Well, we basically got rid of the new drummer already. We had him take his stuff away and just told him that we'd be working with a fill-in for the gig on the eighth. He doesn't know it yet, but he is fired. Between his lies; his bitchy, smelly wife; his propensity to not be able to learn the material... we just couldn't take it anymore.
But all that left us without a drummer. Luckily, the fill-in drummer we used the last time that we had a gig and no drummer, "Piper," is filling in again. He seems excited, but we just don't know if he'll last. In the meantime, he'll probably end up recording the drum tracks on the record.
Which is something else that we are furiously worried about. We have pre-orders to fill, and we have already pushed the record's release date back four times. It's now set for Halloween, but... oh my God. I SO doubt that we're going to be able to make that date.
In other news, my book is officially published. Yay, me.
Tomorrow, we are practicing with Piper. It's also football day, but the Steelers have the bye this week, so, you know... whatever. :)
