some of you may or may not recognize me - I was in a band called Furious George which broke up last summer. But that was ok, because a month later, I got a job offer in the Philadelphia area.
Well, I immediately sought out bands. I had so many replies, and so many odd try-outs. I really wanted to play with good musicians this time and NOT do a 'start-up" if possible. It took MONTHS, much longer than I thought it would. Some bands definitely play the "age card" - anyone over 31 need not apply. *sigh*. Other bands wanted to play only originals (not for me - I have no interest in being signed or touring. I just want to have some part-time fun!). Still others were "wanna-bees" - not as good as they thought they were.
Well finally found a good situation - the former members of "Mudshovel" wanted to go in a more mainstream cover direction than they had. Between their old sets and Furious George's, we quickly patched together 50 songs to play out.
And our first gig is March 18th!!
Also, I've been working on a website for them (and a blog):
