Jade calls it a day...

Unfortunately our erstwhile naughty keyboardist Jade, has decided to call it a day with the band.

Further studies are making it difficult for her to continue meeting up regularly, and here in the band we make it a point that rehearsals are an important part of our setup. Maybe a little into the future she can re-think her position out. In the meantime we wish her the best of luck.

So where does this leave us? Simple really. We have had a pow-wow, and decided to go on our way as we are, without a keyboard player. There are a number of reasons for this.

1. We are soon to be going out live again, as we awake from our winter slumber, and glory in the wildlife that is summer!

2. Training a new keys to our old songs is difficult. They are so complicated that it will take a lot of time to get to them.

3. We rather like the harsher, heavier sound we are producing.

So, this also means we simply have to remove Cross of Fire from our set-list. Pity, as this is my favourite track of them all....damn!

Talking about tracks, we have done cover versions of two beautifulclassic tracks, obviously 'stillbornizing' them in the progress....and they sound brilliant!

More on that later then...
