Greetings!

Chuck has entrusted the keys to the blog to me whilst he goes into rehab away for a short break. As he alluded to in his last missive we have indeed gone ahead and provisionally booked some studio time in May and June to try and exorcise the demons of the current project.

From a personal perspective, I found our writing sessions to be quite intense. Normally I like to bounce my song ideas off of Leroy, and between us we have usually been fairly close to having a finished article before we share with the wider group. So this “all hands together” approach has been a refreshing challenge to one-and-all.

Having Nancy on-board as a full-time band member has changed the dynamic a bit; hopefully for the better. She has always been driven by her own standards of perfection in her song writing and music, and the rest of us have enjoyed the different perspective she brought into the writing sessions. I won’t say that I had been chasing her to join us for a while, but found her very approachable during our last tour and maybe the closeness of the smaller venues meant she got to see us working in a different light. I’m so very glad that she did decide to say Yes.

I’ll reserve judgement on whether things will stay the same with her on-board – I’m not 100% convinced that Jesus has totally taken to us having a 3rd guitar in the line-up. Watch this space I guess!

Well that is enough rambling from me. I’m not such a fluent gossip as Chuck is, so can see why he enjoys keeping this blog going when others don’t show that much interest.
You all have fun, and keep your ears and eyes peeled for more news (and gossip) soon.

Regards

Randy.
