Every Other Sunday Reunion!

http://www.facebook.com/EveryOtherSunday

The wedding band that was formed a few years ago with the hopes to play several weddings per year (a broken dream), had a reunion today at our regular rehearsal space. We have cycled through drummers; lost one the day of a gig (bad situation), and played a wedding last August with a perfect fit- but without commitment. We did not get a chance to demo a new drummer today, but we have a lead.

What was different about today?

Our keyboard player quit so we had a new keyboard player through our bass player. The rehearsal space looks like a livingroom now and seems more inviting and comfortable. There is a dedicated drumset on site and it will be easier to slip in and out for a practice without breaking down and setting up over and over. Overall we are more confident and less confident-- we know what we can do and we also know that money is still not definite-- neither is membership (something most of my groups deal with).
We are trying out new markets and hopefully this summer will not be devoid of a gig for us. If anyone reads this...I hope...see if you know someone who needs a band that can play all styles, composed of classical, jazz, and theatrically trained musicians. We would love to help out!
