So, this is new and different for us. There are times when we want to say something or acknowledge our friends or latest gigs, and the only way would normally be to use email. But, too much of that, and we start spamming folks. Blogging isn't new, but it is for us, so here we go.
I have no idea how often we'll make some posts, but if we get rolling with it, we'll throw stuff out there every now and then.
To start, let me wish Terry Lawless the best, as he moves on to other endeavors. Terry, as you might know, was sitting in with us occasionally as time and circumstances allowed, on keyboards and sax. What a treat to play with him! If you don't know his lineage, check it out at www.terrylawless.com. He's played and worked for a number of A-list musicians and bands, the most recent being none other than Dublin based U2. Pretty amazing gig, wouldn't you say? Rumor has it that he is going to be headed to Europe to travel with Bruce Springsteen on tour. Nice work if you can get it!
Unfortunately for us, and for several other bands in town, his schedule just starting getting a bit too crazy, and he's decided - for sanity's sake - to cut back on local commitments. We'll miss him, and hope that when he is in town, he'll still stop by to do a show or two with us.
In the meantime, Funk:30 pushes on as a foursome, like we've been doing for over two years now. We are always hoping to find someone that really fits the band (Long Guy! Where are you?!), but we are also very content staying a four piece. Nice place to be.
Ok, I am wrapping this entry up so that I can figure out the technical side of getting this linked to our web page. Thanks for listening!
--Terry
