Just had the first practical practice since the fly by night gig since most band practices (Since the recording of Here We Go) we sit down listen to the new weekly mixes and make notes of whats wrong and levels and so on.
Latest mix was of the gnarly female vocals which are amazing (Not as good as my backup vocals though, i know, james singing on a CD=fail. But it is there)
So tonight was our first time playing as a band in about 2months so what did we decide to do , not play all the songs we just recorded and know off by heart, but play the songs we hadn't played in over a year and one song, Sharp Dressed Man (Long Live ZZ) we hadn't played in 2 years so as you would expect there was a lot of scratching heads thinking, oh no theres a bridge coming up and dont remember it at all. But a good key (no pun intended) is just to solo through all the bits you dont know which is awesome as well.

But all i remembered about sharp dressed man is that it had 39 A's in a row.

But i must say jamming is the funnest thing as you can do what ever you want and you can drag 3minute song out to a 30minute song.

Long Live Rock and Roll

PS: Dont forget you can buy the CD Here's to you off iTunes or off me personally because your helping a good cause because at the moment i have no drinks in the fridge at the shed :(

  1. ZZTOP! And damn we don't have the equipment/singer/bassist to jam with...

    ....plus theres normally a fricken car in the way, so I can't jump around and play like a jump-around-and-play-like-a-bitch-bitch.
