Well this past week was an amazing music week. Last monday Sierra, Michael Macininey (drums) Eddie Lord (guitar, vocals) and myself were asked if we'd play that night's battle of the bands at New Brookland Tavern to fill the spot of a band that had dropped out. We all decided to do it and that night we played to show. In the process we met the band MiKenPike and their awesome fans. Everyone was very nice. The resonse was inspiring and we gained a new excitement for our new project. Very very soon a brand new website will explain all about whats goin on, but the band isnt broken up, Sierra isnt a Buddist, and I'm not dead, I think. But most importantly, we're practicing, we're writing songs; independently and all together as a band, and we're even playing with the idea of adding some new instruments to the band. And thats the basic idea.
Oh yea, the other thing that made the past week so amazing. Sierra, Michael, Eddie, myself and a few friends of ours went to Georgia to see Five Iron Frenzy. The show was energizing, inspiring, and sad all at the same time, as this is FIF's last tour before they go their seperate ways. It was an amazing show.
Well guys, keep an eye open. Later!

Five Iron Frenzy, yea

 

All hell, cant stop us now,

Last week, Michael Macininey (drums), Sierra Machado (bass), Eddie Lord (vocals, guitar) and myself, (vocals, guitar) played the USC welcome week festival. The show was alot of fun as was the preparation for it. Thank you again to Eddie and Michael for all the hard work. As of now, Guitar Show has a show that Will booked last year at a festival called Fuze 2003 to be held on September 20. Other bands include Cool Hand Luke, and Tiger Bot Hesh. More on that soon as well as other information. Well Im going to go eat now,

From Daniel,

Tonight we won the first round of Black Candle Management's Battle of the Bands. Brian Hamby filled in on the drums having learned the material two days before the show. While Matt Geib filled in on guitar, having learned the material three hours before the show. The explanation for this is that as of Monday morning, David Porth has also left the band, doing so on good terms as Brian Fowler did. Though both of the departures come as a surprise, the band wishes David and Brian the best of luck. As far as the Battle of the Band goes, Sierra and I want to thank Brian Hamby and Matt Geib for their amazing help and congratulate them in the bands success in the competition. We also thank those of you who came out to the show. If you were unable to see this one, we will be playing in the finals on Friday, August 8.

As of last night, Brian Fowler has left the band. His exact reasons are still unclear but he has expressed that he is unhappy playing drums for Guitar Show and is indeed no longer a member of the band. In the mean time the band will prepare as well as possible for the upcoming battle of the bands. When more is known about the future of the band all of the information will be posted here in the news section. In the meantime keep an eye open. In closing the band wishes Brian the best of luck in his future endeavors and thanks him for his friendship and his contribution to the band.

The New Brookland Tavern is holding a Battle of the Bands all throughout late July and early August and the band has been offered a spot on Monday July 21at 11:15pm. One of the cool things about the contest is that the audience judges the competition. Hopefully you guys will be able to come check it out. In other news, the time has come to mail our demos out into the world of the "music business". Brian has been researching a few labels and we're finally gonna mail the new recording out and see what happens so I'll try to keep you guys posted on that. Well I'll be updating again soon, later guys,
