Jammin’ and Fear Zero on www.sellaband.com/fearzero

Had a fun time last night at my buddies b-day party. Sometimes it’s fun to just get together a bunch of ragtag musicians and play music for the sake of music, no worries about playing music people can dance to, or making sure you don’t play anything too crazy and get fired from the gig lol. We just created for a solid 2 hours, making up songs, melodies, chord progressions and then improvising over all of it. 5 minute long solos, 15 minute long jams centered around creativity. I always have fun doing that sort of stuff and I don’t get to often enough as life gets in the way of that (gotta pay the bills).

Fear Zero and Microsoft offer you a FREE download and…

even though the song is free, Microsoft is kicking us 50 cents per download so it is a win win situation! Please download the song at http://www.myspace.com/windows?homepage=fearzero and then let us know what you think.

If you like it, send the gift around to all your friends, it’ll help us pay back the bill for the studio time it took to record it lol!

We have a couple of shows coming up in the interior. We are heading back to play Villager’s Pub in Fruitvale on July 10, and then we play an outdoor benefit concert called Cars, Concerts and Causes in Trail BC at Gyro park starting at 6 pm with guests BlackLightProphet.

T-shirt salesman – the new musician

Hi everyone, back for another round of blogging. I have been doing a lot of thinking about how the music business has been affected by the internet, downloading and now of course the economy.

One friend recently said to me that a CD is like a business card. I agree but damn those are expensive business cards!

Another Short “Life on the Road” Tour Story

Some weird things happen on the road. From the long hours travelling with nothing to do, to the strange people you meet after shows, a tour always leaves you with plenty of little amusing stories.

This short story I am about to reveal falls into the latter category.

We had just finished a show in some city in Ontario and all of us had jumped in the band van including some of Spokane’s (our guitarist) college buddies that came out to the show. Two sketchy looking girls came up to the van window and began knocking on the window so the boys in the back seat opened up the door to see what they wanted.

Road Stories #2 – The less I say…

So a while back I wrote about the difficulties of a traveling band on tour in Canada.

The day after day travel mixed with the terrible food (Taco Time anyone?) and lack of sleep makes it very easy to get sick especially when you are putting demands on your voice every single night.

One such instance literally landed me in the hospital!

Road Stories #1 Life on the road in an indie rock band

So this week I am here to give you an idea of life on the road during Fear Zero’s tour in ‘07.

There is an old mantra practiced by many musicians that goes something like this, “What goes on the road, stays on the road.” No need to cover your kid’s eyes, this one is clean.
