Hometown Blues: Part Two.

Its now Monday. Two days since the last thrilling instalment.
We played at Dexters on saturday night. It was fair rubbish. Though the night in general was good as expected. The bands we were playing with, Cardiac and The Paranoid Monkeys, we amazing. Really mind blowing live bands. And as usual the people and staff of Dexters were ace. But no one was there. By the time we took to the stage at about 23.15 the few folk who had been there began to filter out, leaving a few folk stray folk and couple of our friends. We are hugely greatful to those who came down, though in that sort of situation it does feel like a bit of a sympathy fuck, like people come to see you because no one else will. I just pray that one day people will come see us due to loving our music. Though I guess thats up to us to create loveable music.
One day I will crack the marketing code, finding out how to get a load of people into a room infront of us, as I'm sure that given the chance we could blow the minds of many.
Anyway, we take to Aberdeen on Thursday for a gig at The Lemon Tree, which should be a step up from some of the venues we have played over the last couple of months.
AND....in six days, yes six little days, we are going to record four new songs. Four songs that eclipse anything we have done before, and that will hopefully prove to some people that Descartes will fuck you up. Yes we will.
