Correction: Don't follow the link. Go to his profile. It's embedded.

You're good, but you need a much better recording setting. It's muddy and distorted. Good luck.

Mudfreakv - you're certainly close enough to me. There's an open mic on Thur nites at The Stray Dawg Saloon & Grill in Hedgesville, on rt 9, about 6 miles from exit 16W offa I81. It starts up around 7ish. I might hafta go tonight. It's mostly acoustic, but it's something, anyway, & you can get your voice heard if you play, or if there's anyone there who knows your stuff to back you up. If I don't make it, tell John (the guy what runs it) that I sent ya.

There's another in Shepherdstown on Tue's at the Mec.

Try 'em out.

i was actually gonna go to an open mic nite at images off rt 51 tonite but plans fell through due too a few of my friends being poor this week...
Id deff like to check the plae out only like 15 min from me or so.
Idk if my type of music would be well liked tho lmao alot of rednecks in the area i dont think they will appreciate heavier music. although i can sing country n stuff it just makes me seem fake to ppl alot of haters around the area. idk the scene up there to well just started goin to bars just turned 21 a month ago.

Stray Dwag's a bit of a biker bar....I wouldn't worry about being too heavy, although it might be a lil jarring compared to the acoustic stuff.

Nice place, but a bit skeery lookin' on the outside, & rather small in.

I won't be there tonight - I lost me voice today, for some reason...I think it's cuz I was out in the wind all day yesterday not catching fish.

Most of the Us & Them album works great with just acoustics, you can try that at the open mic. Just sayin.

yah that's one of the few songs that really needs a full band behind it due to the driving bass line, on a totally unrelated note my brother got bitched at when he was at a concert for them cuz the security staff wasn't staffed adequately for 'dancing' like was going on
