. For fans of Rancid, Dropkick Murphys e.t.c also have a nice cover of knowledge to put up

I gotta say I really liked all the stuff on this page but I need to say I listened to all your songs and I loved each one. 10000 better than Frank Turner.

Whoa thanks, that's high praise haha.

This is my band, we don't really sound anything like Gaslight Anthem and the other members in the band do not understand my obsessive love for them nonetheless would appreciate some feedback.

Oh wow thanks, that's high praise. I really appreciate it. Yeah the singer was a great find but unfortunately she left for college in Philadelphia a few days ago which hinders things a bit regarding studio time and recording but on the plus side playing shows in her area helps towards exposure.

Here a couple videos of my band, Who Wants Some Nesquick
the first one is a song i wrote called It's All Right, interspersed with a little Ben E. King in the middle.

This one is called Hella Kopter, my buddy wrote it

We just played our last show before we go off to college!

Thanks everyone! Yeah Andrew Jackson Jihad is one of my favorite bands. So great.

Sarah, I'm assuming it was you and not some other Sarah from WI that just ordered a CD so I'll let you know I'll ship it out tomorrow. I really appreciate it!
