Gittin' Gritty

Oh fer sure we're in. We had no doubts evah. Evah evah. If they didn't let us open up for Nitty I was gonna give up music all together. I know there's only a few things I'm good at, one of them is performing. Actually, until recently I thought maybe that was it! That was the ONLY thing I was good at, but maybe I'm alright at blogging. Lovejoy keeps telling me that my blogs make him laugh, so maybe I'll just keep blogging about our crazy road trips. And Oh em gee guys, the new band? They are crazy. We most def will be having crazy road trips. I can't even tell you about what was talked about on the way to Edson, it was seriously crazy! Funny/gross stories had to be stopped because they were pretty gross.
But we get to Edson start getting our stuff in there, I don't have a piano stand. We get up on stage, I don't have a piano pedal. No biggie. I'll play the piano laying on my belly and without any sustain-age happening. (no.)
Guess what else I don't have? The power cord. Oh! Sure, Tiff doesn't need a piano. I'm just queen of dueling piano extraordinaire and have never performed without a piano in front of me. So we do it sans piano. And obviously we killed it. Not 100% sure what to do with my hands, but I like moving around on stage, being able to turn and look at the boys, make my way over to whatever safe place I've put my beer....
and oooh nelly there were some of those afterwards. We make our way over to Castaways after we're all done, and there is a STELLAR band playing! Zoo Lion from Calgary who, apparently, opened up for fucking Bon Jovi. Same kinda situation as we just went through, they entered a contest and the prize was BJ (hahaha)
They were great. We chatted with them, got our drunk asses home, and woke up the tenant downstairs. He had no shirt on, and it was 6 30 in the morning... weird, but I was drunk enough still it didn't phase me. In fact I stayed drunk until we got back into the city, where I finally sobered up enough to pass out again.
Nice.
So if you're in the edson area, come check us out Oct 9. Word on the street is we're in Hinton on the 10th, but thats not confirmed. We're also at the Brixx Oct 29 but I'll get ya some more details on that when I'm done recording my demo today : P
