We formed a band, oh yes, we did (not my own title, YES, I KNOW)  
So – this has actually happened. After the unfortunate try to get to the Pirmā Plate #3 contest, getting the 16th place out of 19, when only 9 bands were selected for the finals, we now are really determined to play together.

Why? It means music, our own music, fun, relaxation as well as the best way, to my mind, to improve our musical skills. What I like and appreciate the best is the nice environment among us, free thought, a great deal of laugh, but over them all stands the music we make. I really like it. Yes, we need a lot of improvement, actually, lots and lots of improvement, in the way we play, yet I like the tendencies in the style our music resembles. Although right now the definite style is just starting to emerge from our fantasy and musical imagination, and composing abilities. I think that when we get better at playing it will be something in between rock, ska and rock’n’roll. Anyhow, I can not tell that accurately now.

So, right now I am trying to find a used electric guitar, so we could start serious repetitions. Since the acoustic guitar is almost completely useless in the recording studio, and the way we would like to sound needs the electric guitar. Yesterday my ex-classmate visited us in one of the repetitions, and with her agreement now we have a drummer. It will be a good practice for her as well, no matter she has been playing only for a month.

Yes. We have formed a band. Unfortunately, it does not have a name yet, since we decided that the name we used to name our band in the contest of Pirmā Plate is not quite appropriate. But that will come later, when we get to know what we have really made up.

The next step is to start proper repetitions, improving the songs we already have. Then we would be able to bake our first real record. The first bit of the fame, eh?
