10 Feb 2008- Listening Party
Labels:
events
A more bomb time has not been had.
Tonight, Countless Hours performed their new songs for the first time ever. This was the first time I had even heard these, so this was a big fucking deal.
There were probably ten people there, besides the band [feel totally blessed if you were there; this is going down in history] and our job was to listen to the songs, and decide which one would make the best single.
It was a five song set, and I only know the names of four of them:
Together, Called By Force, Full Force, and Lost Again.
I actually have all of Picnic's lyric notes here, and i think the fifth one was Remember, so scratch that. I jacked the lyrics off the table at the end of the night. Unfortunately, I have to return them tomorrow, but hey, anything to make the blog more legit. I'll scan them and post them up later, once I get his permission.
Note: Picnic is the nickname of Ryan Metier. Maybe I'll post a blog about how he got that nickname. You could always ask him. Anyways, he has really messy writing. There was a rendition of "Solo" and "Slither", just for old time's sake. They actually played "Slither" in a more metal fashion... Ryan left the room, Hunter took over vocals, Mitch Feldmann came out on drums, and people didn't know wtf was going on. Brilliant.
People went to Tony's Pizza afterwards. Hunter, Aaron, and I [well, more of them than me] cleaned up and put all the gear away. I actually came home. I'll lie and tell you it was to write this.
So. They have a single in mind to record, and that's going to happen relatively soon. I'll keep everyone updated as to what's going down. After all, that's what I'm here for.

09 Feb 2008- Promotional Photo Shoot
The only people I would ever get out of bed for at 7:50 in the morning are my boys in Countless Hours.
Bob, Aaron, and Hunter called me, and told me to get out of bed. I was being kidnapped two hours earlier than planned. I get out the door by 8:00AM and we get ourselves energy drinks at Albertson's. Hunter gave up "caffeinated beverages" for lent. He really loves Jesus, this guy needs two Monster in the morning to get to ASB on time.
Anyways.
We dilly dally around Aaron's house, and I get to do hair and pick outfits. Aaron actually picked his own clothes, I just added the necklace, which is his sister's london coin. Thank you, Katie.
By 10:oo, we leave for the Ventura Pier.
Note: It is the most gorgeous california winter day ever. A sweet seventy degrees, and I'm with my favorite band in the world at the beach. Nothing really beats this.
We leave the pier around twelve and get ourselves some Habit. Bob Lamm gets kudos for buying me french fries. Hunter takes us to the park by his house, and it is incredibly scenic. I mean, completely gorgeous. The pictures turned out great. And we all had a totally bomb time.
