''Tickertape Parade'' was a band from Arizona that gained quick success on the indie scene, but burned out quickly before really establishing itself. ==History== Tickertape Parade was formed in June 2002 after Aaron Wendt recorded a few demos, and then recruited his friend Jesse Everhart to play guitar.〔(Playlistnow.fm Profile: Tickertape Parade ) retrieved 03-15-12〕 The band would thereafter be completed when Sean McCall joined on drums and Topher on bass〔 and Dan Hargest, formerly of Pollen, would join to fill in gaps by playing keys, guitar, and singing back-up vocals.〔Wurst, Erika. (''Pomp on Parade?'', The State Press, Jan. 30, 2003 ) retrieved 03-15-12〕 By the beginning of 2003, Tickertape parade found itself playing to crowds of 500 or more,〔 opening for acts such as The Ataris, Sugarcult, Jimmy Eat World, The Promise Ring, and touring with The Stereo and The Format.〔 In 2003, things were looking very positive for Tickertape Parade. That year, the band released an EP titled ''You're Causing a Scene'', on Sunset Alliance which attracted positive reviews. At Adequacy.net, although the reviewer felt that the album lacked in originality, he could not help by note "that these fellas appear to have grander ambitions than the average melodic rock or emo troupe," and that they were truly on the verge of something special.〔Peternson, B. (Adequacy.net Review of ''You're Causing a Scene'', July 14, 2003 ) retrieved 03-15-12〕 Matt Shimmer at Indieville.com also positively reviewed this record and expressly recommended it to emo lovers.〔Shimmer, Matt. (Indieville.com Review of ''You're Causing a Scene'' ) retrieved 03-15-12〕By the end of the year, Tickertape Parade was named Phoenix's Best local band by The Phoenix New Times.〔(''Best Local Band: 2003'', The Phoenix New Times ) retrieved 03-15-12〕 Tickertape Parade gained the addition of Scot McCracken with Lakeside Entertainment as management and Mike McCoy (Fallout Boy, Gym Class Heros) from Serling Rooks Ferrera McCoy Law Group. Tickertape Parade showcased for a few major record labels however could not ink a deal. After 2003, the band released a self-titled LP, featuring Nate Ruess from The Format, on Jim Adkin's (of Jimmy Eat World) short-lived label, Western Tread Recordings.〔(Stinkweeds.com Western Tread Recordings Catalog ) retrieved 03-15-12〕 This, however, appears to be the last that anyone would hear from the band. In addition, "Your Making a Scene" has been removed from the Sunset Alliance Catalog, as its original catalog number, ALLY020, has been replaced by two other Sunset Alliance releases, and the label's website makes no mention of the band.〔(Sunset Alliance Catalog ) retrieved 03-15-12〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Tickertape Parade (band)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
