The only three unstamped apps at the moment.
. . . . . . . . .
For this application you need to imagine you're a rock star in the swinging sixties, epic eighties or the free-wheeling seventies. Woo!
. . . . . . . . .
THE BASICS
So you're at a press conference for your new and upcoming band and a reporter asks you to identify yourself in one stereotype or noun. Basically, who are you in the band? Are you the fearless leader? The solid heart? Or can you define yourself in one noun, such as a "dreamer"? I'm going to go with an impulse here 'cause the first word that came to my head was "weirdo" which is quite fitting in my opinion, though after a little thinking I'd probably make it more accurate by saying "the weird loner" since that'd actually describe my personality compared to the rest of the band.
Quick, fans are closing in from all sides! How do you react? Do you try to reason with them, run, get angry that you're not getting any privacy, what? : All I had read was Quick, fans when I already went "oh fuck" in my head. xD I'd try to get them back off, it would completely depend on my mood at the moment how politely I'd be at it.
What inspires your music? Nothing and everything. I rarely seek out for things in order to get inspiration from them, it's usually more subconscious.
You can link to no more than one song (excluding the bands in this theme) that represents your style/could be in your repertoire:
What kind of people do you see listening to your music? Are your posters found on every bus stop, or do you have a smaller following? I can't say about people listening to our music because people are so different. Some might find a song or two by our band they listen to every now and then, some might own fifteen copies of one of our albums 'cause they've listened to it so much the CDs are scratched, and some might think that we - to put it nicely - just plain suck. So I really can't say a certain "type" of people who listen to us. Though maybe not the ones who listen to only what's mainstream at the moment. I think we'd put some posters here and there but in the end we'd have only a few "loyal" followers, others would be just occasional listeners.
. . . . . . . . .
THESE GO TO 11
On the scale 1-5, how heavy is your music? 2,5.
On the scale 1-5, how experimental is your music? 3,5-4.
On the scale 1-5, how danceable is your music? Depends on what you count as dancing. A danceable song reminds me of upbeat pop songs, and since that wouldn't fit our style at all it'd definitely be 1. But we're not a quiet band either, so in this case you must interpret "danceable" as a song you basically jump and trash and slide around and do some odd, jerky movements [= what I call dancing] and then we're a 4,5.
On the scale 1-5, how sentimental is your music? 1,5-2. Besides the occasional cover song or a rare sentimental song written by the sensitive sould in our band we'd avoid all sentimentality like plague.
On the scale 1-5, how sexual is your music? 2,5. Even though I don't think our band would be known for making romantic/sexual songs a certain amount of raunchiness is always needed.
What's special about your sound? Hrm, maybe the fact you can hear we're not professionals. When you first start a band it has that certain roughness in it which most of the time goes away as you perform and practice, and I'd love to do my damned best in order to keep that roughness in our sound as long as I'm in the band.
How about live performance? I'm not at all sure if it's possible to have anything special about live performances nowadays. Most, if not all, things have been done already by several different bands in several different occasions.
How important is image to the music? To me it doesn't really matter that much, though I'd be lying if I said it didn't matter at all.
. . . . . . . . .
THIS IS THE LIFE
So of course, as a major rock star, you have a POSSE. Quick, who are the top three rock stars you'd want in your immediate group of best friends? UM. Mike Dirnt, Billy Idol and Frank Iero were the first three that came to my head, so.. the three of them?
And yes, which one would you want to shag senseless? xD AHAHA FRANK. <3 xD I had SUCH a ridiculous crush on him when I first started listening to My Chemical Romance, plus my reasons of picking Mike and Billy were strictly professional.
Everyone has a weakness. What will yours be on the road? Depression, alcoholism, drugs? Depression, mental illnesses, anxiety, panic attacks.. all mostly because of the lack of privacy, I have honestly gotten homicidal/suicidal in some situations 'cause I have been kinda "forced" to be around other people. Plus even though I haven't been officially diagnosed with any of them I have suffered from them in one point or another.
. . . . . . . . .
MY FRIEND, IT IS THE END
If you had to die one unique, rockstar-esque way, what would it be? Hmm.. a car crash, probably, the kind where drugs/alcohol on my part wasn't involved, it was the driver of the other car that hit me. Then the fans would be so pissed that bastard robbed me of them. Though, knowing my unstability I wouldn't rule out suicide either, though it's not that likely since I'm such a wuss what comes to physical pain. Accidental/not completely intentional suicide perhaps?
Would you be mourned all around the world or simply pass away in private? Well if I died due to a car crash or a suicide I wouldn't exactly call that "passing away in private".
What would you most want to be remembered for? My personality.
What song would you like to be played at your funeral? Would you like it to be a serious occasion or a celebration of life? Boring, but Good Riddance (Time of Your Life) by Green Day. I would want it to be more of a serious occasion but not a complete mournfest.
. . . . . . . . .
You can post one or two of your coolest, hottest, or grooviest "In Memorial" pictures:
. . . . . . . . .
Is there someone you strongly disagree to be voted as? As long as you explain your vote I don't really give a damn.
