Billy talent
The members of Billy Talent met during a high school talent show in which Ian(lead singer) played in a band different from the others. Following the event, the two groups began playing the local pool halls and bars together, though eventually, as each band reached its own peak, Benjamin(guitarist) approached Ian about starting a new band with Jon(bass) and Aaron(drums)
This new group, originally performing under a different name, demonstrated an immediate new name as evidenced on their 1998 debut LP Watoosh. Inspired by a character in the film 'Hard Core Logo', the foursome were re-granted the name as Billy Talent and soon recorded their breakthrough EP, 2001's 'Try Honesty'.

My friends and I arrived at the concert at about 7:30 but the show did not start till eight. We sat down for a little bit and waited for the first band to come on, The High Five Band. They played a pretty good set but I could not wait for Billy Talent to come on. When the first band ended I tried to get a better spot than the one I was at. I am not the biggest fan of Billy Talent but I certainly enjoyed his music.
With their self-titled debut, Billy Talent takes their rock rebellion to a people eager for their own inspiration. Billy Talent makes this jump with a inspiration that makes reality.
