Black Eyed Peas...

Sign in to disble this ad
Funny thing actually happened to me about 8 years ago... I was playing in a club in Dallas called "Trees". Now a little history at the time I was in a signed band with management being in the "Big 5" and well me and my band we were young and dumb and thought we were untouchable. There was marketing material everywhere in the club for the Black Eyed Peas coming to this little club... posters, flyers, etc. At the time the BEP's were a nobody and I can remember looking at the poster and calling the BEP's a "circus act".... now look at them. They've hit it big time and I'm stuck selling contruction material for a living. What a reality check I have everytime I hear their song play on the radio!!

And since we're on the BEP's... last week I won (2) BEP ticket's to the Houston Rodeo tomorrow night. These were 20.00 tickets. I sold them yesterday on CL for 300.00/pair. Now I have some money for my Dimarzio Model J pups I've wanted. YEAH!!

I saw the original line up in '99 at Bumbershoot in Seattle. I agree that they "suck" now (in a commercial-pop millionaire sort of way), but they put on a fantastic show and the original female vox had some amazing pipes... And she sang well too!
