Last night I spoke to my brother as over the the weekend from speaking with Mark it sparked and idea. Blaine took to it right away. As there is a marriage which is going to take place here as well as within Los Angelas. Shannon Tweed's sister I spoke and after speaking with Mark there is something which we have never done as a ensemble and Blaine my brother has been thinking on songs as well as if all goes as planned Marc is as well. It it all comes together as planned for one time we are going to have a revival of the band we had called Syracuse.
I have already been to the one studio here as I don't with to place too many eggs in one basket and I usually keep silent on this - especially this yet if all goes well Syracuse the band which I formed along with my older brother shall render back Francaise as well as Bruce. I know tonight that my brother has probably been on the telephone to Syracuse, N.Y. as he is like a kid when things like this come up. So within this month how ironic if it goes as planned. Our old band as well as Marc's band shall come here as Gene Simmons and Shannon Tweed will be here to be married. Shannon's sister lives here and after a call now it's a time to plan. I have spent more time on the phone during the day - getting all things in some form of a schedule. Francaise hopefully is a go and Bruce I have yet to know where he as he became a radio dj for the longest in Calgary. Within this week I will know the date that this wedding is taking place and it will be the neatest thing within the world to have an ensemble of our band as well as Marc's band. When I was talking to Marc last night he couldn't believe that Gene and Shannon would be getting married here as well after talking to my brother. We thought of the pros and the cons. I have done some productions and the odd playing. Yet within the band that we had it was big and we were much younger. Blaine is all for a go and I am as well but the next stage is to find one old member of the band or just replace him. So all going well it would be the coolest thing to play as a band again - as well as play with a band which we influenced as kids as well - to play in practice with two of the original members of KISS well it's not a dream. Yet it does take work from a production side. Blaine in the band played drum, Francaise played bass, Bruce played lead guitar, and I played rhythm guitar couple with vocals. This is a once in a life time experience and if all goes as planned. There are more in arrangements as I always produced everything which I might outsource this time to another. So when I arrived home I called those which I have already spoke too and now I await the word with a few things. But come this weekend with all going well I will be within a studio here with Francaise and hopefully if all goes well within the next two days we will find where Bruce is and then it's all on. We as a group played a combination of songs yet we were inspired by the Beatles, INXS, and KISS. As well I have some of my own songs and Blaine does. So musically we will be doing some thing digitally.
How funny it was as my older brother was elated - beyond that. So here there will be two bands as well as if all goes as planned Paul Stanley shall be apart of this and I feel like I was 13. I kid you not. So there are things which from here through the week with getting things set up. It's allot of work but it's fun. I may very well hire one person to help me organize things. But I have to tell you this is within a dream of a lifetime and this is truly where the "Why Not" comes into play.
For three days I have been making plans and organizing what's called a critical schedule. But to be back in a studio this shall be too much fun. So imagine a band from here, a band from or old home town as well as members of KISS with the exception of Gene........I still don't believe this has come about and with no doubts this shall be recorded on video as well as on audio.
I am not a dreamer nor am I a kid but this is a once in a lifetime and it shall be a big benchmark if this all does work out. I can't begin to tell you how elated I am. Yet I guess dreams do or can come true.....give me two weeks and if all works out over the next three days.
Bingo!

ReplyDeleteHow fantastic for you.
ReplyDeleteI didn't have time to read the whole thing as I have to get to bed.
We know a famous musician through his brother. My husband is buddies with the brother to Brian Greenway of April Wine.
Also, I believe my favourite band opened for Kiss. My favourite band is Rush.
Or perhaps, I should say one of my favourite bands.
I love a lot.
David Bowie, Rush, Pink Floyd, Led Zepplin, I love Gene Simmons not to mention Neil Young.
Good luck with getting your band back up and running.
It's in the making already and not kidding Caroline...
ReplyDeleteErika I am reserve on here but I am not kidding with this one there are some other pictures which I have never placed on here yet yesterday
ReplyDeleteMarc from Syracuse had found five newsprints of the band which was that of mine. My brother and Francaise were Beatles, Bowie and all
that era where as I and Bruce where more into KISS and that entire timeline. I think in addition to this we need to get wigs. :)
Yet I am not kidding with this Shannon is from here and this is much too cool. So all said within a month lets see where
this goes! :)
Five days ago this was just getting started - I kid you not.

ReplyDeleteA few of the old band which was called "Syracuse".
I hope it all comes together seamlessly:)
ReplyDeleteBy Thursday it shall or it might not - yet within the making it's been enjoyable to say the least.
ReplyDeleteExciting to have plans in the works...
ReplyDeleteMet with Bryan Adams' first producer during lunch and it's been fun thus far.
ReplyDeletevery cool!
ReplyDeleteYeah well he was his first producer not one that produces Bryan Adams currently yet a fine guy.
ReplyDeleteVery good! With your skills, this should meld together as planned.
ReplyDeleteSounds like fun.
ReplyDeleteJust arrived on here Grammy and all considered I hope that today went well for you.
ReplyDeleteThis may today was within this studio of choice and I feel like a kid again. And Monday
is one more vocal test in the studio...
DJ I can't begin to explain how fun this is right now within the
ReplyDeleteprocess. As it's truly something which brings the inner child out.
I am conservative but all said right now in the planning as well as
today deciding the one audio studio after a few tests....I had more
enjoyment and seems that within the process it's simply FUN.
Dreams can come true!
ReplyDeleteI believe so Tess. Dreams are that of which we make that of which is rendered. When someone says it's can't be done, there has always been someone which has done what some said couldnt be done in any avenue of life.
