O2 Academy, Drums n Hangovers

Hello Friends,
Tom and Ants were attending a wedding on Friday and it seems they had a couple of foaming ales too many or they had a half bottle
hidden in the sporran. As you can imagine, they were more than a bit 'delicate' on the Saturday, so it wasn't great timing that
we were booked to record drums in the studio, me thinks thats the last thing you want to hear with a hangover eh?
I had a ball blasting out the drum parts over and over again while Tom and Ants must have wished they had a gun.
Through the loud noises and the hangovers I'm pleased to report we did manage to get the drums sorted for two tracks.
This week we will be rehearsing for the O2 Academy gig on Saturday, can't wait for that one. I've been to see James (amazing band)
and Deacon Blue (Dougie Vipond is class when he isn't talking about football) there in the last couple of years. I would
say the James gig was the best I've ever been to (apart from all Oswald gigs of course), the place was jumping, great venue.
Make sure you are there on Saturday, Oswald needs you.

Maggie May's

Short 30min set at Maggie May's Glasgow on Friday, first time I'd played there though not the first for Tom n Ants. Thanks to all at Maggie Mays for a warm welcome. Was also the very first airing of our new track Carnage.

In The Studio....

In the studio last night putting together another new track which is shaping up really nice. It's got a great groove to it and a cracking bass-line.
