‘So this is the new year’
Hey,
We had a band meeting on Sunday minus Bruce ‘Da Funk’ Arnett who is snowboarding in a country with snow. It was good, as we discussed all manner of band related things while eating some nice pub food, drinking and watching Charlton draw with Chelski. Other than the general stuff, I guess the only thing of interest for anyone else would be.. T-shirts are coming soon!
We’ve been working on new songs, one of them is sounding great I think.. but as Brown said in rehearsal the other night ‘I don’t know how good this is as I have no reference point for this song’, which I think indicates the exciting point that we are getting to as a band and why we need more new songs so we can debase ourselves creatively thus debasing rock as it is required.
On a general note, music is a strange thing isn’t it? I often think that the media channels that have to interpret, rationalise and attempt to understand or label bands and artists don’t have an easy job at all. Personally, when trying to explain why something is better than something else, I find that I never do it justice. It always reminds me of the bit in the film D.A.R.Y.L (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0088979/) where he says he likes one kind of ice cream rather than another because it tastes better, proving that he is more human than robot.
So yeah, we were reviewed by God is in the TV
(http://www.giittv.hypnotisingsilence.net/reviews/pearlydemo.htm) and it’s good, a fair, considered review which is refreshing. I’ll probably write something on the forum about it at some point and say cheers. Check out their website, it’s good and they put on gigs sometimes too.
Anyway, I’m going to a distinct lack of gigs in the next few weeks but I’m going to keep my eyes peeled for anything that looks good..
