| SentencedtoBurn User Info... | Dude, you're forgetting a few VERY important things. First, leather - armbands, pants, vests, shirts, fuck whatever, just make sure it's made of leather. Ofcourse the leather can have fire on it, and in all honesty fire (or lightening,motorbikes, and such) is paramount. Secondly, your singer cannot play an instrument and sing at the same time. Without an instrument, frontmen can dance, jump up and down, and tease their hair-syle or make various gestures to the crowd. Make sure your singer throws up the horns fro the crowd. Appparently this gesture is no longer exclusive to metal, and if your singer throws up the horns, your destined for greatness (i.e. Avril Lavigne, the definitve voice on heavy metal today). Finally every member of the band should have a fan situated adjacent to them on stage. This makes their hair styles look cool as they blow in the wind. Cool is important with "the kids" today. - Mon, 6 Oct 2003 4:01pm | ||
| BBJones User Info... | I think more important than a van is other people... unless you want a solo act. After that, it's all easy... - Mon, 6 Oct 2003 4:03pm | ||

| _Griphin_ User Info... | Even if I get good at this guitar thing, I doubt I'll play with any bands, probably write a bunch of songs and store them in a shoebox or sumfin' :) - Mon, 6 Oct 2003 6:27pm | ||

What sort of license and insurance do I need for driving large vans in BC?
The Victoria Ska and Reggae Society rents passenger and cargo vans for events, tours, festivals, and community use. One of the most common questions we get is:
“Do I need a Class 4 licence to rent or drive one of your vans?”
