Perhaps my rockstar days aren't over yet! I spent the weekend in the devastating heat (possibly the hottest day in Duluth history this past Saturday) working on music with Jess and Sean. I'd been bumming for the past few years because it seemed that all of my previous collaborators had done foolish things, like getting married, having children, becoming total assholes, etc., and had left me out on my drummer ass. Yet now an opportunity has arisen from the most unlikely of places!
Right now we're just sort of piecing things together, getting acquainted with music editing software and establishing what we still need: such as a bitchin' female vocalist--Jess is a writer, but apparently not much else, and I sing, but I think some of the more feminist songs would sound a little out of place with my voice haha. I guess I ought to consider buying a new drumkit, because naturally this collective couldn't have come about two years ago when I sold my old ones and I'm going to get sick of punching the DR-670 really quickly. Guess that new camera is getting pushed further back on the priority list... Small sacrifice for this chance of resurrecting a voice I thought had been silenced years ago.
More on this, and perhaps links to some music, as things progress
