Heard of the band, though I've only lived out here going on 1 year. never seen them live.

Hahaha. I dont even think background vocals would be a good idea for me, I'm not even Branson worthy. Now background dancing/snapping is another story. All Al Green would have to do is just say the word and I would be there.

I play drums in a thrash/death metal band called Auroch. I can't post a link yet but the myspace is in my sig. We used to be called Tusk (before discovering the Pelican side project) and used to play almost all Metallica covers... We probably have enough originals for a full album now after maybe two years of playing with our current lineup. We do a lot of local shows and whatnot. Opinions welcomed on the music but I can't guarantee I'll care.

I also used to play in a band that was basically an Alexisonfire ripoff, except with really weak clean vocals replacing the screamo. At the time it seemed like it was going places faster than my metal band, but as time went by I realized that the reason we named our songs after numbers was because they all sounded the same and used recycled chords and scales. I fully admit this band was utterly terrible and I am pretty embarrassed to be associated with them (I have since fallen out in a major way with the guys in it) but the boringness of the riffs inspired me to be somewhat creative with my drum beats and I think it was a good experience, if only to teach me what not to do. If you really, really, really want to listen to it, the band was called Blackout Ablaze and I think there are some clips on youtube.

Well I play in a pop/rock band...even though we're going more to rock type of playing for the last few months. I play the lead guitar and I'm also the singer of my band.
My band's name is Fatamorgana, which on English is "Mirage". We play in local pubs and caffes doing cover songs, but we've also played on few festivals in our country with our own compositions. Soon, we're planning to release our first album.

Jim Morrison used to to think the same way.

Yes, I sing in croatian pagan folk metal band called Stribog(meaning:the godfather of the winds, in slavic mythology)

Couple of years back, I was singing back vocals for an old croatian gothic rock band Phantasmagoria.

Also did several projects: Malkuth(black metal), Blackthorn (heavy/symphonic), Equinox Hunter (also some kind of heavy/symphonic), currently working on Terra Balkanica with one great musitian from Bulgaria (Atanas Gedov), this project is sth like pop/ambient.
