Run-in with One Direction...

[Micky]

ugh. 1d. these kids are just gonne die down. love the "DO YOU EVEN LIFT" pic. lmfao.

[NytestrykerZ]

Micky makes a good point. All signs point to these kids being a flash in the pan. Case in point, it's not like the JoBros are still relevant.

[Macca]

THAT'S WHAT MAKES YOU BEAUTIFUL

[NytestrykerZ]

OH OH OH!

[Patty]

British Institution if I'm being brutally honest...

I saw this story on another site as well, sent to me via my Tremonti Google Alert.

I'd love to know what actually transpired. We know no details.

[austin.]

I'm sure the guys were respectable to One Direction
WG"Hey guys, we're Tremonti, I'm Wolfgang Van Halen (Eddies son) and we play for the band Tremonti. You know, Creed? Their guitar players solo gig"
OneD"Hahaha Creed, and you just live off your dads name, wolfie"

That's what I imagine happened.

[gbruin]

Meh. They are One Direction. They lose automatically, no matter what happened

[Jim]

The guys in Tremonti were surprisingly ok with it afterwards, ya know.. Being adults they moved on. It wasnt a talking point at all in Birmingham last night

[Macca]

Jim you're such a celeb

[Jim]

I dont get it..

[Macca]

Some silly wench posted this on fb:


"The next time you guys want to slag off a band like Van Halen or Mark Tremonti's band then I suggest you do a rain check and realize that you were manafactured on a phony TV show, you didn't write your music, you didn't wake up and rehearse and play every day, you didn't sleep in a van when playing grotty little pubs because you didn't get paid alot for the gig, you didn't beg record labels and promoters to pay attention to your music did you? No. These guys did though, these guys shed blood sweat and tears, you thought the xfactor was hard? Grow up and get into reality, you'll become nobodies whereas these guys have been living it up doing what they love and they'll be known for a lifetime.

There are some of us like me that attend Music College and hopefully Music University because of people like you, because you've ruined the industry that bad, we want to make our own music and all we need is a little push as to how we can get gigs and stuff
nowadays and we try! We make real music, you don't walk into a class and see 5 fucking pricks singing 'That's what makes you beautiful.'
You see kids spending hours looking into the history of music, respecting other musicians, spending 9am-6pm everyday in a rehearsal room getting their music that THEY wrote upto scratch and ready for a performance.
Thinking of drum beats, time signatures, key signatures, guitar and bass tunings, riffs, solos, chords, lyrics, melody for the lyrics, effects ectect. Learning how to read music, learning all of it's theory in order too be the best they can be at what they love.

If we wasn't that bothered or determined, we'd not be doing this, we'd go on a shitty tv show just like you guys and get our talent from other people.

Welcome to the real music industry where people even go as far as suicide because music is all they have and it's that hard to get into. We were born to work for what we want, just like everyone else, you will never appreciate music the way those musicians you slagged off do.

Rant over, now go get your lyrics off your song writer and keep destroying the industry guys."


lololololololol

Similar to the Bruce Dickinson rant:

[Macca]

yea but she's all butthurt and mad and it's massive lulz

[NytestrykerZ]

Yeah, nothing to be raging about. They won't last because they're the knights of summer and winter is coming.

[anguyen92]

Did anyone try reading any of these rants in CM Punk's voice? Its pretty good in my head.

I did after I saw your post and man, it made the rants even better!

are you trying to appeal to Timmy?

Last couple of lines made me think bob wrote it.

Genius thought: just for kicks tremonti should do a metal cover of "That's what makes you beautiful"

[Timotheus]
