  • Well, it's on to The New Band.........

    ...and we've had 4 rehearsals so far. It's not metal, but it's heavy..3-piece bass, drums & guitar.
    I'm mostly playing the 7-string UVMC and the DNA clone and I can't decide if we'll play out with the Marshall or Vox amps. I'm leaning towards the Vox.
    New drummer is f'kn great and he's got an original blue-tinted clear Ludwig Octaplus kit (8 toms) which looks just like the old Rat Race Choir drum kit- if any of you remember back that far....Bass player has a see-through blonde Fender Jazz/rosewood neck playing through Ampeg stuff.
    So far we've worked up heavy versions of some cover tunes:

    Littlewing
    Saw Her Standing There
    Lucille
    Kashmir
    Really Got Me
    Custard Pie
    Livin Lovin Maiden
    Black Magic Woman
    The Ocean

    I'm excited about the Zep stuff 'cause I'm told I actually sound a bit like Plant on the vocals. We're headed into the studio for the obligatory demo recordings....website will be up after the holidays......we'll have sound and video clips too..

    It's always fun during the honeymoon-stage of a band.

          So you changed the name of the song to give it an Iron Maiden vibe?
          I feel my soul go cold... only the dead are smiling.

            I'm having one made as we speak.
            Guy out of Florida has quite a talent for them. I should have it within the next month.

            Don't get me wrong - Strats are the best, but the Ibeenhads are like racecars - hot roded strats really...I love 'em.
