hey we're wasting eternity, and we used to have a few names. they were dying 4 life, basic element, and rebel youth. so if u know us by those names we are wasting eternity now. anyways, we play rock music. no specific kind. just rock. so if u like rock, u might like us. so it all started when a few friends by the name of ryan westfall(piggy)(guitar) and gianni petroboni(shavo)(bass) were talking about getting a band together. well they decided to have there good friend tony fortunato(vocals/guitar) as there frontman. so as time went on the band had a meeting and they made the conclusion that they need a drummer. so they recruited this drummer by the name of nick wakefield. he was in the band for about 2 weeks b4 they realized it wasnt working out. so they had to kik him out. so more time went on and the band didnt have a drummer. so they just wrote some lyrics and tony did a side project with another former member of the band zach kline. and the 2 of them wrote "without your touch." (which later will be wasting eternity's song bc tony was the one who wrote most of it) they performed it at the talent show in medina NY, it was tony's first concert. so, bak to the band. after the talent show, the band got influenced to get bak together and keep going. so they recruited a kid by the name of john mclane. he knew a kid by the name of nate dennee (drums). Nate has been playing drums for 6 years now and he is a good drummer. he loves bieng with the band and enjoys all types of music, expecially rock! Time went on and they wrote more songs, and also played "without your touch" as there own. they also had there first gig as a band at "buffalo wild wing's". and they also played at ship n' shore restaurant(piggy's uncle's restaurant). and after that there was a lot of downtime. the gigs weren't going so well and they were coming in less and less. the band was also stalled on the count of tony moving to clarendon (holley) NY. (about a half an hour away) so that put the band at almost a dead stop. then one day at one of the band rehearsals tony and ryan presented to the guys a new song he wrote. its name was "dark cloud". so the band rehearsed it for a while and they started to get the hang of it. so they decided to record it onto an old tape recorder. after they recorded it they knew that this song was the best song they've ever wrote. so they practiced it, and practiced it, and practiced it until they could play it without a flaw. and then they took a brake. they went upstairs to talk a bit. they talked about the song and some other things too. they knew that john wasnt working out so well so they ad to kik him out or give him a new part in the band.they decided to give him a new part. his new job in the band would be sound manager. so they called him up (bc he was grounded and couldnt make it to the rehearsal) and told him the not so good news. as anyone of the band mambers would have taken it, he was mad/sad. so he didnt talk to the band for a while. (about 3 days) then he started to forgive them and took part in his job as sound manager. (also there is another person in the band as sound supervisor (brandon currie)) anyways, then they decided to wait a little while for the gigs so they can practice there songs. they needed to be flawless. and thatrs about where are story is today.
