OK, so the meeting still hasn't happened yet. Coincidentally, everyone double booked themselves. But this is a small pothole in the long road to rock. We will be rescheduling for a weekend in the near future to sit down, pound back a few pints and manifest the genesis of a sound that's pure and honest.
In the meantime I'm making the best of my day to day work commute by writing words and melodies. With my trusty composition book and digital voice recorder at my side I have no doubt that I look completely nuts singing softly to myself on the subway in order to get the songs in my head onto paper. I call it guerrilla song writing. I honestly could care less what my fellow commuters think as long as I get shit done. You can check the link on the sidebar to read the lyrics I've been coming up with. Hopefully I'll end up with dozens of songs and I can pick the best ones to present to the new band when we start jamming in January. Feel free to leave me with feedback, eventually I plan to post raw tracks there too.
I've also dragged out my old Applause acoustic/electric. It's an Ovation knock off. It sounds decent enough. It's a round back and really lightweight but I've been neglecting it for years. I took it to Capsule music on Queen st. to get it all cleaned up and set-up. I get to pick it up tomorrow night.
As for the cover band audition, no word yet. Looks like they have one more singer to audition before they make their decision. No worries, I'm in no hurry.
Yeah, I may encounter potholes and obstacles on my journey, but I plan to stay positive and keep moving forward on... the long road to rock.
