musical amateur night
Chris and I have been getting together to play more frequently lately, exploring the musical ideas we cooked up in our old Musical Amateur Night sessions. Tonight we improvised six songs. They aren't named yet, but the instruments we used were as follows:
1: 2 wineglasses & the Octave Cat
2: 4 wineglasses & the Octave Cat
3: gong & welding metal
4: taped percussion, turntable, tin whistle, 2 wineglasses & hand bells
5: plastic recorder & thumb piano
6: drum & acoustic guitar
It was fun to play with Chris, as always. I ended up feeling like we are no longer quite as amateur as we once were; like we are coming closer to producing the kind of music we enjoy as listeners.
We will name these songs next week, probably using our usual stichomantic methods.
We also need a name for the band, as the novelty of changing names every week has worn off. If you have any old band names saved up, feel free to send them my way. Labels: amateurism, number_none, personal, projects |
