Bottom Drawer, a classic rock, contemporary country, pop, 6-piece band!!! Yes, I auditioned today and was unanimously voted into the band after just two songs.
We then played for another 2+ hours. I think I won them over when we played Guns N Roses, Sweet Child of Mine (one of my favorites). We then played a whole bunch of stuff from Rare Earth, Get Ready to Carrie Underwood, When He Cheats, ZZ Top, Goo Goo Dolls, even Judas Priest, You Got Another Thing Comin'. They just kept throwing songs at me and, although I flubbed a few fills, missed a few endings, blew a few beginnings and dropped a few transitions, it was a great 2 hours of playing and it felt good to be back behind the set playing with a bunch of live humans! Our first gig (a paid one) is July 21 and we'll probably practice a couple of times before then. I can't wait!!!
