Thanks for the cds! I really liked the song #4,"one little step", got an R.E.M. vibe which I love. Werent we in band, chorus and public speaking classes in highschool together!? ha ha I forget. Were aint so bad for Flambeu High alumni, we clean up well! Hey I put you by Robert De Niro in my top friends, among good company. SHEMONSTER WAZ HERE! ;)
Hey thanks for the add! We are gonna try and put songs up asap, but we arn't to sure how we are gonna do it haha. and a few weeks ago our drummer was lifting weights and dropped 70 pound dumbells on both of his hands...he lost the tips of his middle and ring fingers on his left hand. YIKES! hes out for a good two months...so we are a little delayed in the drumming category haha -Chris
Thanks for looking me up. Sorry, I'm a little slow at getting back to you. I haven't been "myspacing" alot lately. Keep at it you got some good stuff here.
Bill "The Thrill" Galetka! One of the best guitar players I have ever seen! You're an all around great musician. You inspired me to pick up a guitar and I thank you for that!
Hey Bill- Thanks for the Add! Be sure to check out TRUCK OF SALT, on my Top Friends. It's a site dedicated to my original music projects. Everything here sounds great, hope we can connect again very soon! Pat
Excuse me....I want to ask you how to get a Lepers Pen cd. ha ha Looks like we moved to the warmest areas possible after suffering Wisconsin winters in high school all those years! Have a "cool" summer and God bless.....
hey i just started a new band with a few friends we called it..."two nights to still autumn" im excited, we just started writing our first songs! Aunt betsy said theat we could even record a demo eventually over there if uncle bob gets his recording equipment set back up...if we practice really hard, i suppose we could make one by the end of summer, just a few tracks anyways. But my guitar playing is starting to come along somewhat, i can play alomost any standard chord you ask, and bar chords and power chords are getting easier...i havnt really fooled around with scales riffs or solos yet tho. I think im gonna get on that tho! haha. how hhave you been?!?!?!
