That is it here in Aurora today...although with the heat lately a day of cloudy cool weather is a nice change of pace. I've been up to my ears in shows lately and having a blast playing. Many of you will notice that the schedule is quite full of acoustic shows lately and fewer of the full band. This is attributed to many things, but mostly to the fact that with the state of the economy it's tougher and tougher to book the full band. So instead of crying about it and sitting at home, I've been strapping on the boots and playing acoustic to make sure the music is still being heard and heard often. I've joined forces w/ a wonderfully talented musician Lucas Gillan who has added the percussion element to the show which some of you may remember from the early days of Team RD (my band before Painkiller Hotel). Lucas is a fantastic musician who sings his ass off and plays a helluva guitar as well. We've added at least 20 new songs to our set and I'm currently heading back into the studio to record new acoustic material that will bring a little more of an organic sound to the table in the future. Have no fear, I'm working harder than ever to make sure we put some new music out for you die hard fans. As always it takes blood, sweat, and tears to make it happen but I assure you it'll be worth it when the new material is released. Keep checking back to the schedule and come check out our acoustic show sometime soon. I promise you won't be disappointed. Until next time...Prez
