"Dallas Music Fest 2006"

Dallas, TX based metal band 3/4 TON was the headliner at the Dallas Club Cleaview this past Saturday January 28th. Ending a weekend long Dallas Music Festival.

The packed out Clearview clearly showed their support for the metal band. Their high energy style and 0performance undoubtedly will 0pave a way to a bright future for this band of four. Consisting of Brady on vocals, Billy on guitar, Gary (A.K.A. G-Funk) on bass and Chris on drums. I made my way to the front of the stage where I remained for the entirety of the show. Keeping out of the pit behind me, I thrashed my ass off to songs like Hatred Within, Drain and my favorite Clowns. We were all covered in bear and silly string by the end of the show. Nothing short of one of the best local shows I've seen lately. These guys have great showmanship. They gave thanks and respect to our dear departed hometown guitar hero Dimebag Darrell Abbott. I recommend giving these guys a listen and if you can make it to a show, that's all the better. Live 3/4 TON is amazing! Just a kick ass performance I can't say enough about. Everything you could want from a metal show!!!

"Renegade Radio Review"

When you think of Texas music, you may think of many great bands including the likes of Pantera, Faktion and Drowning Pool. I am here to introduce you to yet another you can add to that category. Their name is 3/4 Ton.

Formed in 2001 in Mesquite Texas, 3/4 Ton was born of hard work and dedication to their music and their local fans. Which is a attribute you often see bands over look now days. With the lineup of Brady, Billy, Chris and Gfunk you will find the perfect mix of guys to give you music that is totally heavy. Yet amazing enough to leave you surprised and coming back for more!!

They have received numerous great reviews. Not only from music affiliates, but also by their multitude of fans! They have received airplay on such stations, not limited to but including, 89.3 KNON’s show Twisted Kicks. On May 19th 2005 they played the Hell Within tour when it rolled through Dallas. Which was a really big show for the guys.

When asked what they thought of their band. As well as where they saw themselves going with their music. They have one of the most down to earth perspectives I have seen in a long time. They replied “ We are just a local band upon many other great local talented musician’s and bands, playing and creating music from the heart, that’s what makes us tick. Of course we would like to see our music grow and inspire other musician’s anywhere and everywhere, but it’s all about the local love. Home is where the heart is and that is where it starts and grows from there.

I could say a endless amount of good comments about this band. Such as, their music will blow you away, they can start a pit anywhere or how down to earth they are. I could go on forever. But it’s a experience you need to go out to experience for yourself. Go see them live. They are a amazing band, who will never leave you disappointed you came!! Out of the many great bands in Texas, 3/4 Ton is one of the first I would recommend seeing. Whether you are a local music freak or a person passing through looking to expose yourself to the best Texas has to offer!! I definitely give this band a perfect 10 when it comes to music. Check them out!!!! They will definitely have you coming back for more!!

In closing, I would like to thank you all for giving me the time to tell you about this amazing band. Please go out and support these guys, as well as the many other great bands the world has to offer!!! They all appreciate it, as do I.

Bio

3 Quarter Ton is a hard hitting groovy metal band that hits you like a ton of bricks. With sick and twisted guitars, phat and funky back bone bass, chest pounding drums, and to top it off, in-your-face to-the-point vocals. 3 Quarter Ton do not believe in beating around the bush when it comes to their music. Each member was recruited for their attitude and playing style. To see them live you better double tie your shoe-laces because you will find yourself in a massive pit.
