OK,  I admit it ... I like Bombgirls. 

OK, I admit it ... I find a lack of attention the band gets to be frustrating.

OK, I admit it ... I wish more of you were reading this.

OK, I admit it ... I wish I could play lead guitar.

OK, I admit it ... I wish I were 10 pounds lighter.

OK, I admit it ... I wish I wrote Time Of Your Life.

OK, I admit it ... I miss singing with Shannon.

OK, I admit it ... I was wrong once.

OK, I admit it ... I wish Dave and Margo would comment on The Whiners music.

OK I…Read more

We say it outloud for those who celebrate Christmas: "Merry Christmas" (and especially to Reham, who argues we shouldn't get hung up about being too PC). For those who don't celebrate Santa or Christ or gift giving, or whatever ... happy all the rest!

The end of the year is mastering time with a big push over the next five days to finish up the Whiners and Losers album. The songs are sounding pretty good to us. The album should have some more legs than the first album, We say "should" since the songs are…Read more

Been a whole six months since I wrote a post. In between lots has happened! First and most stunning is that Jamie is now in Calgary! Indeed, that has and will have an impact on the band. But, we plan to keep at recordings. The good news is the tracks for "Whiners and Losers" are done and now I just have to get to the final mixes. 

Shouldn't be too long for that so look for an early 2012 release. 

We found one single male bedbug in The Whiners studio shortly after the previous blog and, well, if you've…Read more

So, we have an album out. That's just cool to be able to say that.  The Whiners as a band goes back to 1998 when I (Keith) linked up with an old high school chum to tutor me on guitar.  Playing guitar was something I always wanted to do but never got to. Who better to teach you than someone you hung with? That was good but we have to fast forward 10 years or so later for me to get good enough and persistent enough to get the preverbal shit together and find a partner with a similar mind set to get something…Read more

So, we Whiners are checking our lists and files more than a few times to make sure everything is a go for Happy Accident.

I know several musicians who proof read their materials over and over and over and still ended up with mistakes once released. That's what I fear will happen with us!  So, I've been reluctant to throw the switch, give the green light and let these babies go.

But why do I say fear is the same as being risk adverse? Anything you do is going to have some risk attached to it and if you…Read more

Anyone remember Dana Carvey on the premier of an all new cast SNL show? It was years ago now.  Sigorney Weaver was the host and she, Carvey and Phil Hartman (RIP) were in a sketch about a record company taking a chance on a singer/songwriter who'd become somewhat wasted over the years (Carvey).  Derek Stevens I think the character's name was.

Anyhow, the character was supposed to have finished a new album for the execs to hear.  He hadn't and started improvising on the spot some of the "new" tracks he had…Read more
