How was your show?

On balance, not bad
Due to the arrangement of the stage, our drummer couldn't hear our amps and so the timing was a bit ropey in places. It's also hard to sing a slow blues number with much feeling when you're painfully aware that the bottom string of your bass has slipped out of tune.

Still, the audience seemed to enjoy it, which is the important thing. My friend filmed most of our set, and, watching it back, it didn't actually sound too bad out the front-of-house, so I won't complain.

You guys do blues?

Yup
Edit: Well, blues-rock is probably more accurate.

Way cool.
If ever I go back to the UK, I'd love to come see you play. Or if you make it big and come out here I'd love to see you play.

Tell you what
There's some ropey live recordings from a few years back on our myspaz. (We really should put something fresh up there...)

Best of all the rocks.

That it is
I do believe the decline in popular music after 1975 can be at least partly attributed to a lack of blues.
