“Oh, you know…just another band looking for a hired gun,”
I replied with a smirk.
She rolled her eyes and said, “Right…” with no lack of
sarcasm.
To this day I can still shrug my shoulders in the midst
of a band conversation, say “Don’t ask me.
I’m just the hired man,” and effectively annoy the hell out of all them.
Anyway, that band eventually took the name Four Horse
Johnson, and with the exception of a 2 year “hiatus,” we’ve been playing
together in one form or another ever since.
It was in 2008 that we entered the recording studio at Sparta Sound (a
deconsecrated church in Sparta Location between Eveleth and Gilbert Minnesota )
to record our first CD “Transmission,” and just last night we were back to
begin work on our 2nd CD. Between
the 4 bands with which I’ve performed since 2007, this will be my 6th
recording project. Last night went
surprisingly well, and I plan to post recording updates here from now until the
completion of our CD tentatively named (according to me) “Carbon Monoxide Sea
Shanties.”
