My Other Life

It's strange to have something that is such a huge part of my life and it not really be part of my blog.  You might remember the original introduction to our band here... I've since taken the original poster designs Elsie did for us and run with them to create new posters.  It's a pretty fun process, and the poster down at the bottom of this post Hope and Poesy even helped out with (you can probably tell which part was Poe's contribution).

It's a fun and exhausting thing, being in a cover band.  We usually play 2-3 weekends a month on top of lots of practicing and learning new songs.  I think our song repertoire is about 60 songs deep at this point!  There's always the pull to be playing original music, but for now we're sticking to it.  Johnny and I have been talking about doing some more mellow acoustic duo shows in the near future, so hopefully that will fulfill the desire to be playing our own stuff!

I haven't quite figured out where the band fits into the blog, but I thought I'd share a little update about it anyway.  If you're curious about us, you can learn more on our facebook page or website.  We really only play regionally so far, so the likelihood of most of you seeing our band live is pretty slim.  ALTHOUGH... some of our musician friends just got flown out to Australia for a private event, so maybe one day!  ;)
