Practice this tuesday, Feb. 21st @ 3:00 @ Ronnie's house! Be prepared to be recorded!
I am not so sure if I will be recording the demo for the possible gig, though. Sounds like we have lost
our bass player....can hardly do a show without Matt! The good news is that Nick has found a replacement! His
name is Adam, and he has played guitar in the past...but never the bass....but he is going to try to learn the bass, for the
band! Video will be taken to put up on the web site though!
----------------------------------
Practice this Tuesday, Feb. 14th at 3:00 at Ronnie's! Peggy will not be there....so we need to have
some material worked out for Beth and Cathy to work on. You guys have any suggestions?
I have a possible gig lined up for Double Zero! We would be the opener at a benefit on March 18th at
Agner Hall in Lawrenceburg. I know...it is a Saturday night....but our time slot would be anywhere from 6-9. Night
shifters can get 10:00 starts....haven't thought much about dayshifters yet...we got over a month, get those special requests
in now! Bad part is....we would be playing for free...it is a benefit.....but the exposure would be huge! The
person in charge of the benefit wants me to make her a tape, so she can hear us. I told her I would have a video done
in 2 weeks. So be planning on me videoing practice on the 21st...I would start next week but we won't have a bass player.
----------------------------------------------
Next Practice....Tuesday, Feb. 7th @ 3:00 at Ronnie's house! Let's have some PA money this week.
Andrew wants to get together at his house this thursday around 1:00!
Last practice was very interesting! We had 2 newcomers! Welcome Beth and Kathy! You two
sounded awesome on "Break Away"! Andrew's wife, Juleia...sorry about the spelling, has also attended tha last 2 practices...and
has sounded fantastic on "Malibu"! Things are starting to come together guys! We have so much potential...it is
unbelievable! The Harmonizing match-ups we now have...wow! We can go all different directions now.
Andrew....how do you feel about going in a different direction with your set? You will keep all
the songs you already have...but why don't we start working on all those originals songs that you have written?
Could make things even more interesting! Just an Idea..let me know what you think.
-----------------------------------------------
Next Practice....Tuesday, Jan. 31st. at 3:00! Repeat...AT 3:00!!!!! Andrew...your usual time
is kewl...that gives us 2 hours to work on Peggy's stuff...and 2 hours for you, when you get there.
I would Like the next practice to run like this...First hour is to work on the 2 new songs, and the second
hour, we run through all the previous songs....doing this for both Peg and Andrew. The songs to work on are at
the bottom of this e-mail.
PA finances....we still need to address the PA finances. Total cost of the PA was $840. We have 5
core members that want to dedicate themselves to Double Zero. That breaks everything down to $168 per share. Nick
and Ronnie are in $120. Andrew is in $40. Peggy is in $260. And I am in $300. So if we could address
this situation at tuesday's practice and get some of this taken care of it would be great.
Songs to work on for next Practice...Peggy "Your Little Secret" and "My Favorite Mistake" Andrew...."My
Own Worst Enemy" and "Remedy".
--------------------------------------------
Practice went great on tuesday! Peggy is really starting to master those 3 songs that we worked on!
I liked how things went during this practice...working on those 3 songs till we had them down. You guys did a great
job! Way to hold that microphone Peg!
I got a song Idea. Dr. Hook's "undercover angel"! But we change the words to "Undercover Angel,
Midnight Amputee.....Nub me, Nub me, Nub me"...I will get to work on the rest of the words later in the week...lol.
For those of you who were not at practice yesterday...you have no idea what that is all about...lol. Ya missed out...it's
no telling what you will miss if you don't make practice!
I am still working on getting the other half of the band together this thursday. I sent the band members
involved an E-mail with the others phone numbers, so they can call each other and get things organized amongst themselves.
Next "for sure" practice will be next Tuesday at the usual time at Ronnie's place. I would also like
to have a practice set up for next thursday for Andrew and the boys who are off on thursday. Use the practice board
to get your times all sorted out.
