UnderGround Scene: Field of Screams 1 @Martin's Bar

[ryan]

It's quite difficult for underground rock bands in Bohol to get a decent event to play at these days. No producer seems to be interested with producing a concert with bands who look like (and sound like) a bunch of hungry retards/addicts/degenerates pounding on empty rice kettles. All they want are the commercially viable, publicly loved and horribly boring radio pop-rock bands. I mean, I totally understand them. They won't bet their money on something that won't be a viable for the cashflow.

Ryan i know what you feel...

Did anyone of them contacted or negotiated to any record labels or whatever? like sony, warner etc here in the US?


Too bad, wished i could have some money to support them...

I knew some artist in LA before, they are not even known yet until now but warner bros. backed them up, supply some amount, all they have to do is compose and compose some music...sometimes perform in clubs..
Nothing like that in our country???

Nope. It's difficult enough to get decent gigs let alone get labels to sign them. These bands aren't really after having their songs recorded and sold massively but they just want to play, be heard and have a rockin' good time. Some of them are doing recordings though but are using their own money to pay for the fees.

The best thing to do really is just to go to their shows and enjoy the scene. Rock on!
