Something Better
User Info...
Hello Mainlanders. http://www.myspace.com/somethingbetterbc

We are a band from the Victoria. Before you go thinking
"Phew, what does some island band think its doing trying to find opening gigs on here", please consider the following.

We are not just any band. We are a unique band. Our sound blends elements of all party genres of music, while still containing meaninful and inteligent lyrics.

We have our hearts in the right place. On Valenties Day after 3 months of hard work and preparation we sold out a 300 person show at our local events centre in support of The Victoria Women'S Sexual Assault Centre. We gave all of the money raised to them. We would do it again in a minute.

Over here on the Island we are very popular, we get played on the Zone FM. We play shows all the time, the media covers us a lot, with articles appearing in 4 local papers, 3 radios station interviews, and TV spots as well all in the last 3 months.

What I am trying to say is we are a quality band, with people in the band that have quality values, quality equipment, quality attitudes, and the hopes of using our musical gifts and skills to make people happy, and do good things.

Having said that. We rock the party, and can please any crowd from festival goers, to packed bars on Saturday night.

We are looking for gig trades (We have gigs here) and opening slots for partial door splits, or fee's within the greater Vancouver area. We would be appreciative of this and would be sure to put on a great show that would make your musical night great.

Thanks.
