"Open the chest once more..."
Jenn and I had practice again. Yesterday, Saturday.
It's been so long.
I think this is the longest we have ever been without practice since we started playing together. If not, it's certainly up there. Heck, even when we first started and our practices were so spread out (and we weren't really serious about banding and so forth), they were still about once a month.
To be fair, we did have informal practice(s) when I came up to visit on the 20th and 21st of October. This time, though, I used my *amp*, and Jenn used her kit.... we could open up again, raise beautifully infernal music and so forth.
And we were so out of practice. Well, *I* was.
But we got stuff done. New ideas and musical textures for Leper especially, which is encouraging since it's been soooo long writing it.
And now, I have a few new ideas myself (as of today) for Hero's Pyre. Ideas that I think sound really really cool *easily impresses self*
Isn't it wonderful when the dead things won't stay dead? *smile*
"Fly to a dream
Far across the sea
All the burdens gone
Open the chest once more
Dark chest of wonders
Seen through the eyes
Of the one with pure heart
Once so long ago"
