Hey folks!! Another week passes us by as if it were yesterday! It’s Wednesday night about midnight and I am embarking on yet another blog. This is my 40th blog, I can’t even imagine what I’ve said in the last 39 blogs!! Lol!! I hope somebody’s writing this down!
I think it’s finally time to introduce the band SwampdaWamp in its final form. You see, SwampdaWamp has existed for about 3 ½ years running. Throughout those years there have been member changes that some of you know about and some that you don’t. In the last 3 years we have been thru 5 B-3 players, 4 bass players and finally 1 guitar player! Through all of that we have had many auditions and trial runs with these people who inevitably didn’t work out, costing the band valuable time and stress like you wouldn’t believe. Nothing against the people that auditioned at all, don’t get me wrong. We had some great musicians play with us and we made a many new friends in doing so but styles are different and some people are just more suited for one more than the other. Once the rumors die out everybody’s happy!! LOL!!
No offense to you guys “our fans” but we had to keep it quiet for stability reasons. We didn’t sell SwampdaWamp as a reality show!! However the DVD is coming!!
So now it is with much confidence, respect & hope that we announce the welcome of Keith Inman into the Swamp as our smoking ass lead guitarist. Keith has stepped in and fits like a glove. He brings in the Les Paul modern stroke deep slingin we love!! As we venture into the new recordings I can only say that shit is gonna get ridiculous!! The new release as you know is just around the corner and we are all more stoked than ever. You will learn more about Keith in the upcoming press release’s as well as my blogs!
We also officially welcome Cody Bennett on Bass guitar. Cody has been in the mix from day one as a roadie and has been our fill in bassist for the last 8 months while we searched & auditioned and he had the ability to progress the more he played and there ya go. He is a great enthusiastic element to the band, Cheers to you Cody you’ve earned it!!
The new bio etc coming with the new tracks test release in March.
Speaking of new tracks, your response to participating in the test team has been tremendous!! I am flattered to say the least, very cool. Please encourage your friends to check it out as well, we need the support, trust me. But anyway the new tracks will be coming out on a website TBA where you will get a login thingamajig. The details shall emerge in a week or two.
I’m cutting this short to sack out now but I will have more coming very shortly..!
Well Happy Valentines Day people!
Yours Truly,
Gig
In a Final Note:
You never know what you’ve got till it’s gone and you never know what you’ll get till it comes. Balance is life.
