What I Did Instead

Except maybe that first song I'd swear I heard that tune before.

Pretty cool stuff thanks for sharing.

Hey which one is you?

Yeah, we tacked that onto the front of our first tune, just for fun. It's currently the only 'cover' we do. I wasn't aware that you knew The Anacreontic Song, however.

I'm the old fat bass player on the right, in the stripey shirt with the peace symbol. I'm also the one who wrote and sings Partners In Crime.

Awesome Steve. Good to see you back on instruments.

Now, start touring and work Copenhagen into the schedule.

[Arclight]

Nice one, keep on rocking.

Go easy on me when you do take over the world.

[HunterICX]

Very nice, Steve

A little disappointed there wasn't any guitar burning but otherwise top marks.

Would be nice, and touring Europe and Asia would be awesome. But one thing at a time. First we have to convince the local crowd we're good enough, and original enough, to actually pay to see us. For now it's still bars and clubs.

Thanks! As for burning guitars, we're musicians, not showmen. And too poor. The one you see is the one I have!

I'll tell Clay you said that. Ain't nothin' like the blues, and we have several more where that one came from. Funny story about that song: One week later we played at a place called Burt's Tiki Lounge. We opened for four other bands, all Punk acts. A friend said that when we started 'Devil's Knock' a couple of the punk kids were making jokes about "that blues crap", but by the end they were cheering too.

And another one: When the last band at Burt's was getting ready to play, one of them told me "Man, we're glad we weren't the ones who had to follow you guys!" Maybe I'm bragging a little, but it felt good to have another musician tell me that.

Well, I wouldn't waste that kind of money for a bar gig, even if it became a complete 4-hour set. But here's a deal: If we do ever become 'known', and actually do go on a tour, I'll put up our schedule here. Any subsim member who can make a show only has to ask me here, and free tickets for friends and family will be forthcoming.

You have to by our records, though!

And, as always, special thanks to Neal!

Okay now what were really waiting for... pictures of the groupies

This kind of music isn't usually my cup of tea, but that was pretty fracking awesome Steve! Your account of the music did not do it justice.

Hypothetically speaking, what would it cost to play at the next subsim meet, assuming that it is held in Galveston again?
