Acoustic Action

The kind caring people over at the Queen's Red Cross (society? club? group? association? cult?) somehow got our name and asked us to play at their coffee house. So, Tuesday November 29th, around 10:00 pm, we shall play. The gig is on campus at Alfie's (yeah, the underground place). See you on the 11:20 boat back to the island. There's talk of a gig at the Island Grill - maybe Ian's bass-playing friend will be up-to-speed by then. Take care.

The Wheel Falls Off

It is sad days (zad dayz?) for the flyz.

Brent "The Wheel" Ferris has left the band. I know, I know, it's a shock to learn that he actually was in the band. But I guess since he took the time to quit, he must have been. I sort of remember seeing him at a show. . . Didn't he show up late? But we'll miss him.

All kidding aside, Brent was truly the main reason that The Flyz ever became a real band in the first place. Back when the Flyz were just a side-show in the Radical Dudez extravaganza, Brent was always jazzed about learning the songs. I'll have to ask him how the 2nd guitar parts go. I never had to worry about remembering them before - Brent somehow remembers every guitar part he's ever played. Ask him to play any Oasis song.

So, a fond fairwell to Brent. Oh, and Nick's moving to Montreal.

Ah, shit.

Well, all the good stuff I said about Brent, that goes for Nick too. And Nick is generally on time. And can swear like a sailor.

So, uh, anyone play the guitar or bass?
