The Indulgences

Masami and I played a short set at a barbecue a few days ago. It went OK, I think. This was yet another gig where the performances had been set up a month or so back and since then everyone but me forgot about it.

The main point of this exercise, from my point of view, was to get a little practice in front of an audience. I'm planning to get some actual public gigs arranged for the summer and it would be great if we sucked a little bit less by then. Actually, Masami and I sounded pretty good by the end of the night before the barbecue. (Why is everything always better at the rehearsal?)

The first album with the Indulgences name on it is now under construction with a projected release date in February 2007. It's seems much more like a second album than a first to me, as I am treating it as my follow-up to Questionable Fidelity. One big difference between this album and QF is that Theresa will be playing drums on the new album and I used pre-recorded loops for all the drums on QF.

Oh, and the new album is going to be called Romantic Notions Smoldering, unless I think of something I like even better.
