Something to think about.

Some people think that one can become a buddha through meditation. This is wrong. The potential for Buddhahood is within your own nature. If it were true that Buddhahood depended on meditation, then if you stopped meditating after you became a buddha, you would become a common person again. The objective of practice is to be in accord with the natural way, so that your true nature can manifest itself. Just practice according to the methods taught by the Buddha and do not worry about being a success.

Just another day in paradise.

We know, it's been a long time. We have been working hard on the Corporate T-shirt record and it's due to be released September 18th!!! The mixes are done, now off to mastering. All I can say is we like it. We hope you will to. It's a stressful time around here seeing our baby handed off to the public, we will miss her.

Singer guy from Bullet 2 Black came by and laid down some backing vocals for there song Screaming Freedom. He was late. He got lost. He stayed for 10 minutes. Weird. They want a ton of stuff done for this one song, it will take some time to sort it all out.

Another group Mercy Screams recorded a tune a few weeks ago. The SBS animal contingency was scared to death of these guys! It's headed for a compliation CD due to be released sometime/somewhere. There are 4 bands we recorded for this so far. We are wondering what the future holds for the CD, guess we will see. We are in the 2nd mix revision for these tunes, and should be completed by the end of next week.


We started tracking a new band, Ash and the Standing. Amazing voice Ash has, and the band is just the tops. Really good people, we're hoping we can do them justice. Just watch out for Bongo Fury!! They will be putting out a 6 song something er other soon.

The "actual" SBS guitar cocktail lounge has been making progress as far as an album goes. Bucky Chairsteppin "stepped" in and laid guitar tracks and vocals for a song called "This is my life". Herman from Little Blue Pill has done some vocal work on it as well, and it's turned into a duet of sorts. We would like Clay from Corp. T. to do some vocals on the chorus parts, and Higgs Boson from SBS will be on bass and drums more than likely. Higgs will also be locked in the st
udio the September 12th and 13th to do the two acoustic guitar only songs going on the album.

Speaking of Higgs, did we introduce him yet??
OK, there he is. Go Higgs, Go.






In other news, Little Blue Pill has a new finished song out, called Short Bridge. Look for it, you will be glad you did. First tune with "Little Drummer Boy Danny". LBP seems to go through drummers like crazy. Wonder why? Well, here are a few:

1. How can you tell when your drummer is at the door?
When the knocking starts, it speeds up, slows down, speeds up..........

2.
Why are band breaks only 20 minutes?
So you don't have to retrain the drummer.

They call me Higgs.

Ok, it's been awhile. Were busy. The gatekeeper of all things internet has granted us with a new super-duper hydromatic thing-a-ma-jig so we can broadcast once again. It's so fast I can't think of a darn thing to say.
