Back when i lived in nh i used to go and watch live music quite frequently, since moving to florida i havent been able to go even once. i dont know any local bands and have no idea where the local places where the bands play are. none of my friends are into the local music scene and id really like to meet someone that is. Some of my favorite bands from nh were The Human Flight Committee, The Flaming Tsunamis, and And Then There Were None which come to florida on occassion but theres a very slim chance ill be free on the day they are in tampa and usually cant find anyone to go with me at any rate. there was nothing like a good show though, there is so much energy when you are there for live music its so easy to get lost in it. sing along and make friends, sometimes you leave with your ears hating you but youve had such a good time you can always live with it. its always nice to see someone trying to follow there dreams and make it as a musician, these are people with such an incredible love of what they do and a passion for music. Some of the best music ive heard comes from unsigned bands that play the same venue every saturday night. popular bands are not always the best, just the most marketable. dont get me wrong there are some really awful local bands but there are some that are definately worth listening to as well. if anyone knows some local bands around i would love to hear back.
