Strange Days

I've been playing with Smooth and the bully boys For 3 months now.

We play a lot. I'm talking like every week about 3 eve's.
Makes me think working less at my Day job but in Belgium being a musician is tough.
There is no statute for a Musician and every dime you can make will go directly to the taxes.
Problem is all support goes out to big record companies and Idols winners....
Who make a shitload of crap.
Even the "alternative music" industry is flooded by the big commercial cause.
So they take 16yr olds who cant sing or perform put some major producers behind them and there you go -> you have an alternative idol. Booh

So as an indie band life is a gamble. (even if you play 120 shows in a year)

With Carambol Company we are recording our new cd / LP
I hope it will be out before the summer.
We had to stop the recording because it was freezing in the studio.
Recording is hard at -8 °C ;)
