Back to Rehearsing: Back To Reality

We’re already close to matching our rehearsal level for the whole of 2011 and we’re not even out of January! our second rehearsal of the year this weekend is almost here and i am ridiculously excited about playing with the rest of wbw again. JM’s head is about to explode with all sorts of ideas and theories about the band which will be interesting to hear! we’ll hopefully nail down our newest songs and maybe even start tossing around some new ideas. I’m already plotting our next recordings and I’m leaning heavily towards a more live feel, recording us all in the same room playing together rather than us all doing our parts individually, weeks apart from each other. on our last ep, we were never all present on any of the recording sessions! this new approach means we have to get super tight and know the songs inside out and upside down and be able to play them as perfectly as possible. i might try to convince the band that we should also record the couple of older songs we used to play to test out the recording methods and also to have a document of them. Whatever, I hope that we’ll get our next release to you rather more quickly than the last one!

*Gatecrash* Hello, JM here. Adding a bit more onto the end of this post (and that pic of AC at the top haha). The idea I’m putting forward is that WBW stick to these three simple rules when writing our next few songs. They are:

1) No songs without shouting
2) No choruses without more than one person singing
3) No song over 3 minutes

Sounds good dunnit? No? Well you’ll see. You’ll all see. Toodlepip.
