my new band's first show...

If the Ivory Tower is the brain of the board, and the Transformers discussion is its heart, then General Discussions is the waste disposal pipe. Or kidney. Or something suitably pulpy and soft, like 4 week old bananas.

my new band's first show...

Post by sprunkner » Wed Apr 09, 2008 5:33 am

is this saturday.

we sound like absolute ****.

Our singer is recovering from a full month of bronchitis.

Our drummer is being more potheaded and vacant than usual.

This should be interesting.

Sorry, mate. Not quite my thing at all. The singer sounds like she could quite possibly be rather fit tho, so I'll naturally accept any free tickets coming my way. ;)

I have found that she's got a love-it-or-hate-it voice, though we're thankfully more on the side of love.

And she's sixteen, you perv. ;)

The show went pretty well, other than some technical foul-ups and Grace's voice faltering a bit toward the end due to the lingering effect of bronchitis. But all in all, I was happy. Scientifically happy.

Cool tracks on the Myspace! Agree with Hound, Ashes and Bone is very catchy. Some very nice basslines from you there too, man!
