gideons update
this just in from terry vernixx valderas:
Man, oh man....what can I say?!?!?! The Gideons spent all week-end in Chuck Rose's studio rehearsing thoroughly...more than we've ever rehearsed in the 10 year history of the band. We jammed for hours, working out the riffs, improvising on phrases, and generally making our sound more whole and refined. We spent quality time polishing off gems that we haven't played in 7 years, busting through some of our more noteworthy covers, and honing our songs that are best known. Lee Allen is holding down the bottom with finery on six-string bass and has added an entirely new dimension to our sound. Think Tar, Jesus Lizard, and Big Black crossed with some Don Cabellero odd time math rock tendancies...and you get we're we are headed with the Gideons sound. I am stunned and excited by the progression we have made in the last week-end.
This may not be a one off just for the closing of The Wreck Room either, as we've begun to actually talk about gigging regularly again. We have all agreed NOT to play on the roof as advertised due to complications with sound, instead pulling off a "special" event set on the main stage for that Sunday. More details forthcoming.
