So, there's been a shitload going on.
The band played tonight. We played the local open mic for the second time, two weeks after playing for the first time. Unfortunately (or fortunately, 'cause we made some contacts), there were a number of other bands there tonight. Therefore, we only got to play four songs. In fact, it was only going to be three, until the guitarist from one of the other bands went up to the host and told him he wanted to hear more. That's kind of a microcosm of how the night went, which is to say very well. The crowd was really digging our stuff, and it was really truly exciting to be playing our originals, and to look around the room to a bunch of people bobbing their heads and feet.
One of the guys from one of the other bands came up to me after the show and asked me for some contact info. (...and he was wearing a Quadrophenia T-Shirt, so he must fucking rule.) Anyhow, he said he was planning on trying to get a show together soon, and said he'd like to try to have us open. ...which suits us fine, 'cause right now we've got about an hours worth of original stage material. So, life is really good on that front right now.
Work has been busy. Enough about work.
The car -- I have a new car. :) Well, not quite yet. However, I will have a new car come this Saturday. I'll then take it to get the tires and rear brakes fixed, and all will be well. I'll likely have it all set, and registered and all after Thanksgiving. (Since I'm hitting the road for home late Tues. or early Wed. - that doesn't leave much time.)
So, it's just settling in that it's really 1:23am. Don't worry, I'm still angsty, occasionally cynical, and sometimes lonely. So I'll write about that stuff later. Just not right now. Right now I'm happy and sleepy. :)
