Practice at Scotts house

We worked our asses of the last two days pulling together a few new songs as we prep to head back into Studio at Puss Canvers with Joe Jonson at the controls. Look for the following tracks to be uploaded to the website by the end of June... Drink the Punch, My Friend Shane, Cry Baby, Undertow, and our newest piece which totally kicks ass. I just love playing this one Good for Nothing

Awesome jam session last night

Our practice session last night was killer. We jammed through our usual set like it was old hat and then on to 3 new songs we have been working on "Drink the Punch, Jonesing, and Good for Nothing." Scott is really getting comfortable with the songs and sounding smooth. We are all looking forward to the show on April 2nd at the Powerhouse Pub see you their.
