...I don’t think the random choice of 'this day' should be any reason to change everything. I like to make my changes when I think necessary and so have a better chance of them being a success!
Still, if I WERE to make New Year’s resolutions, they would be to blog much more frequently, do a video blog once a fortnight, keep fit more and find more ways to keep in touch with people.
So here I am starting the first of my non-resolutions.
So what have we been up to? Well , our new album, Acerbic, is ready to master, cover all done and we are just ion the middle of sorting a few things out regarding the releasing of said album- more info as it comes! We are starting to work out how the hell to play the tracks as live as possible. One day, oh happy day, when we have enough money or a generous and talented synth player comes along (all submissions welcome ;-)), we'll get a 2nd synth player in so EVERYTHING is live but until then, we have to have some stuff on the backing.
Next, we are on with booking a big old tour. I've mentioned it before and I'll keep letting you know. The first totally confirmed date is Saturday May 23rd where we'll be playing with the mighty Suzerain and another special guest to be announced nearer the time. It should be a crazy night! More dates will follow.
So Ditch and I are working on the show and what to do. We have some good ideas. Before we’ve kind of crowbared track onto the stage and not really taken the time to put on a 'show'.
But rest assured, no matter where you are in the UK, we'll be nearby at some point this year!
Ditch and I are on a bit of a fitness trip- Ditch is shrinking, and yet growing (he’s doing a lot of strength training) by the day. I just want to be able to go nuts for an hour and a half and not die afterwards. The exercise is fun but the eating is hellish. I try not to deny anything, just eat slower and stop when I'm full but when those cravings get ya they get ya.
Anyway, I'll round up now. This has been a very general blog. From now on they'll be daily and each day will be on a different topic. I hope to do them as follows: -
Monday- This week, I have been mostly
Tuesday- The latest sound I like to listen to. (All submissions/suggestions welcome)
Wednesday- What the hell is going on in the world?
Thursday- 42- Random Musings about life the universe and everything
Friday- The music industry this week (by Ditch and from HyperDIY Media)
Saturday- Scarlet Blonde News (no we haven’t forgotten) - Video blog every 2nd week.
Sunday- Health Drive update- so you can keep us on our toes.
So I’ll be kicking off on Monday (having a break tomorrow) letting you know how things are going on. I’ll add special SB news as and when it comes each day too, if theres any to tell you.
Also, look out for us adding more personal photos and videos to flickr and YouTube from now on. If you want to add your won pics or vids to our Flickr feel free, just send them to march59instead@photos.flickr.com from your computer or phone.
So speak again soon and if you want to get in touch, please do!
