I woke up this morning with black fingernail polish and wondered what the heck I’m doing.
But our band’s colors are black and red and we are slowly getting our look together, which entails dressing in the colors and painting the nails to match.
Music is a performance art, and a very visual one, so having the right look is also key to being successful. We have made about 35 songs so far since becoming a band about a year and a half ago, and if we can keep pushing we will have almost 100 songs in another year. The local HVAC company is going to have us do a big show at a convention they are hosting in a few months, which will be really cool because they are expecting 500 people to show up. We’ve played in bigger arenas before individually, but this will be our biggest as a band. When I was a cooling worker maybe ten years ago I was playing in concert halls with 700 people, so performing for a large group isn’t a big deal for me. But I can’t imagine what it feels like to play for huge groups of 50,000 or more like some of these rock bands. Anyway, today is a clean my washable HEPA filter day and also a day of washing my heated floors, as it has been a while since I did any chores around the flat and it is getting a bit dirty in this place. There is some dust on the floors and I also have to run the robot vacuum cleaner.
