Let there be DRUMS!!!!

I'm back after a long blogging rest, rest assured though, I have not been lazy, I have actually been quite busy. I have written and recorded approx 22 songs with an alternative/unconformist /personal sound. I am actually quite pleased with the results mostly, especially as most of them ain't serious but actually for my alter ego/one man band "Legend of Sid" and considering I have done the vocals on them I'm chuffed that they almost seem to work!

I also joined a band a few months ago, and after some initial difficulty getting hold of a drummer we now have a brilliant drummer called Garry. We had our first practice with him on Friday night 7-11pm at a practice room and I have to say it sounded fantastic. I had started to feel a little lethargic towards the band practicing without a drummer, the songs which I enjoyed playing initially had started to lose their energy/magic and I thought they were in danger of going stale, and I have become a bit pissed off playing the horrid bass guitar which I am currently borrowing (gratefully) but I should have a new one in a matter of days, anyway, with the drummer bringing his enthusiasm and energy to the group it all sounds pretty rinsing!
When Garry has settled in and we a sounding a bit tighter, I have suggested we get 2 or 3 people to sit in while we practice to get used to playing in front of people again, anyway lets see! And I'll try to take a couple of photo's next time we are practicing.....it's so long since I last took a photo!

My rats are really annoying me at the minute, they keep detaching 2 of the 4 hooks to their hammock and using it as a swing instead of a bed! I have bought another hammock and also a bedroom/igloo type thing for them so hopefully this will solve the problem!

Welcome back Kevin!!
Lots of luck with all your musical activities - it isn't possible to do all of that and blog as well, but it will be good to see and hear a little more of you in future.
Hey, it sounds like you've got a couple of swinging rats over at your end! LOL!

His school-mistress takes great pains in teaching her little pupils to speak, and stands up http://startso11.info/du%C5%BCe+fiuty.html herself and shows them how.. Thus, the force of expression of the wish-fulfillment is http://startso11.info/pliki+mp4.html diffused over a certain sphere of association, within which it raises to expression all elements, including those that are in themselves impotent.. People that want nice things may go to parties for them; but they will http://startso11.info/noclegi+dar%C5%82%C3%B3wko.html never get any with me.. He was surprised, however, to find her already there, http://startso11.info/yla.html and in company with a somewhat sheepish-looking young man--a stranger.. You poor dear, did I http://rebestal.info/rozwad%C3%B3w+mapa.html abuse you? said my wife.. The dream admits of still another http://startso11.info/cennik+monet.html and more exact interpretation, which is necessitated only by a subordinate circumstance.. Then she says: 'But you have always http://startso11.info/www.olesnicamala.pl%2Finfo.html had such beautiful eyes.. When he opened his sleepy eyes and raised his expressive ears to a position http://rebestal.info/dojrzale.html of attention, the old familiar coat and battered hat of the elder were before him.. Till this moment, indeed, that is the impression in Naguadavick. http://startso11.info/koszulki+bawe%C5%82niane.html. Now look here, http://storyah44.info/restrykcja.html drawing from his pocket a paper.. He woke and gazed upon http://startso11.info/www.nad+morzem.pl.html her blankly.. Presently, however, http://startso11.info/konfil8.html he saw her face raised--a face still shining with tears.. I have http://startso11.info/www.gdziejesc.info.pl.html no foolish weaknesses.. You know how it was when I tried to repeat those things to you--I had to go clear back to http://startso11.info/akwarystyka+s%C5%82odkowodna+dawes.html the beginning when I got interrupted.. No less white, but more agitated, was the face http://storyah44.info/biura+nieruchomo%C5%9Bci+nak%C5%82o.html of the defendant's counsel, who instantly rose.. ; through it they dominate our speech and actions, or they enforce the hallucinatory regression, thus http://startso11.info/babvca.html governing an apparatus not designed for them by virtue of the attraction exerted by the perceptions on the distribution of our psychic energy.. During the anecdotes Hargraves never failed to laugh http://startso11.info/Nieruchomosci+Gradka.html at exactly the right point.. I couldn't make http://startso11.info/www.thumb18.com%2F.html a call any more than a cow.. No use doing that, replied Buller, still standing on his nautical legs; I don't see anybody, http://startso11.info/pole+namiotowe+p%C3%B3%C5%82wysep+helski.html and I don't see any boat.. On the repetition of this same experience we were forced to the supposition that there is an intimate bond, with laws of its own, between the unintelligible and complicated nature of the dream and the difficulties http://startso11.info/stopa+referencyjna.html attending communication of the thoughts connected with the dream...
