My thoughts of our first headline show

So we're a few days away from the show on the 19th. It was our third show and our First headlining show. What an exhilarating experience. I've been to and in a LOT of local shows but this show was the best. The first band up was SixL6. I talked to them beforehand and they thought playing acoustically would be a problem, it wasn't. It fits their music, which is southern rock with a splash of subtle alternativeness, perfectly. Man, they were also a TIGHT three-piece. This week they go into the studio to cut their first EP, so be on the look out for that.

Next was a band called Bad Channel. Like this band on facebook, see them live. Do whatever you can to see this band live. They are mind 'sploding. I had the pleasure of playing bass for the band a few months ago and they blew me away then so when I had the opportunity to put this show together, the first band I wanted was Bad Channel. I can't say enough great things about this band. When they get big, and play stadiums, I hope they remember the ol' Cute Scenarios and maybe we can get a free Bad Channel show if not the chance to open up for them.

Closing out the night was your friendly, neighborhood, Cute Scenarios. I was so nervous for this show. joie and I as a unit have never done anything like this.It's kind of Scary and a bit daunting the first time out. We stepped from under the protective wing of Cheers 2U and The Raygun. Our feet were in the fire and I think we glowed. Our first song was an of Montreal ditty called Sex Karma. We also premiered a song called Climate Change. Unfortunately Joie doesn't sing much on this song, but when she does...Nearly euphoric. When her voice is on, you can't beat it. The only thing I regret about the show was that we forgot to put in our song called My Heroin(e). Biggest oversight ever.

So now we're gearing up for the Tutu 5K which is this Saturday! Be sure to come out and remember to bring the family. It's a great event for a great cause.

Be well,

Jono

Cute Scenarios had our last practice of 2010. It went well, not too bad at all. We learned a new original and got started on a new cover. I'm hoping we can uncover the new original at our next show. This song is called My Heroin(e) and it has an undefinable energy to it...at least to me, maybe joie could come up with some words for it...we'll see.

We were going to post a video of the practice but it was deemed unwatchable. I know it was only a practice but D-D-D-Damn it was rough and was deleted on site.

I think that will do it for now. A new posting won't come until the new year. I'll see you in 2011.
