But, where did the rest of the band go? Nowhere. They haven't been here yet. We had some very grand plans, but it's summer and everyone has gone their own way. We'll see what happens when we're all in the same city again. Until then, you're stuck with just me...which you have been all along, anyway.
Influences
First and foremost, J.K. Rowling, without whom none of the community, the canon, the fanon, or the music would exist.
Wizard Rockers everywhere!
Muggle influences are many and varied, but include Johnny Cash, Pink, Queen, The Beatles, Chipper Thompson, Kate MacLeod, and Buddy Holly.
Sounds Like
Wizard Rock, I hope.
"That is way cool....Sort of almost like Harry Potter meets Clint Eastwood. I like it....The Good, the Bad, and the Harry.....or A Fist Full of Dumbledore...or Two Mules for Harry Potter....either way, I liked it..." - G.R., Allen, Texas
I like to think it doesn't just sound like a Clint Eastwood movie...in fact, that's probably just the one song, {haha}, but I'll leave that up to you!
Record Label
MLRWTNPP- My LivingRoom When There's No Pool Party
Gryffindor Represent! (Don't let the Golden Snitch layout fool you!)
So, who are the Sweetwater All-Stars?
In 1993, the quidditch team from Sweetwater, Texas enjoyed an epic victory and completely pwned the Quiberon Quafflepunchers after a match that lasted five days. ("Quidditch Through the Ages" - J.K. Rowling, Page 45) We can only assume that the SAS's are total bamfs.
Thus I have stolen their name.
I'm a new wrocker, but a long-time fan and a long-time musician in other areas. I sing songs about Harry Potter, because books are awesome and music is even more awesome. I believe that music should be fun, and will pretty much play/sing whatever I feel like stylistically...so it will change a lot. That's how I roll.
Where is the rest of the band? Didn't there used to be 5?
Yes, there used to be 5 band member names instead of just the one. The other four aren't gone completely. It's more of a temporary leave until we figure out what the heck is going on. Until then, The Sweetwater All-Stars is a solo endeavor. Which it really has been all along, anyway, because we haven't figured the band stuff out yet. :) So nothing has really changed except the list.
Until then, add me! I love friends!

Fine thanks :) Not been up to much really, went to see HBP in 3D the other day - it was kinda disappointing that it was only the first 15 minutes or so in 3D.
I think you've got to look at the movies as completely seperate from the books. There were bits I wasn't keen on but I think it's been the best yet :)
Sirius Blacktop is a supertastical name for a computer! See, you know you're a lunatic, die-hard Potterite when you can relate ANYTHING and EVERYTHING to Harry Potter. XD
