Sick new ROCK band forming (sacramento)

2010 MAY 17

 

 

… and looking for members:

 

SICK46 is looking for DRUMS, BASS, KEYS, and GUITAR

 

We got the vocals set, plus the look, the name (SICK46) and some dope stickers.

 

Our sound is like a combination of the best parts of radiohead, led zep, van halen, metallica and coldplay all rolled into one. Here’ our bio:

 

SICK46 is a Sacramento, CA based rock project. It can be described as a ROCK band with GROOVE. Taking rock guitar riffs and mixing it with smooth bass lines that are both soulfull and filled with that reggae feel. The drums are driving yet bring it all together with laid back, sitting in the pocket grooves. The lyrics tell stories of finding your way through the dark days. With all that we go through, it sometimes is hard to stay focused on what we want. Getting caught up in the GAMES** of everyday life that keep us distracted. FEEDING MY ADDICTIONS** versus feeding my brain with knowledge and the desire to continue moving forward. Thus, keeping myself BURIED IN BLUE** thoughts and weighted depression. But if you search in your heart you will find your HERO INSIDE**. The person within who is always on your side and gives you the strength to continue to believe. Once you believe you can learn to live again. And once your living again there is only one thing to do … LIVE FOR WHAT YOU LOVE**.

 

** These are all songs we’re gonna be write.

 

This is where you come in – if you play any of the above instruments (and you have to be SICK), maybe we can talk, but you have to have the LOOK.

 

We’re holding auditions at my uncle’s spot – he has a dope garage with some instruments and stuff but most important is that you come looking the part.

 

I think that pretty much sums it up but if you still have questions email me I guess. We can talk about money and stuff but really I think theres going to be plenty to go around.

My girlfriend just sent this to me. Had to share the quite frankly unbelievable example of pretentious douchebaggery. If it wasn't Vancouver I'd think it was a joke. Just sell the fucking tickets.

ORIGINAL POST Friday September 25.

 

OK.

Here goes.

I know you kids have been listening to the PEAK 100.5 and you're all jacked up to see them now.

Well before the PEAK played them here I was listening to them on Dabbl Radio out of England.

And then I saw them in May at the Club 560 ($17.00) and can honestly say they were AWESOME!

(By the way people were paying $80 for a $17 ticket at that show)

Here? No one had heard of them.

No one even had their CD.

Not Zulu. Not Red Cat. Not HMV. Not even Amazon!

We had ordered it directly from England.

That was almost two years.

Now their back in Vancouver.

Well I signed up with their fan club and got advance notice AND advance tickets.

I also got them directly from the Vogue.

Where were you when they went on sale?

 

Fortunately for someone out there I have two spare tickets.

I noticed on Craigslist lots of people WANTING tix.

I also noticed on eBay lots of people SELLING tix.

The prices on eBay start at $79 and go as high as $300!

 

What are you willing to pay?

Contact me.

Two Tickets.

HI there,

 

Thanks to everyone for their generous offers of loads of money.

You certainly exceeded our expectations. (As well as the cost of the tickets.)

We had offers from $50/each - $400/pair. WOW!!

 

However it was never our intention to sell these tickets above cost/face value.

While many fans of Mumford were willing to pay a lot, a lot of fans just couldn’t.

Is the fan with the biggest wallet the most deserving? Perhaps.

Or is the biggest & most appreciative fan but can’t pay much more deserving? Perhaps.

 

The reason why we wondered this was our own experience.

When we saw Mumford in May we were there 6 hours earlier in hopes of buying a spare ticket.

Not a lot available but those few that were sold for $75/$80 for a $17 ticket.

By chance we met someone that gave us two tickets at face value.

We were surprised and elated at our fortune.

Now, This is our opportunity to pay it forward.

 

In our society the almighty dollar reigns supreme.

If you have lots of money it can open many doors for you and make life extremely easy.

Yet there are just as many deserving ones that because of time, circumstance or events can’t open those doors.

They're closed to them.

Well, I wanted to open this door for someone.

(I wish I could open it for all of you deserving ones)

 

Apart from monetary offers I had a great number of emails with passionate pleas, reasoned requests, eloquent explanations and tearful entreaties.

We have selected someone to join us and have contacted them.

(They will not be getting the tickets in advance, they will be meeting us for drinks before the concert and accompanying us in.)

They are paying the cost/face value for the ticket. Nothing more. Nothing less.

 

We would like to thank all those that sent us emails.

There are a tremendous number of terrifically deserving people out there and fabulous fans of Mumford.

We hope you all get to see Mumford and Sons live!

 

P.S.

Premier Paint and Construction (all over *****)

 

 

If you find a add asking for any construction work and it is from Premier Paint and Construction DONT DO IT! The guy you will talk with is Thomas. He is a little bitch and will shove it up your A$$ and break it off, and not pay you at all. He will tell you...."man we can do a lot of work how much for this job and this job". The fact is, is that they are pricks that wont pay you. The owners name is Isaac Noar. He will lead you on saying he is finding out the facts but he is a lying little prick aslo. Thomas is just a little pussy. He was shaking the day he tried to give us 1/3 of the money we were supposed to get. DO NOT WORK FOR THIS CO. They do a lot of work on apartments. Watch them. I am sure they are Muslim and just a couple of pieces of shit. So stay away from Premier Paint and Construction or anyone named Thomas on here needing help. I know where you live and I will find you, both. Here I come fags. I hate your god Ala and you guys. I hope your 71 virgins are fat and ugly as hell.

 

 

Location: all over *****

it's NOT ok to contact this poster with services or other commercial interests

Compensation: no pay

 

the ending was funny

*I am looking to try and find a post from the company and play the email game with them.

fatty in the blue escort - m4w - 30

Just wanted to say thank you for the break check on Monday afternoon, as I realize with all the weight in your car, it would have done some serious damage to mine. I liked the way you flipped me the bird with melted chocolate running down your finger as well, kinda made me hungry for a snickers! But, next time, just PLEASE do the speed limit. Now, I know that there was a lot of extra pounds in your car which one would think would case your car to work a little harder, but the laws of gravity have proven that a heavier object traveling downhill will travel faster then an abject of lighter weight, meaning no matter how hard your car was working, all them pounds in that vehicle , you shoul have been able to maintain the speed limit, or at least somewhere close to it, which in turn would have allowed me to do so as well without being up your ass. I did appreciate however that your skinny 120 lb. boyfriend rolled up his window when we got to meet at the stoplight. Not sure if he was embarrased or afraid, or if just likes that sweaty 7 day old crotch rot you harbor between your legs and didnt feel like sharing with the rest of the public. If thats the case, I do thank him kindly. Now I wont blame your ignorance on being from Sun Valley or call you a tweaker because of where you live, as that would be wrong to do and just wouldnt be truthful. Although, meth might help you shed a few...... hundred pounds. Hmmm, hope that I gave you some thought and I cant wait for our next encounter when you decide to break check me, til then, take care of yourself fatty in the little blue escort with the melted chocolate running dow her middle finger. Hope to see you and your little toy poodle of a boyfriend real soon.
