The holidays were hectic as all hell. Christmas is all fun and games until you turn about 14, then it degrades from getting socks to getting NSF fees.
However I'm on vacation right now. I worked on the Sundrown "Recollection" release over December, thanks to the contacts via Pimpin' Lizard. "Recollection" is now available on this new site, emusic, I-Tunes, Zune, Amazon.com, as well as dozens of other sites and internet radio stations, along with terrestrial stations along the southeast. We've had new promotional support, as well as the very first physical release pressing of a Sundrown album. Sundrown was only available in mp3 format until now. This album is has been sent to various independent music stores that have agreed to carry this release.
I'm juggling with gear right now. I've been an E-Bay slut, buying new guitar gear while selling some gear, trying to get some new sounds. Thank God for my acoustic to get me by during this process. I've played through a Marshall JCM 2000 half stack since 07. I am back to shopping around for effects, and am thinking of going with a rack system direct into the Marshall rig. I'll have one huge pedal in the front, a rack with a couple cords going to the Marshall, and I'm ready to play live. It was hell playing with my current rig with Sundrown. My live rig for Sundrown was a pain in the ass to set up.
We may have some new pics on the site sometime this week and I'll have a song posted hopefully by the end of the month.
By the way, a good friend of mine finally pointed me in the direction of Depeche Mode. Not a fan of much of the earlier work, the music from the mid 90s to now is what I'm digging right now. That's the beauty of music, there are so many great bands, signed and unsigned yet to be discovered.
