I received an urgent plea for help from my 13-year old nephew, Ryan, tonight. He is the keyboard player in a rock band called Dex's Sister and they have an original song, "Like A Rebel", that is in an online competition for scholarship money, a paid gig at an area mall and some recording time at a studio.
Apparently, their original submission had a sound glitch and since none of the voters were able to hear the song, they naturally received very few votes. He is asking me to reach out to all of you and see if you would be willing to listen to the song and vote for him (if you like it of course). Here's what to do:
1. Listen to the song on the band's myspace page at: http://www.myspace.com/dexssister (It's listed in the grey box at the top right hand side of the page.)
2. If you like it enough to vote, go to: http://www.ecollegetimes.com/highschool1heat1/
The name of the band is Dex's Sister...when you scroll down the page, they are the band at the bottom...and the voting box is right underneath them.
The competition ends Wed, 2/17 at midnight, so if you can take a minute to listen and vote I'd be very grateful.
I just finished listening to the song and I have to say I'm pretty impressed... there is a fairly long intro before the vocals start, but I think you'll be surprised at the quality of the lead singer's voice. Not bad for a bunch of high school kids!
Thanks so much in advance...I'd like to maintain my "favorite aunt" status and help him out, LOL.
Thanks for helping out Ryan! Favorite Aunt for sure!!
