While I didn’t actually announce it on this site, I have officially announced that I left Broken Ground. Its time and nothing personal between me and the other guys. Everything is on good terms.NOW, onto what I’ve been up to. SHEMONSTER was offered to open for Billy Idol next month, then after receiving the news that Billy’s band couldn’t do the gig, they then asked us to play WITH Billy. The problem? SHEMONSTER is only a three piece! So, I came up with a plan. I asked the members of my Dayton band EM5 to play the SHEMONSTER music AND Billy’s music. However, as the music industry goes, things did not exactly pan out. Logistical reasons stopped us from actually getting the gig. The point, is that the offer was on the table, and that is good news.Not getting discouraged, SHEMONSTER is not losing a step. Victoria had her friend Bret send the master files to our next tune that I will be recording in early September. This is a rocker folks! I can’t WAIT for you to hear it. I’m BEYOND excited about this track. I also think we’re going to make some mixing adjustments to “Death By Texas” so if you want a copy of the current version for your collection, iPod or whatever, let me know and I’ll get it to ya.
Speaking of recordings, EM5 did some recording of some cover songs earlier this summer. I’ll see where my brother is on the mixing and get some of those tracks up on the website here soon.
OH! While I’m on the subject of the website, I’m happy to announce that April Smith (the designer) is on board for the NEW af.com site. I’ll be compiling the materials here the next few weeks and production shall begin! Any suggestions that you’d like to see on the new site? EMAIL THEM TO ME!
I hope everyone’s summer is going well! I should have more news here soon…
Luv ya! :^)
