OK folks... just so you know:
I responded to an add on the Kansas City Backpage.com site
(essentially, the national clearing house for back page adds from
Pitch Weekly, etc.) and was warmly received for an audition with a
drummer, as well as vocalist/keyboardist - the rehearsal was last
Saturday June 23rd. They're looking to form a new band.
I think I was one of two auditioned, and long story short, they liked
me a lot. We got together again this previous Saturday (June 30th) to
jam and work on material and get to know each other better. We've got
some good stuff coming out of it already - pretty raw, but the basic
elements are there and have me chomping at the bit to push the
envelope.
I hope I'm not jumping the gun too terribly much, but the excitement
is too much to keep to myself. We three have strengths and weaknesses
we bring to the table, but as a whole the dynamic for these first
multi-hour sessions has been very interesting. Me and my work, my
style, my habits and such, have never been so well received so I'm
having an absolute ball. Who knows - this might be what I've been
looking for. It's far too early to know what the desires will
ultimately be for my new compatriots... but I'd be silly if I didn't
admit I can imagine this "becoming" One Bad Grandma easily enough if
nobody is too attached to previous ideas, names, concepts and the
like. Let's hope so, eh?
In the interim:
I'm re-mastering tunes I've published previously, in particular those
that have incorrectly low volumes when played in regular car/home
stereo equipment and the like. I'm hoping to accomplish a lot of this
overnight tonight, and have essentially a mini-EP titled "Exile on
Booth" available for July 4th release. If you've received one of my
DiscRevolt promo cards with download credits, you will be able to
download this entire album. At present, I anticipate it will have
seven tracks, and will download for six credits. What, don't have a
card? Hit me up! Of course, if you're gonna hit me up in person, you
may as well hit me up for _the_ CD itself.
