The Band

It's official. GirlontheMoon is a band.

Yesterday was our first rehearsal with all four components, drums, guitar, bass and vocals. We rocked 10 songs. TEN songs on our first rehearsal. (happy face here). I know, I'm such a girl. We met on Wednesday last week to discuss the song list, and ended up jamming in my kitchen with accoustics and Jeff banging wooden spoons on my tile countertop. It was GREAT! I made a suggestion (actually a plea) asking the guys to listen to one of my favorite songs. It's practically an unknown lost song of The Pretenders called "I'm a Mother". Chrissy Hinds wails and pants in this song while the guitars play low and dirty...it is...ummm...exciting! After I played it for them they all said, "Let's do it!" I was stoked! Well, they weren't kidding. When I showed up Saturday, they were ready to play my favorite song. I fumbled through it the first time, but by the second round I was wailing and panting just like Chrissy Hinds. Andy took the ball and ran, playing an extended guitar solo that would have brought the house down (if we had one). I almost cried...hahaha, but I didn't!

I didn't know that making a dream come true would actually taste so SWEET. But it is certainly, DELICIOUS!

Thanks Andy, Jeff and Bruce for working so hard to put GirlontheMoon on the map.
