Despite appearances, the last few weeks have actually been surprisingly busy for us…like a swan, we have remained calm on the surface but there has been a lot of paddling going on out of sight. The demos are starting to take shape, which is very exciting, even with shonky Casio-style drums on them and the general “living room” recording vibe. The monumental pain in the arse which is visa applications for South by Southwest seems to be reaching it’s conclusion, only another few hundred forms to fill in and we’ll be there…it seems they just brought out a new form which involves detailing everything you have ever done in your life, ever, with witnesses. Which is all well and good if you are blessed with the power of a sharp memory, a category into which I do not fall, unfortunately.
In the words of the perma-realist Kas, “I’ll believe it when I’m on the plane.” Which is also looking more likely as we now have flights booked. Wayhey! I’ll be updating our progress on here as we go along, and on the forum at www.brokenrecordsband.com (which more people need to get on, hint hint!) Just got interviews at the consulate in London booked for next Tuesday.
We are also looking forward to getting back into the studio when we return to record some new tracks, which we will hopefully be doing in Glasgow – watch this space!
