CreepBeat Joined: Feb 25, 2016 Posts: 242 Seattle, WA	Posted on Mar 07 2016 07:54 PM Three new ones for the next record. Working titles are: Creep Out! Night Surf / Square Waves from Planet 13 The Lurker (oh sh*t look out! ) ...and a cover of Bedlam probably just for the live set?

eddiekatcher Joined: Mar 14, 2006 Posts: 2776 Atlanta, GA	Posted on Mar 07 2016 10:50 PM Gee Ivan, we really appreciate that, thanks a lot. We have been laughing our butts off over that one too. Nobody much picked up on the Album title but maybe this one will hit home. I've been working on this angle lately that if I name a new original something off the wall, maybe the guys in the band will remember how it goes......... Or at least how it starts, what key it's in.......hell, I'm easy to get along with. The good humor band rides again. ed — Traditional........speak softly and play through a big blonde amp.

So I'm working on the chorus melody which is basically 2 notes (E and D, my favorites) and trying to add some variety whist keeping it recognizable and the notes start to shift about like they so often do and a half hour later it's clear it doesn't fit into the song anymore. It's its own thing ie, the seed of another song entirely. So that's what I'm working on- I'll get back to Randy and the boys but this comes first. Couldn't be more different than it's parent song.

After having the good fortune to jam on it with Paul Johnson, I try to knock it off almost every day.

That & Reef Break grabbed me by the throat back when along with some Space Cossacks. One of the things I love about instro surf is that, done right, there is no slacking; if you're not running, the rest of the formation just leaves you behind. Like a sign in my buddy's bass boat, applicable for about 3 minutes: "Get in, sit down, hold-on, and shut up!"

The best part about this thread is that it has been 48 pages of stuff to look up and listen to I mostly wouldn't have known otherwise. Bands like Los Twang! Marvels... WOW!
