Dirtleg
Dragons of Whack is apples, oranges and avacados. In fact, the sh*** is bananas. All of us have very different musical styles.
As Daddy Long Legz told us, it's the best way to make music.
Picking a genre on here was a difficult choice. Drummer is a wanna-be punk, bassist loves industrial, lead guitar is a long haired metalhead and nonexistant keyboardist listens to Depeche Mode even when he's not trying to get chicks in the sack.

Why this name?
Keyboardist mentioned to his five year old son that he was in a band. Not to be outdone, the son claimed to also be in a band. "What's your band's name, Ryan?" - No hesitation - "Dragons of Whack." Stolen from a five year old... hopefully that's a first.
Do you play live?
Haven't played live yet except in drummer's basement with drunk folks standing around. Some of us are sh*** scared of being in public, but maybe we work through that for a gig or two.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
We don't give two shits or a f*** about the music industry. If there's a band I really like and appreciate, I'll buy their album to (theoretically) support them. I'll try my best to pay for a show (in this town it's kinda hard). I will download their music off of the net though to check them out first.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
I don't see it happening... maybe later we post review from Dark Skippy's John Dooher who is calling for my death, so...
Band History:
... we all work together? Threw a band together for the sole purpose of covering "Cars" by Gary Numan with alternate lyrics to pick on another co-worker.

Favorite spot?
SNewST at the moment.
Equipment used:
Pathetic Pearl Kit, Korg MicroKontrol, Korg DW8000, bucha guitars and shit? I dunno, those guys aren't writing me back.
Anything else...?
Tied up, tied down, up against the wall
Be my rubbermaid baby and we can do it all...
They said Anything goes here on the form... I got confused.
