Ch-Ch-Ch-Changes!
Finally got back from our tour of the East Coast with many experiences that will stay with me for a lifetime. I've got to fill orders for "Local's" slippers this weekend. Apparently the local brand slipper is big on the east coast due to its inclusion in the Urban Outfitters catalog. I will come through for sure.
Anyway, I think I can speak for the rest of the band when I say that we all had a great time. We saw a band called Lowercase Blues after a bunch of people suggested that we catch them at the Dewey Beach Music Festival. The response to our set was mixed. I don't think we played loud enough.
When we got back, I went to one of Tim's shows with Upstanding Youth and stayed in the back during most of their set. Coupled with the shows we witnessed on the east coast, that show made me think about the incentive for going to shows. I don't want to hear someone whine or showoff. I want to be entertained, lose myself in the music. As an attendee, I want to get something out of the performance.
I've been thinking of a new name to encompass the new direction I want to take with music and I think I stumbled onto it last night whilst watching Family Guy. "GLADIATOR MICE." Check out the clip. Nonsense. Like the band Fujiya and Miyagi. As the famous ancient greek philosopher Heraclitus said, “Expect the unexpected, or you won’t find it.”
