I have no big news to report other than the usual stuff: wrote some new tunes, booked some shows, bought a new pair of white pants, ate some fine east Indian food the other day, etc, etc. The new songs are being demo-ed on and off and will be released someday by someone in a format to be decided upon later. The shows are listed on the ‘shows‘ page and you should take particular notice of the fact that I’m doing a Winnipeg show with my four piece band and that in relative terms this is a big deal and somewhat of a rarity. Steve Bates will be joining us all the way from Montreal and we have a new drummer lined up because Derek moved to Halifax and Jord is booked solid with his other band. I’m expecting this to be a landmark show and I’ve told the drummer that he’s not only responsible for ensuring this but that anything short of a once in a lifetime performance and a sold out show will lead directly to his dismissal. His chances are good but you can help him with this by coming to the show and being ready to rock!
Anyone interested in hearing a rough demo of a new song that Derek and I recorded last August in Winnipeg can stop by myspace.com/macphersonband and click on ‘Time and Place’. There’s other stuff there too but don’t browse around myspace too long or you’ll cut into your facebook time.
