New Projects

I was talking to our AFE Contact (That's the Armed Forces Entertainment people) and he said we got great reviews from the various camps and the soldiers there so he asked, "Well, what do you guys think? Would you do it again?"
I laughed and told him "You need to listen to our first CD. We have a song called Do It Again". Then in the next breath I said, "Hell yes we'd do it again. What you got?".

After that the conversation moved around to various tours and the one he seemed to keep coming back to was the Mediteranean. Two to three weeks in Turkey, Greece and Egypt! I said we'd love it but you got to schedule 1 day off in each country so we can actually go out and SEE it! I will not go to Egypt and not have time to see the Great Pyramid and the Sphinx. That would just be cruel.

So who knows. I guess it's good to be wanted at least in this sense.

But back here in the real world it's time to get moving on new product. We will be doing something a bit adventurous. I'm writing a lot of music so we are working on not one but two new CDs. There is a theme behind them and I think it's going to be a strong PR buzz when we reveal the whole thing. For now just say it's a fusion of eras with an emphasis on doing good for those who deserve it. Yea, I know it's a bit cryptic but please bear with me. It's going to be something special.

Right now I'm demoing all the songs at my home studio and sending out discs to the guys. From here we'll rehearse heavily and hit the big studio in a few weeks. I'm hoping to have the CDs in time for our yearly Cabin Fever Show in Davison, MI.

Next big event for us is the PIX Theater in Downtown Lapeer, MI.
This will be the last Band show of the year as we bury ourselves in the studio to prepare for 2010. Laurie & I will still be doing some duo shows so please check the calendar at the RWB website.

See ya at the PIX!
