Guess I will add my fall story here. I was walking with Sacher Torte on Sunday. There was a hole, but you couldn’t see it because the grass growing in it made it look just like regular ground. In went my left foot and down I went. My left ankle is the one that hurts all the time. Twisting it in that hole aggrivated it even more.

@Martha, I enjoyed my visit to Berlin. I didn’t have time to see everything I wanted to see, but I did go to the Parliament building, Checkpoint Charlie, the Pergamon Museum, and a shelter that was built for people to live in during and after a nuclear attack. @Ron Nasty knows how much I love to shop, so of course while in Berlin I had to go to KaDeWe. I also went to a mall in Potsdamer Platz. I hope you do get to the Wall and Write Away (Paul solo song reference) on it.

Looks like I got a bruise on my left hip and a slight scratch on the back of my left shoulder. No blood though. I consider myself lucky. Taking some Tylenol and heading on out to work shortly. 

This has been a hazardous month for my co-workers as well, with two of them spraining or twisting their ankle, and another breaking their finger. And yet another in hospital getting tests done to rule some things out. Who knows what other injuries have occurred ^^;;;

Not to mention I also slammed one of my fingers between two of our shopping carts a couple weeks back. Those things are mean.a-hard-days-night-ringo-12

@The Hole Got Fixed that reminds me: at band practise yesterday, one of the lads (he doesn’t normally play drums, he usually plays guitar, but he was having a go at the kit) almost fell off the drum stool trying to catch a cymbal which started falling over after I hit it with the headstock of my guitar. (It was at a bad angle, and left a bit of a dent in my headstock — super-cool rocker attempt FAIL) a-hard-days-night-paul-10

It was a very awesome practise though — we are improving ahdn_george_08

I've been up on the mountain, and I've seen his wondrous grace,
I've sat there on the barstool and I've looked him in the face.
He seemed a little haggard, but it did not slow him down,
he was humming to the neon of the universal sound.

Our band’s got an LP, but it’s pretty lame. You probably don’t want to hear it.

@Beatlebug’s band sounds more professional.

(On our bands next LP, there will be 4 maybe 5 Beatles songs! I have a big influence!)

You have a band with it’s own LP, i didn’t know that. Is this a school band or just a normal band because i know you play French Horn or as i like to call it Sgt. Pepper horn in a school band. If it’s a school band, that’s very interesting because school bands usually don’t have albums. If it’s a normal band, that’s so cool and i’d love to hear it, even if it sucks, and i’d also love to know the instruments used on the LP.

Well, here’s the link: https://schwarzewolke.bandcamp.com

Don’t say I didn’t warn you (and anyone else who listens to it)

BTW, Imagine is the 12th track.

 

Instruments are already on the page.

 

It’s a normal band (but we rehearse, play and record during lunchtimes).

Not bad, i’m listening to some of the tracks right now. Not perfect but I’ve seen worse and the fun is definitely there.

It was meant to be slightly comically bad. 

Though I’m very happy you enjoy it!

I wonder, why is there very little guitar on your album. Out of all of the songs, only 2 of them contain guitar (not counting bass) and both times it’s acoustic.

By the way, i like how you did We Will Rock You.

And it was a 5 second part in each song.

This is because I’m the only person in our band who can play guitar, and I’m occupied on drums. 

Our next album will feature a lot of guitar, because we’ve decided to use overdubs, so I’ve played a lot of guitar. (we didn’t use any overdubs on Deceitful Winter, except those two songs.)

 

Thanks, I’ll pass that on!a-hard-days-night-john-6

I listened to your album. It reminds me of the music my friends and I used to make when we were teenagers. You show promise as a drummer.

Thanks! I’m glad you think I’m better than an idiot at drumming!

Did any song stand out, out of interest?

It’s actually a very promising album. With some tidying up, original songs and proper studio recording you would have a very respectable product. And I really enjoyed your drumming!

Glad you’re ok @Ron Nasty! @The Hole Got Fixed I laughed way too hard at your cover of Video Killed The Radio Star, but I liked We Will Rock You. I will back enthusiasm over polish every day, particularly when doing covers a-hard-days-night-george-9Keep up the good work!

Thanks! We certainly have enthusiasm in abundance, maybe too much though. 

We decided Video Killed The Radio Star was our best cover, thus it being the opening track. Interesting to see that not many people agree with us!

The We Will Rock You and Imagine covers were great! paul-mccartney-thumb_gif I also like the Hunchback Of Notre Dame song! I hope you don’t mind me asking @The Hole Got Fixed, but apart from the experimental tag, what other sort of genre is the group going for? I personally think it fits nicely between Indie and punk (with added organ) ! a-hard-days-night-john-6
