The Ones That Time Forgot (Band Member Appreciation)

(Isn't that face just darling? I thought so.)

We all have that one band that makes tears swell in your eyes & your heart beat faster when you hear their songs. And there's always the one member that captures your heart quicker than you can say, "Holy smokes!" You have this instant connection with them that you don't have with any other member, a connection that's unbreakable. But just as often as that wonderful feeling of bliss described above, every band has at least one member that is deprived of the love & appreciation they deserve. And this is why I made this book; to make sure they do not go forgotten. To make damn sure that their blood, sweat, & tears don't go unappreciated to the listeners. (Sorry about the language, but do you get it?)

Everybody swoons over the lead singer and the bassist, and the occasional drummer as well as the rare guitarist. I love them all, but this isn't about the ones everyone knows. This book is for the members that people sometimes forget about or don't write fan fiction about as much or just don't give them credit. Now I'm not saying that it's a bad thing to favor the frontman of the band, because it's not. I just want to make sure that we don't take the others for granted because they deserve love too, just like every other member.

So stand up and sing Hallelujah because they didn't give up on their dreams, even if their hard work is more-than-occasionally left unrecognized by far too many. Be thankful that they have stayed, despite the lack of respect. Because you never know, if they left their band, that band might have broken up before that one special song was played, the one that saved a life. It may have been your life. So let's appreciate our bands together, just off the key of reason.
