Deeps Posted March 18, 2005 Report Share Posted March 18, 2005 Hi All, Musicians in Guelph making music at the Jimmy Jazz in Guelph this Saturday March 19th starting at 10:30pm. Virtually unknown at this point we are definitely jammers and could use any support from the likes of the music appreciators in the forum. www.whatthethundersaid.ca Take care. End shameless self promotion transmission now. Deeps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarcO Posted March 18, 2005 Report Share Posted March 18, 2005 I'll be there. You guys better be good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deeps Posted March 18, 2005 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2005 I'll be there. You guys better be good. True... I'd hate to completely suck-out in front of my girlfriend and her jam band friends. Might be in the market for some band cyanide if that happens -kidding- just trying to build a tortured musician facade before anybody finds out I'm having way too much fun with all of this. See you Saturday. Missed you at The Fat Cat's last night. Deeps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarcO Posted March 18, 2005 Report Share Posted March 18, 2005 I'd hate to completely suck-out in front of my girlfriend and her jam band friends. I know. We'd just point and laugh and then go to a karaoke bar for the rest of the night and talk to Sara about who her next boyfriend should be. Wear something revealing. You are a very handsome man.

bradm Posted March 18, 2005 Report Share Posted March 18, 2005 I'm listening to the tracks from the website now, and they're not bad. The first one, 'bounce', is kind of generic/typical (non-descript; not bad, just not particularly memorable) jam/funk/rock. The second track, 'algo', is quite a bit better, and reminds me a lot of something Cake might have done, both musically and lyrically (along with how it's sung). The last track, 'el camino', is also in that instrumental jam-rock/groove vein; like the first track, it's got a good level of playing (and good-sounding recording), but my ears don't hear a lot of distinctive identity. The above comments may sound harsher than I intend it; I'd like to think they're more observations than criticisms. If you make it to Ottawa, I'll try to come out. Do you guys allow taping? Aloha, Brad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deeps Posted March 18, 2005 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2005 Tape away man. No worries on the criticism. That's part of the game and will only help. The band is definitely in its infancy on that recording and we're developing everyday. Only been together about a year and we just picked up a full time keys man so I won't be spread so thin. I played the keys and bass on the album, but am seriously more comfortable on a bass. Saturday in Guelph will be the first time I'm not running between keys and bass and with the 4 piece instead of 3 piece setup things are moving on up like Weezy J. Thanks again, Deeps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boogieknight Posted March 19, 2005 Report Share Posted March 19, 2005 nice site and the tunes have a good groove. I would suggest listing the players in the bio. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarcO Posted March 19, 2005 Report Share Posted March 19, 2005 yes! - looking forward to meeting you bokonon and throwing full pints at the band; our only concern at this point is the threat of freezing rain coming in tonight, which is unfortunately the forecast. Barring inclement weather, we most certainly will be there! we're just going to wait and see what the forecast is like come 9pm-ish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bokonon Posted March 19, 2005 Report Share Posted March 19, 2005 bokonon is a sort of god, you want a ride? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tribalstar Posted March 19, 2005 Report Share Posted March 19, 2005 you know what bokonon...you are a sort of godDESS...but upon further contemplation I think I will sit this one out. I have raged a lot in the past few weeks and being that I am 24 now (no spring chicken you know) I think I should try to go to my job tonight and make money instead of spending it...thanks for the temptation though.

RayRay Posted March 20, 2005 Report Share Posted March 20, 2005 Good show last night Deeps, it looked like you guys were having a good time. I liked the keys, you should keep him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarcO Posted March 20, 2005 Report Share Posted March 20, 2005 Nice night in the the G-Spot!! Congratulations on the turn-out guys, the room was very enthusiastic and I have no doubt good things will come from this showcase gig. Just keep playing and jamming and working and you've got nowhere to go but up! Your bass player is a bit shrimpy though. Bokonon - 'twas a pleasure to make your acquaintance. Finally! Have safe travels and be sure to keep us updated on your well-being and adventures. Go see "What The Thunder Said"! (also, what a treat to get a pint of Keith's for $4.50! Grabbed a pint of Strongbow and a pint of Keiths and it was like, $9.50 for the two drinks. Bottles of beer were $3.50/$3.75. If prices were like that in Hamilton, I'd definitely go out more. I am so fu©king sick of having to slap down $15 for two pints of beer in Hamilton. I'd rather go out for a nice dinner and have some drinks at home. Or drink before I go out to see live music and only spend a little at the bar. I fu©king hate being gouged and it's steadily getting worse and worse around this town. Rant: over.)

Deeps Posted March 21, 2005 Author Report Share Posted March 21, 2005 Thanks for the kind words and constructive criticism. The show on Saturday was a blast. Sweet dancing throughout the 2nd set and beautiful sing-along during the encore. So greatful to the people that made it out and hope to see some new faces next time.
