Description
Claire and Chris knew each other in highschool and occasionaly jammed out. Claire works with Dale at Jd's pizza , and Dale mentioned he played drums. They talked music one day and of starting a band, but werent really serious. One Evening Chris came into Jd's ,(cuz thats what we do in Girard is hang out at the pizza shop), and Claire half kiddingly suggested to Chris we should start a band, he said sure, and spoke of a killer guitarist from fairview, Eric. With dale on drums, claire on lead vocals and rythm guitar, chris on bass and vocals, and eric on lead guitar, we had everything ready. The 4 messed around in a friend's garage for an afternoon and instantly clicked. That day Better Off Trying was formed. Back in the Winter of 2003-2004. So these 4 incredibly talented kids are now out and about playing wherever we can and whenever. I mean we could just be sittin at home doing nothing with our gifts, but instead, i guess we're just better off trying to make it big...
