G Band
Its been nearly a month since I updated this thing, the truth is I've been rather busy! I've been working at burberry for a month on a temporary basis, it was originally for three weeks, I've got my head down and got stuck in and I've been offered a 6 month contract working in the production department so that starts on Monday! Really enjoyed it up to now and I'm looking forward to a pay rise!
I'm also really looking forward to the next month or so going to be so busy work aside! Saturday 11th November is a key date as we're recording some new songs and for once it's going to be less of a hectic rush (still a rush non-the-less!!) as we'll have a little bit more time to record. We still going by the same 'live' raw recording method as much as possible (because we like it) but it should be cool to add additional guitar parts / acoustic guitar parts / keyboaaaard and what not with the additional time we'll have ahem bought. We're recording a new version of spitfire jukebox, we completly rewrote it a bit ago it's got a better structure and it seems to have gone down pretty well and adds a bit of variation. Our songs seemed to be more developed now, I've got a better idea now of what I need to do for drumparts to make the songs what they are, it's just a case of playing for the song and not overplaying yet keeping things interesting by obviously not playing kick kick snare kick kick snare all the way through!!
New songs then are The High Wire, Arms Of The City. We are also recording an old favourite that we've been playing for well a year now! The exciting thing is after this we'll be heading across down afterwards that same day to play at the slug & fiddle near the ridings centre! So between then
Going into Castelford tonight to see Keith Burton & His Beef Curtain stopping at Reg's then we off to Leeds tomorrow morning where I'm intending to get my hair cut at toni & guy, hani or anyone, any suggestions as to style on a postcard please it really needs cutting and well maybe a new style I don't knowwww! Reg is off to see Paramore I might join him if I can somehow get a ticket on the cheap as it should be a good night out although they debatably aren't very good =D haha anyway its the bronx and the explosion next week as well as the draft and samiam!
Last night my angel empire played at this hotel in doncaster with the mighty g-bone or g-band as the misleading posters falsly advertised. It was a really good night we played very well and we seemed to go down well 100 times bettre than expected!! I was playing on this weird custom kit it sounded awesome but I couldn't position the drums how I normally have them on my yamaha but anyway I got through and we sounded really good I'm sure! The place we played at, the beatles played there and stayed. Downstairs there was this beatles themed bar that had a corrider complete with zebra crossing ala abbey road and loads of memoribilia adorning the walls. An unforgetabble experience, DONNY ON TOUR!
