The band (Coasting On Potential) made their first music video! The song is basically about the band's progress since they started in August 2014. I like it but then again I'm his mom.

That's great. I hope both your sons are doing well and things are better for you overall.

I love the name of the band, excellent. The song is pretty good too. I couldn't take too much of the party scenes, it distracted me from the music, and band, so like Chocolate Lover I stopped the video before the 2 minute mark.
Good luck to them. I am a filmmaker, so I'm critic. Still, next time they might want to tell a story with the video and make sure all the views are the band performing the song in the video not other songs they do as well. Just my 30 cents worth.

Glad you all like the video. I'll explain the video concept tomorrow and how it all ties into showing different songs and footage. Sorry for the confusion! Busy here; we are closing on a house tomorrow.

I thought they were pretty good! I think my daughter would like them because they sound like the kind of bands she listens to (Fall Out Boy, Sleeping with Sirens, Panic at the Disco, etc)...

Okie dokie, here is some explanation of the video. It is showing different shows/songs to show how and who has been in the band since they formed in August 2014. Basically, the progression of the band. The frontman/singer now was the drummer in the beginning. A new drummer was brought in, in the Spring of 2015. After the band completed their second EP the drummer didn't have time to practice. The band got a fill in drummer for their EP release show in December 2015. After the show they asked him to join the band and he said yes. A very good drummer (a Travis Barker for this area as in Blink 182) that has improved the band's sound immensely. I hope this explains the video better.
Oh! The closing went great and we are now home owners!! Yipeeee!

Les, great video and excellent song! I'm sure you are very proud of him.
I missed your posts back in December about this so was really great to see the updated news and that things are going pretty well in life. Congrats on the closing!
