Death From Above 1979

wow.. this is the nicest post ive ever seen! looks so cool.. i didnt even read it.. xD

NEW UPDATE:

Valdir Kroeger will be joining as drummer

What?! Amazing

Well, with my RL issues more or less solved, i didn't want to waste the money invest in the game, but i had to give my career a different path, and Jerry is a Wonderkid looking for a drummer, so what could be better?
It's really a pleasure to be joining his band.
For now i'll skill up the Hip-Hop skill and then i'll join the band.

Again, thanks Jerry for this opportunity.

The pleasure is mine my friend. I always could tell, even back in the days of Outlaw, that you were a drummer that was really going places.

Great news!

I'm sure you'll perform better and achieve more, guys..

I might be devoting one of my studios to Hiphop then, so you can use that if you want to.

Let me know if the offer is something you'd like to consider.
And Valdir, if you want to, you can become the studios CEO in Sao Paulo. I dont know if you're still at the hotel?

I didn't get fired from there, don't know if i will.
But i can consider that offer, to be honest not doing nothing as a CEO is a bit frustrating!

i was hired by clayton to be a lazy ceo, but he can verify that i'm anything but lazy

whew! went from #267 to #215

Stop to be that successful Jerry, i'm tired to say 'congrats' to you!

Jk mate, keep up your good work. What are your goals? 'to perform a decent concert in two weeks' or like..

I'll say it for you Anthony, congrats Jerry!
Can't wait to join the band. I just hope it doesn't take to much time to get 5* stars in Hip-Hop.

Shouldn't take too long to get 5* i don't think... i think it took me about 2-3 weeks of non stop improving. I hope you can make it for the ghaa tour it's going to be a lot of fun.

and i updated some goals

Hail to the DFA 1979!

There is no such band like yours Jerry, keep it going ; )

Damn those "rookies" are going hard.

Congratz

So Valdir is now part of the DAB 1979(sorry I'm very lazy). Well, the two of you would make a very good band. And may I comment that Valdir is very generous and kind.

break through, #78 global newcomer now

And i see your average show quality is mediocre now. We performed an above average lastly : )

i've worked a couple of nice songs into my repertoire that hopefully will boost the next show into above average... maybe. well i guess i can only hope and see what happens

I believe a good composer with high musicality and somehow skilled in songwriting will carry DFA higher mate. Just a suggestion ; )

i've been meaning to ask that...

is there a limit to how well your performances can go while just doing covers?

There isn't an exact limit as far as i know. However, due to unwritten rules of popoworld, playing covers means you're still a bit newbie, when your reperoire fully consists of your own songs, you can say i'm done : )

Playing your own songs has many benefits. You can release more singles and albums which will help you to earn more money and city fames. It 
also helps your chart position.

Playing your own decent song is always better then playing a perfect cover..

songwriting is definetly something i'm going to focus on once the ghaa tour starts to wind down

Finding a serious and active newbie who still recieves newbie points and directing him/her to a songwriting role would be nice idea -if you can find someone serious and active enough : )

You can keep a close eye over newbie questions forum, that'll give you more chances. I met two of my bandmates here and now we have three songwriters (including me) with perfect musicality : )

However, another bandmember of my, Lee will leave soon, due to inactivity and we'll lost some of our market segment popularity.. He was my failure. So i can advice you to go newbie forum, read posts and questions as much as you can, find someone who's asking good questions, looking serious, contact him/her and talk about your plans but don't accept him/her into your band unless you're sure he/she's the right person. Do not make mistakes like i did..
