Three days until LC’s gig

There are only three days to go before the Love Commandos play subside on Monday evening (31st May). The band have a final rehearsal later today to put a final polish on our set. We hope that you show up to show your support of the band and enjoy an evening of loud rock music – hey, it’s a bank holiday Monday, what else would you be doing that’s as much fun?

Take a risk. Go Commandos!

Boys and their toy s(tories)

One of our more random conversations took place at our last rehearsal – a critique of computer animated feature films. The general concensus seemed to be that we preferred Pixar to Disney or Dreamworks films. Aardman Animations were ranked highly especially Wallace and Gromit. Though we felt that the Final Fantasy film was ahead of its time.

Clearly having children is a good excuse for grown men to watch lots of children’s films (not that we need one of course).

The Aircon is Broken Again!

Another very hot session, but sadly not purely metaphorical as the rehearsal room aircon is being less than accommodating again.

Ken has some new technology (Pod X3 Live) and a new haircut which reminds Andy of a character from South Park. Sadly it’s Big Gay Al.

Trouble with the mixing desk delayed the start as does Ken’s inability to make the new tech work. After some cursing and frantic knob twiddling we get a sound and Ken promises to read the manual. The general concensus is that some time needs to be spent developing some tailored patches as the presets are just too over the top for live use.

We ran through the second half of our extensive song list and most tracks sounded pretty good, though more work is still needed on our rendition of “Just a Day”.

After seeing your reply I had a chat with Cage at a rehearsal. Cage would love to do a double header with you guys in the New Year, drop me a line or e-mail and we’ll get it sorted.Sounds great! I will be in touch.

P.S. Cage are playing on Boxing Day at the Nag’s Head, Henley-in-Arden, & on New Year’s eve at the The Golden Lion, Solihull ƕ pounds admission, normal price beer!)

bye, Matt ‘Scooby’ King
