Oh dear! I haven't blogged in over a week, I got lazy once again! No no, I didn't get lazy, I may have forgotten about you a little bit though. Oh the shame!
It's the Easter weekend! Bunnies laying chocolate eggs, it's a christmas miracle!! What??? ♫
The gig at the Cambie last weekend -opening for Growler, what a weird gig that was! I was planned to only do 15 minutes, and so I have 3 songs prepared, play while the band set up behind me kind of thing right? My very talented friend Alfons Fear showed up to play trumpet with me, very gracious of him. Halfway through my second song a drunk lead-singer, who shall remain nameless since I don't know his name, wanted me off the stage. So we quickly finished and left. Weird! The response was lovely, the crowd really appreciated it and I had many people from the audience chat with me afterwards.

Rehearsals for the new band are going great! We'll be marching around you soon enough, watch out! So many great musicians are involved, and I've got us planned to do our first of many gigs June 6th at Openspace here in Victoria BC, for a show called "Wedding Party".
