Sorry, it's only been a week and already i'm slipping. here are a few updates from the band camps:
Sleepless Nights
After our snow-bound trek to le Nouveau Brunswick last week, we played a riotous show at the Grawood (the Dalhousie University campus bar) with New Brunswickians Grand Theft Bus. The show was packed, we drank a lot and we had an awesome time. I saw so many people out at the show that I didn't know went to shows and/or that I bet didn't know I played in a band (or several). All around, awesome show.
Tonite we had our weekly practice, started practicing a couple new tunes, and prepared ourselves for the upcoming weekend voyage to Fredericton. God I love Fredericton. Always a ridiculous amount of fun there. I can't wait. No weather bombs this time!
The Establishment
We have reverted back to our comittment of weekly practices, starting this week, and we ended up writing a brand new song which is really great. We only have one lyric for it so far, but it's something like "Set your legs on fire, run away." Pinky wrote it (sorta). This marks the first time he wrote lyrics for the Estab.
We're also getting ready to mix and master our recordings for the 7". That will happen (hopefully) within the next two weeks.
Trevor Murphy
I have decided that due to a lack of monetary funding, and a lack of playing solo shows these days, I would put up the demos I recorded in Quinan this summer - which I planned on releasing as a mini-EP kinda thing - on the MySpace. You can also download the planned cover art if you're feeling swanky and burn the tracks on to a CD so it's like you really did buy it - except it's free.
Quiet Parade
I decided I should make a MySpace site for us this week, and at our next practice I'm going to attempt to record some live tracks for that purpose. Also, to show everyone how awesome it will be.
