And Life Slaps Us In The Face With A Wet Fish... Again.

Yep. Just as everything is going well and things are starting to look up for the band, Joe lets us all down by being so hopeless and unorganized that this week alone we had to cancel two out of three gigs, and the third one was only played because of our good friend Shane Husbands, who kindly agreed to step in at the last minute for Meridian Point, for old times sake. Unfortunately, because we hadn't practiced as a band for like 3 weeks (because of Joe, grrrr) and hadn't jammed at all with shane for like 6 months now, maybe even more, the gig was just a little bit shit. Oh well, we enjoyed it anyway because we stopped caring about how bad we were and just had fun and enjoyed it. I even had people come up to me afterwards and say how much they enjoyed it because of it.
Anyway, we are now in the process of looking for another bass player. Hmmm, Dejavu all over again. On the plus side, we went to a kick ass party last night after the gig and got very wrecked. Vodka is a good thing on the night, but man my head is hurting now, lol.

Onward and Upward !

After the success of the first gig at the Velvet Lounge, Meridian Point find them selves not only playing for the Velvet Lounge, but also organizing their Thursday slots for them. Meaning we have to find bands to play and equipment to use every Thursday for them, and they pay us! We would be playing too, but for the next two weeks, lady Flo is in France. But don't frown, we are playing the Marrs Bar on the 8th of August, then the Velvet Lounge again on the 9th of August, then the Youthcomm on the 11th! So, plenty of gigs and stuff going on when she gets back.
Oh, and by the way, a film crew who are currently doing some work for the BBC want to come and film us playing at the Marrs Bar on Wednesday the 8th, which should be interesting.
Anyway, for now thats just about it.........

Times A' Changing........

Its true! I know it has been a wile since one of my posts, but thats just cos I've been busy. Basically, since I last posted a lot has happened; The Cobweb Dilemmas have moved on and found another drummer. They wanted me to concentrate on my work with Meridian Point because we both knew that was where I belong.
Secondly, Meridian point have been doing well for them selves. We've basically got the owners of the Velvet Lounge interested in our stuff, and they want us to do a weekly spot there. We are playing this Thursday 19th of July as a first one off gig, if were successful, there will be a contract involved at the end of it. But I will keep ya'll posted.....
Oh yeah, also I'm now single. Hannah basically cheated on me, then left me for the guy who she cheated on me with. But fuck her, I'm better off without her anyway!

Our Chance To Shine !

Well since my last update, I have the finished Cobweb Dilemmas demo which is of course available on myspace at myspace.com/cobwebdilemmas so go and have a listen.
In other news, Meridian Point have been offered to do a very high publicity gig on may 11th at Worcester Rugby Club at Sixways. We are being hired by Npower and it is a charity ball event (i think anyway) but we have been asked to play from like 8pm until about 1am. :S It will be fun, but a hell of a lot of work because this is the biggest thing we have done, and with everything, preparation is everything. I dont know all the details yet, so ill keep ya'll informed.

Update...

Well, its been so long since my last post and a lot has happened. Firstly, I turned 20 a week or 2 ago, and it feels like shit to be in my twenties! :(
Secondly, the meridian point demo is available for listening to at www.myspace.com/meridianpoint so enjoy! I do apologize for the poor recording/mixing quality, it was recorded in a dingy basement and mixed solely by our guitarist, which isn't a good combination! hehehe...
Anyway, my other band, Cobweb Dilemmas, are recording our demo on the 27th and 28th of jan in Rich-Bitch recording studios in birmingham. This one is being professionaly recorded, mixed and mastered so as long as the performance and the actual music on the CD is good, it should be a fairly good listen. This can be found at www.myspace.com/cobwebdilemmas as soon as its done.
Anyway, I will try and keep you updated............
Peace out xx
