Happy Holidays!!

Happy Holidays Everyone!

I hope everyone’s holiday season has been safe and happy!

Rev Coffee on Wednesday nights has been excellent!! I know that I’ve been noticeably absent for the most part from Open Mic for the past month… I have been stopping by!! I just haven’t been able to stay. We’ve had a steady amount of players every time I’ve been in. This past week (which I did stay the whole time to run the system :D ) we had 12 different players/groups. We had a good jam session with Dale’s time slot about half way through and then we had an awesome drum jam at the end headed up by new comer Ismail. The energy was amazing and I encourage all of you to try to make it out some Wednesday to enjoy our local flavor!

Gigs coming up for Minutes to Live!! We’re playing at Rosebuds on the 21st and should have a gig at Caribou in Marietta sometime in the week of January 11th. I have a gig at Rev on the 15th, which Mike might come and play with me, but I haven’t gotten a definite on that yet. We’re adding some percussion in the new year, so watch for new recordings! Also, Mike’s bound and determined to get some video feed up on youtube in the coming month. J

We’re still looking for a bass player for SNM. Until we can find a good and reliable one, I think we’re going to put the project on hold. Playing with a full band in the last couple of months has reminded me of how wonderful a full sound can be and how important having people you share not only a common goal musically with, but a common life ideal as well. Hopefully, we’ll find a bass player who will be a perfect fit soon!!! If you know of anyone or might be interested in the position yourself, drop me a line!

Alright everyone! Have a safe and fun New Year!

Peace, Love, and Music!
