Sounds LikeBARFLY - BIRMINGHAM.
A loud aggressive mixture of Progressive and Classic-Rock, it’s a tight sound that is heavily influenced by 70’s and 80;s Rock-Metal yet the band bring in enough fresh ideas to make it very much their own and bring in a sharp distinctive edge which really works for them. They’ve got some excellent material, seriously anthemic, jump-along stuff, it’s well-written and expertly put together to ensure maximum impact – complete with clever tempo changes, driving riffs, punchy beats and Dylan’s powerful Rock cry. Definitely ones to watch out for!
Stephen Hudyuba.



STOURBRIDGE ROCK CAFE 2000.
Now who can ask for better than this? A blast of sleaze-rock akin to early Guns ‘N’ Roses and Velvet Revolver; a super-slick performance from a super-slick band. The 5 members are obviously comfortable with each other and that comes across in the way they work together as a group. You get the feeling of 100% star quality just watching them. There was very little interaction with the audience; there didn’t need to be. The band’s stage show was nothing more or less than what it was; 5 guys playing pure rock and roll. I have no doubt in my mind that anybody who enjoys rock music should see these guys live at least once.

   About MY GREAT AFFLICTION
M.G.A
are a hard hitting, 5 piece from Wolverhampton who describe their music as "Full Throttle Rock". This band of friends came together in 2006 to put a charge back into the ever increasing manufactured pop-rock sound that they were tired of hearing. All they want to put some balls back into the rock scene and play the kind of music that they want to hear on a raucous Saturday night out.

M.G.A
are currently working MAS Records who are an independent record label and development programme founded by Kevyn Gammond, with Robert Plant (Led Zeppelin) and Karl Hyde (Underworld) as its patrons.

*cough* oh yea of course I've been practicing....I'm practically fluent now! Errr...i just get easily distracted ya know...so it might look like i've forgotten everything, but it's just because my mind is elsewhere, honest! *cough* lol. I still remember how to sign 'my name', that's a handy start lol, not sure about the rest. As for work Im still workin at the same ole, same ole, but im also making some extra money taking these surveys things online; you should give em a try; i mean, hey, the extra money comes in handy, right? i guess you'll have to type the link into internet explorer or whatever, but here it is:

Open Your Eyes





Jun 19 2009 12:33 PM

Open your eyes is here to help bring hope back into people's hearts and minds. We're here to listen to your story. We're here to understand, love, and help. We're here to listen, scream, cry, laugh, hold, and to care. We hope that you find love and hope in your hearts at some point in your life and are able to take in the air you breathe and appreciate every last breath. We want to end the suffering and fill every last beating heart with hope.
Let's share our stories, let's scream them out with all that we have. Let's forget the pain we have endured and remember all of the love we have felt. If you find yourself losing hope remember the ones that care, the ones that truly love you even if it doesn't seem like it half the time. Do not lose hope. You have one story to tell, one journey to wonder on.
If you ever need to talk to someone we're here. We wont judge, I promise:)
Peace,
love,
and happiness,
-Kaci
