You always go in with the intention of playing your best and knowing the material you're auditioning.
Tony Palermo
I have known people throughout my years of playing where maybe they had a gig, but then lost the gig because they didn't really move forward with them.

I was still doing the punk thing, but also playing in some indie bands, I had a less crazy hairstyle.
Tony Palermo
The band that I was I auditioning for, they were just all like, dreads and stuff, so I did look kind of out of place. But I had learned the material and it sounded cool as f**k when we were rehearsing.
Tony Palermo

Tony Palermo

Tony Palermo
