It has been a weird summer; stifling hot and chillingly cold, wet and dry and all within days of each other (or on the same day). Here at the Rebel Wheel HQ buried deep in the farm-land of the North Ottawa Valley, things are progressing quite nicely. We had written a plethora of tunes and we have finally decided which will be used for the album. There is only one Alex tune that needs to be finished but other than that everything is ready to record. Finally. I was hoping to be done in July but there were a lot of events (cool and uncool) that made that impossible. I won't detail the uncool events (LOT'S of that in earlier posts), but one of the cool ones was Andrew and his dad rode the Tour De France bike rally route together. Hills and dales baby, hills and dales. They are both in amazing shape and had an amazing time.

We have been asked to play an Aug 15th gig at the Avant-garde Bar in Ottawa along with two other bands (L'Orchidee Cosmique and Chloe Dances In Twilight) and are rehearsing a few of the new songs for that gig. Here is a poster Flo from the L'Orchidee band put together. We all love it. Noisy Prog Fuzzy Gig indeed!

 
Well that's all the news that fits, lest I go into bent finger pointing mode again, so we will end it there. Play safe, have fun, be decent.
