Just thought I'd let you know that I've found an old recording of a song I recorded with a band called State of Mind. I was their lead vocalist for about five weeks in the mid-90s before the rhythm guitarist, bassist and drummer all got offers from better bands and I had to go back to university. If it sounds rough, the notes on the site explain everything. You never know, I may decide to redo it.

Go for it dude! I for one could never post material from the archives, perhaps for the comedic value. I've been with our guitarist for a little over five years the now. He recently unearthed one of our very first jams. At the time it seemed great but with hindsight it truly was bloody awful :-D .

hey ogg, just listneed to your tunes, the muscianship is good, i enoy that, but my comment is that the vocals are poorly mixed, the are often very blurred , uninteligible, cnan't make out a word of it, or they are seldom heard amongst the other music.

Playing in the music industry is cool but sometimes can be bad. I was playing with a couple of guys several years agoin a group called "KIND". We were working for warner/chapel records with a producer by the name of Jesse Hodges. It was the coolest thing I had ever done, but it didnt work out.....

I'm a musician and I play in a band called Joe's Band.

Unfortunately there isn't a link as the band don't have a website.

However here is a link for the band I used to play with.........

http://www.velouramour.co.uk

Liam Saunders took over my role as keyboard player.

From one Liam to another........

The band I'm in played a show last night. It's always good to get out and play. But we really didn't do very well last night. I know our drummer was experiencing a lot of back pain, and was having a hard time of it. ALl of us made a lot of mistakes through the evening. I guess that happens sometimes.

I know what you mean ED. I remeber one gig where, for some reason, I was about half-a-second behind the rest of the band, except for the keyboard player, maybe, who I couldn't hear, for the first 3 or 4 songs. It was excrutiating.

I could tell about how, on another night, whwen our drummer forgot how to count but I'm a 'be nice to drummers' thing at the moment

well well well. I'd love to contribute my own muzaks, but I got no way to record that sounds any good right now. eh, maybe I'll record some stuff later today with my crap-mofone on my compy. take in mind this'll all be solo stuff, as I'm a sax player.
