This is no big deal, but I think it's a nifty little story:
So I'm in two bands, both of which share the same practice space, and last night at practice for one band (Frizz-Bee), my roommate (coincidentally the drummer for the other band, The Red Line) decided to come along because he didn't have anything better to do. So we worked our way through practice and he sat at his own drum set and just leaned against the wall taking it in, but at the end Frizz-Bee's drummer had to leave pretty quickly (which is normal for him) and the guitard and I sat down to noodle around for a little bit (which is normal for us, we get some good writing done in that time). Well, at one point the guitard and I had a good groove going on our own when suddenly my roommate got the inspiration to join in, and a good groove turned into a GREAT groove, then the singer felt inspired and started riffing over what we were doing, and suddenly what usually is a ten minute noodle session turned into a 45 minute jam between the drummer of one band and the guitard of another, and I must admit, they meshed very well. We also pulled a 12 bar out of our asses that managed to not sound like Stevie Ray and sound a little more like Zeppelin and The Blue Man Group mixed together, if that makes any sense.
All in all, a good night. I'm thinking this may lead to some crossover stuff in future gigs...
