The Gig, March 2

Hey Soul Mates,
first off thanks to everyone who slogged through the heavy mist to come see us Wednesday. And thanks to everyone from around the globe who wished us luck. I tell you if we lived 2 hours North that would have been snow falling.

The set was a lot of fun. Of course, the Gig has the curtain so we can do a fairly dramatic entrance. We kicked off the night with Sucka; which we haven't done in some time. The show also featured our newest song A Talent For Loving. I finished writing it a day before the show and was still backstage memorizing the phrasing as the curtain was about to go up. There were 6 different lyrics for the song, but I went with the most lively set since the song has such a groove.

We had Patrick and Rob videoing with 2 cameras, so it will be interesting to see how we look to you all. Multiple angles and all. Patrick has become our semi-official videographer. Eventually we'll have more video on line for you to watch.



The crowd was great. You all were into it from the get go and there were lots of you there. Around 50-60 (plus those there to see the other acts). It's always fun to see everyone dance to Excommunication, sway to Everyone's Ingenue and sing along with Done Lost My Mind. The funniest moment came when we dedicated Ingenue to our buddy James aka Biggy, in Scotland. Bryan said that the song is about a "she." I said "well, I don't think I specify the sex in the chorus, do I?"

We got lots of good feedback after the show. There were several industry folks there that had glowing things to say and very constructive things to say. I couldn't be more pleased. The best is when you, the audience are into what we are doing on stage. That's the greatest compliment of all.

Here's the set list:
Sucka
Excommunication
Fall Out
Down By Love
Majestic Rejection
A Talent For Loving (debut)
Everyone's Ingenue
She Wants 2 Move
Done Lost My Mind
The Isolation
Love Someone

We'll see you back at the Gig on April 7.
Love, Power, Peace

Regarding Michael

Hey Soul Mates,
this is kinda cool. My good friend Mike who runs DVD Movie Central asked if he could post my Michael Jackson blog on his website. And there it is. Just click the link above. Of course, if you visit my blog with any regularity, you've read it. But if you are into movie + DVD releases his website is a must.

I'll write about last night's show shortly.

Love, Power, Peace

Last Nite

Hey Soul Mates,
No time to write but the show was great. Check the website for a few pix.
Love, Power, Peace
