2 Shows Next Week

So next week is pretty big. Unfortunately the shows are Wednesday and Thursday, which is bad if you have to work. But at least they're not during Blazer games!

Wednesday BW/C at the Ast St, show starts at 9pm. We play last, so probably around 11. This is a huge show for us as it is our first actual show. We've played a few open mics, but this is the real deal. Brian Bergstrom is playing lead guitar for us, so we'll be a 4 piece for the first time. Also, we'll have our new EP for sale at the show. If there is any way you can make it out, please do so. We want to make a big splash on the scene and no better way than to pack the house. We've been working up some new tunes and really hammering out the harmonies. It's a challenge as Sasha and myself have never really sung before, but it'll be well worth it.

Thursday John O'Mara at Kelly's Olympian. Show starts at 9, we have the middle slot. John's CD is also just coming out, so you can pick it up at the show. We've added a keyboard player to the lineup. Small world, his name is Jeremy and I played a show with him in The Nights years ago, he was the lead guitarist. We've been practicing real hard also and are very excited to introduce the new lineup and album to you.

Both of these shows are very exciting because they are new, and great effort and time as been put into ironing out the arrangements for maximum effect on stage. For me, this is what it's all about. Live rock and roll on stage just for you. The endless hours of rehearsal that goes into a 40 minute show are mind boggling, but the end result when it all falls into place- that's why I get up in the morning!
