i think what they see is potential - to be molded into something the studio can use.

kind of like a girl that wants you - then tries to change everything about you - because she saw some kind of potential for you to be the way she wants.
and all you do is scratch your head and wonder what the hell she ever saw in you in the first place ..
You're absolutely right. My band has had offers to be signed too some indie labels but I have to question they're motive. And I know that all they see in us is money $$.

I want a label that I can agree with. That likes our music and understands it, Not just some dudes that like Hip-hop and takes a good percentage out of our shows.

People say to me "when you play this show, I want you guys to stand out so people will know who you guys are". I wanna say "fuck you. this is how I dress, plain and boring".

but now, I'm getting to the point where I just wanna be signed so I can put a record out... Music is a bad business
