The Howitzers


Manchester-Based alternatives, The Howitzers, were formed in 2009 by a group of friends who shared the same taste in music. The band members include;
Jay Moore
The founder of the band, bass guitarist and lead singer, he began playing bass at the age of 15 and founded the band a year later, He enjoys all forms of metal and rock music, despising most other genres.
Jason Marshall
The lead guitarist, Jason was the last to join the band. He joined when he saw a post in the newspaper asking for a bassist, and showed up with more equipment than could fit inside the band's (at that point, tiny) recording studio, and was instantly liked by the other members.
Danny Williams
Danny met Jay at a concert a year before the band was formed, Danny was already part of a band, Nine Lives, until he had a disagreemen with the others over the genre, he took distinct pleasure when the Howitzers showed up Nine Lives at the KERRANG Newcomers tour in Manchester.
Rob Graham
Rob had been a good friend of Danny, and applied to be drummer along with 5 others, but Rob showed himself to be the best of the 6, getting the job easily.

OOC: Nice start to rolepay, I gotta say, it's wayyyyy better than most I've seen, but just one tip. Roleplay and the actual game are not related, so, for example, you ma be the third biggest band in-game, but in rp, you're still supposed to act like a beginner bad. This doesn't mean you have to drop all your number one singles and such and pretend that they never existed, but it's much more professional to start off with more of an introduction and then slowly build your popularity up to the level where you're headlining. My advice would be stick on the whole track you had in the first post, maybe roleplay an interview or review or something, just so we can get to know you, watch what other roleplayers do/say, and just plain out make friends. Keep this up ad just clean up a couple tiny details here and there, ad you'll do great. Fantastic start, and welcome to the forums.
