It's very hard to go back to filing now...

The concert went well. I'm trying not to dwell on everything I did wrong, because it went well. Our bassist wasn't there, due to a serious case of baby (congrats, sweetie!), but the bassist for Invisible was a total trooper and learned three songs in less than 24 hours for us, and The Show Went On.

Invisible kicked ass. I am partly awed and partly worried by what gmarc is able to do with that high-hat. Their original, "Little Black Plane," was a favourite, I think, and I'll confess to being very impressed with "Holiday in Cambodia" and "Bella Lugosi is Dead."

There were quite a few people. Many people I didn't know, and a few I didn't expect to see, not that I'm complaining. Missed some familiar faces, but there will be other shows, and maybe people will come to see those.

I keep meaning to write about this in detail, but it's too hot at home (my apartment is like a sauna), and I only have time for quick updates at work.

We moved our stuff into our own rehearsal space yesterday. This makes us feel a whole lot more official, somehow. The space is small, but not as small as the one we had before. The only problem will be, in summer at least, that it's airless and hot and has no window. So we'll need fans. Definitely. Otherwise, the room is tastefully decorated in black and burgundy. Yeah. On the plus side, we have a soundproof rehearsal space that doesn't vibrate every time t! plays an F#. ^_-

I will miss being able to simply walk down my front steps to go to rehearsal, mind you.

And I'll actually miss having everyone over twice a week. My house is going to feel very empty for the next little while.

I'm sure we could arrange something. Your basement is lovely and cool, after all...
