Why this name?
Virtual - Online
Preserve - It's an alternative word for Jam, really a play on words.

Do you play live?
We'd love to play live but we live thousands of miles away from each other!
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
This band wouldn't exist without the internet, plain and simple. It has bought musicians together from all corners of the world and that can only be a good thing.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
Hehe the chance would be a fine thing! Seriously though, we measure success by what we learn rather than what we earn. (Although earning would be nice!)
Band History:
The band was created by Angof, No66y, Davevan and Socalsteve.
They were lucky to add to the mix
Double D on drums
and Grunt as the Bass Guitar section.

Your influences?
The band have an eclectic mix of influences, so we'll see what comes on out in the wash! We sit mostly in Blues and Rock but the mix of personalities brings out some really interesting music.
Equipment used:
As we are an exclusively online band everything we do is recorded to PC. The tracks we create are shared around via a central ftp site. We use programs like Audacity and Adobe Audition to create and mixdown tracks.
More recently some of us have been experimenting with MIDI and synthesisers to expand our musical repertoire.
