Help my band to win a spot in front of 20K people!

[skwasjer]

I play in a band (dutch), and we are in a competition to win a spot on a big open stage to play for a huge crowd. We also need to mobilize everyone we know to get enough votes from the public.

I couldn't think of a bigger bunch of friends then here at subsim. So here you go, please vote for Vlucht13 and make our day:

All Dutch songs are about cheese.

Well, okay, occasionally they throw one in about wooden shoes or a dike breaking, but mostly it's just cheese.

[peabody]

Are you kidding? They have some great songs about tulips and living below sea level. And canals - lots of canals.

Don't you know anything?:p2:

[mr chris]

Voted. Good tune:up:

They have some great songs about tulips

But they'd need a keyboardist for those.

[11Bravo]

Voted. You are currently ranked number 1.

[AOTD_MadMax]

Good luck mate !

Nice music mate, i like that sound cause it is handcraftet with instruments, not constructed by computer.

Iam also musician, playin tenor-, alto- and soprano sax in some jazz- soul- and rockbands and i know that the number of people watchin your concert is important !

20.000 People is very big stuff.
My greatest concert was about 6.000 People and that was a great feeling.
So while your guitar gently ..........

It sends shivers down my spine thinking about it. The biggest crowd I've played for was 600-700 :haha:. The radio-show doesn't really count, you do not stare into people's eyes nor do you see them turn off the radio :D

[Rubini]

Yeah! Voted! Good luck mate!

Voted!!

[tater]

I'll vote at the in laws on sunday if that is still in time. And perhaps at the office as well :)

I listened to every tune. I liked asmannederpop, Reinard, and Contraband. But of course, Vlucht13 rules! :rock:

Best of luck to you... very cool stuff... Antwoord will be stuck in my brain the rest of the day.

side note: New Fox Lake's "Jerk" sounds very much like Huey Lewis' "Workin' for a Livin'" to me.

Yeah, but hopefully the next time you'll be staring into the faces of 20k, see their positive reactions and drive your inspirations forward to even higher climbs.

I've listened to your music and I honestly reckon you could do well.

You remind me a little of one of my favourite bands from my teenage years...Wishbone Ash http://www.psionguild.org/forums/images/smilies/wolfsmilies/thumbsup.gif

Cheers!

We played the semi's tonight. It went well, but there wasn't alot of crowd (the organization somehow didn't have enough fundings to advertise??). Our singer won the 'Best Musician' price so that's great (the jury selects one of all musicians during the night).
The jury decides in a few weeks which 4 bands won from all semi-finals and move to the finals. While the competition was pretty awesome, we have a good chance!

Votes are still needed though too ;)

[cgjimeneza]

you made it... if you need more votes or the like dont hesitate... give Neal a message and we will all be there voting and cheering you

Carlos

[SilentOtto]

Your choice has been saved.

Voted for you man! As a fellow musician (bass player) and as a sign of gratefulness for your contributions, this was a must!!
Go with the wind!

[SilentOtto]

BTW, my favourite song is Antwoord, I love that dark feeling it has, and those acoustics plus the vocals work is great! :up:

[tater]

Punt!

Oh, and should you be at a friend's house (unique IP), vote there, too!

And at work!

[skwasjer]

Things are looking hot for us, but every other vote helps!

We at least managed to get two smaller gigs this summer, roughly 5-7K crowd (one where we share the lineup with Dutch renowned artists, the other is more local artists), but being being able to play on this big stage would rock even more :)

Thanks for the support people :yeah:

Oh, and I just got me a new (well 2002 actually) Taylor 714ce, I'm a happy man now :D

So I voted for you of course.

We did it! We are in the finals in Zwolle on the main stage of the festival. :rock:

We got the highest vote count (don't know how much), but also an extraordinary amount of pageviews on the voting site (as we are told), well over 46000 for our band alone (DAMN!).

Thanks everyone for voting and for your support... If you want to keep in touch you can join us on Facebook:
