An Open Letter to FMA

Dear FMA,

I saw your show last night at the Akron Metal Assault! I was the one in the orange polo shirt and the khakis in the sea of black t-shirts and ill-fitting denim. I didn't know what to expect when I heard about the Akron Metal Assault at R/E Nightclub, but have to say, your band really impressed me.

I've been involved in music for a majority of my life and I know how easy it is to have something get in your mind and ruin a show. Early on in your performance, something went wrong with the bass equipment, but you didn't stop the show. You kept playing through keeping the crowd entertained. Speaking of entertained your front man did a great job at getting the crowd involved in the show. Those are two of the most important factors to me when it comes to bands: rolling with the punches and having a front person who can handle a crowd. Later in the show your bassist took his shirt off. That was appreciated, but he's no Dreamy Kevin.

[To all you non-FMA members out there, if you're interested in checking out one of their shows, FMA will be playing at the Concrete Jungle on July 15.]
