"In on the action in Velvetland"
Disclaimer: This post contains no fooling, April or otherwise.
Last night Calvaire (well, 80% of Calvaire, specifically), strolled over to Rancho Relaxo to witness the unveiling of the Avenue's new EP, "How the Story Goes". For those of you who don't know, Jerry Velvet spent the lion's share of 2006 recording and producing this effort. 12 months of blood, toil, tears, and sweat from the band embodied in one little plastic disc. $10 got you admission and your very own copy of the EP. $4.75 got you a pint of Amsterdam Blonde which is quite the deal. Anyway, the bar was filled with dozens upon dozens of Avenue supporters who lapped up the show as eagerly as they did the pints. Jerry Velvet's name and contact info were exchanged with many eager clients wanting to get 'in on the action in Velvetland'.
The Avenue are very proud of their work, but no more proud than Jerry himself.
Lots and lots of photos of the event are available for viewing on Facebook (so become a friend if you haven't already... get with the times...).
Calvaire were happy to support their friends in the Avenue and hope to see them at events for years to come. Inter-band projects have been going on for years, and many a drunken idea was spewed from one person to another, surely spawning countless albums to be made...
As for Calvaire, we'd say the record is 85% complete. Once the album is out, you will refer to all periods in your life to BCE and CE (before Calvaire era, and Calvaire era, respectively.)
As for Elm Hawks, Jerry, Filip, Frank, Nick, and Chris have decided to scrap pretty much all the work they have done and begin anew. Jerry and Chris have begun to really put every aspect of the project under the microscope to sculpt out the perfect record from start to finish. This ain't gonna be half-assed. Time must be taken, and there is lots of time in the future.
I love every one of you that reads this (please comment)
