I'm a huge Pearl Jam fan, and just wanted to know what other Pearl Jam fans might think about my bands sound. We have a new music video out for our song "Sweet Dream" and I would love it if you would take three minutes and check it out and let me know what you think.

    Beautiful video! The video made me think of Natural Born Killers. Its a bit haunted and creepy. I love that you were playing in the lake/swamp. The red balloon was a nice touch. 8-)

    Great song! Also a bit haunted, but there is an upbeat and catchy side to it as well. Love the mandolin and the accordion- always a fan of a band that can successfully rock an accordion. Checked out some of your other videos. You guys are really good!

    Sounds fun! I think I have friends in town on the 26th and they want to hit up some of the paso wineries, so that might work. They "drag" me to wineries I "drag" them to a cool show. :lol: Everyone wins.
