I know I Know I'm Behind Again!

Even with my best intentions at heart I am so behind on updating blogs that I thought I would never get to it! haha Wow recording records is a fun business but it takes up a lot of time. Massive amounts to be honest. I am now dreaming about pro tools work screens and having night terrors that I forgot the settings for that 'just right' bass sound I just loved three songs ago. Oh well to make music one must become a part of it or so I have been told. I don't quite feel like a treble clef just yet but looking at leadsheets does make the eyes cross after awhile.

We are making good progress on everything. The songs are really coming together just as we had hoped they would. So good in fact we have more songs in final stages then we had originally planned to even record.

I know all of you are excited to hear what we have been up to. We do want to post some demos and some videos of the new tunes in the not so distant future. Amazing how far behind we got with my two week absence for the flu and Jimi taking a weeks leave himself with a kidney stone but all is back on track now. Now if I would just blog more often....

Back to work!

After my unwanted two week vacation for the flu it was back to work this week. I was ready too! It was tough to stop working on the new record right in the middle of everything but there was nothing any of us could do. It's been a really great week so far. We have had some really great creative moments that we were all excited about. It felt good to be making music again for sure. I think we all shared that feeling. Maybe the time off was good for all of us. A chance to recharge our music making batteries.

I better get back to work just wanted to let everyone know we were back to making music. Hopefully we will have something for you to hear very soon!

Broke or not ready to commit just yet?

Starting here in October you or someone you know can get a physical copy of our debut record 'Pompous & Proud' on www.amazon.com for $4.99!

We can also understand that some of you aren't sure you like us that much yet, which is cool because relationships take time. So, this $5 album deal could be the cheap date you need with the Third Grade Haters to take it to the next level.

PLEASE TELL YOUR FRIENDS, YOUR LOVER, YOUR MOTHER AND
YOURSELF TO GO GET A COPY OF OUR RECORD PLEASE. THE RECORD IS ALSO AVAILABLE ON iTUNES (HINT HINT!) SO IF YOU CAN GET TO iTUNES YOU CAN A GET A COPY OF THE RECORD THERE TOO!

Blame it on the Flu!

My new catch phrase for the past two weeks now has been blame it on the flu. For those who don't know I have had the dreaded N1H1 swine flu. Let's just say it's not a lot of fun folks. Worse then that all work on the new record came to a halt. I think that made me feel about as bad as the flu did. Just when you think you can really feel the momentum of everything coming together it just stopped. Oh well it's not like I tried to get to the flu or anything, but still I feel bad about it.

The past month has been a long and hectic one, and unfortunately I was a little too distracted to write on this thing as promised. For all the things I wanna do I seem to want to do music more then anything else. Write it, recorded it, play it, etc.. now if I could just update it like I should I would be on top of everything.

On a side we do have some press coming out the next bit.

Hope all is well with everyone. I'll try not to disappear again!
