The Demo is near

Greetings, fellow homo sapiens (and anyone else who may be reading). 


I'm sitting at work (don't tell me boss) with nothing to do, listening to the stuff we've been recording, and let me tell you, it sounds AWFUL!


Okay, just a joke. It's not that bad.  I actually kind of like. A lot. I friggin' love it!  I've been learning a few things here and there about recording and mixing (thanks, Google), and the songs are really seeing the fruits of my websurfing. 


The demo is going to be four songs long, and gets progressively harder and more aggressive. We've finished drum tracks on three of them, and (hopefully) will finish the fourth tonight.  Then it's just guitars, bass, and vocals.  The vocals will be tricky, but I'm hoping that we get everything done by the end of next week. Oh wow, how nice that would be!


As soon as the demo's out, we'll be sending to every venue we can possibly think of (mostly in southern alberta, but we wanna hit the road and get touring next summer, so we'll be shipping them all over the country and into the northwestern US), so hopefully we'll have some shows spring up because of it!  We'll also post the demo here, on facebook, and myspace, as well as some live video on youtube (that should be going up pretty quick).  


Oh, and the Tshirts are great!  We've sold 16, and are nearly broken even! If you want a sweet WTF T-shirt, drop me an email or a FB message or a phone call or a text or a snail mail letter or a postcard or a sticky note on my bedroom wall or a comment to this post or if you yell really loud i may hear it too.  


That's it for today.  Thanks for keeping up with us, I promise we'll have some music and some more shows for you real soon!

PS, The show on Friday at the New Black was wicked.  Thanks again to everyone who showed up, who helped out in anyway, who bought a shirt, who yelled "hey" in that one song, or who even thought about coming!
