Message to Linkin Park + VOTE for FBI

Hi All,

Firstly, vote FBI because we want to be in the top 5 so that LP can choose us to play at their concert. 'Cos we know if we get the chance to be in the top5 that LP will like us and we will end up onstage at the Venetian.

Anyway, I just wanted to talk briefly about something...

I was really happy on Wednesday night when we were in the top 5 of the votes for the Linkin Park band search. But since then my hopes and dreams have crumbled because we have had over 100 votes taken off us... or that's what it seems.

Of course I was a little bit shocked to find this out when I jumped onto the computer last night. So, I contacted the guys from alivenotdead to see what was the problem. I already know that some votes were taken off some of the other bands because people were making duplicate accounts, but I thought that wouldn't affect us at all. I can't imagine anyone trying to make false accounts just so we can get more votes.

According to the alivenotdead boys, somebody/ies made some duplicate accounts and voted for us many many times. Now, if this really is dodgy and it was one person doing this, they must be a really really fanatic fan. Thank you for being such a die hard fan. But, what I wanted to say is that we don't condone this kind of behaviour. We want to be in the top 5 with real votes from real people.

But, there is a possibility that some legitimate accounts are being flagged as duplicate accounts because they are coming from the same computer and/or using the same password. Who knows! Anyway, we have been bumped out of the top 5 because of it.

This is our last ditch effort to get some more votes. We need you now. If you haven't voted already, please consider us. Watch our videos/read our blogs and listen to our music. It should help you to decide.

This is a small note Linkin Park-

Dear Linkin Park,

All of us guys think that you are awesome and we would really like to be your openning band for the show in Macau. Unfortunately, because of the voting system the top 5 bands for you to choose from may not be the best band to have as your openning act. It just means that that person has more friends than the rest, not necessarily fans. Out of the top 5 bands to choose from of course 24 Herbs would be my bet to play with you guys. I love them alot! But, they are already a commercial band who has had many oppurtunities in the past. Sorry 24 herbs, but please give one of the Indie bands a chance to play with LP. If we can't be that band then please think about choosing Killersoap as they are my number 1 pick. It's funny I should say this as they have been our competitors and rivals so many times over, sometimes they have gotten the upper hand in a comp and sometimes we have won against them. It just makes me respect them more, plus Rocky has an awesome voice, much better than mine. haha... but who knows, there is two days left and by some miracle we might be back in the top 5, but I doubt it. And if we are please consider us as we will give you the show you have been looking for. You just got to look at our live music videos to see what we can offer. And even if we don't win, maybe your record label could pick us up?

Open your eyes

It's the FBI!

We have lost more votes??? We had more votes yesterday??? Don't understand... yeah, killersoap is real good, but better when Rocky used the vocal effect.

This sort of thing was bound to happen but don't let it get to you. Let it inspire you to write a kick ass song! Add oil!!!

i agree with Don - please try to be positive. Even if you're not winning, you're still getting exposure and experience. and lastly - the duplicate vote rules have been applied equally to everyone, no one is being singled out here.

Thanks Don, Etchy and SS. I didn't mean to sound so negative. Your right, it should just inspire me to make more music.

I agree with all the other guys.... this competition was all about getting exposure.... AnD website got a lot of new users just for this competition and I am sure you have got a lot of new fans as well.... personally i think musicians should never compete for "who is the best" because each piece of art is unique and impossible to compare with anything else....
