Sheffield & Firehouse Grill

So Wednesday evening we headed back over to Sheffield to help out a studio recording class. Basically the deal is you agree to go and let them do whatever the class is for, and then you can get a copy of the result. That's the exchange. We had some amazing pop-song/opera-style freestyling antics from Kristen (which Selena definitely caught on her camera phone and she should send to me immediately upon reading this). We had some King of the Hill theme song jamming from Eva on the bass. We got some drum and bass tracks down for Deserve, so hopefully that will turn into something we can eventually share with you. (Of course, we all know the reason I'm writing this at all is to get a pic in here of me with my tiny tiny drums. Ha.)

Then last night was a fun-filled evening with Sematic at Firehouse Grill. They'd asked us to come and play with them before they filmed their own show for an upcoming music video, and were then extremely friendly to us. Thanks guys! You're awesome. Apparently I always enjoy bands with siblings in them. Maybe b/c my first band in high school (that played actual songs instead of never-ending jams) had a set of brothers in it. James from Rome in a Day was there with a surprise acoustic set before we got started, and was awesome as well. Back in the old-school OGO days, we used to cover No One Knows (Queens of the Stoneage), and it was interesting to hear an acoustic guitar rendition of said song. Apparently James has a large GUITAR HERO repertoire! Yay Guitar Hero!

Also special thanks to Claire for hanging out with us pre-show whilst Tawni downed her taco salad, and to Jaime, Lindsey, & Anya for hanging out and rocking out with us during the show.
