I saw Mainswitch last year too and they rocked the place. What is a music critic doing at a cover band show? To say Mainswitch sucks is saying every song they covered sucked when it was written and recorded by the original artist. Now I have covered some maiden and Mr Scary all at 50% tempo increase so it's like speed metal. I can play it perfect but if someone says I suck, fine. I didn't play it normal speed. But if I'm playing Mr Scary and people wonder if Im playing Iron Man? Then that would suck... - Wed, 4 Jan 2006 6:01pm

Yea we suck all right!!The new years show the whole fuckin place was rocking pretty hard they didn't want us to leave the stage!I'm guessing the people/person who posted those slags are a certain disgruntled ex-member.Notice neither one of those posts have an actual user name/info.So come out to the show and judge us yourself!And if you still think we suck well we're all entitled to our opinion.
And to the people/person who slagged us let us know what band you play in and i'll come to one of your shows and give you my HONEST opinion.If you rock i'll say so
if not well i'll tell you that too!To your face not behind a fake name! - Wed, 4 Jan 2006 9:07pm
