We were hoping to record soon, but apparently the lead singer/second guitar player is pregnant now. Completely whack. We were just about to make it big. We did have two live gigs though, we rocked the shit out of everyone.

Scott, that song is spectacular. Maybe I’ll suggest it four Grouper. Gets a little weird about 2/3rds of the way through with what I take to be fish sounds, but it comes back out strong.

Andy, do the Groupers have any recorded material? We should put together a split EP with Grouper Sandwich and Laszlo Toth. We call dibs on a Crash Test Dummies cover.

Two minute pop is more to my wavelength. That being said, I highly recommend this band Van Der Graaf Generator and particularly their song “Killer.” It’s a nine minute epic about a killer fish and features such classic lyrics as “On a black day / In a black month / At the black bottom of the sea / Your mother gave birth to you / And died immediately!” Check it here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LpTkImmOtiE

In other news, came up with another sweet band name: Terrelle’s Priors

I’m a fan so far of the Mattison pick up. I think the defense would have improved somewhat regardless given another year experience, but hopefully he can make them…good. Haven’t seen that in a while.

On a Slay Tracks related note, what are your thoughts on Neil Peart? My brother got me the Spirit of Radio greatest hits CD from Rush for Christmas for inspiration, as I am a drummer in a wildly successful rock band (Delusions of Grandeur aka Confidential Waste aka Grouper Sandwich). I’m digging it so far. I’d like to know your thoughts.
