We featured The Last Vegas on our site before. (Check out that old report here) This band has gotten plenty of publicity through Guitar Hero II, they were Spin Magazine's "best breakthrough band," were the house band for Kyle Busch at all of his 2007 NASCAR parties, and were the musical highlight of 2006 Extreme Sport Dewfest Tour. They don't really need the help, sure it would be a great boost for these guys and I wish them all the best. However, I think Motley Crue to the easy route out. The only good news about The Last Vegas winning this contest is the Dirty Pearls can start acting like they know us again. They redesigned their MySpace page to, I guess, appear more professional in the eyes of Motley Crue. The band asked us to write a review of them so they could feature it on their MySpace, which we did. (review can be read here) The band cut the parts they liked and put it on their old MySpace page...displaying it proudly. Well fuck that shit. We are not going to curtail our reviews for bands, albums, concerts, or whatever into some corporate mold. We own this site to say whatever we want and call things as we see them. You don't come here to read paid corporate album reviews like the fellation of Axl Rose by Mr. David Fricke (Read his Rolling Stone review here)

So if you are a band and you want us to write something for you, know that up front it will not be your usual review. You will get a full, honest, and sometimes comical review of your band. But if you seek us out, you already have seen our work and want us to write something for you anyway. All we ask in return is that you use part of our review on your site, mass emailing, or whatever and give us credit.
