My new gig.

Sign in to disble this ad
Thought I'd share my new gig with you guys. A little background is needed first. I'm a punk rock kind of guy, run the amps wide open and hammer down, yunno? Well, I had this girl who wanted to do a blues/soul demo and I offered to let her do it in my studio. Somehow through a confusing round about chain of events, I've managed to build a a blues/soul band with her. It's fun, but at the same time I have to ask myself "How the **** did this happen!?" Anyone with a similar experience?

Well, there was this time we were all ready to play All Along the Watchtower at a practise, which somehow became some Fall Out Girl rubbish

That's awesome.

Something like that happened to me. I was a metal guy, now I'm in a Southern rock/Soul group and have no intention of looking back.
