All set to ROCK!

Had a great rehearsal last night, every little thing fell into place and everyone is confident and ready to rock out at our first show NEXT WEEK!?! after all the time spent practicing, learning, relating, filming, buggin' out and generally anticipating this performance, I'm excited and not the least bit nervous (yea right).

CRUNCH TIME!

With our first gig coming up on the 17th, and not having had a rehearsal for a month, it is now officially CRUNCH TIME! So we're having rehearsal tonight, this Sunday night then the Sunday before the Monday show. Its no big deal, no pressure, all's well (well maybe not!) but since we've never rehearsed that much ever, it can only be a good thing!

Joey and I have been in contact and discussed a good many things (including wardrobe!) and he and I are totally on the same page, Scott is still preparing to take over the world starting with Japan and Rich just wants to do a gig or two...

IPO!

Tony and I have been discussing on and off over the past few weeks how his film is going to conclude/resolve. We've batted around a lot of different scenarios and have not come up with a completely satisfying resolution however, I just got an email from David Bash (luminary in the Power POP world) who has invited us to appear at his International Pop Overthrow convention in New York in November! How much more perfect could that be than to be able to perform in front of our EXACT TARGET AUDIENCE!? I know I'm jumping the gun by posting this here and now since I haven't confirmed this with the band or with David yet but I'm simply going to assume that we're doing it (we'd be crazy not) cause THIS IS THE MISSING PIECE that Tony and I have been looking for!

Recording and appearing?

Going into the studio in September to begin recording our FIRST RECORD (that's an old fashion term meaning CD to you youngsters). Not only that, but we have our first gig planned for September. Looks like September is gonna be a good month!

Joey's back from his tour

and the band reached a new high, bangin' out the set at last Thursday night's rehearsal with only a few bobbles (all from the newest songs) which we quickly ironed out. All in all, AWESOME for not having rehearsed in three weeks!

I Finally Feel Like We Are Actually Ready To Play In Front Of People.

Rough Cut?

Got the word from Tony that he and his editor actually have a rough cut of our "docu/mocku/rockumentary"! Can't wait to see it even though its not finished, how could it be since we haven't even appeared in public yet! and isn't that what the show is about; our journey from failure 27 years ago to the rock and roll idoltry which we hope to attain this time around?

Had another intimate rehearsal with Scott and Rich in his basement this week, which went well (even though it was short) and of course the three of us had fun, in between sorting out the frayed nerve endings of a very sensitive bass player who shall remain nameless...

Konichi-wa!~

Hello Japan! Been getting a TON of hits on this site from the mystical east, land of the rising sun. And they have been downloading mp3's like crazy! (someone finally figured that out). I hope you enjoy all the stuff you got FOR FREE, sometime soon I'm gonna start charging for it, so get it while the gettin's good!
