I've been working this week on getting cover art stuff together for the new cd, though there's still no real consensus about what will be on the cover. We may end up scrapping what I've done and having somebody else do something totally different (though I hope not because I think what I have so far is pretty rad!).I sort of proposed the idea of a December 3rd release date to people today, but that might be too soon or might be wrong for some other reason. With the EP I remember we were trying to get it done for Christmas and the actual release was on Valentine's Day!
Anyway, tomorrow night, that being Saturday, October 2nd, there will be a show at Tea Bazaar featuring my side-project band, The Womans, and two other bands. I posted a flier about the show on this page a couple of weeks ago. One of the other bands is the side-project of the guy from The Spinto Band. The third band is called ROAR and I don't know if they're a side-project or not. Either way, the evening will be side-project heavy for sure.
I played the demos I recorded of the songs for The Womans for Dave the other day. He said it sounded like music by somebody with a lot of problems. I was sort of trying to make a soundtrack for, like, a '60s beach party held on Halloween. We're also doing some covers, because I've always wanted to be in a band that played a lot of covers, but usually if I'm only in one band I don't want to do that because it might seem like I'm just lazy and don't write many songs. But since this is my second band I'm just going to go for it in terms of covers (and in terms of creeping out girls).
We (The Womans) are also looking for a lead singer, so if you want to sing in a band give me a shout. I originally wanted a female vocalist, but since our aesthetic is sort of all about creeping girls out I think that's probably not going to happen, so guys are welcome.
The Tom Perriello campaign was just at my door, reminding me to go vote on election day, which I was going to do anyway. Wouldn't their time be better spend visiting the people who weren't already going to vote for Perriello? I hate campaigns so much.
See what you get when you mess with The Orphans!

Sam,
ReplyDelete1. The gentleman called Roar is not a side project; he used to be in a fantastic band called Asleep In the Sea. Look them up!
2. The Womans were terrible musically but scarily delightful as an artistic concept. I'm not really a normal girl so it's kind of hard to actually creep me out but I did think the cats on the cell phone were a nice touch. And the whole putting a cd in my lap and scampering away thing. I think you should compromise on the sex of a singer, though; maybe a drag queen...?
3. At the expense of sounding cliche, I enjoyed your beard immensely.
4. A one minute video loop of an eagle pooping.....that's funny, right?

Just a reminder...this is the blog for the band The Hilarious Posters. If The Womans want their own blog they are free to start one.
ReplyDeleteThat's awfully paranoid of you, Dave! Maybe if the Posters could get it together and construct an actual web page for themselves you wouldn't have go barking like a chihuahua with a napoleon complex at anybody who happens to wander past this blog.
ReplyDeleteJust a reminder, dude! This is the Hilarious Posters blog for people who want to be nice. If you would like a second Hilarious Posters blog for being a dick (which actually strikes me as a pretty fun idea) then you should start one.
Anyway, The Womans will not be starting anything until we get at least 1000 signatures on our petition, and we still need 999.
I don't know shit about the Hilarious Posters; I just know that I went to a show to see some buddies from out of town play and some bearded dude shows me some cats. I used Google, here I am.
ReplyDeleteMake another post about the Hilarious Posters. I'm going to review bar and venue restrooms in the comments from now on just to spite you, Dave. And you know what? You're lucky I don't know where you live because if I did, I would drop by and review your restroom, too.
I've seen Dave's restroom, and it's in quite good taste.
