Important Update

Hey, I remembered how to sign in here. I apologize, dear readers, for the lapse in important Ve updates. I shall try to not let it happen again.

Tomorrow we have a dayjam scheduled (not to be confused with the more common nightjam). It will be good to get together and work some more on new material for the upcoming album. Yes, you heard it here first: there will be a third Ve album. It will be called "Roughing It in the Lunar Psychosomatic Badlands" and will be released some time in 2013. Maybe on a Friday the 13th.

We have one song pretty much locked in. Except for lyrics. Charles and I both sing, and neither of us know what the other sings. Mine are sort of placeholder lyrics, but they might stick around. The song is not named yet, but you'll know it when you hear it because it's the one that starts with us playing a B together. Or it probably starts with Matt doing some sort of cool drum thing, then us playing a B together. Matt often does cool drum things. In the dark. With his hands. Both of them.

Actually, that is not the first song for the new album. Those of you who attended our last couple of high-potency gigs will remember a super-smash new hit called Musicians and Magicians, which is the best song we've ever written in D tuning. Or one of the best. Easily top 25 ever. I don't sing on it; I play bass. Loudly. With a yellow overdrive pedal. Yeah, it's some good songage.

In addition to those two songs for the new album, Matt has suggested a couple that we're working on, and Charles has at least one more we're trying to flesh out. We all like it, but haven't quite pieced it together. The latest rendition featured Charles playing the old piano in the basement, with Matt on acoustic guitar, and me singing quietly to myself in mostly the wrong places. We had a rather disgusting working title for the song, but now we've forgotten it.
