Singin' Songs

For whatever reason (probably because it's a cool track), I've been singing the song Cyprian by some old friends ASL. Vocalist of my group from... shit 10 years ago, really?!  Anyways, Guinevere sings on the ASL EP version of that track, and it's stuck in my head.

Anyways, I'm still stoked on the newest Trunk tunes, and looking forward to moving on distributing the EP (FINALLY!). It'll allow us permission to work on newer music (and some of the old, unrecorded tunes). Finding a bass player would be nice, but we're in no hurry, as we've got no upcoming shows.

I've been sitting on trying to get ourselves into Pasadena. I should work on that. Think I will. Talk at ya later!

New Beginnings...

Whoohooo!!!

In my endless need to type letters, string them into words/sentences, organize them into paragraphs, and make myself feel important...

Here's yet another blog... but this one is about...

TRUNK!!!

Yesterday, Sieron and I got together, he was eager to show me a new song he'd been working out at home.  All week I'd been hearing tales of how Presley had been responding to the new tune, about how much she's rocking out to it (and for a baby who can recognize the greatness of Tool and Radiohead at just a few weeks old, I'd say she's an excellent judge of content). 

...and she was right!  Sieron was playing the riff as I was paying my half of the hourly rent, and I could hear the "it" factor of a tune I like to hear.  I asked what it was when I got back into the room, and he said it was the track he'd been working on.  We briefly discussed some of the percussion ideas he had for it, and started working right away.  By the end of practice, it was nice to have that idea solidified.
