A day in the life of a metal core band.
In Addition to long hours of practices and song writing, the
best part about being in a metal core band is the shows. The shows always hold
a new experience. Some shows can have 100 people who stand around while a show
with 15 people can have the most live crowd, and vise versa. Aside from
actually performing you meet a lot of interesting people such as a conspiracy theorist
parking lot attendant or the hustling homeless people who try to trade a hot
dog and half a bun for a cigarette. One of the best parts about shows is
driving there, after a 6 hour drive you have to find ways to keep entertained
especially after everyone’s cell phones have died. Occasionally this consisted of making fun of
Guns n’ Roses songs and watching Nick Swardson comedy Specials on the last
remaining cell phone. Sleeping arrangements are usually an issue after a show,
if we can’t find a place to stay, we would sleep in parking lots in the back of
a truck because we never had enough money for hotels. I feel that this would be
a good subject for this project because of the wide range of images I could use
such as live pictures and images from the random encounters that have happened
during shows.
