Another live band karaoke gig, and, due to the holiday schedules, another new singerbabe MC. She already wants me to work with her band, too.



The rich keep getting richer. Back to the main band, coming off of holiday hiatus, tomorrow night.

I would find it hard to decline an offer like that.

Meanwhile, back in the main band:


Tiny cafe, difficult to photograph well in, and we did the "lite quartet" thing, including a first-ever drum-less performance of a Simple Minds number.

Charter membership in this club is more exclusive than a billionaire boys club. There are moments when yeti, 'Agent and myself are all envious of each other's gig.

To start the next thread of this club, I shall publish the images of singerbabes working with the charter and honorary charter members, in the chicks-at-shows style to which that we have become accustomed.

Thanks! We spent all day at the scrapyard shooting our press pics (which can of course also be found at our website), and this was one of them. I'm quite fond of this one too:

And then we found cables. Lots of them.

Here is a singer that myself and a drummer friend used to back a few years ago. We had a good run playing for her all over Hollywood and at different spots in LA as well. Her name is Chelsea.

Ha! She took "career opportunities" when she could get them. She took a hiatus from music and was on a couple of reality tv shows. I think after all that she reformed an all girl group and would perform at Laker games at halftime and stuff like that. I got married around that same time of her break, and I live 1.5 hours from Hollywood (when traffic is good) and I just didn't have time for it either way.

Haha, obviously!
