A Song of...

As I said in the previous post, I had a rehearsal with my band yesterday. Let him who hath understanding hear the wisdom of my words, for they are... wise? Anyway, here's the commentary.
A few things before we start. I'm going to be referring to the band as Storm, because that's how it was called before some things happened, which we won't talk about here. Why? Because I said so! Buahahaha! There are six of us in Storm: Pero and Spash on guitars, Johny the voice, Josip on bass, Mata on drums, and me on keyboards. Onward.
We started playing The Cult's Lil Devil, which is the 8th song in our repertoire as of now (what, we're a young band!). There are no keyboards in that song, so I improvised my part, and it sounds well. There were a few tricky parts, but all in all, we managed to play the whole thing at the end of the evening. Which is pretty good. Also, we played the other seven songs, an I kind of lost my temper when we had to repeat the ending of Whatever You Want for the hundredth time (figuratively) because of Johny. (Sorry, dude, I wasn't really in the mood. I'll get you a beer next time.) Which reminds me: Spash was drunk. Siriusly, we thought he wouldn't be able to play. We were wrong. Considering how wasted he was, he did really well. I guess it's true that you play better when you're drunk. I'll have to try it some time.
In other news, it looks like I'm going to try out a new keyboard on Tuesday (Korg M1). I know it's old, but it's one of the best keyboards out there, and it would be my first professional one. Really excited about this, let me tell ya. More on this in later posts.
And that's all for now, I think, until next time...

Introductory Post

Hi everyone! So, as the title suggests, this is the introductory post! (You there in the back, I here you grumbling something like, "Shit, he's going to talk for ages about his awesome accomplishments/terrible sorrows.") I say to you, do not leave. I am not going to talk about myself (at least not in this post). This post is just for this blog to have something of a beginning, even though there are neither beginnings nor endings... And I digress. Which is probably going to happen a lot, btw.
My personal information is in my bio, for anyone who cares to read it. I also have a few other dens on the interwebs: follow me on twitter @darth_luceus, and check out my author page on Smashwords (I'll begin publishing soon).
And, I think that's enough for now. I'm going to a rehearsal with my band, so expect a report from it in the next post. (There might be some videos, as well!)
