Hey, Brian - how are you guys planning to release this material? Local CD sales? Internet CD sales? Internet streaming? The recording industry has changed so much the past few years, I'm always curious to see how less-than-famous bands who are doing serious recording plan to put their stuff out. Seems to me record companies will be a thing of the past before too long...

I think initially we will be focusing locally, as we are still building our electronic plan of attack. A couple of months to go though, so still plenty of time to change things up

Here she is 'in action' - we just finished our first video, and are pretty pleased. A bit stiffer on camera than real-life, but that'll pass

Don't miss the cleaver chop at the end...

Cool, Brian!

It probably not cool to introduce a Spinal Tap quote here, but all I could think while watching this was the Tap album cover conversation ("What's wrong with being sexy?").

Smell the glove!!

Hmmm... gonna go out on a limb and guess that you're not referring to the band

As some useless trivia, the girl and 'The Captor' are married - it was an interesting dynamic.

Oh, it was totally about having a chick bound and forced to "Smell The Glove"

On the band side of things, it was interesting to see that you have a straight up singer... in my mind, I had a James Hetfield kinda guy pictured, low slung axe and whatnot...

Sean can play a bit of guitar, but we're a true 4-piece. While we wouldn't turn down the right shredder, we've never felt the need for another guitarist 'just because'. I think that's one of the reasons that I love the Thumb so much - the tone is inherently enough that it adds fullness and texture to the guitar range and really distinguishes the low-mids, but it stays out of the way of the punchy kick that we're going for.

The bass is in excellent condition, I've treated her very well. Also, I have all of the original MEC electronics, and I will throw those in just in case you want to take the bass back to stock condition.

I'm only asking $2999, but I will entertain offers. No trades, please, I need cash to pay for my new Roscoe when it's ready.



That thing still for Sale ??
