I wrote this to describe the experience of your
concert!

The band sloppily gets ready for their set bumping
into each other on a stage too small. They get ready
for their 10:30 gig. They're on right after and right
before no-talent nobodies.
Jessica finds to her dismay that she has stepped on a
piece of gum. Personifying punk-rock she pulls off
the gum and slams it onto the wall. Without
expression she goes back to setting up a TV on stage.

When the band is finished plugging in all their own
instruments as best they can they go right into the
music. Richie quickly spews lyrics into the
microphone while slamming on his old decaying electric
guitar. Alex drums with pure energy somehow keeping a
beat with the quickly changing music. Jessica clashes
with the raw punk-rock emotion looking almost like
she’s in a different world seeing something staring
off into nothingness, but in her world base is queen
as she perfectly executes some superb base rhythms and
even adds an enchanting female vocal at times.
Partway into the set Richie looks out at the small
group of people in the audience and says, “Clap more
for the band.”
The audience claps.
As the concert comes to its crescendo Richie picks up
a microphone stand and throws it toward Alex just
barely missing him. Then he goes into some crazy
thrashing of the strings as he jettisons himself all
around the stage.
With broken strings the guitar finds itself being
thrust by its strap around Richie’s back a few times
knocking over a microphone stand. Then Richie takes
off the guitar entirely holding the neck in his hands
and goes at the TV with it over and over again with
harsh passionate blows. The audience takes a few
steps back from the stage. Alex slams the drums even
harder. Jessica plays unfazed.
As the music stops Richie heatedly marches off stage
and out the exit door the building. Alex and Jessica
start to pack up their instruments looking like its
just another day on the job. And an awed audience
goes over in their minds the performance they just
saw.
The Willowz live is nothing short of an awe inspiring
experience. With pure genuine love of music they give
everything they have to play for the audience no
matter how small. They very well may be the next big
thing in the music world. Or maybe the next big thing
after the next big thing. In any case they have their
own style, they have their own incredible brand of
music, and they have the love of their fans. That all
adds up to a band that’s a ticking time bomb of
success.
Willowz rock!
