years ago, i remember singing in a cover band (yes, it’s true). after the first set one night, i was being my normal, social self….making my way through the crowd/audience (patrons)….pretty sure there was no break-room which really left me no other choice! still, making my way, and some guy stopped me to discuss the band’s song choices. apparently, he figured he was management material, so i listened. his thoughts and comments quickly led up to him saying something pretty close to, “you guys are pretty good, but it’s your voice. it sounds the same on everything.” i remember starting the next set and immediately going over to his table with my wireless mic and singing to the entire table. just wanted to make sure that they got the most out of their dime….or $5.
fast forward to today….questions regarding the “sunday morning” video can be answered with this- we’re a little behind, i don’t think anyone’s too happy about it, but we’re all trying to finish it up and get our schedules synced up to do so.
on another note, three songs on the ep are featured in the documentary film “mzungu”, due for release on october 1, 2010. the film is featured in a number of film festivals and is currently touring parts of the us. rumor has it, i may perform those same three songs live at a screening in october when it hits the east coast. yeah, i know- an actual “live” performance of sorts? crazy, huh?
sugar.
